I have been stuck for ages on 8 and my fingers have mild signs of frostbite, so far it seems luck is not on my side this year: on the bright side the events are fun.

So I have a friend I met through addiction recovery a year ago. She has two kids one is 17 and is a serious football star, and her younger one (12 years) is autistic and a PC gamer. Unfortunately most of her past boyfriends were always doting on the older one, because in Oklahoma an upcoming potential pro is a big deal, but they wouldn't care about the younger one's "silly gaming hobbies". But I met her younger son, just as a friend of his mothers and we just clicked, and honestly he's one heck of a gamer, and I blew his mind when i said, "ya I can build a custom PC" so I told him to save his money and I would help him pick parts then build it for him. Now PC building was a hobby of mine, but my last build was a 775 slot q6600 with a 8800GTX, then addiction took 9 years of my life and money. I am however clean now and back and built asus crossair V MOBO with an FX -9590 (no boost so it sits at 4.7 per core) 16gb (2x8gb) ddr3 corsiar 2400mhz ram 500gb Toshiba sshd and 128 gb pny ssd 2xEVGA 970 SSCs in SLI Coolermaster 240mm AIO NCIX s370 case Now however in the next 3 months I am moving to Minnesota and even though he's working to save his heart out little Jordan (his name) has saved only 60 bucks and is really upset that I wont be here to build his system, so I made him a promise when I saw the 18th giveaways, I told him "If I win a system or enough to build one, I will just give you mine" So now I'm doing EVERYTHING i can to win something, AND PLEASE DON'T THINK I WANT SPECIAL TREATMENT. but if by some chance I win something, I have a question. Now like I said I'm running a fx9590 and it loses all stability above 4.7( It was a used chip and and even with that i think the silicon lottery was not the bast with this one) and to be totally honest overclocking has changed A LOT since my 775 days. So I was thinking about putting an FX-8350 in so i could make a good stable machine for him, but with a move budgets are VERY TIGHT, so do you know of any site that would set up trades or where I could work something out (besides craigslist) Sorry for the long post and any ideas would be helpful

If you didn't wanted a special treatment, you wouldn't have posted this. You have a better PC than my current one. You don't know third world problems. I'm doing my work on i3, 8GB Ram, GT 730.

Checkout reddit.com/r/hardwareswap(you can buy and sell) and reddit.com/r/buildapcsales. That's where I've found most my used parts and deals. Btw, you could build him an almost complete pc if you give him one of the 970's, a ram stick, and a hard drive if you don't mind passing it on. a mobo, cpu, case, and psu is all you'd need

You are totally right, how dare I try to get advice on getting parts for an autistic kid with a single mom!

I'm really worried. I uploaded and entered my commercial into the contest on July 25th, but it still hasn't shown up on the commercial event page where all the other entries are. Youtube says it is 29 seconds long, so I couldn't have been disqualified for it being too long, and entries that were uploaded to youtube after mine are displayed on the page. What's going on?

It shows how the badges look on this page https://www.evga.com/18/scavenger/ shows them under the "badges found" section, and under them it says/shows how an incompleted one looks, and a completed one. They will be at the bottom of the webpages once you start looking for them. CianBell, scroll up a little bit. One of the EVGA team members mentions to PM him or one of the others (OP of this thread) about video submission issues.

If this image is the page i linked, then it is not at the bottom. It is right about in the middle of the page. If this is a different random page and there is no badge, then there is no badge on that page. Keep looking.
