Once again, a very cool deal from EVGA. No wonder EVGA is so popular. That is the last Boddaker build in Mods Rig showing, quite a beauty!! I am curious on the 2666 memory ,what is the quantity?

I honestly forgot all about it. But you do raise a good point. I figured with the chance to win some awesome hardware from EVGA this thread would be active all the time.

I was thinking about this the other day, what's the status on this project, has the first month's winner/sponsor been chosen yet?

at the risk of wrath from double posting, any update on this program? I see it's been over a month and no one seems to have been selected, has the program been canceled? edit: I stand corrected, first winner is announced, congrats to Jonathan Garlit!

I have a feeling this isn't gathering as much attention because it isn't a straight giveaway. It actually requires someone to do a build log and document what they do with everything; it also requires having already had some sort of build log done beforehand.

I still haven't been able to complete my entire build log, lol. I have been working on it for 2 years.

Awesome to see EVGA offer this. I entered because I am looking to move out of the 2011 platform very soon and get back to EVGA motherboards. Their support makes it hands down the better option. This program would definitely be nice to be picked for.

I will enter again because it gives a reason to start a new build, and the motivation to complete it before adding another upgrade. That is the issue with my main PC, is that I love upgrading and never take enough time to finish between upgrades. I doubt my reasoning will ever be good enough for my ideas to be picked.

Too bad I wont win because I dont have ANY social media accounts such as facebook, twitter, instagram ect.. to advertise EVGA if I were to win any products.  Of course EVGA is going to want to choose some one that has all those so they can give free product placement on their personal social accounts. The closest thing I have to social media is a steam account and of course my forum account here on EVGA. Who ever wins enjoy your awesome hardware.

Wonder when we'll set the second month's winner, and if there's a build posted yet by the first month's winner.
Also, is there any way to uh, un-enter the contest? Or do I just wait and decline if by some odd chance I win?

A better question would be did he even realize he had been selected and contact EVGA?

I can't believe the amount of giveaways EVGA does. It's truly amazing how good they are too their followers and customers. I'm building a computer for a friend and he's getting an EVGA psu and GPU.

Oh wow, this is embarrassing. I have not seen a thread mentioned my name that many times! And yes, I was the first winner of the Gear up program. There was a little back story to it and I just literally knew that I was selected more than a week ago and I just did posted a few work logs last night. And Zophar, you're correct dude. I didn't even realized it. :P Here's my build log that I made last night over at ModsRigs: http://forums.evga.com/Work-in-Progress-Dark-Samurai-m2472621.aspx
I would like to apologize for anyone who waited for the work log to be put up. Wish me luck!

I have to give it to my bro when he insisted I get EVGA in the early 2000's due to their warranty services. he was right, and I will continue with EVGA. They are the greatest company to go with. (Hence my signature )

Unless you can give evga lots of exposure, i doubt you will ever be chosen to be sponsored. The first sponsor was chosen IMO, due to the exposure he could give evga. It wont surprise me one bit if some at mnpctech is picked as the next person to be sponsored.

I'm not sure who this was in direction to... soooooo... I'm just going to say that people need to know why EVGA is a better choice than other companies. And, I don't think people do.

Page linked in the OP has been updated. I think it looks much better than it did originally. Still looking forward to the first winners mod/build, and the mods/builds to follow.

It was directed at "gear up with EVGA" which is evga trying to get publicity for something they have already been doing. This isn't a "giveaway" like some people think. Unless you can give evga the exposure they want, chances of being picked are very slim. EVGA not always the better choice when it comes to motherboards. They don't have the selection or same features other mfg offer. That doesn't mean EVGA a bad company, they just don't offer what every customer wants.

I don't think anyone said this was a "giveaway". But you are correct, this definitely not a giveaway. You have to demonstrate you have something that will put EVGA out there. I see this as an opportunity for an unrecognized modder/builder to get their name out there as well as EVGA. The Bill Owens ( MNPCTECH), and Bob Stewart ( BS Mods) don't need something like this to get hardware. But the guy just starting out with a build log here or there definitely does need a little help to get out there. It is still an excellent opportunity for anyone to enter. And who knows you might have an idea that will intrigue who ever picks the recipients. I entered even though I know I have a snowballs chance in hell at being picked. I don't do and serious "modding" but I do change things up on every build I do.
