here is my sad sad PC... Im TRYING to gather money enough to do some upgrades.. and trying to win new stuff. 
I have already won a new case (the iVektor shown in the pic and the CPU Cooler) and I just won a new PSU (will be weeks before I get it)
 
otherwise.. this bad boy is old. Thief brought it to its knees lol.
 
 
 
ASUS P5Q Pro E8500
Radeon HD 6870
8GB of random ram
3 crappy old HD's (one is like 8 years old)
610 PC Power & Cooling
and my nice new iVektor Case (that has a sticky power button now... its only like a month old.. sigh at least it was free)
 
 
and yes, that second image is my SteelSeries APEX and $8 case logic headset from wallgreens. lol.
Working on my 200 posts.
 
Now, why the +1's? is there a reason for it? does it help to with the "sponsorship"?  Thanks!
 

Could you please read the first post of this topic on page 01, before asking a question you actually could of found out by reading the first post yourself
 
An other thing, if you have don't have a MODS RIGS page, please make one before posting in this topic, many thanks!
 
It has nothing to do with a "sponsership", it's just a fun project Chrome-M-Dragon and I took part of, his idea for such a topic my idea & creation as the MR +1 list goes.
People give each other +1's and comments of their systems, which are called MODS RIGS systems, this is a project Chrome-M-Dragon and I support for EVGA.
This is the list I created and made to support Chrome-M-Dragon's project for this project:
 
 
To set up your MODS RIGS page go here:
 
 
Pics must not be larger that 1000 x 1000 pixels and not larger than 2MB, as the picture uploader clearly describes:
 
Select a file (.jpg/.jpeg, .png, .gif) that is less than 2megs and is no more than 1000x1000 pixels. You may use the tool below to resize and crop your image if you need.
 
   File Size limit : 2MB; File Type : jpg/jpeg, png, gif; 1000x1000 pixels maximum
 
 
So after setting up your MODS RIGS page, post a "url" to it in this topic + some pics of your setup and I will gladly add you in my MR +1 list on page 30 of this thread
 
Maybe Chrome-M-Dragon can explain it better for you, if you don't understand me
 

hmmm...have you read the first post? (maybe im missing it?) Sure it says go +1 everyone.. but doesn't explain what its for and why its needed..? is it just for fun?
Second.. I do have a mod rig page.. Odd. I posted the link??  trying again:  (BuildID=33633)
 
Even if its not needed, I will be cruising through that list to see others builds.. love seeing what people pull off!
 
Thanks!
 
 
 EDIT: Cant link mine yet - havent been a member long enough :(
 EDIT2: Im up to #35 - nice work in there!
 EDIT 3: just keeping track of where I am in the list.. #100

 *ugh* no need to question me there Without my list this topic would not of remained intact.
As creator, designer and maker of the MR+ 1 list, , this topic really lifted off after entering it with the 195 participants that already have posted in the topic.
When I made the list I added each of the 195 members, gave each a +1 and a comment, all in about 4 workdays, after this every participant that wanted to be added , I added them to the lsit by giving each and every member a +1 and a comment, comments have the same value as the +1's as they tell the owner who left them a +1, some people seem to have been lazy and not left a comment, such +1's never count imo.
 
Chrome-M-Dragon copied my list for his post, as my list was most successful for thiis project, the one I made on page 30 is most up to date though.
We both agreed me to continue keeping that list up to tdate, even being on page 30, I always link people to it, so they too can see for themselves that they have been added, +1'ed and given a comment by me So without my MR +1 list this topic would of been much less populated as it is now.
 
So no need to question me this topic's function, I for one know exactly how this works, as creator, designer and maker of it's main function, the MR+1 list on page 30:
http://forums.evga.com/FindPost/1588237
 
My systems are in it as many many others 391 to be exact, mine can be found here:
http://forums.evga.com/FindPost/2127470
 
It's not that I don't mind adding new participants, but at least also leave Chrome-M-Dragon and I a +1 and a comment  Because without me keeping the MR+1 list up to date and Chrome-M-Dragon for keeping this topic intact, this project would of died off long ago and sometimes I get the feeling I have done too much for this all for nothing 
 
Newbies beg for +1's and comments, they even get them , from others as from me as well after I have added them, but still I feel somewhat left out, as if I am doing this all for nothing, even by not receiving all the +1's and comments I should of gotten in the first place long ago, heh

I found the new list.. and will be +1 them (I like to look at systems anyway)
But I guess I am still confused. what is the +1 for? Does it have a real use, or is it just to say.. Ive had [insert number] people like my system?
 
i did find your Valkyrie rig and +1'd it.. very nice... its HUGE!!! lol
still cant link mine.. but heres a picture.

i won the case and cooler (and just won a PSU and another cooler!) but everything else is old.. 3DMark11 ... 3311 lol 
 

ah :) as I thought.  cool.
 
Now what are the ribbons?? lol

Static_FX
ah :) as I thought.  cool.
 
Now what are the ribbons?? lol

The Blue Ribbons are earned if you have made a very good topic about a new and good looking system build, or helping someone with some helpful advice, or making maintenance guids as II have done with some VGA cards like the EVGA GTX 295 Red Editions, EVGA GTX 680 SC Signature Editions or my HD 6990.
You can also get Blue Ribbons while giving people some wise advice with certain things, or posting a mega collection you have obtained, or doing interesting mods to cases, VGA cards,or renovating old PC's and making them like new again.
 
So basically anything that reads as a good interesting topic will get you a Blue Ribbon for sure
Blue RIbbons also have a value of 2 EVGA Bucks each, no matter where you live, this value is always the same, they can be used as discount coins for the EVGA shop, so if you have 12 Blue Ribbons you have 24 EVGA bucks to spend as discount money on something from the EVGA shop
Or you just save them up like I do xD So it's a promotional thing, as poster you receive a Blue Ribbon for your good input, as it's EVGA's way of saying thank you for your good topic

@ hallowen
 
Nice hardware but shame about the case man, I hope you will give this monster a decent case some day.
Anyhow I left you a +1 for this thing you have made, although I am a bit disappointed that there is no case, but yer it is what it is I guess
Also added you in the list:
http://www.modsrigs.com/detail.aspx?buildid=33609
 

Thanks, and While I Appreciate the +1 Gold Leader, Just Attempting to Put All this Hardware in a Case (Even a Very LARGE Case) Would be Very Difficult to say the Least and would be Similar to Telling Kingpin and Other Extreme Overclockers that use DICE/LN2 for Cooling the CPU's/GPU's and MB's to Enclose Their Rigs, which if You have Followed this Ultimate Form of Benching/Overclocking is Highly Unlikely due to the need of having constant accessibility to the Components.

!!! Modrigs crashed!

Well those are totally not acceptable MODS RIGS systems I'd add in my list anyway, to be very honest I find them ugly, boring and they lack style 
Kinda off topic imo, but lol, I can't care what Kingpin has  Heck I don't even know the guy, sorry, but that leaves me cold, even that has little to do with MODS RIGS xD
 
A case is a minimum to enter my list, it's mainly about posting modded systems with at least a case, that hold wonderful builds with neat mods, or just plain builds that show some good cable management.
 
I mean it would be easy for anyone to make a system on a piece of cardboard or a mobo tray of a case even,  although I'd report such a build as a faulty one, quite simple on my end.
 
Aas for JayVenturi? Well to tell you the truth, JayVenturi is a lot like me, Futuremark products are highly inaccurate and the results are always unreliable, they say absolutely nothing on how your system will perform in the game, application or simulator you plan on running it with, so as that goes? Futuremark is totally useless, I never liked it myself anyway
 
So due to that, such over commercialized programs shall never be found on any of my systems nor the ones from JayVenturi and other 2CPU.com friends of mine, we prefer the real stuff and mostly the apps, games or simulations you plan on running have a a much more accurate benchmark utility themselves
 
Although there are a few exceptions such as the following:
 
BarsWF x64 CUDA Client:
http://3.14.by/en/md5
I even have a topic for test results of this cool and accurate testing program, which is here:
http://forums.evga.com/FindPost/1834872
 
Maxon Cinebench 11.5 x64:

Voodooalert's Hx264 Render test:
http://www.xin.at/x264/x264-guide-windows-en.htm
This is a benchmark program a friend of mine from Austria made.
 
And there may be a few more as well, but these are at the least more accurate when it comes to real time performance than anything Futuremark can give, that's for sure :P

OK guys, lets love all rigs regardless of their upbringing :P *jokes* Anyway, I HAVE been keeping an eye on things here and there and will be updating post one. I would like a few PM's regarding what is classified as a mods rig. I do enjoy looking at LN2/exreme cooled rigs, but are they worthy of a MODS RIGS +1? Also, pictures are and still will continue to be a must, even if it's only one (of the inside I hope) Get them images up! NOw i'ma update post one with the full list and we will see what happens from then on!

Well gold leader what is a mods rig if not a modification of a pc. Case or no case (which can be considered a modification) I think it should be allowed. Discrimination against the caseless is wrong, and your right it is a list you made and work hard in, but this project stopped being ours long ago, this is the communities.

With all the square footage you need I think the "Room" qualifies as a suitable case

i kinda think a MODded rig would be any PC thats not pre-built... and while I think the PC's with no case are odd, and not very fun too look at, they still are modified pc's. They should be on the list.
Mine, is not very exciting, but will get better over time (im very new to modding) and all I did was run my wires behind the MB... lame yeah.
 
If you want to get picky, then go through that list and remove the bad links, and the ones that dont have 3Dmark11 scores as required by EVGA? Just my opinion :) 

oh, i agree... COMPLETELY about futuremark.. my last pc was ruined by it. Something went haywire when running it and I wound up starting from scratch and having to re-install everything. I only ran it to get included in the slim chance to win the $1k upgrades. (boy do I need it! lol) Im just glad it didnt crash and completed the "test"
 
 
Now, if anyone is in need of a new build idea... TITANFALL! :) that would make a sweet pc. 

+1 for you mrinfinit3, looks great.

Well......Not to nit pic.....But if you look a bit closer, he does in fact have his setup in a case. Which is modded to house his open setup.
Might not be the prettiest setup on the list, but that is a case.
