The T's&C's state that it's running till the 25th May, not the 26th as you've stated.

azrael- 5th May 2009, 11:55

Is it open only to residents in the UK? The article doesn't say so, but the link in the forums does.

Because it was meant to go live yesterday, but Germany didn't realise it was a UK holiday so they delayed and extended it a day.

Yes, Enermax has had local competitions with various websites across the net as they relaunch their sites. Recently they did a German one with a German site. They want local readers/buyers because of the questions in the Survey - we represent UK :)

Blademrk 5th May 2009, 13:45

entered.

Bindibadgi 5th May 2009, 13:52

Also - I hand built this bad boy so whoever wins better appreciate my late night labours!!

I might post the heatsink in a separate box though - dont want the TRUE ripping itself out during transport. I'll have to find a big box for all the component boxes too ;)

So, again, if you're living in one of those insignificant little countries like Denmark you're SOL... :(

Ah well... it's probably a crap rig as it is... :p

Because you just know it'll get stripped and sold by whomever wins it... :p

pizan 5th May 2009, 14:21

I like the Enermax fans. I'm using 8 Cluster fans on my i7 build (if i can ever get it running and not leaking)

If by some unfortunate twist of fate I ended up with it, don't be surprised if the component boxes get returned to sender >.>

Also, I'd appreciate some blood, sweat and tears on the inside of the case! Makes everything a bit more personal :B

Unfortunately since I am across the pond I cannot enter, but i do think it is cool that BT is in charge with the building of the PC.

BTW,

Might check with whoever ends up winning if they actually want all those boxes, because I for one certainly would not appreciate having to deal with them, of course, it won't stop me from entering the draw either, small price to pay for a potential large gain.

ComputerKing 6th May 2009, 09:51

Why only UK ??? i want to join too :( not fair.. I want to win :(

Dreaming 6th May 2009, 10:09

Hope I win!!

Something I wondered though. Does this "media partnership" mean in future if Enermax sends you something for review you will rave about it even if it's just average? Or is it just this one off system build?

Because one of the things I love about bit-tech is it's journalistic excellence and also integrity in "telling it like it is". (Except when you're wrong, see http://www.bit-tech.net/blog/2009/05/05/i-played-diablo-2-and-i-hated-it/ :p)

We work with dozens of companies to offer the best opportunities for our readers, but a product is a product. If it's shite - other people will use it, say it's crap, and we'll be called on it. If it's good, it's very good. It just so happens I love the Enermax Revolution PSUs (because they *are* very good), however I keep butting heads with German office because we always see them as too expensive.

Any news on who one this?

azrael- 13th June 2009, 23:19

Did I win? If not, why?

unklepepper 26th June 2009, 10:48

I got an email from Enermax the other day saying I won 2nd prize, a Revolution 85+ 1050W.

Yay for Enermax & Bit-tech.

Congrats to the 1st prize winner.

Sir Digby 26th June 2009, 11:36

Congrats!

Although I guess that means I didn't win anything :(

simonw 26th June 2009, 15:54

unklepepper - well done!

This competition ended a while ago, they said they were going to post the winners on their website, still don't see it though.

I guess I also didn't win anything if I didn't receive any email. Oh well!

Thanks, that's me. I wish!

Pookeyhead 27th June 2009, 11:16

NOthing on website regarding who won... I never got an e-mail, so it wasn't me... unless my spam filter killed it, and I did... how annoying not to announce winners.

Im waiting for Enermax, I've asked already, but they want to make sure the winners reply to emails/phone and accept first I think.

Blademrk 29th June 2009, 13:44

well, I haven't received any emails or PMs (phone calls I can't be sure, have always screened phone calls and we've been getting a lot of hang-ups with no messages lately). So in other words, don't think it's me either...

liratheal 2nd July 2009, 11:40

I managed to read the second and third place winners as Peter Jackson and wtf'd.

GZ guys.

Abhorsen 2nd July 2009, 13:39

Jealous :P

Gryphon 2nd July 2009, 15:23

Slight bias towards names beginning with P there... couldnt you have used my middle name ??? :'(

Congratz tho guys, the rest of us are turning green :P

C-Sniper 2nd July 2009, 19:37

*******s :p

Congratulations to the winners and may you know you are making many other people jealous.

MiNiMaL_FuSS 2nd July 2009, 20:29

did you choose the winners from all the emails sent by people with names beginning in 'P' or what?

ry@n 4th July 2009, 00:22

No offence to the winner but its always new people with <10 posts that win competitions, seen it on many forums.

Congrats all the same :)

unklepepper 6th July 2009, 23:18
