------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to this month's Rig-o'-the-Month-Quarter thread! Last month's went very well...and big congratulations to adamelmore on winning! He can't enter again for another six competitions, so now the rest of us have a chance.

Changes to the rules this month:
  • The max number of photos has gone from 3 to 5.
  • This one is a suggestion, not a requirement - List your specs too if you feel so inclined, people like to know what they're looking at.
  • As suggested, we might (still thinking about this one) make a staff pick as well as the general vote for two prizes this month. We'll see. :)

This isn't a 'contest' where you win anything other than bragging rights and getting photos of your system featured on the front page and our Facebook page.

The rules are simple.

  • Post a picture of your system in this thread.
  • Photos must be reasonable sizes - 1000px x 1000px max.
  • Maximum five photos, so choose wisely.
  • The picture must be uploaded to the forum, like so:
    attachment.php
  • If your photo is not uploaded to the forum, your entry will be deleted. If you need help with that, don't hesitate to ask.
  • List your specs too if you feel so inclined, people like to know what they're looking at.
  • Assuming there are plenty of entries, after two weeks'ish, forum staff will decide on the top 3-5 systems out of the submissions.
  • Once the top systems are chosen, a poll will be added to the thread for everyone to vote on their favorite.
  • He or she whose rig is voted the top will have their system featured in a frontpage article and a post on our Facebook page.

This isn't only about how powerful your system is, or how good it looks, or how original, or how whatever...it's all of those things combined. If you don't have a very powerful system but it looks good, post it. If you have an original looking system, post it. If you have a ZOMG look how powerful it is system post it. Anything goes. There are no high stakes, just the honor of having your system posted on the front page and our Facebook page.

Since we hope this becomes a semi-regular thing, winners must sit out the next six Rig o' The ___ contests. You can still post to show people what they should strive for, but they're ineligible to win again for six months.

So let's see it OCF! Enter your systems. Oh, and anyone can enter, so you'd better believe I'm posting too! :bday:

***NOTE that this is for November. Since this month is 1/3rd over already, that will give plenty of time for lots of entrants. Good luck!***

Because the thread wasn't started until a third of the way through the month, it offers more time for entrants and, subsequently, voting. :thup:

Okay I posted my rig almost a month ago. What is going on with this contest? No one has commented, or posted their rigs. When will voting start? Seems like the way it's going I'm going to win by default without any competition.

Also hows my rig? :)
 
BigTerminator, I think your rig is clean. I just built my first rig. You schooled me on how to cable my case. I am going to fix my cabling to be similar to yours and post some pics. I may be a few days, I am busy moving right now. Good job!:thup:
 
Thanks for the bump. I'll post mine when I'm at a pc. Hopefully more folks will participate.
 
I might be able to throw some pics up over the weekend. Possibly a video if I could?
 
Hmm; it appears we're having a database problem. This is the second thread in which I've seen that happen today. I'll let IMOG know.
 
Yeah my pictures were up just fine last night. They were good for the whole time til this morning. Thanks on the critique of my rig. Hopefully this thread can get some new life.
 
Hey Big T nice set up my friend, what i like about some rigs is the lack of wires hanging about untidy all over the place! You can see this nice and neat and tidy good cable management. AJ :):thup:
 
if my new tubing ever arrives i shal post pix of my rig, need to ditch the red rams still -.- lol
 
Thanks a lot AJ! One thing that would really make my rig perfect (besides water cooling) really would be to get those cables sleeved. I like my cable management but I hate the cables.

The fans I have on my heat sink are probably my only chance of beating Hokie, or any of you others with crazy hardware.
 
Those fans are okay if it matches your theme. My case is red and black so that's why my fans fit perfectly. Also my fans push 88cfm, and were $5 a piece. I love the fans I have :)
