As some may know, 5UB kindly threw some games at me yesterday for the backplates I had made, unfortunately for me and fortunately for you guys I already have the games, I've given away a few on steam but still have some pretty sweet games to give away!

Rules are stipulated under each prize.

1st PRIZE - FAR CRY 3

No limit on number of GPU's or CPU's, the highest P score wins, must provide 3dmark link, GPUZ link as well as a desktop screen cap showing GPUZ & GPUZ validation, also to have notepad open with your forum name typed in for user validation

WINNER: {SAS}TB - P24512

2nd PRIZE - BORDERLANDS 2

Single CPU & single GPU/GPU core, closest to 11986 P score wins, must provide 3dmark link, GPUZ link as well as a desktop screen cap showing GPUZ & GPUZ validation, also to have notepad open with your forum name typed in for user validation.

WINNER: Dowcow

3rd PRIZE(S) - 2 x copies of DIRT SHOWDOWN

2 Winners for this one, single CPU & any number of GPU's, closest to 10000 GPU SCORE. This should allow those with slower cards to compete. Must provide 3dmark link, GPUZ link as well as a desktop screen cap showing GPUZ & GPUZ validation, also to have notepad open with your forum name typed in for user validation

WINNERS: Mr.Cookie & MyBrains


All entrants MUST have been a forum member as of DEC 12 or earlier, all entrants MUST have trust enabled to receive their prize.

If anyone is unclear of anything let me know and I'll adjust this post as and when.

Closing date is not set in stone as of yet, I'll wait and see how many entries we get in the next day or so first :)

Well we haven't had any entries yet so you've every chance of winning something :)

Especially the 10000 GPU score as some would have to downclock to reach it ;)
 
Nice give away :) its a same though that only people who can afford to buy GPU's as if they were stamps have a chance.
 
As above, put an entry in, whats the worst that can happen? Lets face it, most who have ultra high end setups probably already have these games...

I'll check your score as soon as the 3dmark web site lets me :o

giving some form of error message when I try.
 
understood paul if it's ok to call you that?
I could probably get it lower than that but it'll do for now.
Seemed completely alien to me downclocking my card to win something lol
 
Good way to try and drum up sales of Graphics cards.
Not for me though.

eh? how is someone offering to give free games away for running a benchmark drumming up sales?

it would be counter productive buying a new graphics card to try to win this competition - as these games are the ones you get for buying a new graphics card anyway
