49" 5120X1440 is absolutely crazy. How many spreadsheets can you have open at once with that bad boy.

Always wanted a stretch armstrong as a kid and never got one :'(

Had to get some help but I did ok I think! It was a bit of a..... stretch, though!

Thanks for making me look like some kind of NPC!

Two questions:

Why are you dressed as a Centurion?
Why havbe you been shot with arrows?

My entry. Possibly a touch too dramatic but oh well.

This is the ghost of warehouse full!!!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

Did you notice anything on the wing that is on the left (near your head)

I didn't notice it, but now have. Nice touch!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

Thanks Rav! You have incredible legs!

And nice throw back to an old shop event. I spy a wild Valkia too!

@Slogan

This had us in stitches this morning and you had to do some proper stalking to get that photo of me in the shower!

Congrats.

Message me your details and I'll get the Monitor shipped out!

Well done!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

Awesome!

Was in two minds as to whether to post a photo up in the current climate but hopefully it's taken in the right spirit. Also felt it was the right thing to do, to say thanks to Overclockers UK and @NikTheSHNIK for putting on such a great competition within the forums.



What a beast! Waiting on some cables for my main tower so had to plug the laptop in for now but it's gonna take some getting used to. The photo has also highlighted how much of a blank canvas this room is

Thanks again for the messages of congrats within the thread and hopefully there's another competition around the corner for someone else to scoop up.
