As you might know, we announced that Stardock will be giving away a custom built gaming PC worth over $4000 to the millionth Impulse customer. I was told the specs, and I’m just in awe of what an awesome machine this is.

I read most pages, but did not see it listed.... what type of CPU fan and/or CPU cooling is being used???
Being a perfectionist I want to know all details.

I would assume it's stock cooling for both CPU and GPU. Otherwise it had been posted.

How many folks have bought more than one item.
Me!
GalCiv2/Fredlords ..
GalCiv2/SharkHaveatart
GalCiv2/TwiceRight of the Harbor
ObjectDesktopX/ the whole pack in a rack of a snack in a wack, SkinStudio *alone* is worth MUCH more than the incredible deal i got at 39.95$US (Heck, you can even take off the decimal!) Close enough?
AVGIS8/ Greedsoft of czek republic - no AIG punks overthere, i guess.
Me too...bought the whole GalCiv bundle, Sins, Sins: Entrenchment, Titan Quest, Space Rangers, and I'm sure there is another one that I am forgetting...Hope SD likes my $$$ as much as I like the games that $$$ bought!!! LOL
Definitely gotten the value out of the $$$ I gave. No complaints here. In all honesty, who cares who wins, just hope they know how to appreciate such a sweet rig and that they get good use out of it.
BTW, the Z-5500 speaker system is SWEET...I have it on my rig and set-up in my basement. One of the best purchases I ever made.
