The Winners of the $1000+ Core i7 CPU Giveaway

by - source: Tom's Hardware US

Congrats!

Earlier this month we ran a contest giving away some very nice and expensive CPUs. In our labs we had some Intel Core i7-990X, Core i7-980X and Core i7-950, all with matching motherboards.

Some of these combos retailed for more than $1,200, and now they've all found new owners. In fact, we found an extra set; so instead of five lucky winners, we're announcing a lucky six!

Big congratulations to:

Henri Jupille of Denver, CO

Hung Nguyen of Portland, OR

William Hertzel of Arvada, CO

Kenneth Nickel of Upland, PA

Dustin Shaw of Austin, TX

Christopher Sherman of Berkley, CA

Thanks for participating! If you didn't win this time, be sure to try your luck again in our Q1 System Builder Marathon giveaway!

must be used to reading from top to bottom, cause the dude's name is actually Nguyen Hung, or Guy. Lucky dog even his name is cool, in school he was always, Hung, Guy....

I notice that there aren't any Canadian winners. Do you, Tom's Hardware, allow us Canadians in your contests. For any response, feel free to email me back at Emm_Kelly0@hotmail.com. My name is Mike. Thanks.
P.S. great site, by the way.

shipping cost are a little higher, but there's also socialist taxes of 50% or something like that. not sure on the trade regulations since we've got NAFTA. maybe Tom's could get away with a trade deal, they trade you the stuff and you trade them back a picture of your happy face and the goods set up in your new rig as a postcard/advertisement campaign?!
