Win a new PC from Tom's Hardware and Newegg!
Few things are certain in life, but we do know that we like to win, free stuff is cool, and nothing beats that new computer smell. All of those things are possible if you enter the Tom’s Hardware System Builder Marathon Contest.
You’ve read our Builder Marathon articles for years and now you can win one those featured PCs in our latest contest in conjunction with Newegg.
We’ve got three full systems to give away: the high-end, mid-range and entry level PC.
For more on each of the systems, check out the links below:
- System Builder Marathon, May '09: $600 Gaming PC
- System Builder Marathon, May '09: $1,300 Enthusiast PC
- System Builder Marathon, May '09: $2,500 Performance PC
Want to take one of those systems home? Entering is simple. All you have to do is answer a few multiple choice questions correctly to be eligible for the random draw. All the answers can be found in our featured articles, which are conveniently linked for you. Think of it as an open book quiz!
The contest is open to U.S. (excluding RI) and Canadian residents 18 years or older and will run through July 3, 2009 (11:59 pm PST, GMT -8).
Good luck!
Was kind of looking forward to going through Newegg to find the best computer for 650$
Not doing any of those results in a misdemeanor for the company doing the giveway.
The contest rules link doesn't seem to work on some of the pages. Check them out here:

I've changed the title
Also thanks for another great idea for a contest. I'll be sure to pass that idea onto the right parties.
I really want to win the $1300 pc, but really any of them would work...I already have one gtx 260 as well as an i7 920 cpu so I wouldn't use much else other than the gfx cards (although I think I would only use one of the gtx 295s in the $2500 system due to power usage).
This would easily be the best birthday present EVER. so come on Toms, you know you want to give me one
Here's crossing my fingers.
Contest to see who can put together the best PC within a certain price range!!!
1. Contestant hits up Newegg and virtually assembles a PC within the allotted amount of $$$ to try and see if they can put together the best value for that $$$.
2. Contestant's entries will be sorted and 5 (or perhaps 3) PC's will be chosen based on what looks best on paper.
3. The 5 (or 3) virtual PC's are brought to life by Tom & friends @ Tom's Hardware, each PC representing the person who virtually created it.
4. All 5 (or 3?) PC's are benchmarked by the same set of benchies and the overall winner gets to take their respective machine home to nuggle with and pet
5. Rhode Island is to be included in the contest or i will move to neighboring Massachusetts!
BOO-YA!
Pretty sure they meant cores, and not scores.
