Congrats!
good for them ..
Good luck with that one Tim. Might want to call the power company and have them increase your monthly electricity estimate.
Tim better have a large display so the gpus aren't wasted
Congratulations. It's hard to resist a little bit of jealousy on this round. Good stuff, even if some changes might be advised (per post-build discussions).
"Stay tuned for more giveaways from Tom's Hardware!"
I do "stay tuned" but I literally never see any of these giveaways until they are over. Toms showed make a section for these things.
Congrats! Hopefully this opens up to international winners. Or at least to Canadians

Congratulations to all! I am always excited for these types of articles. Good Work TH!
Way to go to the Winners and TH....I never knew that you could win those, next time i will be on the look out for that contest.
poeple sayign they never kno when contests are or when you can win them.. it's in the first page of every system build article >_< a click to enter to win
if i were tim i would sell it
I would sell the video cards off and get something that isn't going to cost me so much on my electric bill every month.
There needs to be more international winners. Congratulations to you lucky three though.

If I were Tim I would sell the mobo and CPU and get a REAL processor.
