by - source: Tom's Hardware US

Retweet @TomsHardware to win nearly $850 in hardware!

Greetings Tom's Hardware faithful! We're running a special contest for our readers who have a Twitter account.

We've partnered with Zalman and Zotac to give one lucky reader a rather substantial upgrade to his or her computer rig. One entrant will have the opportunity to win one Zotac GeForce GTX 580 Amp2! Edition and one Zalman ZM1000-HP Plus 1000 W power supply to fuel it.

Entrants must be a follower of @TomsHardware on Twitter and must retweet at least one article that Tom’s Hardware has posted that day. Retweet entries will be accepted starting on 12:01 a.m. PDT on April 19th, 2011 and ends at 11:59 p.m. PDT on April 25th, 2011. Limit one entry per person/Twitter username.

Due to regulations, the Giveaway is open only to legal residents of the United States (including the District of Columbia, excluding Rhode Island) 18 years of age or older at the time of entry.

While you're on Twitter retweeting your favorite Tom's Hardware article, check out @Zotac and @ZalmanUSA. If you're not a part of Twitter, you can still enter with an entry sent via mail.

Please see the official rules for full details.

tweeting ugh.

on other more exiting news, anyone see the super8 interactive teaser in portal 2 extras. Its either a new IP with a movie, or HL2:ep3, it certainly felt and sounded like half life.

I'd rather take a blowtorch to my nuts than get a twitter account.

This would go good in my new P67A-UD4-B3 board I just won 2 weeks ago. Now just if they would make some games that would make the card actually work hard.

Wait, entry is by Twitter or snail mail? Can't get much more disparate methods, can you? :)

I can't enter but I don't mind, I do however wonder what those regulations are..

I'm upgrading soon, probably going to grab two of those 580's and I'll be set for another 14 months.

I don't even know what 'retweeting' is supposed to mean,
I have had an account for many years, but never use it.

I see no tomshardware tweets I can retweet.
I can only link to an article here.

So for the leeks out there, what do you mean by re-tweeting?

OK, never mind, I hate twitter!

I don't do twitter. Never have, never will. I guess it's mail entry for me.

How many more hoops do you have to jump through? Submit video of skydiving while retweeting? Discover the Lost City of Gold while re-posting to Facebook to enter? Geo-cache the info to a USB key to be rediscovered via Google Earth feed to auto-register? Overclock your car's navigation system and allow it to automatically forward all RSS feeds to your GeoCities account...wait...

Good lord...anymore, trying to get registered for a drawing means you need to whore yourself out on all media outlets...it used to only mean using a bunk email address to sign up for a truckload of spam mail every day.

Twitter is for twitts.

They can't just have a contest anymore, or random drawing, it's all about advertising and selling yourself out.

Thank You Tom's and your partners for this great contest and the option to mail in a entry for those whom reject the devil that is social networking, but if we can mail in a entry why not email to save paper and a stamp which we all know is not getting any cheaper? Earth Day is upon us, April 22. Why not get the techies on Tom's involved? Yes I am calling you out to help the planet we live on. =)

Social networking is only for people that lack any REAL human interaction or advertisements and NOTHING else. Period.

Tweeting? C'mon really? How about just posting in the comments! (like other tech sites)

Lol, re-tweeted... sounds like something Elmer Fudd would say when he ran away from battle.

If anyone from outside the US wants to submit their application they can and have it sent to me and I can send it to you then.
