Ha, it's mostly because we don't make RAM more than anything. We're fortunate enough to work closely with AMD and they graciously provided us with something to run things with, but we couldn't nab any RAM for you sadly!

I'm sure you'll manage to cope somehow though ;)

Really looking forward to seeing the build put together!

I won these items:

MSI Gungnir 110R case
MSI MAG Coreliquid 360R cooler
An AMD Ryzen 3600 CPU
The motherboard, of course

I'll certainly be sharing some photos and my thoughts when it's all built and ready.

It wasn't just the motherboard!?!?!?? I wish I could swear on here. :p

I was just kidding, I wanted to see what you would say. :p

Congrats @thewanted enjoy the board dude :D

Thanks man :) My 4770K was just hitting 80%+ in Warzone tonight so I'm keen to see how much better this will perform.

Does it really matter? Can’t you be happy that it’s made someone else’s day/week/month/year? :confused:

Blimey people are quite bitter about someone winning :(

The world needs more positivity right now, so thank you.

For the sake of transparency and fairness, I have sent @MSIUK Support a message asking if I am still eligible for the prize so that I have a clear conscience.

Bloody hell mate, get a grip.

MSI have the ultimate say in who wins, which is the part I quoted. They can decide if they meet the entry criteria or not.

Friends, let's relax.

We chose a winner from all of the entrants. Let's not get snipey about it. thewanted won the giveaway, it seems like they're a well established and liked user here, so I'm happy they were picked. I simply took the total number of entries before the cut off time, used a random number generator and used that to pull the post number, checked they gave the correct answer and awarded based on that.

We're doing something nice by giving someone the best part of a full build. Yeah, it makes us look lovely (and I promise we are!), but also it has the good upside of giving someone something pretty nice if I do say so myself. Let's not turn it into nitpicking and getting angry around the result.

I'm sorry I couldn't give away 40 odd kits so everyone had one, but we'll definitely be swinging back round before too long with something else I'm sure.

Big love folks <3
