Smells like team spirit contest.

[Charles Wirth]

Prizes, your choice of RAM or PSU products from OCZ or Mushkin.

To enter you must have a;


Mushkin
OCZ
Xtreem Group
Gskill



logo in your signature.

This logo must be a graphic.

Winners will be noticed/picked based on quality of post.

Benchmark posts will also be considered.

Flashy and creative logo's are welcome.

No bashing of other products.

Spam posts will not be considered.

Signatures must be within forum rules and can contain the remainder of hardware of system you wish to spot in the sig.

Two prizes from each company will be awarded each Friday for the month of July. July 8,15,22,29

Prizes will be sent directly form the manufacture and will be listed in this post w/ part # early next week.

[afireinside]

So we win based on how good the sig is?

[n00b 0f l337]

Quality vs quantity, isn't that what RAM should really be?

[ZX7891]

cool, this is gonna be fun :)

[Charles Wirth]

There will a few rule changes and possible addition of another memory manufacture.

[n00b 0f l337]

Sounds good, I think this is a good contest idea. I hope the mods are ready.

[Mr. Popo]

lol, the best sig wins? :p:

[n00b 0f l337]

No Mr. Popo, the best posts win. Those who contribute to the community and provide something that will be used for eva and eva will reap the rewards of there efforts to help others.

Ah, but we are all a caring community! people help cause they want to help.

[n00b 0f l337]

Exactly why this is a great contest. Those who help because they can or have extra time, even without trying extra hard or anything will get to sorta be complimented on there good work by even getting elected sorta by the staff to take a freeby.

I think its a really good idea.

BTW, look at my sexy "home made" sig. :)

[n00b 0f l337]

Haha looks nice Popo, and I don't help that much. I'm not even going to be around first and last week of july. Seems like I'm missing another of XS's contests. And my sig was a cut n paste from around mushkin's website.

[Charles Wirth]

Dont need to suck up, its pretty random.

[n00b 0f l337]

Heh I'm not sucking up, I think this is a great contest idea as compared to hit 5272 in 3dmark03 or something. Hopefully a XIP who needs it wins it.

Hardware and skills is not important in the contest.




But if it's judged on a signature graphic, and post quality, then "skills" are important.

Btw, is it too big? It's like 700kb because it has a lot of frames...

I have to admit this signature is nice :cool:

@some of you: remember that your signature stays within' the rules. 250 pixels high. It's kinda cheating - more space, more place the eye can catch.
I say the width doesn't matter that much (it's 550pixels according to rules) but I say as long as it stays withing the boarders of the post width, got no problem with that but high counts.
Maybe remember just this: If your average post length is shorter as your signature - it's too big ;)

[Shpoon]

Hahah, damn! Caught us!

(Nah, mine is good size I think). I do like the pong signature :p

[ex2cib]

thx guys, i could make my overall sig slightly smaller, but i just felt i should support my DC team still :)

[WeStSiDePLaYa]

[Zenphic]

so this explains all the ocz sigs. is it too late to enter?
Of course not :) The giveaway is going from today (or yesterday... lol) until the 29th.
Simply have an OCZ or Mushkin related image in your signature and you're good to go.

[SoF]

so this explains all the ocz sigs. is it too late to enter?

you have to squeeze your signature first, it's already too long and a picture as required here doesn't make it smaller ;)

I'm on this bandwagon too... though my banner is starting to get pixel envy.

If I could have some clarification though: Are the contest rules to have ONE brand in your sig, or as many as you want? And, if it's as many as you want, do you go through looking posts looking to fill a Mushkin quota, than an OCZ, then a G.Skill etc... so that having more than one is better, or does every member only get considered once so it doesn't matter anyway?

Take a look at how crazy these HZs are! DDR500 and I'm running them at 285MHz! I've got them to boot into Windows at 290MHz, all without voiding my warranty by going out of voltage spec. G.Skill really does make some of, if not THE best RAM out there...all for a really low price. I seriously do love G.Skill. This isn't just a shameless ploy to get free stuff.

If needed, PM me, I can host them.

[Fr3ak]

SoF, I take it at least one of your rigs is running 24/7, so just install a FTp server and host the files by yourself.
If you dont find anything, tell me and I will host it for you.

[SoF]

many thanks Shpoon & Fr3ak for your fast help.
I'll pm you Fr3ak for hosting my sig picture.
Normally I've webspace on my own but as the signature is under every of my posts I don't know how much traffic it'll cost me a month.
FTP is not possible here even one of my systems runs 24/7. I often have DSL problems here and as long as I can't solve them and make sure my line is always up, I better host things elsewhere ;)

[InSanCen]

If anyone needs their image hosted for the Duration (as long as it complies with the rules on size), email me...

adminATinsancenDOTcoDOTuk

it will be stored at:-
h t t p://www.insancen.co.uk/sigs/yourforumname.jpg
For Example: SoF would be /sigs/sof.jpg (capitals will be converted to lowercase)

Oh, I'm in, going to find an image now

OK i re did mine and made it more obvious. My ballistix is dying as I have to run 4-5-5-12 @ 133mhz which is cripling performance so I'm really hoping that I can win even if it means i have to be a billboard. Also I only have paint to work with so it looks awful but you get the point :p: :toast:

The blue looks way too bright so i'm going to change that :lol: [edit] that's better....

Hmm, you should have told me that....

Why is that? I'm supporting OCZ, but I liked the picture....I think that's a little silly...

For example, nothing against Westsideplaya, but they have both mushkin and OCZ in the sig....

Oh well, I suppose I'll take it out.

i think its to show support to companies youve actually worked with.

my first sticks were ocz, and it was a good experience so its really turned me onto them, and ive always loved the mushkin bh-5/6 ram ive owned.

ive kinda always had a thing for both companies, i even had bigfootcomputers make me up a custom mushkin vinyl for my case.

my sig is just the stick from my favourite ocz and mushkin series ive owned, enhanced bandwidth, and the 222 special.

ive never used g.skill or xtreem ram, so i didnt put them in my sig, since ive never used them, i cant testify to their products, although i know alot of people love them. ive just never been able to get any.

heres my vinyl i had them make up for me. i like to support companies ive had good experiences with.


and complaining wont get you anything, just surf the forums and try to be informative or funny.

i personally hope thrilla wins something. that guy always has the most entertaining posts and experiments.:D

[Bloody_Sorcerer]

whee, i'm in! i had been wondering what this thread was, but i never clicked it. stupid me :D

I'm not really complaining, and don't worry, it was not my intent to see you bashed :p

It was more an observation, I suppose I'm due for another sig soon :p

And thanks for the story. (No sarcasm intended).

I think that Westside is going to use his free ram to a great effect!

I know some of the other winners are eager to know what we have won :)Do we have to contact anyone, or are we going to receive a PM?

Thank you to everyone who made this possible!

[ozzimark]

i was gonna put teamgroup, ocz, crucial and amd in my sig until i saw what fugger said. now just nice and simple :p:

[ex2cib]

yea, are we supposed to contact someone? or are they supposed to contact us on winning?

[WeStSiDePLaYa]

i think we recieve a message and then we get a selection to choose from.

at least i hope its a PM and not an email, almost all of my needed emails get filtered out as spam.

Is it supposed to be Prefection, or Perfection.

[WeStSiDePLaYa]

Is it supposed to be Prefection, or Perfection.


he either mis spelt perfection, or profection. profection meaning an advancement or progression.

[K.I.T.T.]

What do you think of my new sig? Used the camera on my SE K750i, paint and photoshop :)

Nice sort of burn effect on the memory.

hmm im going out of town for the next two weeks i hope i dont miss my chance to get my prize.

I thought that he might have been going for a play on words, and thinking of Prefetch(ion) or something of that sort.

[cadaveca]

Nor I. Proly have to wait until the contest is over...even though that's not what Fugger stated in the first post. Oh well. Last contest winners did not recieve any prizes for a while, as has been the case with other contests.:fact:

Patience.

[[XC] leviathan18]

[Zardokk]

Hehe I never get tired of looking at your sig. :D

That's a little strange...

[Mr. Popo]

That's a little strange...

You got the wrong idea! I ment it's funny! with the sticks in your hand and it's all like "CUSTOMER ACTION SHOT!"... :slap: :lol: :ROTF:

[Zardokk]

I know, I know. It is pretty funny. That's an awful picture of me, though, and an awful picture in general. Damn this cheap $60 digital camera!!

good luck to everyone

[phelonius]

i've got out all my skillZ and made up the best rap ever
oh yea, and i hope it isnt to big?

[`odin]

yes good luck to everyone :toast:

[Zardokk]

Yup, good like to everyone. Looks like we're all doing some promotion for some high quality products. Even if I don't win, I'm happy I entered this contest just to show off to people how cool G.Skill is. I've never used better RAM than these DDR500 HZs. Very high quality, no errors, no heat problems, amazing overclockers...what more could you want? These things are like the FX-57 or E6600 of RAM. They're not quite the best, but they're damn close, and with a little bit oc OCing...

:kissbutt: :kissbutt: :kissbutt: :kissbutt: :D

[Zardokk]

Maybe a little, but these HZs are genuinely the best sticks of RAM I've ever used. If you check other forums I've been on, I recommend these things to everyone. Getting within 10MHz of DDR600 on DDR500 RAM that only cost $160...well it's just amazing.

[hixie]

BTW, what happened to week 3 and week 4 winners?

[[XC]melymel]

BTW, what happened to week 3 and week 4 winners?

[Charles Wirth]

Week 3 winners posted, grats guys :toast:

[metro.cl]

in the mushkin category but i have one question there is no limit in the $$$?

because i would like to get the redline xp8000 2x1gb if there is no limit i only need ddr2 ram to get my rig going

[WeStSiDePLaYa]

im hoping im able to get the xp4000 2x1GB from them.:D

EDIT:

in second thought, maybe i should get some ddr2 ram. would motivate me to piece together a am2 rig.

[Zardokk]

i dont think ass kissing will help your chances. :p:

Looks like it did :D Seriously though, this G.Skill RAM is THE BEST I've ever owned. That being said, I haven't owned a lot of RAM in my days, so I really don't have a lot to compare with. I'm grateful to have won a prize. I hope I can get some high quality DDR2 sticks :).

[littleowl]

LOL I am glad that @$$ kissing worked for you!! :)

I could use some new ram too!!! mine keeps getting hot on me and I don't get much of an overclock with it!! :(

[Kobalt]

Okay...I'm in. Hopefully you all are familiar with hip hop culture and that you know what a "G" is. (Btw i am nothing like 50 cent :D).

[JasonDTM]

Any news on prizes, or is it all going to be announced after week 4's done?

[Haltech]

I havent received any info on what it is we get to choose.

[majestik]

They are still trying to find that EDO ram to give you as a prize ;)

[Zardokk]

Lol. EDO RAM...haven't heard that phrase in a while. I'll take FPM instead, thank you. :D

[Zenphic]

Geez only one week left.
Better start crossing your fingers those who haven't won yet :p:

[Kobalt]

Hmmm...i hosted it from XS as an attachment since it was only like 90KB...its gone now and I don't have access to it since I'm not at home :(.

[Zardokk]

Geez only one week left.
Better start crossing your fingers those who haven't won yet :p:

I'll take the prizes for those who haven't won if they don't want to enter. :D

[Shpoon]

Geez only one week left.

Crossed for a month now ;)

[Zardokk]

I've won, so I think I can offer a tip to all the wannabe winners out there: take a picture of yourself with a dumb expression on your face holding your RAM. This will guarantee that you win, lol. :D

[Shpoon]

I havn't sunk that low yet ;) If I don't win this week *please please please :toast: next competition I'll be sure to do that

Gonna try to switch my logo, hopefully that'll work :p Think it looks alright?
