Ooh - nice stuff. :) Literally every piece of hardware there is at least twice as good as what I have now. :)

Echoing what BucNews said - thank you very much for the opportunity to compete in the contest. It's been a lot of work, a tremendous learning experience, and a heckuva lot of fun. :)

Wow, that would be fantastic to build. Better than all of my hardware to boot. I've always wanted to do a build with water cooling, so I'm calling dibs. :)

I'd like to thank everyone of the participants for making the competition worth winning, the editors for their feedback, FiringSquad for the inspiration, and Intel for their phenomenal hardware. I've had a ball participating. I have no idea if I'll be in the next round, but you've done a great job of making me work as hard as I can to try to get there.
