    Thank you SLI. My gf was sitting next to me(was on her Laptop) and I grabbed her hand firmly from excitement when I saw my name.
    Worrying she said "What is it, baby??" She immediately let go with a "Oh, f**k off" when she saw why I grabbed her. LOL! :D
    I silently screamed "I won" and I got a congrats hug too.. Her expression made my day. ;)

    The keyboard suits me best, i thought about the card but it probably wouldn't fit well with my rig, throwing 32GB of ram into rig would be exciting though, i already have the Gigabyte Osmium keyboard so this'll serve as a spare(i got it after reading Hilbert's review) but it'll be cool having it sent straight from the manufacturer, though i'd have been just as happy with the one Hilbert used in his review, probably moreso.

    Yeah, same here. I only have need for the RAM, that why I wanted it. Talk about luck or fate/coincidence or whatever. Right now I'm sitting at 89%(7.09GB) used. 60+Tabs in chrome and 8 in IE10. Just a usual scenario among others. :D

    Although I must admit it. 32GB=Overkill for me. 16GB is more than enough. I "might" give the rest 16GB as a freebie to a poorer guy than me. Here on Guru3D Forums exclusively probably or someone I know. I will really think about it.
    Just for the Guru3D and holidays spirit sake.

    So, again congrats to you and all the others. Don't give it up everyonel. Hilbert might surprise you one day. ;)

    Ahahaha, same here! I've been running out of GPU memory with my latest display...

    And my friend has been wanting a new GPU, so I'm going to give him my old one. Gift keeps on giving. :)

    So you know how I felt when I won the 16GB memory kit last year. Nice feeling, aint it? Great to see people get so excited over these contests still.

    Congrats to the winners of this contest! I was hoping I would win the graphics card to make a gaming rig but guess I'll have to try again next year! :)

    +1 Personally I will play with the Ram Kit a bit, test a few VM's I had in mind, give RamDrives again a shot etc. Oh and overclock/lower timings etc..
    Then I will pit them again my current RJX kit and see which one I will keep and if I can mix them for a total of 24GB and gift the rest 16GB etc etc..


    Yeah, syk I utterly believe I do know how you felt. ;)

    At this age and times I rarely get any excitement(technologically speaking) other than when upgrading and getting to play with new toys
    or when playing a great game. I don't get easily excited in general. But then again I don't win or accomplish goals that often. ;)

    I had forgotten how satisfying is to see your name posted somewhere(for good reasons tho). You feel like you have accomplished something.

    At first I wasn't gonna say anything in respect to the others, but hey, I won, I should be happy about it and not the opposite.

    I do care for the Forum and our fellow members and I felt like sharing my excitement with the rest.
    If I didn't care I would just be like "Suck it, suckers!" and not even reply with a Thanks to Hilbert and the Guru3D Team. Respect and be respected.
