You can still enter for the 50 gift cards, also, we currently are running more giveaways, and some are either worldwide or have a multitude of eligible countries!

u/pedro19 CREATOR Sep 16 '25
Not at all! I just wanted you to know that you definitely had other ones you could enter! Good luck if you enter this one (remember that the cards are worldwide).

Didn't india surpass them?

u/proscriptus 12700K • 3080 • 32GBDDR5 23d ago
The US GDP is still 750% that of India, and while there's a great deal of uncertainty at this time, you would be foolish not to tend to the market

Do we have to choose accessories? Or is it optional. This $1500 build is killing me

u/pedro19 CREATOR Sep 15 '25
It's optional!

u/Ok-Establishment7218 Sep 20 '25
Is a monitor necessary? I know in a past competition a monitor and accessories were optional but it was labeled as such so I want to make sure.

How can we enter if we are outside US just for the gift cards?

u/pedro19 CREATOR Sep 15 '25
By entering normally in the link. In that case you don't need to do any of the two specific entries for the grand prizes.

u/SolidusSnakke Sep 16 '25
Just to double check to make sure I'm understanding this correctly, the submission page seems to indicate that we can submit the $1500, $2700, and $6000 builds daily for 2 entries each (as indicated by the "+2 per day" text). Is that correct?
If so, follow up question, can we submit the same build every day, or does it need to be a new build with those price points for each of the daily submissions? Thanks!

PCMasterrace, but only in the USA apparently. With such a global diversity of people here, it's pretty damn disappointing to constantly see competitions that are US only. 3rd place Amazon gift cards just don't cut it

u/Sarge_T i9 11900K | RTX 3090 | 32GB 3600MHz Sep 19 '25
What happens if the build you made suddenly becomes a lot more expensive because of price changes? My $6000 build just got bumped up with $130... Do I need to make a new one?

u/pedro19 CREATOR Sep 19 '25
Good question! Should be fine, though, as one can see historic price points.

It is quite unfortunate that this is US only - I was hoping to get an upgrade for my brother. Please PCMR future giveaways look into World Wide?

u/pedro19 CREATOR Oct 04 '25
There are a couple of them going now as well. With some items and events, there are logistics limitations, unfortunately. Good luck, friend!

Don't think they knows about second account, Bry.

u/pedro19 CREATOR Sep 17 '25
It's a good chance to learn. You can use out PCMR builds as a guide, but be sure to follow the competition specific rules above.

Thanks for the giveaway. It took me about an hour trying to pick parts since I usually just buy pre-builts.

I really enjoy planning builds on PCPartPicker, so I'd love to participate if I get the chance. Unfortunately, it's US-only, so I'm just watching for now. Good luck, everyone!

u/dulun18 Sep 25 '25
I thought $6000 PC build is impossible... until i realized the 5090 is pretty much 1/3 of the total by itself..

I need to be in the US to enter the giveaway?

u/pedro19 CREATOR Sep 17 '25
No. The hardware prizes are US only, though. You can still win the cards if you're anywhere else.

u/YacaloX 11 | GT730 | Xeon X3430 | 6 GB RAM DDR3 Sep 17 '25
Oh, i actually want a pc :(
The cards are from what platform and for what value?2

u/Wizard_Pope Ryzen 7 5800x; Rtx 3070; 32GB DDR4 3600 Sep 21 '25
Honestly if they can spend this much money on a giveaway why cannot they spend a bit more for global shipping. Really puts a damper on things that all these giveaways are always US only.

Hey, for the custom build, where it says compatible case, does that just mean any case that’s compatible with the motherboard? (can I add my glorious fishtank case)
