Cant say yet who it could go to but I use to work closely in the foster care for teens in finding "forever Homes" for teens passing from foster care to foster care. I still keep in touch with many of the workers that are transitioning them to there own place when they turn 18. I know they have needs beyond what you could imagine and I have donated computers before to some. I can assure it would go to a good cause.

If I was to win this rig I would donate it federal Fire at the top gun navy school. These men and women save so many life's, including my father who suffered a heart attack at work. They risk there life everyday doing mission support for the men and women in the navy.

If I was to win this awesome rig, it would go to my second oldest step daughter. She is struggling through college, majoring in business management. My son-in-law was just laid off on Monday of this week. Now to top things off, they took pretty much the last money they had and purchased everything for an upcoming Thanksgiving feast...................Not for themselves but to give to a family in dire need!!! Made tears come to my eyes!
She is currently using a half broke down laptop to do her college work and could use a nice system!
And, I am sure I could get her to run WCG under my name with it as well. :respect:

BUCK NASTY · Nov 14, 2014

Just want to update everyone on one of the original Kreij memorial rigs. I took a few months off during the summer, but now the cool weather has returned! Finally got around to overclocking the 1055t and she now is Crunching @ 3.8Ghz. This rig will house the 2-GTX 970's(with a PSU swap) that will arrive next week for F@H. It's currently crunching under my name(my servers are crunching for Kreij), but will be back under Kreij permanently after the Challenge. This rig should run 24/7 from now on. Many thanks to all who donate to these rigs and my thanks to all who "Crunch for a Cure"!

Helping a person who is helping another persons with out asking nothing to themselves, and, get a chance to crunch a bit, that is true remarkable :respect:

Another Cruncher.....sure I could use another one.

Here's the list we have so far of folks interested in receiving Kreij PC #5 (US)
@Jetster
@Dbiggs9
@stinger608
@Bow *
*reminder- the goal is to give this PC to someone that you know that could benefit from a nice PC from TPU.

Here's a pic of the case we will be using for this build:

* The area with the BitFenix symbol is actually a 240x320 LCD screen- you can put any image there

Drawing will be held over the Thanksgiving weekend so post here if you want a chance to give someone close to you a nice gift

[Ion] · Nov 18, 2014

Gonna pass on this--everyone in my life who needs a computer has one :toast:

Nordic · Nov 18, 2014

My mother is already being upgraded to the athlon rig I won from you awhile back. Some one is going to get lucky on this though.

BUCK NASTY · Nov 18, 2014

That is a nice freakin' case!!!!!

theonedub · Nov 18, 2014

Don't have anyone in mind that has a need for this build. I know someone will definitely put it to great use. Well done, guys :toast:

OT: That case is ridiculous. I would've snagged it the second SP posted it in his FS thread :laugh:

Off to Amazon

That BitFenix is a good looking case. Good choice.
I'm wondering about the person or family who will win this rig, probably should think that life isn't always bad and sometimes it feels good to receive something unexpected that is most needed at the moment. :toast:

Norton · Nov 19, 2014

UPDATE- case, etc is here! Thaanks to @sneekypeet for sending out this way so quickly! :toast:

A note on the selection process:

I'm going to defer to the previous winners to select the winner of the latest rig

xvi · Nov 21, 2014

I nominate my feet. If they win the rig, I'll turn it in to a footrest and point the exhaust up to keep them warm and dry.
(p.s. I don't actually nominate my feet. I don't need rigs. Grandpa says he needs one, but his laptop is doing just fine. Even gave him my 7200 RPM drive to perk it up a bit [because he killed his 5200]. All he does is play spider solitare anyways.)

BUCK NASTY said:

That's about what my X6 1100t was capable of, if I recall correctly. That's not a bad chip if it can hit those speeds comfortably.

Ahhzz · Nov 23, 2014

I nominate xvi's feet, because he's too proud to nominate his own feet. HE doesn't know how much stress those feet actually feel every day, all day, having to keep him up out of the wet and cold, taking all that drama on themselves. It's a sad, sad, day... "please sir, may I have some more??"

p.s. yeah... I need more alcohol... not really nominating xvi's feet either...but it's early in the morning, and my internet finally came back up, so... anyway... yeah.....
