btarunr · Jun 30, 2014

TechPowerUp teamed up with BIOSTAR to bring you a cool new giveaway, in which you could win one of three BIOSTAR Hi-Fi Z97WE socket LGA1150 motherboards based on the Intel Z97 Express chipset, and ready for not just current Core "Haswell," "Haswell Refresh," and "Devil's Canyon" processors, but also future 5th generation Core processors. The Hi-Fi Z97WE boasts of a powerful onboard audio solution that features audiophile-grade capacitors, ground-layer isolation, and a high SNR CODEC. To enter the contest, all you have to do is "Like" our Facebook page, if you haven't already, and fill up a short form (or make Facebook do it for you). Good Luck!

I hope this US-only policy go die in hell, and these companies starve to death after doing something US-only :mad:

The rest of the world needs some love, you know?

Considering that Facebook is a portal for the NSA and considering they practice social experiments on unwitting users perhaps TPU should review its relationship with the social media outlet.
