TechPowerUp and Be Quiet! Upgrade Kit Giveaway: The Winners!

btarunr · Jun 13, 2019

Early June, TechPowerUp in partnership with German PC cooling, casing, and power-supply experts Be Quiet!, who share our OCD for low-noise, brought you a sweet chance to upgrade your PC's case, power, and CPU cooling ahead of Summer. The results are in, and we have our three winners! The first randomly-selected entry from our Giveaway pool gets a combo of a Silent Base 601 Window Black case, a Straight Power 11 650W PSU, and a Dark Rock Slim CPU cooler. The next lucky winner gets the same case and CPU cooler. The third lucky winner gets the cooler. Without further ado, the winners!

Eliott "FreedomEclipse," from the U.K., hits the jackpot, wins a Silent Base 601 Window Black case, a Straight Power 11 650W PSU, and a Dark Rock Slim CPU cooler (one of each)
Bryan, from Texas, United States, wins a Silent Base 601 Window Black case and a Dark Rock Slim CPU cooler (one each)
Tsvetomir from Sofia, Bulgaria, wins a Dark Rock Slim CPU cooler

A huge Congratulations to you three! Happy Gaming this Summer!

Unless it runs hotter than an 8700k at 4.8GHz, it should do just fine. So yeah, probably

Congrats to the winners! :toast:

If you could tell them i would rather trade/swap the case away for a Dark Rock Pro 4 - If they would do that for me then i would happily give away the Dark Rock Slim they will send me in a contest/giveaway of my own on these forums (if not hand it over to Norton for a giveaway). Otherwise I have no use for that stuff apart from selling or giving them away when i receive it.

I cross my fingers that maybe they might be nice enough humor me. If not - Im still thankful for the giveaway. Really shocked when i woke up this morning and saw so many notifications waiting for me.

Im in awe really

Congratulations !!!!!!!!!!!!!

FreedomEclipse · Jun 14, 2019

Katharina the Marketing Manager at Be Quiet! has graciously approved my cheeky request and allowed me to swap the case for something that I can use in my own current build (Dark Rock Pro 4)

So in the spirit of Be Quiet!'s giveaway and good will for accepting my request. I will be giving away the Dark Rock Slim in my own contest/giveaway when it arrives at my doorstep in a few days time.

It will be a UK/EU only giveaway unless there are members willing to sponsor the giveaway so it can be posted internationally.

Details to be decided.

Thank you Katharina for making this possible
