Here at Techgage, contests aren’t too common. The best reason I have for that boils down to time. Even simple contests require a fair bit of planning and time to implement, so it always comes down to whether time is better spent on our bread and butter (our content), or holding a contest, which very rarely delivers a return-on-investment. But, I was thinking about it a few weeks ago, and I think it would be a good idea to get a contest up every now and then, as a way to give back to our loyal readers, and as a result, that’s what we’ll be doing.
As you can see at the top of the page, we’ve just unveiled a new contest where you can win a gaming PC from iBUYPOWER valued at $2,199, which features both Intel’s awesome Core i7-870 and also the X25-M 80GB SSD. If you haven’t checked out our rules yet, what are you waiting for? The steps to enter yourself are easy and the entire process should only take you a few minutes. And you know what? You might just win!

I have a couple of contest ideas in mind for the future, but I will say that few contests will be as grandiose as the one above. After all, it’s not all-too-often that we’re offered a robust gaming PC to give away! So, prizes from future contests will vary in their wow-factor, from modest to :-O!. The ultimate goal is to give you guys a chance to win some cool stuff, and have fun while doing it.
We already have another contest lined up for the beginning of October, and it’s also a good one. It’s not a gaming PC, but it does relate to gaming, and how you see gaming. No, it’s not a game, but it’s something to enhance the experience. That’s all I’m saying! So stay tuned, and if you haven’t entered our current contest yet… GET ON IT!
