PNY F@H Contest - Free Prizes

[pmasley]

That is a strange contest. I signed up for it yesterday in the am and a little after noon, I recieved an email with a license for 3DMark. Well, whatever, thanks for the program. IT is a premium edition of 3DMark.

[^w^ing]

damn those governments of ours! why do they tax our emails, why...

[pmasley]

Better be careful of what you say. They may be paying a personal vist and tax you for each hair in a certain private region!

[swiftyy]

Ya they are giving away 3dmark Vantage Advance Edition keys as well. If you register all you need to do is sign up for the 3dmark contest and you will get a key via email.

Its by the by for me, every PNY product ive ever bought has failed, so i wouldnt touch a freebie with a barge pole.

I'll stick with XFX cards.

On the thing of taxes. Its a competition, arent those supposed to be all in, or is it one of those, heres a card now bugger off and dont contact us again, things.

But yeh not really bothered, tbh.

GL anyone who takes part.

The F@H contest is about to start soon, still waiting on a few more details.

However as someone stated you can win 3dmark Vantage keys rite now, so when you register don't forget to sign up for the Vantage key giveaway.

[swiftyy]

4,000 keys have been given out so far, another 4,000 to go. Register and signup so you can win your FREE 3dmark key.

We are still waiting on some details from Dr. Pande and Co. before starting the F@H contest.

There is a post on the PNY forums. Plus and internal email from PNY informed me of the update.

The random drawing for the GTX285 will be done when 4,000 keys are given out. Right now the total number of keys given out is around 3,900

I never got an email

Oh, so this has nothing to do with their F@H contest then...

[swiftyy]

The 3dmark key giveaway is another contest along side the F@H contest. Just a free giveaway to who signed up.

The F@H contest is scheduled to start on Fri Feb 20, 2009 and run till Sun March 22, 2009. So keep an eye out for an email if you already registered.

It is strange that it is supposed to be a random draw everyday for the 3DMark license and yet EVERY single person I have spoken to who registered got a key!
Am I correct in saying the 3DMark is only compatible with Vista?
