Summer is almost over and it’s back-to-school time! In the spirit of back-to-school, we've teamed up with Kingston to give away something to help you study. One lucky winner picked at random will have a chance to win an awesome 120GB Kingston HyperX SSD based on the latest SandForce controller. The drive is blazing fast so that you can finish that term paper ahead of time and still have plenty of time left to kill your enemies.

Two other randomly-picked winners will have a chance to win a 4GB DDR3-1600 Kingston HyperX Blue or a 32GB DataTraveler Ultimate USB 3.0 flash drive.

Here's how to win some awesome prizes:

This will get you an entry into the contest. Now to make the contest more interesting, we are going to let you submit extra entries by fulfilling some additional criteria. Every extra entry you earn means your name will be entered into the pool one more time.

I only found 8/10 links, and I checked all reviews and articles two times wich took over 7 hours. so I must be missing something here... Unless your search engine for categorys is not updated.

Let me double check but as far as I can tell they are there all in the 2011 articles.

Yea, just saying I double checked every 2011 review and article and not a single one from the list where I can choose by mobo or processor ect. category was the other 2, Only found 8, Not trying to be a sore loser here, just I clicked every single page two times each wich took 7 hrs and I still cant find it going into 9 hours almost now haha. Maybe I missed one article or maybe I didnt but Holy mother of jesus does this alone take forever, I got carpeltunnel from scrolling too much now haha.

I would just check that they are also all in the year 2011 just to be safe if all 10 links are still there, because woo am i tired... haha

yep, double checked and they are all there. :) I guess a challenge is a challenge. :P

no way they are all there, unless for some reason they are in the forums lol wich would be breaking contest rules =P.

Guess tommarow ill spend another 8 hrs trying to find the last two page by page by page again......... Zzzzzz my wrist hurts too much from scrolling to check now lol.
