Default HL Spotlight System


Featured Systems so far:
Yellowhello
RAID

HardwareLogic is always looking for new, interesting content to keep you (the readers) excited and coming back for more. After two years, we've gathered quite the group of forum members with a very unique range of systems. Our forum community has grown into a surprisingly informal, close-knit group of guys and gals who all get excited in one way or another about computers and technology. We start and carry on conversations about everything under the sun, but very rarely do we get a close look at the systems these people have put their heart and soul (and hard earned money) into building, maintaining, and modifying; that is why we are happy to bring you the HardwareLogic Spotlight System! This is your chance to stand in the spotlight and get a place on the front page to show off your pride and joy.

We will feature as many systems as possible, all we need from you is a few pictures of your prized machine and the answers to a few questions about your particular system. There are absolutely no minimum requirements for the Spotlight System, just answer the questions and get at least two high-quality pictures of the rig (one of the inside and one outside) and you're in! Of course, the more pictures the better.

If you would like to be considered for Rig of the Week, send a personal message or e-mail to myself with some pictures of your build and complete responses to our interview questions:
  • Full list of specifications (including cooling, peripherals, etc).
  • What are the primary uses of this system?
  • How well does this system perform its duties (is it fast enough)?
  • What is/are your favorite component(s) and why?
  • Was there any particular focus you had in mind when piecing this computer together (low noise, overclocking potential, good looks, etc)? Did you succeed?
  • If you had to give one (or two) pieces of advice to new users looking to build a similar system as yours, what would it be?

You are welcome to add more information to the article if you feel your system requires more of an introduction or explanation. Of course, if you have any questions, comments, or ideas, please post them here!

How could it not get picked! It's likely one of the best looking rig I've see on this site so far.




If there is a final hour, let's hope for a higher power. One by one, and two by two, I have ammo, what about you?

That's the beauty of this little project, EVERYONE can/will be picked! Just take a little initiative to send me the info and your system can be on the front page!

So was Communism look how well that worked out.

Seriously though, this is not a Mod contest, so your rig doesn't have to be totally pimped out to qualify. Please submit your rig even if you don't think it's worthy. If you built your rig (even if you had help) then it qualifies. If you submit your rig and it's not featured right away, don't be discouraged. We will post them as soon as we can (bribing the staff is encouraged).
