we should have a contest, see who has the best computer.  and have like a newegg certificate for the best, rules would be like has to be custom built and purchased through newegg.com.  give a little business and have a good prize for that person.  whatcha think?

Er....not so bad. 

This thread may give us a hint if it can't be realized. http://www.eggxpert.com/forums/thread/327838.aspx XD

need to contest ? rich ppl will win, for sure !

Wow~ That is just so true, it's amazing 

In fact, it's kinda depressing when you think about it for a while..

AH! But what happens when two people with infinite funds compete against each other? Only then do things get interesting!

There already is such a contest!! Join the EggXpert folding@home team!  Your contributions might save somebody's life someday or perhaps help find a cure for Alzheimer's.. How's that for a reward?

yes, more contest and more prizes and newegg.com. it  does  not  matter  who will  win the contest, just enjoy the process. the rich ppl will win?  nope,i am sure Bill Gates will not win it.

second it.

this kind of contest will make NE a better place. 

I think I like this idea!

But the first step is to compile a list of what Benchmarks to include. Benchmarks like SuperPi would be good because you don't have to be super rich to get a good score at it. All you need is a Mobo, CPU and RAM that work well together.

A few suggestions:

3DMark Vantage

3DMark 2006

SuperPi

3DMark 2001
