    The HEXUS forum HTPC giveaway



    This one's for you, fellow HEXITES! To once again say thank you for making our forum community one of best destinations on the web, we've teamed up with AMD to give two forum members the chance to win an entire HTPC upgrade bundle!



    Yep, that's what you call a goody bag - and we have two of these bundles up for grabs! Each one consists of ...take a deep breath ... an AMD A4-4000 APU, an MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 motherboard, a SilverStone ML03B chassis, 8GB of AMD Performance memory, a 128GB SanDisk SSD, a low-profile Scythe Shuriken CPU cooler, a LEPA 400W power supply and an 80mm Enermax T.B.Silence PWM fan!

    Two of these awesome HTPC bundles are waiting to be won, but remember, this competition is exclusive to HEXUS forum members!

    To enter, you need to be an existing forum member with at least 25 posts, and if you meet that criteria, all you need to do to be in with a chance of winning is leave a post in this forum thread and you'll automatically be entered into our prize draw.

    It's a fantastic chance to win some new hardware courtesy of AMD and its partners, and we have one only small requirement; if you're a winner, you must come back and tell us what you make of the prizes with a reader review.

    Please please please please! I haven't wanted to win Hexus stuff this much since they were giving away (and I won!) a Skip Doctor CD Repair kit back in 2002 I think! Yeah it didn't work, but the winning was exciting.
