VOID WHERE PROHIBITED — USA ONLY
NOTE TO INTERNATIONAL VIEWERS: I would love to make this an international giveaway, but shipping a PC globally is EXTREMELY difficult and costly. Kyle and I will literally be pooling the money we would have spent shipping a PC globally and simply doing an international cash giveaway for non-US viewers — more info as we get closer to the charity live stream!
You need to visit the Awesome Hardware Extra Life 2020 Charity page to enter — DONATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED BUT ARE APPRECIATED!
Giveaway ends 12/18/2020 at 11:59AM PT — winner will be notified via email.
PRIZE MUST BE CLAIMED WITHIN 24 HOURS OR ANOTHER WINNER WILL BE PICKED.
