Yup you won. Gigabyte will do the logistics, so they'll send emails tomorrow probably.

Awesome. I've been using the same keyboard since 2002.

RazrLeaf · Jul 2, 2014

I'll fulfill my own request and say that the emails went out 8 hours ago.

Yeah, I got mine about eight hours ago.

Maban · Jul 26, 2014

Received it a couple days ago. The keyboard is pretty cool except for not being able to change the color of the backlight. Don't know if I'm ever going to use the mouse as I already have a Naga Epic.
