How to Enter:

G5 Review Promotion entries are limited to one (1) per person, per household. EVGA is not responsible for Internet submissions not received due to technical/transmission problems beyond its reasonable control, including failure to recognize a valid serial number or proof of purchase. To enter:

1. Log in to your EVGA.com account. If you do not currently have an EVGA account, you will need to first create a free account at https://secure.evga.com/US/login.asp.
2. Register your Qualifying Product at https://www.evga.com/support/register.asp and carefully select your place of purchase.
3. Upload your proof-of-purchase from your authorized reseller here
4. After registering your Qualifying Product and uploading your proof-of-purchase, you may now enter the G5 Review Promotion.
5. Write an honest review of your G5 SuperNOVA Power Supply at your place of purchase, if you haven’t already. Although there are conditions to what is considered an acceptable review - described in more detail below – leaving a less than glowing review will not affect a participant’s submission.
6. Visit the G5 Review Promotion landing page at https://www.evga.com/articles/01363/ and enter the information requested. The requested information includes:
   1. Your username at your place of purchase.
      • *NOTE – This is not your EVGA.com username. This is to help us identify your review. We recommend to make your username public for your review, if you have a choice.
   2. Direct link to your review, if possible.
      • Most places of purchase allow you to link directly to your review. Sometimes this is located on your user profile page on that website, a section where you can view your reviews, and sometimes an item in the review section of the product may link directly there, such as the review title, username, or other piece of text. If we cannot locate your review, we cannot verify or approve your submission.
   3. A copy of your review text.
      • This is also to help us find your review. Do not write a new review in this box. This box is only to place a copy of the text we’ll find at your review from the place of purchase. If the copy of the text does not match your review from your place of purchase, your submission may be disqualified.
7. After the previous steps are completed, review, agree, check the necessary boxes, and then submit your entry.
8. EVGA will review submissions for verification in the order received. EVGA will check the information provided to see if it can be verified. If verified, EVGA will review to ensure that it complies with the review requirements below. Finally, if approved, EVGA will distribute EVGA Bucks in the amount of 25% of the purchase price of the power supply. Purchase price does not include taxes, fees, or shipping.
9. A short waiting period of 45 days from the date of purchase, not from the date of G5 Review Promotion submission, is required to receive EVGA Bucks. Once the waiting period expires, EVGA Bucks will be paid out within 1-3 business days.

Review Requirements:

The G5 Review Promotion has two main requirements for the review – 1) participants must provide an honest review of their G5 SuperNOVA power supply, and 2) the review must show some degree of effort beyond a simple like or dislike of the G5 SuperNOVA power supply.

Participants should use their own words to describe their experiences with their G5 SuperNOVA power supply. A negative review will not harm your chance of winning. A barebones review, or one that appears to only contain a conclusion and little substance, may be disqualified.

Participants must keep their posted review intact throughout the promotional period. If a participant deletes or substantially removes the review used to submit for the G5 Review Promotion, then the entry may be subject to disqualification.

Additional Terms and Exclusions for Submissions, Verifications, and Approval:

By participating in the G5 Review Promotion, participant acknowledges, understands, and agrees that EVGA has the right to approve, disqualify, or exclude any review for any reason, at its sole discretion. With that said, EVGA agrees that it will review submissions in good faith, including instances where participant may not have submitted all necessary information, provided incomplete information, or failed to follow all rules of the G5 Review Promotion.

The review process requires two steps, 1) verify that the participant made a review that matches both available and provided information, and 2) approve the submission if it also complies with the Terms and Conditions of the G5 Review Promotion.

EVGA may decline to verify submissions for the following reasons including, but not limited to:

• Username is “Anonymous” or not verifiable.
• Review cannot be identified based on submitted information.
• Review content submitted through the G5 Review Promotion page does not match the review content linked to on the authorized reseller’s page.
• No “verified purchase” (or similar) mark on a submitted review, if the authorized reseller normally marks customer reviews this way.
• Review is only provided in the text box on the submission page.
• The same review has been submitted by another participant

EVGA may decline to approve submissions for the following reasons including, but not limited to:

• The proof-of-purchase does not match the authorized reseller, is a corrupt image, or otherwise does satisfy standard EVGA proof-of-purchase requirements.
• The review does not address the product.
• The review gives excessive weight to factors unrelated to the product or product’s performance, including shipping issues, delivery issues, pricing, or a discussion about the authorized reseller.
• Vulgar, obscene, or other inappropriate language or content used in the review.

Prizes and Odds:

The Grand Prize for the G5 Review Promotion is EVGA Bucks in the amount of 25% of the purchase price of the respective EVGA G5 SuperNOVA power supply owned and registered by the winner, as verified by a valid proof-of-purchase uploaded to EVGA.com. Purchase price will be determined based on the price of the EVGA G5 SuperNOVA power supply listed on the participant’s proof-of-purchase, and will not include shipping, taxes, fees, or other services offered by the merchant. For the purpose of calculating EVGA Bucks awarded, one EVGA Buck will be awarded per unit of currency spent (e.g. $1 USD, $1 CAD, etc.), regardless of region or currency. Currency will be determined by the proof-of-purchase. EVGA has the right to select a substitute winner in the event of a disqualification. Each Grand Prize is valued at $1 (USD). There are a total of two hundred (200) Grand Prizes available through the EVGA G5 Review Promotion. The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received.

Winner selection and notification:

Winners of the G5 Review Promotion will be selected by verifying participant’s submissions and by approving the submission. Winners will be notified via their provided email on participant’s account at EVGA.com within three (3) business days following the expiration of the 45 day waiting period. EVGA shall have no liability for a winner's failure to receive notices due to spam filters, junk e-mail or other security settings, or for a winners' provision of incorrect or otherwise non-functioning contact information. If the selected winner cannot be contacted, is ineligible, fails to claim the prize within 7 days from the time award notification was sent, prize may be forfeited and an alternate winner selected.

Participants are only eligible to win once through this promotion. Submitting additional reviews, will not increase your chances of winning.

EVGA is not responsible for and shall not be liable for late, lost, misdirected, or unsuccessful efforts to claim prizes.
