    Hey, no South-America option? :(
    "Elsewhere" doesn't sound nice.

    PS: I'll sue you for discrimination!.... J/K :hehe: ... Anyway, I did the entire survey. Go BitTech! Everyday it gets better! :clap:

    Sent, although I thought the question about how I would describe myself didn't have enough options, I wouldn't have really described myself as any of them.

    Done. I'm hoping that using my screen name rather than real name is not a disqualifier. But, then again, I would've filled out the survey even if prizes were not involved.

    yes I am in the US and its slow... so annoying lol I come less to the site now ~_~ and ya for the people that say its faster I was about to say well thats probably because your closer now lol...

    whats weird is I have been to other UK sites that are based server is in the UK and they load a lot faster then this does, the home page, articles and when posting threw the articles is slow, everything else seems to load alright.

    ...depends on the situation, if the PSU is capable of handling the new system or not. no need to trash a good psu. but I guess that question is in there for certain PSU brand sponsors, and for them a 3rd answer does not really help much with marketing. dang - I just owned myself :eek:

    good survey - I have a few niggles - the how would you describe yourself needed an "all of the above" and gaming time for me is less the 4hrs a week sometime, but I guess thats just me...anyway, enjoy!

    I just assumed that the currency listed (sorry, but I don't know if it's a pound or euro) was worth about 2 USD and since I didn't spend more than $100 on any components last year that section was pretty easy.

    With the currency conversions I used google! Also, in terms of paying attention to advertising, I don't at all, 1) Because it's specific to the UK and 2) Because I only pay attention to items that score well with bit tech. Also, things like gpu buying are done after research, not because random brand released something new and it has an ad... If only recommended products were advertised it would work really well.

    It's funny how in one case "market research" can be "an invasion of privacy <insert indignant rant>" and in another it's: "Aww, they care about us <insert warm fuzzy feeling here>".

    Anyway - completed :thumb:

    Hoping I win prize 3 or lower! It would have been good to have an "Any other comments" box at the end. I will just put them here though

    PSUs - it depends if there are good enough. And evolutionary change doesn't need a new one usually (e.g. new graphcs card) but a whole new computer might.

    Advertising - some are really silly, like the "Be an environmental overclocker" one. I can't remember who the advert is for, but it annoys me! There is also the advert for an 8400GS, claiming to give the graphics than you desire, or something similar. What!?!

    Email - no real need really, I spend so long on B-T!

    There is no age or region limit on prizes. I would ask that you fill in your real name as it other wise makes it difficult to contact you if you win.

    You do not had a general comments box for specific feedback. Are the result automated into little pie charts? and your not reading each individual one?

    Just curious.

    forgot to mention under the question do you live with? there was options for alone, with parents and with friends should have added with flatmates (moved in after meting one of the flatmates once and not meting the other 2)

    Done.

    Wasn't sure what to put about how much i use different sections of the site since I never visit them, but read the articles from the forum.

    Also, under how to improve Bit, i put "Beat Joe more often" :p
