According to the description, out of the 300 lucky users 30 will be selected based on their previous community contributions and beta participation, while the remaining 270 will be selected randomly out of every qualifying user.

GPU: some units with NVidia Titan, some GTX780, some GTX760, and some GTX660 CPU: some boxes with Intel i7-4770, some i5-4570, and some i3 RAM: 16GB DDR3-1600 (CPU), 3GB GDDR5 (GPU) Storage: 1TB/8GB Hybrid SSHD Power Supply: Internal 450w 80Plus Gold Dimensions: approx. 12 x 12. 4 x 2. 9 in high
