Since its creation, Randy "SoLe" Hamama's recurring column on community hardware has been one of the most well-received set of articles at FPSLabs. After a brief hiatus for school, Randy is back in action and ready to start taking submissions for the next issue. Before you send in your information, please make sure to check previous issues to see exactly what kind of specs and settings we would like from you. This just speeds up the process and makes everything a lot easier for everyone involved.

Randy will be working on multiple issues simultaneously, so if you do not get chosen for the first of the upcoming issues do not get discouraged, you may be included in another issue very soon! While for suspense reasons we cannot reveal which professional gamers will be included in the upcoming issue, we assure you they are well-respected and successful people. So start sending in your information today and you might see yourself featured in an FPSLabs article in the near future!
