Ugh, okay, so here’s the scoop. NVIDIA’s giving away this crazy custom RTX 5090 GPU, all decked out in some medieval DOOM theme. Imagine dragons and fireballs or something plastered on your graphics card. I stumbled on this news like, “Why is this a thing?” but hey, DOOM fans are probably drooling.
So apparently, NVIDIA tweeted this announcement — “Stand and Fight for your chance” or something equally dramatic. They’re celebrating this new DOOM game with all its fancy graphics stuff like ray tracing and DLSS 4. No idea what those mean? Just know it’s a big deal if you’re a gamer.
The new game, “DOOM: The Dark Ages,” just dropped. And guess what? People already love it. Makes sense, I guess; it’s the sequel to DOOM Eternal. Visuals are supposed to be mind-blowing, especially if you’re playing on this giveaway GPU. But here’s the catch for us regular folks: you gotta like their social post and drop a “#RTXON” comment to be in the running for this gadget.
Don’t go racing to tag your Aussie or Quebec pals, though. Yep, they’re excluded, along with folks from the Middle East and some places in Asia. Why? Who knows.
The card itself is priced at $1999 — a whole chunk of change — but add the custom wrap, and we’re talking $2599. A bit mind-boggling, isn’t it? But it’s still a steal compared to some other 5090s out there. Anyway, the contest runs from May 15th to May 22nd, 2025. You win, you get notified via email — and you’ve got 48 hours to claim it. Missed it? Tough luck, I guess.
There you have it. You’re either jumping into the giveaway fray or you’re like me: bewildered and a little amused by the hoopla.
