Alright, so picture this: NVIDIA’s doing this wild giveaway thing, and it’s all about DOOM. Yeah, that game. So they’re offering up a custom RTX 5090 GPU. I mean, it’s pretty much a beast of a graphics card, but what makes this one special is it’s wrapped in some crazy DOOM: The Dark Ages theme. Why DOOM? Why not, right? It’s like a nod to all those pixel demons we blasted back in the day, except now it’s next-level with ray tracing and whatnot.
And, oh! This isn’t just one of those “slap a sticker on it and call it a day” deals. Nah, they’re celebrating because this new DOOM game is launched with native ray tracing, NVIDIA DLSS 4, and something called Reflex — basically wizardry that makes it look like a movie while you’re running around frantically trying not to get smoked by monsters. And this 5090, let’s face it, is like the Ferrari of GPUs. You want max graphics? This is your ticket.
So, what do you need to do to snag this? Get ready for this groundbreaking process: like the post and comment #RTXON. That’s it! Once you do, you’re tossed into the virtual hat. Now, it sounds simple, except for those of you chilling in certain places like parts of Oz, Quebec, and some spots in the Middle East and Asia — sorry, you’re outta luck. It’s complicated legal stuff, I assume.
Oh, speaking of value — this card is like $2599 all said and done. Insane, right? Yet, still less than some of those other fancy RTX 5090 versions. A bargain, if you ignore the fact that you could probably buy a used car for that price.
The contest is running from May 15th early morning for us PST folks until May 22nd, late afternoon. NVIDIA will hit you up via email or private message if you win. Then you’ve got 48 hours to claim it, or they pick someone else. So maybe check your spam folder just in case?
Anyway, whether you’re a DOOM junkie, a GPU collector, or just someone who likes the idea of owning something hardly anyone else has, this might be your jam. Good luck! Or not… who knows how these things really shake out?
