Video Cards, a love story

[lavaheadache]

This thread needs an embedded YouTube clip of a high end video card unboxing.

I love watching those.

If you want I can put my Titan back in the box and do a reenactment with paid actors and post it on youtube.

Remember when I got my Riva 128, the first real "3D" card. ♥♥♥

This calls for a Beach Boys song:

BEACH BOYS LYRICS - Good Vibrations

(Ahh)
(Ah, my my, what elation)
I don't know where but she sends me there
(Oh, my my, what a sensation)
(Oh, my my, what elation)
(Oh, my my, what)

Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin'

Ah yes, I remember one of my very first GPUs. I had an OEM machine my parents bought me, and my PC couldn't run Serious Sam very well. I traded a knife for a Geforce 256 (I think thats what it was, it had 32gb ram so not sure). Anyway, the game ran great and it was just awesome as hell. Those early days were great when I got to see games come to life for the first time.

Well, for GPU porn the new 780s are out, and EVGA has a nice design.

For your pleasure:

^^ I am trying to not look at that model..... ()
I don't need it, but man that card is a beauty and can probably overclock very nicely...
Credit card must stay in wallet..... 7950 still viable....ugh...

I love new hardware but only a new videocard can breathe new life into an uncompleted game and make it more fun to play again...at least initially.

Looks don't matter as much as performance. XFX DD looks nice too. Cools like garbage as hardware.fr showed with thermal imaging.
