Alright, let’s dive into this — you know how it goes. I see NVIDIA’s doing a giveaway, and it’s like they’ve just painted the perfect unicorn with their brand new RTX 5090 GPU wrapped in this DOOM: The Dark Ages theme. Seriously, if you’re one of those hardcore DOOM fans, you’re probably losing it right now. Or maybe not. Hard to tell.
Anyway, so NVIDIA’s out here, tweeting like there’s no tomorrow, saying they’ve got this one-off RTX 5090 up for grabs. They’re doing it to celebrate, I dunno, something fancy like ray tracing and DLSS 4 + Reflex. Shiny things for sure.
The game’s just dropped today—DOOM: The Dark Ages. People on Steam are already showering it with stars. It’s following on from DOOM Eternal, which everyone loved back in 2020. They’re saying this new one’s got graphics that’ll blow your mind, and to really crank that up, you’d need the RTX 5090. Apparently, it’s the top dog for maxing out settings. But you knew that, didn’t you?
Oh, and their tweet’s a riot. It’s all like, “Stand and Fight for a chance to win” with some emojis. It’s like, you wanna enter? All you’ve gotta do is like the post and drop a #RTXON in the comments. Simple, but is it? Who knows if everyone gets it.
These special edition GPUs aren’t new for them, but this one’s different—less of that space to show off the DOOM art. Which could be a bummer if you’re into that sort of thing. Rules say to like and comment, and just like that—bam!—you’re in the running. But of course, not for everyone. Certain places, sorry, you’re out. Quebec’s a no-go. Parts of Australia and some bits of Asia and the Middle East too. Bummer, huh?
Right, onto the nitty-gritty. This GPU, fancy-schmancy Founders Edition, costs a cool $1999, then toss in that $600 wrap, and you’re looking at about $2599 total. Still not as much as some custom ones out there. Who knew, right?
Contest kicks off at 6:00 AM PST on May 15th, 2025, and wraps up at 5:00 PM on the 22nd. They’ll ping the winner through email or DM. And then? There’s a countdown—48 hours to claim your souped-up piece of tech or it vanishes into the ether.
So, good luck to the brave souls entering this chaotic GPU sweepstakes. May the odds be ever in your favor or whatever they say.
