From PETEvsDRM's "Who wants a free 7900GT?"

Quote :

Heh... Now I almost feel bad for selling my 7800GS. :oops: Lots of folks out there that could seriously use an AGP upgrade. Kudos to you, Pete!

Well... My 7800GS AGP buyer backed out, so let's keep this going. Same rules as before.

1. I am not rich myself, so you have got to live in the US, unless you want to pay for shipping yourself.

2. Pictures of the inside of your rig will help. If you have a handwritten note that says WolfShadw in the picture that would go a long way towards proving it is a real pic.

3. You can't be a rich guy who is just too lazy to upgrade, you have to have some reason why you can't get it yourself.

4. umm, I know this is kind of obvious, but you have to have an AGP slot....

So let's keep this going.

Entries must be in no later than Midnight EDT June 18th. Package will ship June 23rd. Good luck and again, Kudos to PETEvsDRM and Space1Monkey!

The Card Itself

And btw... the "Win This Card" promo on the box is just a coincidence! 8)

Wow. As much as I would like to enter, I can't.

I have a PCI-E MB.

But anyways, good luck to all and keep the giveaways alive.

My current system:

Athlon XP 2500+
1 gig RAM
6600GT
ECS KT 600A

As pointed out by later posts, if the system were really old, the potential of the card may be wasted. I think the 7800 would complement this system well. (Maybe I'll get to see those pretty explosions in COH :p)

Firsteval, is nice from you to give away this card for free. Once again I have to congratulate another user from THG forums for doing this as they can sell this cards or just build another pc but they decide to give them for free which is something that u dont see everywhere.

Good luck to everybody and congrats to whoever wins this beast of a card.

Well I guess I could give this a shot...

My system:
Sony OEM box
Intel P4 2.6GHz
Asus P4sd-VX (It does have an AGP slot)
768Mb (3 sticks mismatched memory)
GeForce FX 5500

Here's the story, Im 15 years old, flat broke, and I love gaming on my computer. I am working a summer job at Dairy Queen, but i get paid minimum wage and the money is being saved for college and other future expenses. After my XBox broke, all I have is my PC to game on, but sadly I can't play ANY new games on it. I keep getting hyped up about new releases, but after buying and installing them I find out my system can only run (not play) these games at 800x600 at under 15fps, which isn't playable by anyone's standards. Right now I'm stuck to just playing Counter Strike and other low graphics intensive games. I would truely and honestly appreciate this card. Thanks for your generosity!

Well... I really expected a bit more of a response. I thought maybe since the title of the thread didn't say, "FREE" I wasn't getting the hits. Either way, we have two candidates so far (no worries, guys. You're still in the running). Let's see if we can get a few more over the weekend! Good Luck, everyone!

ditto

i suggest you change the topic :lol: :lol:

Well, I would like to commend you for this act, I knew what this thread would be, because I followed PETEvsDRM's thread... It's nice to see that this trend is continuing, especially on a practical level, of cards that can - for the most part - keep up with todays games. This is pretty cool... One thing thats seems a big funky though, is that the people that are most deserving might have a system that will bottleneck this card alot. but whatever, in the case of SPACE1MONKEY it was a good addition to the rig... Well, good luck to those that are deserving! :wink:

I guess I will give it a try so here we go. About 6 months ago I started buying parts to build a new computer. However, I recently inherited a 97 Saturn with 200k mile that doesn't run so all the money I now get goes to my car to get it running. Right now I am having to use my hp 2800+ with a nvidia 6200. I have recently started to play Far Cry but I can only manage to get about 20-25fps on low settings which completely sucks. Any ways here is my HP. Oh and good luck to who ever wins.
