I NEEED an ATi coffee cup!!!

The USB light and 32Mb keyring would be me second choices....

Oh, and I'll guess the number is 42.

ebay them and give the money to one of the tsunami-related causes. Or give it all to me and I'll do it (except not for three weeks because I have exams, lol).

I'm sure they'd get quite a bit of money if pimped up to the max on lots of nerd sites. What do you ner...err, guys think? It'd be a good way to capitalise on guilt related to downloading too many tsunami vids.

Edit - nevermind, I hadn't noticed the IHV mints. I WANT I WANT GIMME.

 

[Thowllly]

Can't we have a random draw instead, I never have anything interesting to say... I would really like that usb drive, I'm actually to poor to buy one myself, even one that small...

I know, you can just send the usb drive to me, and then give the rest to DW

Good plan, but he'll have to send the mints to MuFu.

Dave, while I'd much rather have you'r children, I suppose I'll have to settle at a chance for your "cra..."

Give ya $100 for the whole lot! in monopoly money


edit:
oh yeah an d i deserve it most because my name is Dave, too! okayokay, it's David but the id part isnt really important except to itsself

 

[epicstruggle]

It saddens me that both Ati, and NV need to "bribe" people with these little trinckets. I wonder if by giving these things out they expect better press.

Dave, Im curious whats the best free item given to you by one of the companies you review?

Mints (NVIDIA) – Can’t vouch for the contents, don’t know how long they’ve been laying around

If you're unsure as to the nature of the mints (well, whether or not you'll survive after eating one), I'll eat them all at once and get video.

I LOVE GRAY PORN!!!!!!

PORNOS OF DEUS EX'S GRAYS ROCK MY NO MAN'S UNDERWEAR SUBTITLED PANTY LINED ANUS BLEEDING HOLE.

The USB light would be useful for me to use so I can look down my gential hole periodically while playing Painkiller.

Actually, I could run my own SLI tests by eating two NVIDIA mints, two ATI mints, and then an ATI and an NVIDIA mint and reporting what was the best...

You can run the benchmark by eating a mint and telling us the mesurment of the amount of explosive diarrhea of one mint vs the other.

[Druga Runda]

well there is something for everyone

my daughter might want to play with the mini car...

my wife needs the USB stick...

ATI and Nvidia mints

I could bring them to work and see what effect they have on the department

(and for me??? ) maybe having an ATI cup might magically make my wife pick some interest in games 8)

other than that... well if I win the shipment will be cheap (I might even be able to pick it up )

Benchmark the clocks, which ever one records an hours faster wins! We can even do three runs and take the average. Take out the batteries and reset the time between each run. And since the circuits are simple we can even check the hardware for any shader optimisations.
