    Re: Features - Win the graphics card beast that is the ASUS ROG ARES!

    I can't afford £1,200 worth of graphics card because... my feet are on back to front so everytime I go for a job interview I have to paint a face on the back of my head, as you can imagine this looks a bit weird so prospective employers get a bit freaked out and never give me the job.
    It gets quite difficult meeting people with this condition, so my current girlfriend is my gaming pc. it/ She doesn't judge me or care what I look like or what arrangement my feet are attached to my body. but the problem is my current gpu is no longer up to the latest games so a mega whoopie doo Asus ares would make my life complete, If ONLY I could afford to buy one.....If only I could get a job so that I could save up to buy one [because if I had the money I surely would, damn my feet arrangement issues] because they look like an absolute bargain!

    Sorry everyone

    But a mistake was made with this competition and an entry form should have been created. This has now been done, but anyone who has already entered must re-enter using the form (visit the competition's article page for the form).

    It's fine to copy and paste your old entry, but to make sure we don't exclude you for nicking somebody else's entry, please make sure you submit your entry with the same email address as you use on the forum!

    We will be posting our favourites (and the overall winner) once the compo is over and the winner chosen.

    Cheers,
    Steve.

    Re: Features - Win the graphics card beast that is the ASUS ROG ARES!

    I can't afford a 1200 graphics card because I do not have the vital component for my home made time machine.

    If I had the component I would be able to travel 5 years in to the future where the card would only be worth £100 on e bay. Alas, if I only had the component... I don't suppose someone have a flux capacitor I could borrow or something just as powerful; like a £1200 graphics card for example?

    P.S
    You can have the time machine afterwards if you like I won't go out much after getting the GPU

    P.S.S
    I'll also go back and kill Hitler on the way if you like as an added bonus

    I can't afford £1,200 worth of graphics card because after reading this thread i am so depressed with most of the answers i have decided to give the money to the people who need it more than i need a super awesome beast of a dual gpu card

    Might want to change the competition, overclockers are selling it for £799 - I presume this must be at a loss, how else can they do it on a card with an RRP of so much?

    Does this have to be honest? I was kinda thinking of a deep kinda fiction.

    Note: It comes with no warranty
    Not sounding ungrateful but... is this normal for a competition prize?

    Well mine was a little fictional, I kinda thought that was expected, although someone who can honestly say they can't afford because they give every penny to starving paraplegic orphans is probably more deserving!

    The real reason (the Mrs bleeds me dry and my small budget which would never go that far anyway has already been blown for at least 6 months) is far too dull/mundane/common. I don't think my whole main PC is worth even half the £1200 lol
