Have you seen his upcoming project with 8 980 Tis?
Lucky bastard

I know Linus made a video on it but I want to make a guide on how to get them via email. Since NVIDIA sent me a free 980 Ti for a folding project. I will talk you though the process.
First of all, do NOT contact the general/ support emails of companies. They will most likely put down your request or tell you to contact someone else. Contact the marketing and sales team of a company. I for example sent an email directly to the CEO of NVIDIA ( as they do not have a general marketing contact) and 2 weeks later their head of UK marketing contacts me personally saying he can send over a 980 Ti over. Generally speaking do not use live chat if it is for general enquirers, only use it if your emails have not been replied to and kindly request that they send your details to the marketing team and do not spam them with sponsorship requests as it will most likely piss them off. If they do not reply via email, Facebook messenger is another option.
Second of all, if you do not have a big viewerbase like Linus or have not done a sponsored project before tell the companies why your project is interesting and why you are doing it. I for one am doing a folding project to honour a friend who passed away from undiagnosed brain cancer. 
Also first contact smaller companies first as they are more likely to accept. Then you can use them as an asset when trying to get bigger companies on board. E.g if I email gigabyte and I can tell them I have Watercooling UK on board.  At least then bigger companies have proof and then have less reason to reject you.
Thridly do not make your emails excessively long or short. Try and strike a perfect balance and try and include all the relevant facts. Always keep a kind and professional tone and end with Kind Regards and Thank You so at least then they know you mean business. Always end with ' I will email you with more details when you reply' so you open up more chance so the company has more reason to reply and get to know you and your project better. Even if they reject it will be after several emails rather than one swift rejection which will make you feel less sad and desperate. 
Tip 4: if they send you a marketing email, keep it. Even if they say no, try again after a while and after you have more companies are on board. Patience is a virtue  
 
I hope I kept this guide short and concise,and I will add more stuff over time. 
Please leave a comment and I will reply ASAP
Sorry if there are any errors as I am typing this up on my iPad 

U can buy my 980 off me if you like 

I was going to get a 290 for my current system before i got a good deal on the 980 

Monitor is crap. gonna sell my 980 to get a nice one, hopefully g-sync 

Yep. 
I am going to use it for INTELligent purposes and for a folding project i AMDoing 

Yeah i asked for a non-reference and the Marketing Manager said that they only have reference as they build them directly and send them off at the UK HQ

Since i am doing the folding PC build and NVIDIA and OCUK are on board, should i contact these guys to see if i can do it in their desk?

Looks like a great alternative to the now discontinued Red Harbinger Desk 

Your parents considered getting you a tutor? If not, you can always self teach with online lessons and revision guides 

Check what exam boards you use and look at the exam specification to see what exactly you have to learn 

LOL a simple news article can turn into an all-out war 

True, Apple's iPhone lineup should look like this:
32GB 
128GB 
256GB 
 

This would go great in a system with some Polaris GPUs
 
 

Do you need to upgrade now? AMD Zen looks good 

NVIDIA personally contacted me about a folding project i was planning to honour a friend who had passed away from undiagnosed brain cancer 

Wow, i was hoping for a better launch of DX12 games

No, for folding purposes as i am using my system as a prototype before i build a folding system for charity to give away

Might paint it black and fool people that i have a Titan X. TBH they are basically the same thing except half VRAM and 256 less cores 

turn fan to 100% on the 980 and listen...that's how loud it will be.

Told them about my charity project. They agreed to send out a card for my rig so i can test and configure folding correctly before i build the final systems.
Read the thread for my idea
