EVGA geforce GTX 970 Giveaway! presented by GrimNeo

GrimNeo

Posting for free stuff!!!  :)

 

I don't know if I am deserving, but I would not consider myself "undeserving"... does that count?

 

I would be deserving because ... I am a relatively positive force in the LTT community. :huh:

Sorry. Really busy at work today. I will look at your link again. Also I did not get my money back yet. 390x delayed untill further notice.

 

Ah, I see. Damn that's rough. :( Any updates on that at all? I hope it gets fixed real soon, or the guy at least gets caught doing another scam and is punished for it. Stupid people make the same mistakes twice, so it is likely I suppose.

 

(just sent away the codes to ya! Enjoy. :) )

ty for giveaway bby <3

 

I entered for the hell of it. 

Only real bonus for me would be high OC and an extra .5 GB of memory bc 970 ~ 780. :P

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

Oh boy the old "reason why I deserve this" entry. Well, I don't deserve it; I don't have ANY reasons to deserve this. I'm just submitting my name and hoping that I am randomly picked. 

:P Just want to make sure the card gets used by the winner.

 

Can we stop here? I feel this is going nowhere. I have my eyes set on an i7 4790k, and a z97 board. 

Do it! I got the Gigabyte z97 Gaming 7 board. I heard the ASRock Extreme 6 is good as well. Save $30 off combo deal at Microcenter if you have one. http://www.microcenter.com/site/brands/intel-processor-bundles.aspx

 

Wow really nice of you to do such a large giveaway. Cancer is not a fun thing, we think my mother might have it but she refuses to do any testing to see. Glad you don't have it.

 

On topic, I would as many others have said giveaway my old card to the forum (660 ti which runs pretty cool), it would be my last card before going though university. Got to love planning for a masters... 

 

Once again you're awesome for doing a giveaway like this. 

Please have your mom checked. The sooner the better. Also thanks for entering.

Thank you. They will call me tomorrow about the claim. My dad said he will give me $150 if I don't get my money back since he forced me to call the scammer in the first. You know that rule about parents make rules for their kids. It is also my fault as well but I can't just really say F U dad and slam the door on him.

If you absolutely needed a reason from me the only one I can really think of is because I need (not want) NEED to play Just Cuz 3 in 60fps :P

Now, you know what you can expect from these barbarians. They are a race of rabid BASTARDS that will fight us tooth and nail! But they don't know what they're up against. Cyrodiil, is CIVILIZATION! Cyrodiil, is ORDER! Cyrodiil is POWER! And out here, WE. ARE. CYRODIIL.

Nice. I have the 4790k as well. I plan overclocking when I get a new case.

Sorry to hear about it. They misdiagnosed my sister's bf dad. He had cancer really bad and it could have been prevented. He died from it.

Thanks Grim, I am happy to hear you are doing well and from what I read the lump was benign (please correct me if I am wrong). Cancer is terrible, My father passed away from it when I was young. Honestly, I can't say I deserve this card. I definitely want this card. I haven't done anything charitable in a while. I think the last thing I have done that was charitable was the Santa 5K Shuffle in 2012 raising money for the Salvation Army. Giving tech support doesn't count in my books... cause I love being a know-it-all.

 

Anyways, good luck fellow LTT members.

=( Not all programs use OpenCL, most prefer CUDA. a 970 would help me with that.

goodluck

I love to sign up.

 

Reason:

You know, I can describe a lot of reasons why I think I should have it. But honestly, I love to let others enjoy the benefits of a new graphics card. As for myself, I love it also, dealing with low end graphic cards all my life, it's very hard to play certain games that I've always wanted to try out. I don't have a lot of income for a brand new build of a PC. I ran my old Year 2000 PC for almost 10 years, and swapping parts back and forth, and only having 24 GB max. Having a graphic card at that high end would lower the cost of building a new PC dramatically. But I've always been the type to look at the needs of others. So, if there's any body else who would appreciate the card more, and need it more than I, then I am welcome to give up my spot. Other wise, I would also love a chance at it.

Glad you got through it man!

 

Reason: I would either upgrade my PC (so I could run it in SLI) or most likely just give it to a friend who doesn't have the best GPU. :)

 

Good luck to everyone! :P

@GrimNeo : Yay ! I love EVGA coolers ! 

 

The reason as to why I should win ... Hmm ... What would be the least greedy way of saying I want it real bad ? Please ?

 

Edit : And also it would be awesome to have a graphics card for once ... 

... Life is a game and the checkpoints are your birthday , you will face challenges where you may not get rewarded afterwords but those are the challenges that help you improve yourself . Always live for tomorrow because you may never know when your game will be over ... I'm totally not going insane in anyway , shape or form ... I just have broken English and an open mind ...

I don't really deserve to win this, but that won't stop me from entering.  Thanks for the free stuff to LTT members, and good luck with your health issues.

Building a pc for my "younger" sister. She isn't particularly tech savy so dealing with an amd card isn't a very good option imho and her old Dell inspirion is an absolute pos. If I get this it'll really power up her comp for years to come.

(Otherwise she will likely be using the broadwell distrete graphics)

Hello. This is me, and that is my face (not really).

 

Once again, thank you for your generosity!
