Official Entry

Entering for the GTX 680 Superclocked. Really want to upgrade my HTPC as it's been sitting with no graphics card for over a month now, using Intel's HD4600 for now.

Entry

EU Entering for the GTX 680 Superclocked.

Thought Id have a go, if your not in it you cant win it eh

Reasons for entering, yes i would get a nice bit of kit and it would be nice to pass the goodwill on and give-away my old card to someone else who could do with it.

I would donate my current G Card to a better home, there's one or two less well families that i know would love it. I know one of them has an old 2900 pro, it would be a good upgrade. Good luck all entering and thanks very much for the opportunity :respect:

if you read the post regarding this most recent Gpu, he notes that if you are outside of the region, there MIGHT be a way for You to enter....use the "start conversation" function to PM him, and ask.

id take delivery for You if You Just need a location for it to go. I own my own home(well the bank does) and there is no issues with recieving packages. let me know if thats a possible solution for You, you just need to resolve any shipping fees.

Random Murderer · Sep 9, 2015

Whoa, another awesome GPU giveaway!
Not entering, the only system this would be an upgrade for is my father's, he's currently running a 6850. Regardless, he's here in the US too, and doesn't even come close to stressing his 6850.

So, all that said, thanks @Norton once again for keeping the giveaways alive, and thanks @Hugis for paying it forward!

MOAR?! Seriously?
I LOVE this community! :lovetpu:

tabascosauz · Sep 9, 2015

Thanks to @Norton and @Hugis for the giveaway. I did not expect one hot on the heels of the last one with the 780 Tis. I'm officially entering in this one. I'm going to see if this GTX 680 can find a home in my sig rig so I can get some Geforce love for myself after so long in the red camp. Probably not going to fold on this though; been dealing with the power bill recently, but it would displace my R7 265 which can go straight in next to the 280X to fold (no driver shenanigans needed).

Last one in some time for me. Next one (which apparently is coming soon) is bound to be awesome and I'll let everyone else have the opportunity. I've got everything I could possibly need. i5-650 is no longer up, but i5-760 is sitting there on the shelf; if any of you folders need it or if a giveaway requires, I'd be happy to give it away to a good cause. You don't get free integrated graphics with that one (not that the one on the 650 was functional anyways), but you get 2 extra cores for folding those proteins.

And yes, in case you were wondering, the UK is my home for the next few years, even though I am a Canadian. I can receive a package in the UK.

Want just to give my current 680 a friend, but certainly don't need. Hope the winner enjoys the card! It's still a performer!

Norton · Sep 10, 2015

*** UPDATE ***
A second GTX 680 has been added to giveaway to US/CA members courtesy of @bogmali

nice.

Toothless · Sep 10, 2015

Entering for the 680! Since there is two now there can be two happy winners!

If I get it, it'll go into a friend's build who is running a 4690k but with a r7 240 and honestly can't play the games she wants at all. With this, she can finally enjoy gaming with friends!

qu4k3r · Sep 10, 2015

- "official entry"
- Indicate which card you are entering for: US GTX 680
- Let us know what you would be upgrading from with this card: Point of View GTX 570 TGT UC
- Tell us why you need the extra graphics horsepower: Because after 4 years of USE and ABUSE my current gfx card does not perform as the first day with some games

Optional:
- Let us know what you will do with your old card: Keep it Folding at my 2nd machine, I can not get ride of it because has sentimental value. I Won it on a contest.
- Potluck- post anything you like (within TPU forum guidelines ofc): Sell a prize you won always brings bad luck

Thanks a lot to our sponsors @Hugis and @bogmali for the awesome donations!

blobster21 · Sep 10, 2015

wow 2 GTX680 in the pot ! that's insane :rockout:
