Sapphire Advent Calendar

Jimmy 2004 · Dec 3, 2006

For anybody interested in free gaming gear Sapphire is having a Christmas give away. Every day until December 25th they will be having a prize draw giving you the chance to win games, graphics cards or a Nintendo Wii. All you need to do is give your name, email address and the country you live in. As far as I can tell it is open to people in all countries.

In an effort to show appreciation for its loyal customers, Sapphire is playing Santa this Holiday season. As is tradition with the Advent Calendar, every day from Dec 1st until Dec 25th Sapphire will be reaching into the big red sack of holiday magic to give away prizes ranging from the latest and greatest graphics card the X1950 PRO or even a next generation game console such as the Nintendo Wii, to some exciting game titles to stuff the stocking.

Just visit their website and click on the "Seasons Greetings" animation. Unfortunately you need to enter every day you want to be in with a chance of winning, so if you want the best chance of getting a prize you'll have to submit your details every day.

Good luck!

For your birthday? Should have said so earlier, I would have bought you one. Now it's too late

Also, seems you haxxed your post count? Or will I find ~28K spam posts from you when I browse the forums further?

Seeing as every graphics card I have ever bought was from Sapphire, they better appreciate my loyal custom

Just Cause is a game - never actually tried it myself though. I assume it means full version as appose to demo version, but I'm still trying to win it even though I'd rather have an X1950!
