TechPowerUp Announces GPU-Z 0.8.4 and PowerColor Fury X Giveaway

[ReHWolution]

We all want to win a free one! However, I meant: don't compare your VAT included price with their VAT excluded price xD

""so price in the USA inc sales tax at 10% = $715""
Still on sale in UK at £599.99 inc VAT
call it £600 (its only a 1p)
£600 = $944.82

I think i did compare them both with appropiate sales tax included

'your entry was received successfully' seemed awfully fast, as if that's hardcoded on submit, rather than a ping back from the server, i hope it sent fine

I used a PowerColor AX3870 for five and a half years. The fan lived a nicotine-stained, cat fur infested life for 4 and a half of them... had to zip tie a 120mm on that beast until a friend gave me his 'old' 5870. It was a damn basic card, but it was a beast. Would buy one again, but I would rather win one instead.

what did the poor cat smoke?

I'm in for the win.

same thing i smoked... just second hand, lol....

 

[DeathtoGnomes]

real smart, tell off a mod....

no one got the joke.. sorry.

 

[Steevo]

Entered, there was no question about performance though.

 

[manofthem]

to be eligible to win you just need to get the memory bandwidth question correct

And it's a great way to make me feel stupid. I hope I wasn't the only one that had to google this info. I entered but since I didn't know this, I feel I wouldn't deserve to win But thanks TPU, we appreciate the giveaway!


One little thing: I feel like out of the 4 choices, what should have been included is "overall performance" because that's what I consider most, then stuff like noise and power.

no one got the joke.. sorry.

probably 90% of the people on here got it.... not that you were actually telling anybody to stfu, but, if you were, i've heard people say a lot worse to others in here...

Overall performance would indicate the overall performance.... meaning everything--noise, power consumption, overclockability, looks, and of course the overall performance (lol)....

I would think overall performance wouldn't include things like that since W1zz's "overall performance" pages in his reviews don't consider things like that, but I see your point. So I guess I mean "brute GPU performance" or the like.

I suppose I should have told you I was just being a smart ass.... I knew what you meant But yeah, I was wondering why there wasn't a "performance" option in there as well... Probably because they don't want to make light of the Fury X's "horrible" performance..... not that it was really that horrible.

It's all good

Probably because they don't want to make light of the Fury X's "horrible" performance..... not that it was really that horrible.

Sure the performance could have been better, but all cards could. I'd be stoked to win one of these. I really love the small pcb. I was just looking through W1zz's review again, and this time I admired his pics and shots, especially the small pcb, looked gorgeous!

Awesome giveaway!
Good luck everyone!

 

[Mussels]

I can't open the normal version installer either.

run as admin? redownload? working peachy here on various systems.

 

[R-T-B]

You can keep it, not interested in this half baked product with coil wine, screaming pump and no real OC.

I am going for the 980Ti.

Like you wouldn't take it if you won it...

Count me in for the giveaway. I use gpu-z to figure out what hunks of garbage the previous tech at work put in our solidworks workstations. hope that doesn't break the terms of use for gpu-z...

 

[iSkylaker]

I wouldn't mind getting one of those. Thanks for the giveaway.

 

[_-SaVaGe-_]

Doesnt work for me either, GPU-Z starts normally but when i want to switch tabs it just freezes. Dont having this problem with earlier versions. Nice giveaway wich you cant even join! Great job

it's coded on a successfully received submittion, but send me your name in a pm if you want, i can check

such commercial use is perfectly ok for GPU-Z, just dont tell your customers "oh here i made this for you, it'll be $1999"

waAAAAAT??? you did have to google it!!! shame on you @manofthem

sidenote ... for me power consumption is last and noise was 1st tho no real order for me as long as it work and feel like a upgrade over my current card i don't mind the noise or power eaten (eck! i have a reference cooler 290 ... and she's only under a waterblock since last november)

 

[W1zzard]
