Nvidia is hyping everyone up for Cyberpunk 2077 with a limited-edition GPU – that you can win

The special edition GeForce RTX 2080 Ti is limited to only 77 individual units and you might be lucky enough to win one.

While everyone is exceptionally excited for Cyberpunk 2077 to launch later this year, there are at least a few people who’re holding their breath. While the “PC Master Race” is sure to jump up and down while proclaiming their devices to be the best at playing CDPR’s latest RPG, I’m fairly confident in saying many of those people are very nervous that they won’t be able to run it. Ah, the wonders of modular hardware! Cyberpunk is no doubt going to be pushing hardware to the absolute limits so prepare the inevitable combustion of your older graphics cards. Not to worry though, Nvidia knows you’re stressing and they’ve got a plan. A limited-edition plan, but still.

Announced last night on Twitter, the special Cyberpunk 2077 branded version of the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti will soon be released into the wild. Only catch is that you won’t actually be able to purchase it. See, when I said this was a limited edition thing I mean it’s very limited edition. Only 77 are being produced and the only way you’ll be able to get your hands on one is if you’re lucky enough to win one.

It’s your typical Twitter lucky draw. All you have to do is retweet the video of the graphics card, tag a friend and use the hashtag #RTXOn to have your name thrown into the hat of fortune. If you’re lucky enough to have your name pulled, then you and your friend will be rewarded with the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Cyberpunk 2077 Edition. 77 isn’t neatly divisible by two, so who knows what they’ll do with one remaining card. What have you got to lose, right? Might as well pray to the deity of luck RNGesus and hope that his shiny rays of fortune shine upon your Twitter account.

    Uhm…might be wrong but checked over on Nvidia’s page on the terms and conditions for the competition and no African country’s are on the list….sad, but hey, might be easier to win the Lotto at this point than winning one of these GPU’s.

      I’d rather win the GPU, they’re worth more than the Lotto jackpot

        I’ve heard that when you insert it into your computer, it will purr suggestively to you, and vow to be your waifu forever!

    “Only catch is that you won’t actually be able to purchase it.” Commercialism: A system where I am genuinely upset that I won’t get a chance to purchase something I could never afford in the first place.

      I guess it’s like standing outside a luxury car store at the V&A, and waiting for them to turn the firehose on you, because you’re scaring off their actual customers 🙁

    According to CDPR there is going to be a few chances to win one of these. This is just the first competition so hopefully we’ll get a chance during the future give aways. Although I wouldn’t hold my breath (it’s not good for you)

    Give me a yellow can of spray paint, a vinyl printer for the Cyberpunk logo, CNC Cutter for the backplate and a RTX 2080 TI and I’ll make you one.

    Now if these 77 cards they’re giving were special RTX 2080 TI SUPER editions, now that would place some worth on them.

      Probably didn’t read the T&C, or he wanted to clickbait troll us ?

    Damn, was really hoping it would be available for purchase on the 3000 series.

    Also that said, I can’t wait for the 3000 series.
