Sure thing, let’s dive right into this, shall we?

Okay, so picture this: NVIDIA’s tossing out this crazy sweet custom DOOM-wrapped RTX 5090 graphics card. Yeah, you heard right, just ONE of these beauties up for grabs. So, let me rewind a bit. NVIDIA posts, more like shouts, on X that they’re throwing this epic contest to celebrate I-don’t-know-what technical mumbo jumbo really. Wait—oh yeah, native ray tracing and something with a lot of Ds and Ss that makes games look all futuristic and stuff.
DOOM: The Dark Ages just dropped today, and apparently, gamers are already losing their minds with good reviews. I kinda thought DOOM was medieval or something before. Anyway, this sequel to DOOM Eternal is like a visual feast—and the RTX 5090 is your golden ticket to making it look like a Renaissance painting, but with more chainsaws.
NVIDIA’s post—don’t laugh, I know somebody out there is calling it a tweet still—goes something like this: Stand and fight blah blah blah… hashtag whatever. Oh, right: to snag this card, just like the post and scribble something like #RTXON as a comment. Super easy instructions, but I remember being stumped because I can never remember if I’ve got to click like before or after I comment.
But hang tight; not everyone in this gigantic sphere we call Earth can join the card chase: sorry to folks in parts of Australia, Quebec (always seems to be Quebec, doesn’t it?), and a couple of spots in Asia and the Middle East. The geopolitics of graphics card giveaways—who’d have guessed?
And the GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition ain’t your grandma’s spare change. Retailing at $1999, slap on a, uh, crispy extra $600 for that custom DOOM wrap. So, it’s like driving a Ferrari but with a DOOM paint job. Fancy and fierce, if that ticks your boxes. Ah yes, it starts at 6:00 AM sharp (I’d probably snooze through it), May 15, wraps up May 22. They ping you if you win, and seriously, 48 hours to get back to them or it’s too bad, so sad.
Man, one can dream, right? Maybe someday I’ll win something cooler than a branded pen. Until then, it’s lurking on social media and dreaming of DOOM.
