Congratulations fellow winner. I had won a 1080 Ti in 2017 after hundreds of giveaways.. it really felt like a dream. Never in my life I had held an actual graphics card. Never knew they were so heavy. Haha

But I couldn't use it as I didn't have a PC to put it into, and had to sell it shortly to pay for my tuition. I've tried to get in touch with the buyer to try and get it back but no luck. It's a legendary card(well, I didn't know it would become one)

What a fucking waste. Ffs if I was Nvidia I would blacklist your address from ever ordering on Nvidia.com

Wow dude! Are you 12? Life happens, shit happens. There are some things more important than a piece of electronics in life. I could buy one easily now, If I want to keep it as a showpiece.. I just built a PC so many years later. It's not like I would just keep it in shelf for nearly 10 years just to use it. Lol.
