Okay, so imagine this — I’m scrolling through my feed, probably supposed to be adulting, but instead I see this post from NVIDIA. They’re like, “Hey, folks, we’re tossing out this crazy-custom RTX 5090 GPU with DOOM: The Dark Ages graphics.” Yeah, you heard me. A DOOM-themed wrap. Pure geek art right there.
Alright, let’s back up. NVIDIA just casually drops this bombshell in some official X post. You’ve got your standard graphics card, but sprinkle a little DOOM love all over it. They’re celebrating some native ray tracing or whatever the techy term was — NVIDIA DLSS 4 + Reflex, which, let’s be honest, sounds like some futuristic AI Jedi powers to me.
And this game — wait, what was it called? Right, The Dark Ages. Just hit the shelves and everyone’s losing their minds over it on Steam. It’s like a fancy sequel to DOOM Eternal. The tech in this bad boy? Apparently groundbreaking. Ray tracing that will melt your eyes in a good way. And the RTX 5090, yep, that’s the muscle you need to play it like a boss.
So, for a chance to snag this beauty, you’ve gotta like the post and drop a #RTXON in the comments. Boom, you’re in. Feels kinda like a digital lottery, but hey, who doesn’t love a good gamble, right?
But, wait for it — not everyone can join this party. Some places like parts of Australia, Quebec, and a bunch of other spots? Totally ghosted from the contest. Middle East and a few Asian countries too. Bummer for them.
Let’s chat hardware for a second. The NVIDIA RTX 5090 is worth a cool $1999 — heck of a price tag, huh? Then slap on that custom DOOM wrap, which adds another $600. The whole shebang is $2599, which, honestly, kinda checks out with market vibes.
Mark your calendars, folks. You’ve got from May 15th to May 22nd, 2025 to jump in. After that, NVIDIA plays fairy godmother and picks a winner. They’ll slide into the winner’s DMs or email, and you’ve got 48 hours to raise your hand and say, “Yep, that’s me!”
Anyway, gotta love NVIDIA for teasing our wallets like this. What a world, right?
