Kevorkian showed graphics cards how to end the pain. Why would they want to die? Wrath of the Lich King....

One card says to another card. “It’s getting hot in here.” “I know, and they’ve nicked all the fans.”

“Don’t look now, but I just saw a sexy little ATI card right behind you.” “Wow and she’s got a huge pair of VGA’s, you don’t see many of them in this box.”

Card on the left is singing “VGA card in red is dancing with me, chip to chip.”

A card on the bottom shouts. “Hey, you on the top, shut up, you’re supposed to be dead.”

Nvidia rebrands old parts in a new marketing spin:

the all new GTX270-8R0k3N

I think some of you are senile. Those are modern graphics cards. They are not old old vga's. Old vga's didn't have dual dvi connectors and they weren't that big and they definitely didn't have factory ram sinks on them.

"If you think this is one big box of broken graphic cards; Boy, you should see the container we use for the XBoxes!"

Nvidia spokesperson: "Dead?!? No, that stands for D.E.A.D - errr.... Delivers Extremely Awesome Display...." *casually looks in the air and starts whistling while using foot to push the box out of sight*

"the only box nvidia will see ALL year."

Looks to me like there's been an AMD-ATI multiple pile up,with Charlie in the driving seat,oh well,what else,we can't expect miracles from any of them,just a pile of old fiction!!!

Positive side of the Recession : DIE SHRINK

"Alas stripping all of the gold traces from the multiple vga cards lying about to pay off the INq's tab at ye old pub in these tough times was short by a few quid"

Dead VGAs - awaiting resurrection.
Dead VGAs - awaiting recycling.
Dead VGAs - the recycle bin.

My, what a bix box of FLOPS

Going fast!!

-aside
Just like to add, that's what my experience(f***ers) was like,
I got burned 3 times,
1/a NV dell(13 months)
2/a NV HP(13 months)
3/a 9400GT, with a replacement 94gt, and another 94gt then 13 months later...

really nice touch from all involved
denial denial denial.

In Europe/UK if they admitted a manufacturing defect the warranty claim period would extend to 6 years.
They will never admit it.

f***ers, all of em cuz they all got into bed with NV on this...dell and hp and everyone else.

The way it's meant to be dumped.

"It's a studied fact that if a nuclear explosion hit the entire world.. Only cockroaches and obsolete graphics cards remain"

New multi gpu box falls short of gamers expectations..

As the 32nd video card was disposed of it became clear to the Nvidia shareholders that die shrinking must be stopped.

"Today we are very excited to announce our new engine" said Cevat Yerli, CEO of Crytek

Price war coupled with recession sparks radical retail packaging change in bid to cut costs.

The Way It's Meant To Be Packaged.

"On DirectX 11 launch day, the switch to AMD cards was instantaneous."

"The economic downturn has claimed the lives of many at the high-end"

With a little McGuyver magic, maybe we can turn this into something that will run Crysis on 'high'

"You need to be this much GPU to ride <newestfpsclone " (think rollercoasters)

"This is your computer. This is your Computer after overclocking. Any Questions?"
"Overclocking - JUST SAY NO!"

Stop commenting on VGA vs DVI, you just look stupid.

"Save a card, adopt a Linux. This message sponsored by the Anti-cruelvista group"

dead radeon pile is bigger, even though radeons were given special zalman treatment, while geforce pile stayed @ stock.

Left green card to the right green card:

"Hooray! Jen-Hsun says tomorrow I'm getting restamped!"

or

"At least we're still on top of the heap...red cards just can't compete!"

Nvidia comes out on top!

Does this mean that when the UPS truck goes by with it's lights on you have to pull over because of computer bereavement?
Why has nobody ever thought of putting GPU's on a socket so GPU makers can involve less of the computer industry and shipping industry in it's mistakes.

NVIDIA- the way it's meant to be RMA'd

As I said a while back - not one VGA port in sight - just DVI - god damn these kids

Good grief.. how old are those card. Do real gamers still buy vga. Also, the bin does not say BAD DVI or BAD GPU, just a BAD VGA... Maybe those cards only have a BAD VGA port, the rest of the card itself is working fine. :)

Basel shmazel, next load almost ready.

While trying to get Charlie to write good things about them, Nvidia sent him some 'freebies' that were destined for Dell.

so.. the inquirer is compensating the lack of bad intel graphic cards by puting everything else in a big blue box? I don't know about you but, benjamin franklin said:
Beauty, like supreme dominion

So frankly it does not matter who we deem dead or otherwise.. but I got to admit that those those gfx cards look hot :P

Tired of writing negative reviews Charlie enacted revenge directly on the Nvidia cards.

Come on kids th`e be precious metals in that pile, cancer or not we need the money! Now tuck in dont be shy.....

"Dont worry lads, most consumers wouldn't touch these, but I'm sure we can find an bunch of idiots who will... think different."

The next batch will be ultra green. fans made from leafs and all sorts..

"Just a bucket full, no more we swear, Jen-Hsun Huang"

"nvidia and AMD seen shuffeling slowly towards Intel marketshare, despite claims by Chipzilla that "brainless" zombies will soon be a thing of the past"

We do believe also that they are attracting voles.

Dum dum dum mellow dramatic music and realisation of idiocity.... :)

"NVIDIA suggests you buy one of the 'new' models, because this is totally nothing to do with the under-fill issues..."

:P

War's a bitch.

Old, not working nvidia cards. Just like new, not working nvidia cards.

More red than green , ATI cover up !

Introducing Nvida's new 'Fix it yourself program'!

Today, nVidia released its new line of passively-cooled DirectX 11.1 "Vista Capable" videocards, the 9950 series. The "9950" series is not a new die design, nor is it a die shrink. The model number is simply an indication of the temperature, in celcius, at which the card runs.

nVidia's CEO, Jen-Hsun Huang was on hand at the release to re-affirm his company's committment to "enrich the customer experience" as much as possible. He's quoted as saying, "Each card comes DOA from the factory so you do not have to waste time troubleshooting the problem!" He was then seen stumbling over towards the bar where, it is reported, that he began throwing chairs and yelling "I'll fucking KILL Intel!" to any patrons who would listen.

"Larrabee anyone?"

I'll bet there's got to be a big blue box filled with larrabee core's because Intel is bitching bout those all year long.

Big Blue turns to its stock holders for more capital to fund its next big idea.

AnnandTech today posted their latest round-up of graphics card tests, minus the tests.

Amateur overclocker jeffK has so far spent over $12,000 of his parent's money trying to break 1 Million FPS in Quake 3.

Russia clones ATI Again

Today, Microsoft released the official minimum-system requirements for its newest operating system, Windows 7.

Tom's hardware has an article today on the importance of choosing a quality PSU for your kit.

Intel today released a few prototypes of their Larrabee GPGPU.

After yet another dead graphics card, Bob wasn't so sure removing the fans to make his system quieter was such a good idea.

Red and Green PCB unite... Looks like the blue will still win.

"Charlie says: Always tell your mummy I WAS RIGHT ABOUT NVIDIA ALL ALONG!!"

"It's a good job we put aside money to replace these...but if anyone asks, there have been no failures"

Please place your unwanted chips here. Every box filled can make one Larrabee.
Thanks kindly,
Intel.

Watching a box filled with nVy

Gotta go with Chronos: "Soon to be named GT300s awaiting QA."

Gentlemen, we have a winner.

If nothing else, Charlie should award Chronos the "Charlie D. 'What I Would Have Said'" award for 2009.

And the inadvertent carton label "Dead VGAs", yep, if that doesn't describe NVidia GT300, then what does?

Too bad there wasn't an empty bin next to that one containing GT300s passing QA.

Blue Box Of Death

Charlie's collection of cracked gfx cards?

"...i see dead VGAs..."

Jen-Hsun Huang smiled smugly as Charlie disappeared beneath the sea of defective gfx cards wearing his new lead bump boots.

"We do not know what the problem is with these VGAs but we're sure we've fixed it"

Dead VGA's

I'll say it for you:

"Soon to be named GT300s awaiting QA."
