The #GeForceSummer giveaway was an absolute rake of contest as NVIDIA and Palit gave gamers the chance to win a GeForce RTX 5090. This is no ordinary VGA. It is a brute-populated with chameleon-inspired panels, TurboFan 4.0 cooling, and VGA ARGB lighting—that can transform any set into a scene from a sci-fi movie. Oh! The winner also gets to bring a friend along. Talk about a flex.
The simple rules say: Tell NVIDIA the first game you would stream should you win, add #GeForceSummer and wait. The replies? Utter madness. Some gamers are listing everything from Cyberpunk 2077 to MS Flight Simulator 2024, whereas others throw in some wild ones like “streaming solitaire on this bad boy” (that was a good one from Andrew).
The Cyberpunk 2077 bunch is obviously the loudest; numerous players want to max out ray-tracing and see Night City finally without their PCs melting down. Of course, Battlefield 6 was loved so much because what better way to test a GPU than with explosions and 128-player mayhem? Yet, the real shocker remains how many are still carrying the torch for Elden Ring. It seems to be the all-time PC gamers’ magnum opus at least until Shadow of The Erdtree comes along.
Then come the odd choices: Silent Hill 2 Remake, Wuthering Waves, and even Umamusume Pretty Derby (yes, horse girl simulator). Just a little reminder that gaming preferences are as diverse as hardware. And cover your ears for the mention of Warhammer 40k—who will get all the settings turned-up to ultra!
For those innocent ones still stuck on the 30-series card (we see you, RetroDice), the RTX 5090 is a monumental uplift. Saying this, TurboFan 4.0 means buttery smooth performance paired with ARGB lighting to seal the deal. This might very well be one of the few tech pieces able to make you tear down and redo your whole setup just for display.
So, what is the takeaway #1? Gamers have never been so hungry for the notion of next-gen power embodied in this giveaway. Whether competitive shooting, hardcore RPG-ing, or anything that can turn solitaire into a cinematic experience, there’s a bit of bait for everyone.
The contest is still ongoing, so if you have yet to lure your hat in there, it’s time to do so. Just don’t blame us if you find your dream game list getting ever longer after checking the replies.
And if you win, take us for that first stream; we’ll provide the snacks.
