    I got these delivered to me this afternoon, colour me green and surprised...

    [​IMG]

    A glass jar of green jelly beans - awesome! :D

    SLI ready, even better. The only problem is that there wasn't an SLI connector included and the current one doesn't work because these use a different interface. Damn Nvidia for changing its interface standards! :p

    [​IMG]

    Also, they support 1333MHz FSB, that must be good right?

    It's obviously a bit of fun but I joked that we should have some in the office when I heard Nvidia was sending these out to US publications... sure enough, they turn up a couple of days later. I wonder how long they'll last.

    btw, they taste of sour apple since you asked

    Ohh tasty!

    Very nice promo Item nvidia!

    Is the side implying they must be eaten along with top-end Intel CPU's? That would be an addiction that cost more than crack!

    It's all in the name of fun... I've decided I don't like the taste anymore, my tastebuds have gone all weird - need another cuppa tea, brb.

    What idiot in marketing didn't have it overclocked by default to 1337MHz?

    That was said about some RAM recently as well.
    Besides that, why do people have this idea that you must use either Intel/Nvidia or AMD/ATI?
    I personally use AMD/Nvidia, which explains my annoyance.
    Why Nvidia would go so far as to promote Intel...with me it does not compute.

    I believe it's related to the impending launch of 1333 FSB Intel CPUs. ;)

    I think its because they are trying to flog more 6 series mobo's.

    Its only a bit of harmless fun!

    Not too long ago, another editor who rightfully smacked down a poor-quality nForce was delivered the same jar, albeit already smashed to smithereens on delivery. He went on to review it using computer hardware criteria...

    Wow, that's actually very cool. I'd like to be able to tag a jar of these onto an order for a small price. :)

    It's not FDA-approved :p
    But who cares! Treat them like steroids to game like a champ. No urine test involved!

    I wonder if the CPL, being a self-proclaimed sport, will mandate drug tests specifically for nVidia jelly beans.. err, 'vitamins'.
