Star Wars Day happened this past weekend, #Maythe4thBeWithYou, and all that. To celebrate, NVIDIA is giving away one of the coolest custom GeForce RTX 4080 Founder Edition graphics cards we’ve seen. And that’s because it features art depicting everyone’s favorite (if he’s not, then you might need to rewatch the original trilogy) Rebellion leader – Admiral Ackbar.
The iconic Mon Calamari general who most famously yelled out, “It’s a trap!” during the climactic space battle of Star Wars Episode VI: The Return of the Jedi. The good news is that this competition is open to most countries (check out the full terms and conditions here), with the grand prize featuring some impressive artwork from artist Ryan Brown’s Star Wars: The Rebellion comic book cover.
The downside is that you only have until the end of today, May 6th, 2024, to enter. To enter, all you need to do is comment on the post (like this one on X) with your favorite Star Wars memory (gaming or otherwise) and put the old #RTXON stamp on the end.
Interestingly, the GPU being given away here is the GeForce RTX 4080 Founders Edition, not the new SUPER version released earlier this year. Considering the most significant difference between the two variants is the price point, you’re only really missing out on the all-black design of the newer GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER Founders Edition graphics card.
This GPU would look amazing in any build but would be extra special in a full Star Wars PC modeled to resemble a piece of tech from the first three films.
