Asus ATI Radeon HD 6870 OC 1024MB Description?

GiB · 27 Oct 2010 at 17:30

Is the description for this card for real?

apart from the crazy 13mhz oc on it

"EMI Shield effectively blocks 66% radiation to protect user's health and improves the clarity of graphics."

Are these cards emitting radiation??????? is my non Asus card going to cause me health probs down the line?

the cards emit a GAMMA ray burst every 7'tenths of a second, this anomaly can cause green skin and great strength.

Hell, a lot of people would go on figuring out how to unblock that...

The marketing is getting silly now. Military grade / EMI shield / fake up to xx% overclocks ala MSI..........

I am suprised someone didnt come up with fermi grill as a marketing slogan. "This card will let you crank it up and cook breakfast at the same time!!"

this guy doesn't have a Asus ATI Radeon HD 6870 OC 1024MB and look at him now.

Just when I thought marketting on PC components couldnt get any worse :rolleyes:

I'll take the EMI shield over most of the others. FizzX and eyeball infinity and so on.

I'll take your military grade components and raise you a memOK and CeraM!X Heatsink Coating Technology

Nyoron · 27 Oct 2010 at 19:22

What the...had to check it myself to make sure that's really what it claims. :eek:

That's quite an achievement from Asus, maybe now less pc gamers will die from radiation.

I so wish you did bring it to me so I could fiddle around with a little

In the thread, I didn't know my card emits radiation. I thought it only happens when you try to bake it? :confused:

Doesnt inspire a lot of confidence tbh, soldiers are never done complaining about the quality of their kit.

Mine keeps emitting massive tachyon bursts and as a result I keep getting complaints from passing Romulans because apparently its intefering with their shield harmonics

Do people not read books any more? There is no excuse for thinking "brought" means "bought". I've actually heard people say "brought" as well, when they mean "bought".

Military grade is probably fairly accurate, it won't work properly if at all and you wont get one anyway as there wont be enough to go round :eek:
