**AMD COMPETITION** WIN! VTX3D HD 6870 X2 graphics card worth £344.99 PLUS exclusive runners up priz

Oh Ruby we are terrified of your redish hair
With your green arms you are very rare
The two swords you carry scares away this competitions competitors
But not looking like Lara Croft disapoints us Overclockers
Being two of you on the box of the VTX3D card
can excite us gamers to purchase lard
 
There are many Graphics cards in the world,
That most don’t care to use,
the GT 240, the HD 5450 to name only but of a few,
But you can choose your graphical companion,
And mines a Ruby through and through,
It’s a VTX3D for me, Delivered next day from Overclockers for me…….

To the song, Kentucky Bourbon - Murder by Death

Enjoy :D
 
Wow, I found this really hardly, I never was the imaginative type.

This is my graphics card love story (see if you can guess which card I had and which I have now :p)

I'll start from the beginning, when I first met you.
You adorned my graphics card, in red, black and blue.
I swapped you out, for a tattooed man.
He was sent from Overclockers, in a white van.

I'll get you back, now finally.
I have to win a VTX3D.
You were my first, while I was a newbie.
I can be hardcore with you now Ruby.
 
such benevolence overclockers
and bestowed from our favorite restockers
a legend born named vtx3d
from the mystical kingdom of AMD

and all of the people in god's gracious land
drew steel and shield, no more hand in hand
though the land very bloodied this wasn't the game
just fools with rags seeking riches and fame

at the end of it all in red there she stand
and admired the soul who didn't demand
Ruby held out a box shadowed by cover
what he was to discover was a prize unlike any other.....

Competition Limerik

Overclockers have a lady called Ruby
Who's VTX3D is groovy
She plays the Sims every night,
Even though it is............rubbish,
But it looks like a Hollywood movie.


Hope you like it x
 
There was a young lady called Ruby

Who played games the way that they should be

Her graphics came FREE

She had a VTX3D

Overclockers should give one to ME!!
 
Laying here prone on the floor
Distraught, high end games on my PC no more!
My 5750 has grown old and slow
I've nowhere to turn, oh where do I go
But wait, I look up and what do I see
Overclockers are here with a VTX3D
Who is this beauty you've brought, I exclaim,
As I rub my eyes disbelieving, I ask, please explain
After hearing your cries we've brought you this gift,
To give the performance on your PC a lift
Her name is Ruby and we've brought her to you
So you can max out the settings, when playing Crysis 2
 
RUBY with your leggings and top so red,
if you weren't a drawing I'd want you in my bed!!

With your curves so sleek and stunning design,
and a luscious pair of fans, well you just blow my mind!!

Oh VTX3D, you have power, style and grace,
inside my pc, for you I've already reserved a space!!

now the ladies tell me I'm no gods gift and i guess thats true,
so my only chance of a 3some is with me and VTX3D x2!!

so OVERCLOCKERS, in conjunction with AMD,
I beg you-no implore you-please pick me!!

so tempted to to try and do a version of Ruby, Ruby, Ruby but my singing skills aint worth jack!
so i had to settle for this:p
 
An ATI Radeon HD6870x2 Edition
is the main prize of overclockers competition
made by the clever chaps at VTX3D
Includes an exclusive model by the name of Ruby
A top performing card which ain't too weighty
and easily keeps up with Nvidia's GTX580
So if I won this prize I would have to admit
that I would be happier than a pig in S***.
 
Dimly lit & stenched, as so often referred,
a pit shut out and away, closed off and from
Silhouette projected and hunched,
radiant from glow, and denied of sun
Ambience not silence, made of two companions,
two of friend, one of foe

Fibres stiffen as worry grips,
movement occurs, if only brief
Settled and claw resting,
curiosity reigns, it draws
A moment passing,
brings with it void of light, days

Companion curled - warm,
User arched and grumbling,
A glance of hands is met with discontent,
Yet more nothing filled, as more space is wasted,
The gap above the glow fades, the pull dwindles,
Warmth left seated, the User always returns

One is followed and predicted, one returns,
crease and warmth recovered,
The glow rotates with user rhythmic,
order ingrained with time,
The last and most prevalent, Overclockers,
a dwelling outside the dimly lit and stenched pit

A second path, leads on from the first,
therein lies the heart in its thousands,
It's veins returning information,
The User injects and draws,

One vein, he draws from more than any other,
the User knows its dangers,
Enticed, he hunches slightly more,
his keen gaze reflecting the vessels fruits,
Anticipation turns to preperation,
a second vessel is taken

Here the User muses a sea of digits,
a generation to be succeeded,
and to have succeeded a generation gone,

The danger now real, the first path calls,
yet more days full of night propose themselves,
The User cares little, his mind swayed,
he knows his gain and at what cost,
His eyes rest fixated, the chosen sequence,
Her stare, lifeless

Anticipation numbed, he is prepared,
Her sequence listed, VTX3D,
The User, calls her Ruby.


Edit:

Just realised it's not funny, silly or rhyming as stated in OP, so I assume it's invalid? :(

Well here's a second, I know it said one per poster, but I'm going on the assumption that my first is invalid anyway as it doesn't rhyme and isn't funny or silly - so below is my one entry


Weeping over wasted art of mine,
Spent words, expelled talent, I'll get it right this time,
Written to mournful music, my previous attempt,
a winning story, rendered irrelevant
Now I enter this, a second piece,
beware forum dwellers, I come a poetic beast

Prepare to be doused in poetic rain,
BOOM HEADSHOT, OVER 9000 poetically slain
I'll own you all so get in line,
All your base are belong to mine,
I'm a keyboard warrior, only I've eaten the keys,
I spit them out, leaving keyboard sheathed

The lure of Ruby's power, pulls geeks from hentai knockers
The scent of Ruby's twins, draws geeks to overclockers
I speak of her dual GPU provided by VTX3D,
I'll also coat my Ruby figurine with the essence of me,
Fapping furiously to my insane fps,
The other hand caressing my Ruby's chest,

I'm a sick individual, many will understand
We have the same disease, called an upgrade plan,
Fantasies of power, clocking and cooling,
With it leaving many a geek comatose and drooling,

With the power at hand, I'll be maxing out BF3
Your screen bloodied and red, your tags belong to me
Real power comes with my hand on mouse,
Teabagging you sadly, you wet girls blouse
What kind of soldier are you with my crotch on your face?
Mmmm, that's called ownage, savour the taste

And with Diablo III finally due, my Monk awaits,
With A Hundred Fists and Exploding Palm,
My storm of win emerges from calm,
And there my dominance will reign supreme,
You lie seperated from your appendages, stumps bloodied,
Cut with precision, straight...clean

I reach to the corners of gaming space,
with leet skills having no bounds,
I run gloriously as one of the PC master race,
console peasents surround,

I want to scream, Y U NO PLAY PC?
but know the cause is lost,
So I'll simply collect my VTX3D,
and save myself the cost.

I clicked this thread by mistake;
But feel that I must partake.

Another compo for me to see;
Main prize called a VTX3D;
And a runners up figure named ruby (SWEEETT).

I thought and I typed;
In hope that I might;
Just win this thing of beauty.

My girlfriend walked in and distrubed me;
She'd never understand my need;
To win this prize to supress my greed.

This is no limmerick, poem, but it does rhyme;
I hope that it is fine;
Please kind Overclockers staff, do one thing for me?;
Upgrade me from my shoddy HD 4830.

"Ruby, Ruby, Ruby" the Kaiser Chiefs shouted
No more riots predicted, the kids were exhausted
They'd looted trainers and clothes, and iPad 2s
And the cleverer ones got their hands on some VTX3Ds too
In anger Overclockers' ubershell started to smart
There were no customers left to click "Add to cart"

:)
 
Ruby, Ruby, how thoughtful of thee,
To adorn this box branded VTX3D,
Your hair is bright red, which lights up this thread,
So Overclockers, please give this to me!

:D Succinct and straight to the point :p

Love this competition idea Ubershell aha some great entries!
