I'm going to get a job at ATI by delivering the successor to the Radeon 1950 XTX. Its nearly complete.
The PCB was made from a Cap'n Crunch box cutout. It uses the R650 core, built on the 5mm fabrication process and is made of 3 x 10^0 used resistors I scavenged from an electronics lab at school. The heat sink is mounted on a generous layer of Neilson's thermal butter and features the latest in heat pipe technology. I used a straw from a juice box (juice included !). It is internally powered by human creativity for low wattage (who needs these whatts anyway?) and has a crossfire board option, connected through a duct tape express cable. The core is not clocked because its for graphics, not time :rolleyes: I haven't installed the samsonite memory modules yet but apparently they are going to add a touch of style to the board. Oh and it will support the latest Direct3d 11 API. It says so in magic marker.

Yeah, thanks dude, go and ruin my awesome nvidia card I made out of construction paper, markers, and popsicle sticks.
I hate you.

Nahh, I'm making a virtual reality suite.
You have this kinda table, raised off the floor, it has a comfort device for your head and some fabric to cover you if it gets cold.
You need to make sure the room is dark and quite to get the full benefit.
Basically all you have to to is eat some cheese, drink some hot chocolate and play SS1 and SS2 for 5 hours.
You then lay on the table, close your eyes and relax.
In about an hour you should be inside the game!!!!
if course a good imagination helps :joke:
