An accountant is an accountant and money moves the same ways whether it's taco bell or Nvidia.
Fine, guess it's up to me. Ready?
From now on, all Nvidia GPUs will come with toilet paper - 2 rolls for x60 class, 3 for x70 class, a 6 pack for x80 class, and one of those Costco-sized packs with the purchase of a x90 class.... Oh, and a free taco or bean and cheese burrito.
You're welcome. :D :roll:
