TechPowerUp, Asetek, and ASUS ROG Present ROG Strix RTX 3080 Ti LC Giveaway

btarunr · Sep 14, 2021

TechPowerUp, Asetek, and ASUS Republic of Gamers, come together to bring our readers from the European Union a mind-blowing chance to win an ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3080 Ti LC graphics card. Co-developed by ASUS and Asetek, the RTX 3080 Ti Strix LC combines a top-of-the-line, factory-overclocked RTX 3080 Ti GPU with all-in-one liquid cooling by Asetek. This includes the company's latest-generation AIO pump-block technology, a 240 mm radiator, and a pair of 120 mm fans. TechPowerUp reviewed this card a while ago, but the card up for grabs is brand-new and factory sealed.

To participate, simply head over to this page. You can maximize your chances of winning by sharing this giveaway with your friends on social media. Open for entries until September 28.

That's a nice little giveaway package. I'd just be content with the AIO. Now that I have room in my case to mount a 240rad on the front with my 980Ti no longer taking up space, I need to get a new AIO and let the just capable Noctua NH-U9S be retired for my 5900x.

Wow nice

Probably the only time you're gonna have better chances getting one of these in a giveaway than actually finding and buying one.

It would probably be cheaper to move over there, find a place to live and win the giveaway and then move back. GPU prices are insane, so you might actually come out on top if you move, win and move back.

Yeah, we wanted to give Europeans something this time

To clarify, and I double checked with Asetek on this, "EU" means "member countries of the European Union"

I mean it says European countries, so as far as I understand it, it doesn't have to be EU.

can't believe - a EU giveaway

This isn't sweepstakes. We are not taking any payment from you for a chance to win.

A sweepstake is a type of contest where a prize or prizes may be awarded to a winner or winners.[1] Sweepstakes began as a form of lottery that were tied to products sold.[2] In response, the FCC and FTC refined U.S. broadcasting laws (creating the anti-lottery laws).[3] Under these laws sweepstakes became strictly "No purchase necessary to enter or win" and "A purchase will not increase your chances of winning", especially since many sweepstakes companies skirted the law by stating only "no purchase necessary to enter",[4] removing the consideration (one of the three legally required elements of gambling)[5] to stop abuse of sweepstakes.[5] Today, sweepstakes in the USA are used as marketing promotions to reward existing consumers and to draw attention to a product.[2] By definition, the winner is determined by luck rather than skill.[6]

If I remember correctly only 1 state in India has ban on giveaways while in others they are legal. I regularly see reviewers, retailers and publications in India holding giveaways/contests while in terms and conditions only 1 particular state is excluded.

It's the state with ancestral home of current VP of USA.

R0H1T · Sep 14, 2021

Sweepstakes are strictly prohibited in some countries including France, Belgium, Germany, Sweden, India, and Italy where they are considered to be equal to lotteries and/or "games of chance."

Well this is factually incorrect, only in the state of TN they're illegal :ohwell:

Yup, need to update that line over there!
