Nvidia’s Latest Promotion: Signed Classic Graphics Cards for PC Gamers

For those who admire the historical milestones of PC gaming, Nvidia has just launched a promotion that may very well hit all the right notes. The company is offering signed and framed versions of its iconic graphics cards, with CEO Jensen Huang adding his signature to the backings. The first card in this exclusive giveaway is the GeForce 256 from 1999, often hailed as “the world’s first GPU.”

While the claim of being the first GPU might be up for debate, the intrinsic value of owning such a piece of PC gaming history—especially with Huang’s autograph—is undeniable. For enthusiasts who love showcasing their passion for hardware, this is an opportunity to own something rare that speaks to the evolution of graphics technology.

Alongside the GeForce 256, Nvidia plans to give away four more signed and framed cards, with speculation already swirling about which cards will be included. The 8800 GTX from 2006 seems like a likely candidate, as its legacy is still cherished by gamers today. If you’re looking to snag one of these rare collectibles, all you need to do is reply to Nvidia’s original tweet with #GeForceGreats to enter.

This promotion is proof that some elements of PC gaming can be cherished as more than just functional hardware—they’re pieces of history that deserve to be displayed as art.
