This is a graphics card that won't fit in your case or run Crysis.

Weird, but cool.

"Or run crysis" ... well glad we won't see that comment question lol... I would have built a woman, myself.

 

[thundervore]

As a fan of both Lego and Nvidia i must say that i am impressed.

 

[wikiwikiwhat]

Now where's its case to fit that in.

 

[xroe]

Now we just need a modular case that can accommodate it *obvious cough* lego *obvious Cough*

Funny that the Lego version of the 690 is more expensive that the real thing!

 

[Zachasaurs]

15 minutes? i guarantee working 6 hours a day this would take at least 4 months and it would become immobile with ought breaking

If I was Nvidia I offer to not only buy the lego card but also hire him for marketing. The kid obviously has some talent for engineering even if he used a program to help design it.

 

[vaughn2k]

Should have bought the real one though... 😀 😀 😀

 

[Pyree]

My GTX 690 is bricked. 😛

Nvidia should give him a new top of the line graphics card just for the nice free publicity this provided them.

 

[SchizoFrog]

Not as impressive as first thought when you realise that he used computer software to design the model and then just follows the instructions of using what bit where and when.

As for iknowhowtofixit's comment, if you are bored of Lego in 15 minutes then that is down to you and your lack of creative thinking, not Lego itself.
Lego has been around for almost 65 years (1949) and has inspired generation after generation. Lego took the 'creative construction' crown from Mechano and nothing has been able to compete since.
Now grow up, stop complaining and go play with some Lego.

Which cost more? the legos or the actual card?

 

[Keith Cronhardt]

sorry, I just read the headline and then commented without reading the article. 🙁

They should make a card this big. The power and cooling ability would be outstanding. Maybe not so practical, and probably uber loud, but still awesome

¥10,000 doesn't equal $1640...

 

[IndustryStandard]

That's 10,000 yuan, not yen, which is $1,641 as of my post.

 

[Chairman Ray]

I am genuinely impressed

 

[eddieroolz]

Impressive determination!

 

[f-14]

well....atleast he can run on it while playing crysis

my brain just exploded.

 

[alyoshka]

Not a Nvidia Fan anymore but this guy is Awesomost Maximus....

Nvidiot Extraordinaire!

Is it wrong that all I can think about is "Does the fan spin"?
