It’s not often we see a graphics card that is almost completely fried across the board. That’s what happened with this poor RTX 4090 whose 12V rail leaked into the memory, frying the VRAM and travelling to the core in the process, killing the GPU for good. Not only that, but the card was also comically bent to the point where suggesting someone might’ve used it as a self-defense weapon wouldn’t be far-fetched.

As part of its 2025 Holiday Bundle, Intel is letting you pick between Battlefield 6 and Assassin’s Creed Shadows as a free game when you purchase a qualifying Intel CPU or GPU. If you fancy yourself a high-end gaming laptop then you can avail the Platinum offer and get up to three free games.
