Nvidia has been getting caught up in the hype of the new Matrix Resurrection movie recently. Last year, Nvidia gave away a Matrix-themed PC to celebrate the release of the latest installment in the franchise. At the time of the competition, there were three custom-built towers being given away, which included GeForce RTX graphics cards. Now, the company is doing a similar promotion for gamers to commemorate the film's release in China.
According to a recent report from Videocardz, which offered a translated blog post from the popular website Weibo, Nvidia is giving Chinese residents the opportunity to snag a Matrix-inspired RTX 3080 Ti, specifically one based on the Founders Edition. The card will "pay tribute" to the newest film from the popular, yet until recently dormant, sci-fi series. According to the translation, fans need to "prove their dual status" as both a fan of the film and an ardent supporter of GeForce technology. The winner will be drawn on January 21.
