Somebody got happy with grab bag items and now they're selling them on newegg?

I think this would be cooler if they used Intel products instead of the standard suits. Either that or just use standard suits but give each card custom art or feature various different Intel CPUs from history on the front. The back looks kind of gaudy for what it's worth.

This is actually off-topic. It may be Intel, but its not about CPU's.

...but why?

It may be OT but I like it. Maybe you could make an exception. This is the first OT thread I have actually enjoyed.

So long as it is not reported, and the other admins say nothing. I will leave it here. 🙂

This should be the headline.

For the Intel fan that thought they had 'everything'... Intel... Playing Cards?

Well, I just tried to buy them at 70% off with promo code, but I would have to buy an Intel CPU just to get them. I5/I7 only. The cheapest was $50, and there is no way I want a dual-core or a socket 1366 just to get playing cards.

Gotta admit... I thought that this was about Intel's graphics cards but posted in a wrong section. Playing cards...

 

[ehume]

Yeah, it makes you think: what if all of this talk about cards is just that?

How much are you willing to pay to dominate anywhere? Show up to a poker game with that deck, and people just give you the money up-front. No need to play!

I mean, that's how they work, right?

Don't wait! Put an ace card at your heatsink until it burns and you instantly get an IPC improvement by 20%!

So, if you get a hot hand do you need liquid cooling?

Whoa. That could help Intel stretch 14nm for another entire product cycle.

It needs to be kept colds with crystals. In solution.
