A company sells handbags with an integrated graphics card. This strange product can be purchased for 1,000 euros. However, true high-end
is not available for that much money.
A website called GPU Purses offers a particularly strange product: The site sells handbags with an integrated graphics card. Yet despite the high price of $1,024 (about 1,000 euros), no high-end graphics card is installed. The website states:
For the GPU enthusiasts. This wallet has an external fan that spins and an Nvidia GT 730 card. Enough space for a phone.
Handbag with GT 730 from Nvidia for 1,000 euros
What kind of bag is this? “GPU Purses” sells transparent plastic bags with gold embellishments. An old Nvidia GT 730 has been installed in the bag, encased in resin. From the outside, you can see the graphics card’s fan.
What kind of graphics card is this? The GT 730 is a low-end graphics card that was released in 2014. Today, it is mainly used in computers that do not have an integrated graphics chip and where a “real” graphics card would be too expensive. New, you would pay between 50 and 70 euros for the GT 730, and you can already get the GPU used for 30 euros on eBay.de.
The colleagues from TomsHardware humorously suggest that the price is likely so high because the seller markets the bag as a luxury product
. Even if you buy the graphics card at its original price and factor in the material, you wouldn’t reach more than 200 euros.
Furthermore, it is said to be a highly limited offer
: The manufacturer states that they plan to make another 10 pieces of it in the coming weeks. Whether you really want to walk through the city with such a handbag and whether it is really worth 1,000 euros to you, you have to decide for yourself in the end.
