GeForce GTX 690 arrives in the Guru3D lab ...

You have probably seen it on a couple of other selected websites already (our sample arrived a tad late), but NVIDIA is sending around the GeForce GTX 690 in a rather original way.  A week prior to shipping out the card some press (including Guru3D) received a crowbar. To use against zombies or .... was marked on it. 

Once we received the package with the card it all made sense, the card came in a wooden crate. Honestly I'm a sucker for for these things, and absolutely loved the idea. Though I doubt the crowbar made is through customs for everybody :)
