Sapphire Select Club Launches $100,000 Contest

Sapphire has launched what it calls its biggest contest ever, and given that the prizes total $100,000, that seems fair to say. Unlike most contests from GPU companies, there’s no computer hardware here being awarded as prizes, but rather iPads, iPod touch’s, and get this… Honda and Yamaha scooters. I guess it’s obvious that many gamers are a little less mobile than they should be!

The rules for this one are a little strange, though. There are two options, to either purchase a Sapphire Radeon HD 5570 graphics card, or download an entry form and request a code at no cost. Ideally, Sapphire could have opened up this contest to purchasers of any current card, so I’m not quite sure why the company chose something so low-end.

Either way, if you download the form and fill it out, you should receive a code in a couple of weeks that will allow you to enter. Prizes will be given out every week, and a scooter is guaranteed to be won in each eligible country.

Good luck to those who enter!

Contestants get a chance at one of 25 Apple iPad 16GB and 25 Apple iPod Touch 8GB, drawn every week until December 17, 2010. You can also win one of 20 Honda or Yamaha scooters. Each eligible country will have at least one winner of a scooter. Plus, contestants who win an Apple iPad or Apple iPod Touch will be re-entered into the draw to win a scooter!
