As the fastest GPU in the world, NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 580 is definitely worth shouting about, so SCAN has decided to throw an official launch party this Saturday to celebrate the occasion.

From when the doors open at 10am, the retailer will have plenty of the cards set-up to let you try some of the hottest new games, including Call of Duty: Black Ops running in 3D and HAWX 2 in glorious three-screen 3D surround. There might even be one or two other unreleased games making an appearance - but you'll have to show up to find out more.

Of course, no good party would be complete without prizes. Not only will NVIDIA be giving away a few GTX 580s, but there will be 3D Vision kits - complete with 24in 3D-ready monitors - plenty of copies of Black Ops, HAWX 2 and Mafia 2 and a few other special goodies to be won on the day.

If you're thinking of attending, you can go and register now for free, which will also net you a GTX 580 t-shirt once you arrive.

Of course, some of the HEXUS team will be on hand, so even if you can't make it, we'll be able to fill you in on all of the action next week.

More details are available at the event website, but if you know you want to come and see the world's fastest GPU in action, we'll see you at SCAN in Bolton on Saturday starting from 10am.

Address: Scan Computers International, 25-28 Enterprise Park, Middlebrook, Horwich, Bolton, BL6 6PE.

Same!

I can't really travel all the way up there.

Shame as i really want to go to one of these
Maybe one day they will find the spare cash to set one up, we can only hope :D.

I think scan should send some free t-shirts to hexus members :P.
I think we're overlooking something - Scan are in Bolton.

Think of the sights to see whilst you're there! The local culture! The wildlife!
