NVIDIA vs AMD Argument Ends in Murder
http://www.eteknix.com/nvidia-vs-amd-argument-ends-in-murder/
Since the dawn of gaming, fanatics have adopted partisan positions supporting
their favourite brand. Whether it be Sega vs Nintendo, PlayStation vs Xbox,
or NVIDIA vs AMD, these polarised postures have been the source of much
childish bickering and sniping over the decades. But how many of these
squabbles have ended in murder?
Old work colleagues Aleksander Trofimov, 31, and Evgeny Lylin, 37, met for
drinks in Saransk, Russia on 16th September, 2016. The two Russian friends
got into a heated debate about which graphics card was better, AMD or NVIDIA?
Lylin praised AMD’s rendering capacity, while Trofimov hailed NVIDIA for
making the GPU for gamers. The debate, fuelled by copious amounts of alcohol,
took an unsavoury turn, resulting in Trofimov bludgeoning Lyulin twice in the
head and stabbing him eleven times to death, according to Russian site
Stolica.
As he sobered up, Trofimov decided to try to hide the evidence of his crime.
He stripped the deceased of his clothes and put them in a bag with Lyulin’s
mobile phone and wrapped the body in cellophane. The drove the body and
clothes to a remote lot near Rezinotekhnika. He dumped the body on the lot
and threw the bag with the clothes and phone off a bridge and into a river.
After Lyulin’s mother phoned Trofimov the next morning to ask about the
location of her son, Trofimov returned to the lot to burn Lyulin’s body.
Trofimov was sentenced to a measly nine-and-a-half years in priso, was the
Judge an NVIDIA fan?
從有電玩以來，就有多少極端份子整天在品牌狂熱。
SEGAvs老任、索索vs軟軟又或者AMDvsNVIDIA，這種幼稚的爭執一直梅停過。
但是這些爭吵有多少結束於殺害呢？
兩個好友兼同事的Aleksander Trofimov(31)與Evgeny Lylin(37)於2016年9月16
相約俄羅斯薩蘭斯克一起喝酒，並且討論了顯卡優劣。
Lylin覺得AMD的算圖能力比較優秀，Trofimov覺得NV的顯卡是專們為了玩家所
製造的，根據俄羅斯網站Stolica的報導，在大量酒精下兩人爭執越發激烈，
最後Trofimov重擊了Lylin的頭部兩次，並且刺傷了他11刀當場死亡。
隨後Trofimov展開了滅屍行動，先清理了Lylin的衣服跟所有物，並且
將其身體包裹後棄屍。
隔日早晨在接到Lylin母親電話後，Trofimov又返回現場焚燒屍體，
Trofimov最終被捕並於近日被判處9年半的監禁，莫非這個法官也是
NVIDAI的愛好者？(這句為原文不是我加的)
