Old Nvidia GPU Repurposed into $1,000 Luxury Handbag by Innovative Company

Are you searching for a way to recycle your old graphics card? An online store has introduced a unique purse made from a repurposed GPU, but it comes with a hefty price tag.

When your graphics card fails or becomes outdated, figuring out what to do with it can be challenging. Still-functioning graphics cards may serve well in media machines or servers.

For those who are more creatively inclined and have access to the right tools, there’s an innovative option: a stylish purse crafted from an old GPU.

An online retailer known as GPU Purses offers a fascinating range of purses primarily featuring obsolete graphics cards encased in resin.

The main product highlighted by the seller showcases an older Nvidia GeForce GT 730. This outdated GPU is not a sought-after collector’s item and can often be found secondhand on platforms like eBay for around $20.

GPU Purses has transformed this outdated card by encasing it in epoxy resin, adding a stylish gold purse frame and chain, resulting in a distinctive handbag that showcases the electronics within.

While the exact internal dimensions are unclear, the seller claims it can accommodate a smartphone.

What’s most astonishing about this unique fashion accessory is its price; the GPU Purses site lists it for $1,024.

To put this into perspective, a brand-new and fully operational graphics card such as the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super can be purchased for just $799, making the price of this purse quite astonishing.

Additionally, the site features a purse with a high-end H100 AI accelerator chip. Although this GPU was likely non-functional even before being encased in resin, it carries an astonishing price of $65,536.
