Jingle Bells Played With Graphics Card, Santa Wonders Why

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the send-that-man-a-guitar-pick dept.

As if the entire office full of guitar-controlled lights wasn't enough to make any holiday complete, some enterprising geek has taken it upon himself to give you a rendition of Jingle Bells played on his graphics card heat sink. He probably wont debut at Carnegie Hall, but I'll give him points for effort.

  1. well, maybe the rhythm of Jingle Bells... by harlows_monkeys · · Score: 4, Informative

    I didn't hear a lot of the notes from Jingle Bells in there.

    So then how 'bout the Slashdot users mod up the Engadget Guitar Hero controlled Christmas light article so it makes the front page? The YouTube link is here...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkyrcW24USI In my opinion the work and ingenuity in this are a little lesser than 32 synchronized channels of Guitar Hero goodness. Disclaimer: My brother and I are the architects of the Guitar Hero (Frets on Fire) light display, so yes, I am self-promoting a bit. Thanks for your help!

    Wow, I was expecting some sort of ingenuity, not some dude plucking on a video card fan.

    This is much more impressive: http://youtube.com/watch?v=0rA-zhTJuFU
