This Anime GPU is the most expensive thing I own

Neon Genesis Evangelion is one of my all-time favorite shows, and I also happen to be a bit of a PC hardware enthusiast.
So when these two things were combined, I obviously had to get my hands on the outcome.

I recently bought the EVA-02 version of the ASUS Strix RTX 4090, and I felt like making a video about it.
This is me just going over the process of installing it and talking about my experiences along the way.
