Play beta game to win an GTX 460 graphics card

Today I received an email from NVIDIA:

RIFT™ Beta Event: Warfronts
Catalin, be one of the first to check out RIFT™, a new fantasy MMORPG.
...

The email came with a promise to win a video card NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 460.
Unfortunately, my desktop uses the Linux Eee laptop has Windows XP installed.
We went to the site and looked a little under "Media. "
The game looks promising with strong effects worthy of a last generation video card.
It seems to me a kind of "Warcraft" more stylish.
Unfortunately, training developers and open source code not available yet allow monopolization of games development.
You can try a beta .here
