B-b-b-but I'm holding for the 980Ti.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

And all I got was Far Cry 4 on uPlay ;___;

 

[FreezerGeezer]

I picked up my 970 in store on Sunday. I am wondering if I can claim Batman too.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Well, shit.
Might as well build a rig. That's not a bad deal.
970 is still decent, right?

It's still a beast and will continue to beast for the next 2-3 years.

 

[Akiyama_AE]

This is so damn worth it i want them both and i'm still running a 590 time for upgrade??

 

[NEO0MJ]

This is so damn worth it i want them both and i'm still running a 590 time for upgrade??

It's a good time for that now, unless you want to wait for Pascal.

 

[Mifec]

B-b-b-but I'm holding for the 980Ti.

I got 3 games with my 780ti OuO

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

BTW it looks like the deal is already going into effect.

For example:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127832

 

[Houndi101]

Are they trying to get rid of these cards before annoucing 980ti?

 

[O.DOGG]

Wow, that's a great deal. I was planning on upgrading my 760 this year. I may now do it earlier than planned.

 

[Ban Puncher]

I got 3 games with my 780ti OuO

So did I but two of those were Uplay codes which I gave away because eff Uplay.

 

[PaulExcellent]

Cool, cool.
Sounds like a deal to me.

 

[Gothos]

Wonder if that promo will appear in Europe.

 

[Japle]

Wonder if that promo will appear in Europe.

Already has: German store

 

[ViciousDS]

Time to contact amazon and see if I can get this since I just got my 970 2 weeks ago. Its equivalent to any price drop or deal so I don't see why they wouldn't honor it.

 

[Chinbo37]

Literally just ordered a 970 last Thursday.

 

[Asd202]

Wow a great promo.

 

[ValfarHL]

Selling overpriced 980/970 before 980ti and price drop confirmed. I joke, but I do wish I waited one more week before buying my 970.

 

[Grassy]

Well shit, if they haven't announced/released the 980 Ti by the end of May I might just pick up two regular 980's instead.

 

[ssss]

NVIDIA is going to smash AMD with this movement, oh god poor AMD.

If someone could find a GTX970 for 300€ with these two games, then it will be an awesome deal.

 

[Mutagenic]

I bought my 980 last week. I wonder if Amazon will help me out.

 

[Tacitus_]

I got my 970 like a week ago. I wonder if I can pester the shop for this code too...

 

[Pejo]

Wonder if they're both GoG codes. I hate using more digital platforms on PC. It took me a while to even warm up to using both Origin and Steam. I would like to stick to Steam as that's where the majority of my games are.

 

[Markitron]

There are maybe two pieces of DLC in the whole Arkham series worth owning. I know it's hip to hate on this right now but come on.

Exactly, the base game will have more than enough worthwhile content judging by their last 2 games. It's a bit strange that people would refuse to play what could be a GOTY candidate, just because of a few skins, maps & side stories. I don't like WB practices any more the next guy but come on.

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

Bought my 980 a few weeks ago take it i'm boned?

 

[Genio88]

Titan X buyer over here am cry. Nothing free for us.

Cause they assume that if you buy a Titan X you're rich and you can afford every game

 

[maestrillo]

Good promotion. I remember when I bought my GTX 970, for 4 days y haven't my free game

 

[pahamrick]

Contacted Newegg through the online chat and even though I ordered last week, a free order for Arkham Knight was added to my account.

Love Newegg.

Edit:

Already got the code, now I just need to wait for the actual redemption page to go live as just going to redeem.geforce.com says the code is invalid.

 

[Muzicfreq]

I knew this deal was going to happen. For games that Nvidia talks so much about their tech in usually comes with their upper end cards free.

Contacted Amazon as I bought a GTX970 just last Thursday but they refered me to NVIDIA as the product page on Amazon does not says that it includes any free codes

I'd try again soon as the product page is updated. None of the product pages on newegg listed it, but soon as the rep verified the promo I got it.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

980 purchase incoming

 

[Akiyama_AE]

It's a good time for that now, unless you want to wait for Pascal.

Whats pascal

Glad I saw this, I also chatted with newegg about my 970 purchase from Sunday and they sent me a code as well!

Nvidia's next generation of cards. It's not coming until 2016.

 

[Dictator93]

Are they trying to get rid of these cards before annoucing 980ti?

Considering the action doesn't cover then TItan X, then yes.

Nvidia's next generation of cards. It's not coming until 2016.

2016 is also a long time span for when it can come out. Know one knows when it will come out in 2016 yet. Hopefully earlier though.

 

[AndyMoogle]

Yup. I doubt it will be the first half of the year, but hopefully I'm wrong.

 

[Gothos]

Tough decision - buy now or wait for 980Ti which means that the price of 970 will likely go down. Choices, choices, hmmmmmm........

 

[ValfarHL]

I based my decision on purchasing a 970 just last week on wanting to play Witcher 3 and Project Cars like a

Spoiler

semi-

boss. Also GTA V. Maybe Batman too.

 

[Akiyama_AE]

Nvidia's next generation of cards. It's not coming until 2016.

Thats a long way to go, I'm better of getting the current card with Witcher 3 and Batman

 

[BY2K]

How much is the 980ti going to be priced at?

 

[Overdoziz]

If someone could find a GTX970 for 300€ with these two games, then it will be an awesome deal.

Newegg has it for around the price, but that's for shipping to the Netherlands only I think. Not sure if the deal is up yet for Newegg outside of the US, though. Doesn't say anything about it.

 

[Hrothgar]

Newegg has it for around the price, but that's for shipping to the Netherlands only I think. Not sure if the deal is up yet for Newegg outside of the US, though. Doesn't say anything about it.

Newegg has it for €300, but that does not include the €70 tax/duty fee + €20 shipping that shows up when you checkout.

 

[jet1911]

A GTX970 is still 400$ in Canada, so expensive.

 

[Hip Hop]

It's a good time for that now, unless you want to wait for Pascal.

It really doesn't make sense for someone running a 590 to wait that long.

Might as well just get a card now and if they really want to upgrade then, they can just resell the card.

 

[thuGG_pl]

Fuck, I bought 970 half an hour ago...

 

[Overdoziz]

welp, never mind then :/
I don't get why it's so expensive in Europe.

 

[Mithos]

A GTX970 is still 400$ in Canada, so expensive.

Yeah same price around here (Sweden), I wish I could get a GTX 970 for ~us$300.
