[Essemm]

Pretty sure it only works for prebuilt systems from the listed manufacturers.

I could have gotten dirt rally from newegg when I bought my 390x if the DAMN THING WASNT OUT OF STOCK ONCE I ADDED IT TO THE CART

 

Had to buy from amazon instead

[Rushfriend]

Does this also apply for non-reference gpu's? For a Sapphire R9 280x for example?

yeah they could have added ac syndicate or rise of the tomb raider on there. at least for the higher tier options 

[IoWii]

Does it not work for non-reference gpus? Doesnt recognize my Gigabyte 380 .-.

[Lotus]

I tried to get Far Cry 3, but apparently XFX isn't an approved manufacturer...

Damn it. For fucks sake. Imma send an angry email to AMD

[Kinda Bottlenecked]

TO CLARIFY. ONLY PREBUILT OR LAPTOPS. 

[suicidalfranco]

that feeling when i have all the games on my tier and will most definitely never play them

[Shoob]

It's only for prebuilt systems. My 280x wasn't recognized, but I managed to verify my laptop and get a free game.

[DarkBlade2117]

How long will this go for? I'll be picking up a 290x here soon

[carolkarine]

Dirt Rally fuck yes! I've wanted to try it but I always ditch racing games super fast, so I didn't want to invest in it.

[Gofspar]

Good thing my new motherboard for my Alienware M15x comes today, I have a M290X.

Thats a bummer.

Most of these games, if not all, are already available in the Gaming Evolved points system. But that's a lottery rather than a straight giveaway.

 

I wish they'd just add more codes to the Gaming Evolved points system.

[Unhelpful]

Cool, my sister is going to get a few games.

[iamdarkyoshi]

If they are for prebuilds or laptops, then I shall summon @Kairuteleos and @AviatorSam as they both have shitty AMD prebuild systems :3
