:(, well I spoke to amazon today and they said they will look into it and get back to me. Also, scan.co.uk have and are issuing refunds so it can't only be US users only,

Well, we will see, if I get a refund I will mention it here. Do you own a GTX 970, did you get a refund? If so was it 20% of the price you paid for the GTX 970 or the price of the GTX 970 now?

Well I just contacted amazon.co.uk on a live chat told them that I brought the GTX 970 from them and want to see if I am eligible for a refund, they told me they will contact me within the next few days. Haven't had the refund yet but if you contact the company you bought it from and have proof of purchase such as a receipt or digitally online you should be good.

What's this about refunds?

 

I heard something about 970 owners getting $30 each because of a settlement a few days ago, but nothing about refund stuff.

Well, settlement money then but I'm just calling it a refund. Is it set $30 no matter what GTX 970 you brought or 20% of what you paid for your 970? I haven't really looked into it.

I'd think a refund would include returning the graphics card.

I read $30, so I'd assume it's a fixed amount.

 

It'd be more of compensation than a refund.

Ah ok. Well, a refund can just money back a refund doesn't always require returning the product/object.

I live in Canada and ordered a 970 from newegg.ca and I emailed them about people outside the USA getting the rebate and here is their reply...

We are aware of the NVIDIA lawsuit and we’ re working with them directly for more instructions on how to handle the issue. Owners of the Nvidia will be receiving an email from us with more information. Please keep an eye out for an email from Newegg.

So it seems like people outside the USA may get the rebate too, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

More info onthis please? I got my 970s from scan, but am currentlly having a clusterfuck of problems with them over my motherboard.

 

 

Well Ive emailed them about this as well, and will wait for a reply. A full refund would be amazing and help with all the costs due to the nightmares Ive been having with my motherboard atm.

Linus is my fetish.

You may get refund for your motherboard if you bought it recently or they will exchange it. There's no way you're getting a full refund on the 970 though. 

First build every: Intel Core i7 4790K, Asus Z97-A/USB 3.1 motherboard, Kingston HyperX FURY 1866 2x8 16GB Kit, Gigabyte Windforce GTX 970 G1 Gaming, Corsair Obsidian 450D Black ATX Mid Tower, Samsung 850 EVO 250GB & 3TB Toshiba HDD, EVGA SuperNOVA 750W G2, Corsair H100i GTX 240mm, Gigabyte Bluetooth 4.0/Wifi Card, Logitech G700S. Running on Windows 10

Well newegg.ca sent me another email and it seems this rebate is only for people in the USA....

Thank you for contacting Newegg regarding the class action lawsuit settlement with Nvidia regarding the GTX 970 graphics card.  We have not received any information in regards to Canadian purchases for the GTX 970. In the event that we receive any information from Nvidia, we will notify you.
