Redeeming AMD Games (with the purchase of hardware)

Katarn · October 9, 2019

I ordered an AMD build (R5 3600, RX 5700 XT Sapphire Pulse) from a company that works with wholesale tech (they supply retailers, but they can sell to individuals as well). They import their tech from German wholesale company Siewert & Kau. I am interested in the steps to claiming my prize from AMD (a game + Xbox Game Pass) once I get the PC.

I have four questions:

- How do I activate the prize? Is there a code in the box? Do I get it by email? Does AMD scan my hardware for the CPU/GPU and give me the coupons that way?

- Will I be able to use Windows Game Pass on another computer (like my traveling laptop) which is not AMD?

- Since the CPU gets me 3 months of Xbox Game Pass, and the GPU also gets me three months of Xbox Game Pass, does that total to 6 months?

- If not, can I maximize the trial by claiming the Xbox Game Pass for the GPU first, and at the end of the three months, activating the one for the CPU?

I haven't had previous experience with these kinds of things, so please stay calm if I am asking ultra-noob questions.

In my defense, the person to whom I was making the order also had no idea about the prizes.

So how do I go about this?

What should I do to claim my reward?

Thanks

You will receive instructions. You should go to amdrewards.com (or something like that), enter your serial number then download a software that will scan your hardware

Most likely. It's linked to your Microsoft account but I'm just guessing because I don't have it myself.

No idea but you might want to email the AMD support service.
