Hiya, after reading a online article and watching the WAN show last night I wanted to asks the LTT Community what they think about Nvidia linking GPU, and game codes.

 

Does this make you effect how you buy a nvidia Gpu if you see a bundle with a game you already own? 

Or does it make you wait to get s game if it's on a bundle deal? 

 What do you think? 

I am just curious.

Hmm, AMD been doing this already. At least for me. You have to sign in to AMD account or something to redeem game, you also have to go through a verification process to ensure you have an AMD based hardware (either GPU or CPU) then they give you the code

Doesn't make sense to switch to team red either. I would not care tbh.

Both sides, AMD and Nvidia will offer bundles with their gpus on occasion.

I don't honestly think I've ever even seen/heard of someone basing their purchase off of "well, but this one comes with this game." it's always about either "oh its EVGA" or "oh, this has a better cooler/performance"

That's why I bought my current Motherboard, and my first SSD :/...

 

I honestly don't see the issue with this. This is mostly to stop people from selling their codes I guess.

Just remember: Random people on the internet ALWAYS know more than professionals, when someone's lying, AND can predict the future.

I really dont care about the free games they give away. id rather not have a "free" game and have them focus the resources spent on reducing price an improving drivers
