Shit. I bought this last week for the witcher. You think amazon would let me redeem arkham knight?

I wouldn't expect much luck.

Amazon chat might be like the old ea chat so who knows. Worth's a shot
Y'know, I just upgraded around Christmas time, but now I'm wondering if I should buy a 980 considering the drawbacks of the 970, especially if you can get two big games with it for free. Well, one and two-thirds, considering the crap that WB is probably gonna pull with Arkham Knight, but a free copy of Witcher 3 and two-thirds of a Batman game is still a good deal when bundled with a £500 graphics card.
Also, I haven't done SLI before, but is it possible to SLI a 980 with a 970, or do I need two 980s to successfully get the boost?

Two 980s.
With suitable power so you don't fry everything.

Colour me surprised. Emailed Scan and they sent me a code.
Oh sweet I was planning on getting a 970 this month for my b-day

Amazon chat got it for me too, but I have to wait 24/48 hours for an email :/
Am I supposed to have a copy of both? Cuz I only got Witcher 3
I mean... I didn't want to upgrade from my 770 yet... but you're not giving me much of a choice, are you Nvidia?
fuck.. is it time to upgrade from the GTX 670 finally? I'm guessing I won't be able to run witcher 3 well with that even though my other components blow past the recommended specs
Holy shit this amazon chick I talked to was legit as hell.
She was looking through my order history and told me she was drooling over all the stuff I bought and how she's looking for an upgrade from her old graphics card and we talked about games and shit while my stuff wen't through.

Quick, now's your chance to get to know her.

Now order a ring off Amazon and propose to her right now.
Amazon is usually really chill about stuff like this. I'd argue if you bought it within the past month, they'll make it good.

Kidnap the remaining members of The Beatles and hold them hostage until you're paid no less than one million dollars.
No surprise. They wanna get rid of their 980 inventory before releasing the 980 TI in a month, which would drop the price of the 980 down anyway almost 100€/$..

get a 970 4gb
you will be pleased
Also I had just bought a GTX 970 from Amazon but returned it. Wasn't worth it over the 670 imo.
I had lots of crashes and problems in games (mainly GTA V) that I didn't have with my 670.
Maybe I'll wait some more and either get a 980 / 980 TI, or wait for the next gen
Certainly a better deal then what I got for my 980's
I got the Crew and Assassins Creed
Fuck yeah

Just did the amazon chat thing since I bought my 970 a week ago, guy said I'd get a new code in 24-48 hours. Pretty dang sweet.
Amazon's customer support is really awesome, they extended my prime for an additional month because some books I ordered got here a day late. I'd be surprised if they don't give you a key for whatever game your missing from this offer.
Don't even bother with Amazon support with this issue if you're not in the US. The promotion is US only on Amazon.
Is there some international website where people sell these keys? I'm about to buy a 970 and I'm very low on cash.
i ALWAYS miss these promotions i missed it with my GTX 660 and now i missed it with my GTX 970
I bought my 970 from amazon back in march, you think it's worth a try to hit up their chat for a arkham knight code? A new batman game wouldn't hurt.
I was looking to buy both those games anyway. Maybe I should see about upgrading.

Also, can anyone explain to me why when I search something like "GeForce GTX 970" there seem to be a bunch of different brand names for the same product?
Each company messes around with the hardware to better suit their settings. Some are better than others, but they're all generally the same if they cost the same.

For a little extra I say maybe go for the 980 instead. It's a bit more expensive, yes, but it actually does have 4 gigs of processing power unlike the slapdash 3.5 gigs of the 970, plus it has a 9%(?) faster clock so you'll be better off getting the 980 rather than grabbing the 970.

Chicks love guys with big hardware orders. You should see if she wants to drool all over anything else of yours.
