RyanSmithAT: There really isn't any precedent for this.RyanSmithAT: So AMD is in the unenviable position of trying to engineer a soft landing on video card prices - and to keep them h….RyanSmithAT: Suffice it to say, while video card shortages seem to be over, the weird times in the video card industry are not.RyanSmithAT: In short, video card demand has dropped tremendously.gavbon86: I can't even believe it was that close either! I didn't have Bakole winning every round,….gavbon86: I found a couple hard to score, simply because Bakole was just swinging wild things and Y….I remember Yoka absolutely schooling him, the… gavbon86: We must live in alternate dimensions then.My GTX670s, meanwhile don't seem to have an issue with it (he gave me the second copy). He'd had nothing but problems (both rendering and performance) with the game (and only that game). For people who are interested in the bundled game, its a double win as people tend to assume that if the game is bundled with the card, it will work optimally on the card.Ī friend of mine fell prey to this when he bought two GTX660Ti cards with Metro Last Light bundled. They usually just see that the more expensive card is still selling better and assume there is something better about it that they are missing. While a lot of people probably instinctively know that game bundles help sell cards, not many can (or try to) quantify what the game bundle is worth when comparing competing cards. Also, it makes the competition look worse.
If you can keep the price of your hardware up and still sell them, then it is easier to segment your line-up. JPForums - Wednesday, Jlink Also, perceived value.However that looks to be coming to an end at the end of this month. Of note, this marks the first TXAA enabled game to ship in several months and the first such game released since TXAA creator Timothy Lottes left NVIDIA earlier this year for Epic Games.įinally, for GTX 650 buyers, a quick check shows that NVIDIA’s $75 Free-To-Play bundle is still active for those cards. So “tessellation, NVIDIA HBAO+, TXAA antialiasing and surround technologies” appear to be NVIDIA additions to the game. On a side note, while Blacklist isn’t being branded as a The Way It’s Meant to Be Played Game, NVIDIA’s press release did note that they’ve been providing engineering resources to Ubisoft as part of their deal. The promo itself will run until the end of the year or until NVIDIA runs out of codes though historically NVIDIA is likely to replace the bundle before the fall/winter game rush. This promo comes about a month before the game actually ships - Blacklist won’t be shipping until August 20 th – so GeForce video card buyers will have to sit tight for a bit before they can playing the game. The specific edition being bundled is the Digital Deluxe edition, which among other things includes bonus items and a copy of the previous Splinter Cell game, Conviction. As is usually the case, all of the typical etailers are participating, with participating etailer and retailers throwing in a voucher for the game with qualifying purchases.
Much like the previously expired Metro: Last Light bundle, the Splinter Cell Blacklist bundle is for the GTX 660 and above, including the complete GTX 700 series, but strangely not NVIDIA’s most expensive cards, GTX 690 and GTX Titan. This time around NVIDIA is partnering with Ubisoft to get their latest Splinter Cell game, Splinter Cell Blacklist, included with most NVIDIA cards. NVIDIA sends word this evening that they’re launching a new GeForce video card game bundle for the summer timeframe.
