Looks like AMD is putting together another promotion for those who pick up a 7800 or 7900 series graphics card. You get Bioshock Infinite & Tomb Raider free with a 7800 card, or Bioshock Infinite & Crysis 3 with a 7900 card. And if you really feel like blowing a ton of cash and buying two 7900 cards to crossfire, you get the above three games plus Hitman Absolution, Farcry 3, and Sleeping Dogs.

I read this promotion is supposed to go live sometime next week, but NewEgg seems to be offering these deals as of today.

Newegg Graphics Cards

Figured I would provide a link above. I've been waiting for a promotion like this before I picked up another 7850 to crossfire with my other card. The 7950 cards have dropped below the $300 mark and offer a good choice as an upgrade if you're looking to get rid of that old graphics card.

Edit: Here's a list of participating stores/sites taken from AMD's webpage:

Amazon, IBUYPOWER, NCIX US, Cana Computers, Maingear, Newegg, Cyberpower PC, Memory Express, Superbiiz, Digital Storm, MicroCenter, TigerDirect, Falcon NW, NCIX Canada, Velocity Micro.

Ya I read about this a few weeks ago. The shitty thing about it though is that you could be endlessly waiting for a game to come out only for it to not be added or wait for a game to become available and when it isnt another you wanted is no longer available. Also someone who doesn't know they are adding/removing would just redeem their games and not know. I think it would be way better if they just announced the titles that were part of the promotion. It's still a good promo and way better than nvidia but the latest turn is kind of annoying.

I am not sure but I remember reading that the promotion will end on December. So it would be best to redeem your code around that time.

 
Sent another email to support yesterday, today it's 4 weeks since I submitted the promo code, the response they gave me was the same exact response they sent me the first time I contacted them ...

Is this effective immediately? Because going onto eBay and picking up one of these right now would be like 2/5 the price of SR4, and you'll get two other games. lol

EDIT: Nevermind, it definitely is effective immediately.

So if you have one of these codes, do you have to hold back on activating it until there are 3 games you want? Or does it let you "Spend" some games and keep some in reserve to use on future additions?

I'd be tempted to go for it but the only game I'm actually interested in is SR4, and I'm only mildly interested in DMC. If I could buy a code, grab SR4, then keep my other two in reserve in case they add other games I want I'd probably go for it. Maybe. Possibly.

Once you activate the code, you are locked into the games available at that time.

That's why I'm holding off on activating mine until November - if not later. Why? Because the Square Enix games may have fallen off by then (Tomb Raider, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Hitman: Absolution) but I have all of those games, and I'm optimistic that the titles that will take their place will be better anyway. (C'mon, Assassin's Creed IV !!)

 
Can I ask a stupid question?  :dunce:

These keys we get upon redeeming the AMD code....  Are those individual keys tied into our Steam/Uplay/Origin accounts already when we enter in the AMD code?  Or are they generic keys that can be traded (or sold to) others?

I ask, because the hot rumor going around is that Battlefield 4 will be one of the games included with the AMD Never Settle Forever Gold bundle.  But I've already decided to get that on console, because I'm a gamepad guy (and not a keyboard & mouse guy).  However, its entirely possible that I'll be interested in two other games.  So I will probably want to keep the code for two games and trade/sell the third.....

These are individual Steam/Origin/Uplay keys; they aren't tied to an account so trade away.

 
Still haven't received my key for Bioshock: Infinite sent a couple more different emails to support but still keep getting the same carbon copy response ...

I have a unused code from and for the BioShock and tomb raider. Would I be getting that or credits if I redeemed it right now?
 
They just added Bioshock Infinite back to circulation. I like that you can wait until Dec 31st to claim your games. Hoping to get Crysis 3.

 
Just saw that South Park: The Stick of Truth was delayed to March 2014.  So scratch another title off the list of possibly-included "Never Settle Forever" games.  (AMD's promotion says the games chosen by the player must be chosen by December 31st 2013.)

Geez, what are we down to?  Batman: Arkham Origins and Assassins' Creed IV: Black Flag have both partnered with Nvidia.  Watch Dogs and South Park have been delayed...

So possibly Battlefield 4 and....what else....?

 
Not much.  Maybe a few games already out.  

Xcom Enemy Unknown And/or Within
Walking Dead Season 2
 
 
Sad thing is I look at that current list and just don't see anything appealing.

They took off Tomb Raider and FarCry 3. The only games I cared for. If Battlefield 4 isn't added then it was a bad idea for me to hang on to my coupon. :(

That's a good addition, makes it worth it almost for that one alone.

Thanks for the heads-up. I feel a little better about this promotion now knowing that games that won't be released until 2014 can still be included. Maybe I'll get to see South Park and/or Watch Dogs on the list after all.

Anyway, I'm going to continue waiting until we're near the end of December (when the AMD code must be redeemed and the game decisions must be made) before pulling the trigger on my three Gold game choices.

 
Redeemed for Thief, Saints Row IV, and Sleeping Dogs today. Hubby wanted Saints Row IV, but we'll sell the others. Wish there was something for me. Loved getting Tomb Raider before. South Park would be amazing.

 
What does everyone think the chances of them adding any additional games before the promo is over?

I'd be kicking myself if they remove SR4 and Thief.   That third game though doesn't have many good options.

I redeemed mine for this very reason

Same here. Ended up getting Grid for a friend of mine. I doubt Thief is going away anytime soon, but I didn't want to miss SR4. And I don't regret it, I've been playing it and it's a blast!

 
Thanks for bumping this thread. Was planning on getting Saints Row IV for$15 from Amazon this week, but managed to snag a code off e-bay for a few bucks more.

 
I settled for Thief, SRIV, and Blood Dragon as Ive been itching to play it. Now hoping that new games show up in the coming weeks so I dont waste my other Rewards voucher :/

 
when did this expire? I just remembered i have one for buying a 7950 graphic card a few months back. I cant find it now because i was cleaning the house for thanksgiving. If i recall it expires in december sometime doesn't it? I better find it soon, but was wondering if anyone knew the cu off date?

I wasted my 7800 series coupons on far cry 3, and blood dragon and stuff only to realize they were origin only which i will NEVER install. I would not like to literally waste this one too

"Please note the AMD Radeon™ Rewards Terms and Conditions have been updated."  (see link)

from http://www.amd4u.com/radeonrewards/

from the updated Terms and Conditions: "Campaign Period begins November 13, 2013 and ends on March 31, 2014 or when supply of Key Codes is exhausted, whichever occurs first."

Okay, I freely admit that I don't understand this at all.  We had been told all along that the AMD one-time use code must be redeemed by December 31st.  But the new Terms and Conditions confuses me.  Is the new cut-off date March 31st?  If I can't find three games I want now, can I just continue to wait and the list will be updated?

Looks like that's for the new R7 260X cards only.

 
I have some steam/origin keys to trade and this months Gamer Club Unlocked coupons for best buy if anyone wants to trade their sliver or gold coupon. Really just looking for Thief and Saints Row IV &/or Blood Dragon. PM if interested

 
Last day for those with the "AMD Never Settle Forever" promotion is Tuesday, December 31st.  TOMORROW!!

And Saints Row IV is gone !?!

 
well i spent the better part of the last 2 days hunting for my damn card for my gold tier card... couldn't find it. I guess i miss out on the .. what was it 4 or 5 free games? Friggin BS. I specifically remember setting it aside too so i didnt lose it. Blea

Hope you find it. For this reason I usually snap a photo and email it to myself.

Three games. From the same list as the silver tier now (they dropped Saints Row IV in the last day or so.) If you do find it, you'll at least get Thief.

Yeah i just bought one of these on ebay for $15. Wanted SR4, Thief and DX

SR got pulled and DX is the standard version (not the directors cut), so ended up with Thief, Dirt 3 and Sleeping dogs. the last two were really lame, but i had the rest and refuse to use Uplay.

 
Just a heads up that code redemption worked for me today (a few minutes ago). Got Thief and Sleeping Dogs. Not super excited, but free is free.
