FYI the Watchdogs codes are redeemable upto 30th November, so they could technically get some still from Nvidia/AIBs if they had any left
Let me get this straight were not getting the Watch Dogs because it has to be activated before we actually receive the cards?
Well in that case we should be compensated in another way, rightly so we should receive the Call of Duty.
If Overclockers duck and dodge this then it shows exactly the type of company they are and they will not receive another penny from me
When you consider another big companies customer service is amazing then why would you allow to be treated in this way
Id cancel now but i have waited so long the card is more important than the game but it will leave a sour taste in my mouth, this whole mess will.
As for Kredo, I reported him for that post, absolutely disgusting.... I am English and I find that trully offensive.

Untrue, you cant redeem an Nvidia game code without the hardware physically installed, its checked with Geforce experience and if doesnt see the hardware ID for a 3000 series GPU it doesnt work. Had plenty of them over the last few years from other hardware purchases, if you check ebay you'll see plenty people selling the watchdogs keys but they wont activate if you dont have the 3070/80/90 gpu and is usually stated in the listings, this has been a thing for about 2 years or so with the Nvidia game vouchers, to stop people flooding keys to people outside the promo, and as already stated those promo vouchers are redeemable upto 30th November 2020, so there is a month overlap with the call of duty promo thats started.

I think you mis-read, Knin3 is also correct and so are you
As above, It has to be activated by end of Nov, which technically will come around before a lot of pre-orders are fullfilled, so cards won't be in machines or even delivered by end of Nov and therefore, can't be activated before hand anyway, as you say.. it needs to see the GPU installed to be redeemned. Having a code supplied for the GPU arriving in december would be worthless, unless they (somebody) changed the expiry date to say.. end of Jan.

Which is why they should have been only supplied with delivery orders not in advance, but I agree the redeem dates should have been extended at least 6 weeks due to shortages. In my instance I'm #9 in my queue, so likely to be in a position to have the delivery in 2 weeks, in time to at least redeem one whether OCUK gets us some or I have to buy it from a 3rd party which is still cheaper than the RRP. If by some magic we get the Cod voucher, I'd trade mine for Watchdogs as have no love for COD.

Oh he is back at it!
I have resisted for over a couple of week now but when he outright lies by making posts like that I cant resist!

Yeah, the situation is a bit of a silly one and could easily have been sorted (still could). I got my 3090fe elsewhere and tbh, happy I got it free (WD) because I wouldn't of bought it
Good for you at least then
but I have a daughter inheriting my 2080ti upon my 3090 delivery and she wants all the games as well, so I'd rather not have to buy WDL twice if can be avoided.

It’s been rumour to this point but Gamers Nexus just put up a video half hour before I posted that it’s now been confirmed by several sources.

Anyone find Gamers Nexus to be TOO in depth sometimes? I loose interest quite quickly.
Maybe it’s more about me than gamers nexus.
edit: In fact forget I said anything I’ve just remembered a time I was looking for a AIO and that minutiae helped more than anyone else’s videos although I do still find Steve very dry no offence to the man himself meant.
I suppose it depends what your looking for probably looking to get flamed here for some reason but only tech YouTuber I can actually follow is Linus.

If thats your level enjoy it, but frankly when you are older you'll realise Linus is a noob and just a good presenter, his team around him do all the setups.

Yeah I’m not a big fan of Linus, I’ll watch a video here and there but I know his score.
My eyes do glaze over sometimes with GN though as well, I guess I am after something in between but I can always skip the very heavy stuff in GN videos and get what I want out of them.

Oh know I’m already “old enough” to understand it hence the edit.
I’m not really a Overclocker I build PCs because I like building and doing the hardware etc.
Growing up was a Lego then meccano kid it’s build itself I enjoy.
I know people are “in” to pcs for different reasons mine are building and gaming.
Graphs and looking at the items is usually enough for me.
Like white hawk says I have scrubbed through gamers nexus vids to find what I do want.
I learned by my 2nd or 3rd build what your saying about Linus though.
I guess it’s a combination of what I’m looking for and a short attention span. I just fit that demographic I guess we are just numbers in the end lol.
Linus a “tech YouTuber” ??? He’s anything BUT technically knowledgeable, in my book he’s just a salesman

Should I change it to tech bro ? Lol
Like I said I understand 100% what you guys are saying.
Maybe it’s because he’s not so knowledgeable I can relate ?
A salesman talking to a laymen.
At least I’m still a few steps up from buying my first pre built from a brick and mortar store and getting ripped off by one of their salesmen.
