NVIDIA to Bundle Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered with RTX 3090-series and RTX 3080-series

[btarunr]

NVIDIA announced the "Be Greater" game bundle, where the company is handing out Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered (2022) with new purchases of GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, RTX 3090, RTX 3080 Ti, and RTX 3080 desktop graphics cards in the retail channel; as well as gaming notebooks and pre-built desktops that pack the desktop- or Laptop GPU variants of the RTX 3080-series and RTX 3090-series. The promotion period is open from today (September 7) till October 12, 2022, or while stocks covered by the promotion last. The bundle appears to be available in a majority of the markets NVIDIA addresses, but will only be available through select board partners (in case of DIY retail channel graphics cards), notebook/desktop manufacturers, and through select retailers.

I don't think that game is going to be motivation enough to sell a lot of the High End Amperes at current prices. Lower prices might.

Agreed !

I too believe that the ONLY thing that will make people buy these old cards is much lower prices, but unfortunately, that simple fact seems to be beyond nGreedia's comprehension

Maybe they will wake up when not very many people bother with this so called "deal"....

Wait for it....



A 4 game bundle is coming soon!

All the gaming products are overpriced, particularly graphic cards and monitors, it's a rip-off, really. A 65in OLED TV costs less than 32in mini-led monitor. Really, when you watch a Dolby Vision on an OLED TV, you kind of finding it such when watch a movie on a $2000 monitor.

Prices are still crazy.. lol The low-end 3050 is still $370 USD. I haven't been a console guy in over 20 years, but I did buy a PS5. I picked one up from Walmart+ for MSRP. I got the disk version for 499. I still play my pc more while my 2070 is running strong, but I will start playing my PS5 more before I pay these prices. My youngest daughter has me playing Minecraft now. It can run on a toaster. It plays fine on my Surface 3 laptop. lol

I want to say that the current suggested retail price for the 3090 is now $999.
Original MSRP was $1499.

$500 price cut....I wonder how much Nvidia is still making off these GPUs at this kind of price drop? Makes you wonder how much they actually make off all their GPUs. Dropping the MSRP by 1/3.....I wonder if all their GPUs have that much of a markup headroom that they could all be cut by 1/3 and Nvidia would still be making money.

Anyway, no thanks Nvidia. I had to scrape together a few more bucks and get lucky to get my hands a 3080 about a year back. If AMD wasn't worse with their price gouging at the time I would have went with them because their cards were at least around. I'm not interested in anything you're selling now or anytime in the near future, regardless of what game(s) you give away with them.

The cards are not appealing with the next-gen just spend the corner, that abomination doesn't help things.

crypto crashed hard again today, i think btc is at 18k or 17k again. so expect prices to keep plummeting. Nvidia made a crucial mistake in feeding its own greed vs keeping its regular cycle of gamers as customers, and that is the flood of gpu's that has happened, and is still inbound from the miners... is really going to saturate the market to levels we have never seen before. at least in pure amount of numbers. and with RDNA 3 coming swinging with probably a launch date before 4xxx series... hehehehe its the perfect storm. never thought i'd see the day 4xxx series might sit on a shelf at launch, but they might. cause i know I am not the only one considering dirt cheap last gen or rdna3 at launch.

 

[GerKNG]

man he's getting desperate.
DO NOT BUY any ampere card.

 

[Chomiq]

Wait for it....



A 4 game bundle is coming soon!

3 of which are DLC for the first game.

Another half baked idea from Nvidia.

 

[nguyen]

Next month, buy Spiderman Remastered and get RTX3080 for free

 

[Ravenmaster]

Nvidia: PLEEEEEAAAAASE buy our excess of wasted sand.

Gamers: Nah, give us the 4000 series.

"look I know we made out like bandits, fucked over gamers for that sweet sweet mining money, but look, prices are back to msrp and that means they are totally reasonable and fine now right? heck ill even throw in a free game, whats a 1000 bucks anyway? chum change I tell ya, heck buy two while you are at it.

 

[mb194dc]

They're sitting on mountains of inventory and not moving much I guess ?

If I ever meet you someday the first round of drinks is on me.

Their crypto bros stopped being loyal, who knew? Who knew?

 

[1d10t]

Lol try this Jensen , "Buy 1 GTX 1630 free 1 RTX 3090Ti"

 

[TheDeeGee]

Nice try, but no fucking deal.

50% off on the GPU and we're talking.

 

[tussinman]

I like how the 3050, 3060, 3060 Ti, and 3070 are all still currently above MSRP yet nvidias like "uhhh we'll our $1000+ models are currently discounted, look where trying"

What a clown show

 

[MentalAcetylide]

Hilarious... I don't think most gamers need a 3080ti, and if they're playing on a display below 4k resolution and not strreaming, a 3070 would be more than sufficient. If they really want to sell those high-end cards to gamers, they need to drop the prices by at least another $500, because that's about all the value those gamers are ever going to get from those cards; especially when it comes to the 3090 series.

 

[Dr. Dro]

As soon as the market begins to slow, we get game bundles. Neat-o, but I hope that it still doesn't sell. I'd like the next-gen AMD cards to be more or less pleasantly priced.

 

[mama]

Another "narrowing the pipeline" strategy to keep prices from falling further. Let them suffer I say. Nvidia named their price when the market was desperate. Now the desperation is gone. Now the consumers are in control.

 

[Kapone33]

I know that Spiderman Remastered is nice and Graphically beautiful with 4K but it still remains that this Game was released in 2018. They are desperate and paying the price for pumping the market with insane pricing.

 

[my_name_is_earl]

I glad the prices of card gotten so high during 2020 that I didn't buy it. Now they want to give it out for free.
