NVIDIA Partners Bundle Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War with RTX 3080 and RTX 3090

Caring1 · Oct 30, 2020

Gotta keep those pre-orders coming in.

Game sizes are getting insanely large in GB they should sell games as a usb 3.1 drive and play it off the usb because now days you need a 8TB ssd just for games and most of us have about 512gb or 1tb ssds.

Better to bundle COD with a 2TB SSD.

I like clever short answers. Local computer parts store just gave it to me: Just wait!

not sure about this gen, but last gen was still the case, the code sent is an nvidia proprietary, and only works via Geforce Experience and https://redeem.nvidia.com/ (which actually made me download Geforce Experience anyway), thats how I got Control and Wolfenstein Youngblood. It would have not worked if I still had my GTX 1080, believe me I tried.
AMD does the same, you go redeem a code on their website, and it makes you download a checker.

An by the way, we get our codes digitally via email, so there's no other way.

Yeah, not sure how it was last year. I was able to redeem Watchdogs Legion while the RTX 3080 was being shipped to me a few weeks ago (I had the RX 5700 XT installed at the time). I just couldn't get the Geforce Now 1-year sub since it required Geforce Experience to redeem it.

lol since when is COD known for their innovation? It's basically like FIFA at this point. You just have to have the newest one although it's exactly the same. They kind of killed this model themselves with Warzone, so now they can only sell their shitty campaigns.

Btw. I don't know but maybe the power of COD can now improve some stocks for the cards? No? Ok..

I thought black ops 3 was very innovative, the campaign was amazing, the mobility made it super fun imo. it was done just right imo there was an RTS map in campaign mode. there was excellent multiplayer, great map design. i really loved the mobility of 3

My Tuf 3080 is still enroute and I can't install Watchdogs, I get this message in GeForce Experience. I have a 2080 Ti installed right now.

Try redeeming the code on https://redeem.nvidia.com/. It gave me the UPlay code directly on the website and not in Geforce Experience.

Now that I have a 3080, a 3090 in the mail and got a 3070 yesterday, I'm honestly ready for the 4000 series.

The 3000 series wins on price, but I'm not completely amazed by performance yet.

No offense but, were you high when you posted this? You literally can't get any of these cards ANYWHERE, but yet I'm supposed to believe you have all 3 of them? :wtf:

I can't tell if you're trolling. :wtf:

Some people are lucky, I guess. I jumped on the EVGA queue for the FTW3 Ultra when it was set up late September and was sent an e-mail on October 6 to purchase it (MSRP of $810) within 8 hours of receipt of the e-mail.

The RTX 3070 definitely had more stocks on launch because a couple of colleagues of mine (here in Pittsburgh) were able to grab them from Best Buy's online store at around 9 AM launch day, $499.99. It's sold out now though. They did not have any luck on the RTX 3080 and 3090 launch days.

Why even bother bundle games with graphics cards that doesn't exist because they ain't in stock??????

JustAnEngineer · Oct 31, 2020

I put in auto-notify requests at NVidia, Best Buy, B&H Photo Video, Newegg, Amazon and EVGA back on 9/17 - the day of the so-called "release" of GeForce RTX 3080. I requested updates for one model from NVidia, five models from EVGA, three models from Asus and one model from PNY. These are all of the RTX 3080 cards that are 300 mm or shorter and will therefore fit into my case.

Aside from one full day of a repeatedly-glitched message from Newegg that didn't have any stock to back it up, I got ZERO hits for any of these requests for six weeks. Several of the retailers sent out apologetic e-mails that they had not forgotten about those of us on the waiting list, but they just weren't receiving any stock to sell. Some of the products got de-listed completely from the retailer's sites when it became apparent that they were not going to receive any cards.

After AMD's impressive Radeon RX 6000 announcement this week, however... I received an e-mail from EVGA late Wednesday night (10/28) advising that I had a short window of a few hours in which I could purchase one of the cards that I had requested. I was able to order an RTX 3080. I hope to have it in my hands by Tuesday night.

Weird that some codes are not consistent. I don't know what was different with mine, but I was able to redeem Legion on the NVIDIA site and then UPlay while I didn't have any Geforce card installed at the time.

All I can confirm is that redeeming the Geforce Now 1 year subscription gave me the same notice when I tried to redeem it on the website.

Hyderz · Oct 31, 2020

well this sucks, i got the gpu but galax brand only limited to certain countries.....

Looks like EVGA has their promotion page up.

EVGA can't even confirm their 3080 stock at this point so it's not like it matters.

Maybe you should send them all back and do something else with your time rather than epeening on a forum with it.

Your average post is vomit quality. Reflect.

SKD007 · Oct 31, 2020

This will be a better deal. 6800xT 650 and 3080 will be 635 with this game.. nice. Let’s see what AMD will offer. They may not as the cards are good :/

Hey, maybe "shitty" was a bit harsh, I admit. I actually enjoyed COD campaigns every time I played them. Just that since Modern Warfare, all their campaigns seem very similar in many ways. But I haven't played Black Ops 3, so I can't judge that. I've actually been playing COD since COD 2 and I still love COD. It's also maybe the most polished shooter to date. They really have that aspect down after how many iterations at this point???

danbert2000 · Oct 31, 2020

This is a great move for them since they get all the good press for including the free game, and then they don't actually have to give it out since stock is still probably somewhere between 20,000 and 50,000 cards shipped, and most of those were before this promotion. Nvidia really has this figured out, until Nov 11th of course....

Clearly though, if you supposedly have all these unicorn GPUs, your D isn't that long.
