Those codes that come with gpu's usually do not include any pre-order bonus. I know with Arkham Knight, it looked like we might, but they changed the subid at the last minute before release.

It won't include those bonuses like Js93583 said. I've had 4 games from nvidia vouchers.

I wish we knew what "- Mother Base Staff 3" was.

It's the only interesting preorder bonus

- Digital copy of METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES (Giftable!)
Can get for 5$.
- Emblem "VENOM SNAKE"
Eh.
- Mother Base Staff 3
Probably early access?
- Collector's Video
Can youtube.

I love that they included a GZ gift as a pre-order bonus. Everyone who would be pre-ordering Phantom Pain would almost certainly already have GZ, so its a terrific way to get more people interested.

they always put the excuse "gift it to a friend!" to make him/her interested in the game and buy the new one :3

Also, from what I've just read, I'm guessing Mother Base Staff 3 will let you start out with some Level 3 staff in your base. The base starts small and simple and expands as you upgrade it, and the people you recruit/capture as you play get added to your base, with corresponding levels depending on how useful they are.

A friend I have just redeemed his code from Nvidia promo. TPP appeared in his account, but there's no pre-order stuff.

Well my Alien:Isolation code was indeed a Pre-Order one, since it came with the 2 Ripley DLCs, but idk for other games.
Edit: Sorry it was AMD code. Sorry for the confusion.

Nope looks like I only got the game from my nvidia code. Although I read that everyone gets the day 1 dlc or something along those lines.

And to think, when I bought my graphics card almost exactly a year ago, all I got along with it was a copy of Daylight, which I still haven't bothered to try. My bet is on tediousness and screamers instead of actual horror~

Wow, that is a pretty disappointing thing to get with a shiny new card. I've never paid enough for a new graphics card for it to come with a game. I've always been on the solid budget-PC end of the scale.

Me too, but I had reserve funds that had pooled over years and I decided to splash out.
It's funny how once you decide to let yourself spend a little extra, things really start to snowball. That's just the nature of hardware, for every extra jump that you spend, there is usually a better model just waiting for you if you're willing to stretch that extra tiny £20 more. It's an endless cycle until the budget components you were originally going to buy have turned into super next-gen doodads, haha.

What can I say, I wanted to 'futureproof' my computer and not have to upgrade it for a good 3 years at the very least. My brother could have used an upgrade so my plan was to use my motherboard and half my pieces to give him what was essentially a new computer, while also killing my own paranoia about component death (bad history with PSUs and motherboards randomly acting all possessed on me).

My bank account hurt like hell, but man is it nice to not have to drop the graphic settings all the time.
Bonus babble : The CPU I got initially was fucked. Ran for a week before it shorted, taking a pin on the mobo out with it. In my frustrations to find the cause, I eventually made the horrible mistake of putting the CPU in at a slight angle and bending a bunch of the pins, literally days before it was due to be picked up for RMA.

Do not envy me, for my spending is a form of greed, there is a special place for me in gaming hell, and it is full of blurry 800x600 ascii graphics. Spending bigger and less frequently isn't always more economic than frequent, smaller upgrades.

I am Uroboros.
This is my story.
My wallet's corpse be a warning to you.
All ye who spend more than £170 on a graphics card, abandon all hope! Repent!

I always aim for $100 on a GPU, with a max of $130. I never buy games the first year they're out, so I never need anything cutting edge, and my build was still easily better than the consoles (360/PS3), so I never felt pressured to play at max settings. I'll probably look towards replacing my MB/CPU/RAM in the next year, but it will still all work perfectly well for my current backlog of games.

I can certainly relate to the bent pins problem (fixed it carefully with a pair of fine tipped pliers and some luck) as well as hand-me-down computer parts. I've always done the same for my brother, although he doesn't use the computer as much anymore, so it matters less now.

The best upgrade I've done in a while was putting in a SSD for my OS about a month ago. The performance boost has been impressive.
