AMD GAME PROMO: 2016 AMD APU, CPU and Discrete Radeon™ Graphics Cards Systems Campaign

Sign in or create an account
Download AMD Product Verification Tool and follow the instructions to redeem your game.
(After you choose your wanted game, click next again to skip the empty bonus offer. I got confused here haha).

Check T&Cs here or below to see if you own a qualifying product https://www.amd4u.com/amdgamepromo/files/2016_AMDGamePromo_T…
sorry for terrible copy&paste, better look at the pdf

Some problems with detecting CPU. Possible work around until fixed is to send them an email with proof of purchase and Serial Number(see the pdf above for details) T&Cs say only eligible for products purchased during campaign period so ultimately this promo only applies to new systems. seems to work well if you only have a qualifying GPU(no AMD CPU). even if you have an AMD GPU but you also have an AMD CPU, it will scan the CPU first and fail. had my r9 270x for 2yrs and it worked.

          I think it's more your tone. It is indeed frustrating that AMD drop support for products so quickly, but you are never going to get a good reception by being so aggro about it.

          The weird thing about this promo is that people with older products are in fact getting freebies, while people with brand new stuff are having issues.

        Maybe you can go into Windows registry editor and change some values to trick the program into thinking that your computer was built by one of those manufacturers.

        If you navigate to this directory in REGEDIT
        HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OEMInformation

        you can add in some strings to give your computer a manufacturer name and a model number.

        If your computer is a custom built PC, OEMinformation would not contain any keys, simply right click and point to NEW -> String value

        Then give the String a name of Manufacturer and the value of Dell.
        Then create another string with the name Model and the value of say, XPS 8900
        If you want to give it a logo, you can create one called Logo and then in the value box type in the full path for a bitmap image. Just make your own using MS Paint, and make sure said logo is stored in the system32 directory
        (e.g C:\Windows\System32\oemlogo.bmp).

        If somebody can try this out (I can't because the website seems to be dead for me) and report back, would be a ozbargain hero.

      Got that as well. Sent them a ticket with pictures 4 days ago and I reckon it'll take them a month to get to my ticket LOL.

      Their programmers need to get their programs to explain what went wrong.

      It needs to list:
      CPU: Checked (invalid or valid manufacturer)
      GPU: Checked (invalid or valid manufacturer)

      From their one line "Your manufacturer is not valid", I'm just assuming they checked my intel CPU and didn't bother to check my GPU.

  • SeaBiscuit on 24/02/2016 - 08:23

    Update:

    originally i had issues

    Finally got past the 'skip looping issue' (after a a while) and then i got

    'Sorry, You have reached your limit.'

    so logged a ticket with support.

    after sending them a photo of the serial on the side of my MSI r9 290 4g they resolved it for me,

    i managed to go through the AMD online process and claimed DiRT Rally,

    i purchased mine in june 2015, they asked for invoice but i side stepped that request and sent the serial instead
