Thanks Guys! This was all new to me.
I've never used Steam either. Ha ha.

From what I've read here I may be better off staying with the 5830 rather than 6870. It seems it performs a little better due to better tweakibility (but uses a bit more power too).

I have either sold or gifted about a dozen different games from similar coupons in the past month... this one should work the same way.

If this promotion works like the one that ran last month for a free Dirt3 copy (which I got with an HD6870 also) then this is how it works:

1) The coupon ships folded into the invoice with your card
2) Go to the AMD redemption website and enter the code on the coupon
3) AMD emails you a game key to activate the game on Steam
4) Play and have fun

So to me as a gamer the free copy coupon is worth ~50USD in trade, barter, dollars or BTC
The $49 price comes off the coupon in the shopping cart on NewEgg, so it doesn't affect your upfront cost, but I don't think there is anything preventing you from trading or selling the coupon/code after you receive it.

In my case, I wanted Dirt3 so it was effectively a $50 discount off the top.

Here's the link. Seems to be Human Revolution.
Looks like I have to use the coupon with the card purchase.
So I guess that means I get a game not a coupon and then would have to sell the game.
It says $49 retail. Oh well. Just thinking it may lower the cost of the card a little for me.

(Forum section: well, it has to do with current card offerings. This is with a HD6870. But I may just look for some used 5830s - as that's what I have now anyway.)

I think it's supposed to be $49.99 on PC... price will probably vary from retailer to retailer as usual.

It's probably too early for any to be listed.. the game won't be released in North America until 8-23-11 after all.  It's a highly anticipated game, so it should have some sale value.  .................... or......you can always gift it to me on STEAM...  j/k Wink

I know nothing about games. Newegg indicates this free coupon with some cards.
Does this have any resale value at all?
I won't use it but if it's easy to sell then what sort of price would it get?
check eBay closed auctions
