AMD pushes Radeon purchase with Never Settle games bundle ...

AMD is trying to take advantage of the key game release season and Windows 8 launch by enticing us to buy one or more new Radeon graphics card. The carrot is up to three free games and a further 20% off a fourth, but these aren?t year-old titles, they are fairly recent or even brand new, high profile PC games.

The offer is being called the Never Settle bundle. The savings start at $60 and go right up to $170 depending on which graphics card you purchase. A Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition or HD 7800 Series card will earn you a free copy of Far Cry 3. Move up to buying two of those cards and you qualify for Hitman: Absolution, too. Top of the list is, of course, a HD 7900 Series card purchase, which gets you a copy of Sleeping Dogs as well as the other two games mentioned.

The final cherry on top is a 20% discount off the purchase of Medal of Honor: Warfighter regardless of which of the above cards you purchase.

AMD states this is the biggest gaming bundle they have ever offered with a Radeon card, and they promise to update it in the new year. Apparently early 2013 (post-February) will see both Bioshock Infinite and the new Tomb Raider added to the deal, most likely in place of Far Cry 3 and Hitman: Absolution.

The games will not only be free with a new card purchase, but some of them will benefit from the latest 12.11 Catalyst drivers. AMD claims in a game like Sleeping Dogs or MoH: Warfighter the drivers offer as much as a 15% performance gain.

So, if you?re in the market for a new graphics card at least wait until Windows 8 sees a release as that?s when the Never Settle bundle will apparently appear.
