    EVGA 970 confusion

    http://www.scan.co.uk/products/4gb-e...664-cores-1xdp

    This product says:

    FREE Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt Digital Download LN 63177
    FREE EVGA backplate worth £15.50

    But then has a note saying actually there isn't a free backplate (So why does it say there is?) and you need to order a different product at a higher cost to get the backplate 'free'.

    Also this Scan press release:

    http://hexus.net/tech/items/graphics...vga-backplate/

    Says:

    '3 April 2015 – Spring into action and grab yourself a FREE backplate for the EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SSC ACX 2.0+ (04G-P4-3975-KR) and EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SC ACX 2.0 (04G-P4-2974-KR) graphics cards at participating etailers for a limited time!'

    And the link to the product I've posted *is* the 04G-P4-2974-KR

    I'd appreciate some clarification, many thanks

    The product appears to be set up to advertise that you get both the game and the backplate - which is what I am after. If I go for the other one, does it come with The Witcher?

    Re: EVGA 970 confusion

    Hi,

    I would also like to add this applies to the SSC version as well: LN62140 shows the same thing as the card the OP talks about but I can no see that LN63965 is the one I want. As such, I placed the order without scrolling down and seeing the description which states the same as the OP said about the SC card. When I went through to checkout after clicking the add to basket button, it also clearly states the game and backplate are free and added. This of course is not the case. This I need cancelling as this was not very clear, the order number is E2490662 just incase my request gets missed before it goes through: QLQ1461679.

    Can I also ask why LN62140 has free delivery whereas LN63965 has a charge of £4.57 when essentially it is the same card but with the free backplate (which of course becomes less free due to the delivery). Also does LN63965 come with the free game?

    Many Thanks

    Graeme
