AMD today announced a new bundle for qualifying systems packing both the company's Ryzen CPUs (3000 or 5000 series) and Radeon graphics cards (RX 6000 family). The bundle includes digital download codes for Far Cry 6 (releasing October 7) and Resident Evil Village as well as a 3-month trial for Xbox Game Pass. Both desktop and laptop systems are eligible.
To be eligible, desktop PCs have to be configured with at least a Ryzen 5 CPU, starting with the previous-gen Ryzen 5 3600 and topping out at the current star in AMD's lineup, the Ryzen 9 5950X.
The full list of desktop CPUs is:
- AMD Ryzen 9 5950X
- AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
- AMD Ryzen 9 5900
- AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
- AMD Ryzen 7 5800
- AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
- AMD Ryzen 9 3950X
- AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT
- AMD Ryzen 9 3900X
- AMD Ryzen 7 3800XT
- AMD Ryzen 7 3800X
- AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
- AMD Ryzen 5 3600X
- AMD Ryzen 5 3600
And the desktop GPUs consist of:
- AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT
- AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT
- AMD Radeon RX 6800
- AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT
- AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT
As for laptops, only those featuring the latest Ryzen 5000 series processors, starting at the Ryzen 5 5600H and 5600HS, and AMD Radeon RX 6000-series GPUs are included in the promotion.
This latest move by AMD aims to increase how attractive its offerings in the prebuilt gaming desktop market (including the best gaming PCs) are. It also so happens to be the area where AMD's GPUs are most likely selling closest to suggested retail price. More customers may opt for it if they were already planning on acquiring both the bundled games.
The bundle offer is currently available for North America and Europe at participating retailers.
