Nvidia has launched a limited-time promotion where you can get the upcoming action-adventure RPG Borderlands 4 for free with select RTX 50 series graphics cards (some of the Best Graphics Cards for Gaming) or select RTX 50-series-powered gaming laptops and desktops.

Purchasing an RTX 5090, RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti, or RTX 5070 prebuilt desktop, graphics card, or laptop will give you a free copy of Borderlands 4 Standard Edition. Not only that, the game also comes pre-bundled with the Gilded Glory Pack (a pre-purchase bonus), which includes one vault hunter skin, one weapon skin, and an Echo-4 drone skin. The base game is $70, so you'll be saving $70 by purchasing one of the aforementioned products if you were meaning to buy it anyway.

This MSI Ventus 3X OC RTX 5070 has a straightforward triple-fan cooler design without any frills, but what more do you need for gaming goodness? 12GB of VRAM lets you stoke the fires of 1440p gaming.

Zotac's base variant of the 5090 might not come with any flair, but it sure as hell gets the job done. With 32GB of GDDR6 VRAM soldered around the GB202 die, this GPU can handle even the toughest loads you throw at it. Whether you're a gamer or a professional, Newegg has got you covered with a low price so you can make this 5090 all yours.

Borderlands 4 promises to be a higher-quality looter shooter than its predecessor, but its high PC system requirements have left fans of the franchise disheartened, including the game's minimum requirement for an octo-core CPU and RTX 3070 GPU.

Luckily, if you are getting the game with a qualifying RTX 50-series GPU or device, you ideally won't have to worry as much about performance issues, assuming your CPU is up to snuff. There are several RTX 5070, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5090 AIB partner card deals going on currently, with several models going for as much as $70 off.

If you have an even higher budget, RTX 5090s are finally dropping in price. Some of the cheapest discounts drop some AIB partner card prices down to $2,399 at the time of writing.
