Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 with The Witcher 3 & Batman Arkham Knight

I just bought the reference card Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 card in store a couple of hours ago and I only received Batman steam code as part of the bundle. I was under the impression that I received a gog.com code for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt as part of the promotion that is going on for the month of March? If Best Buy is only including Batman I'll probably just return it and buy somewhere else.

Hello Timdb89,
The GeForce GTX 970 is a great graphics card!  It will be really nice to play Batman: Arkham Knight (Amped about its release).  
These are two separate promotions.  The Witcher: Wild Hunt promotion ended on 05/02/2015 and the Batman: Arkham Knight started on 05/10/2015.  If you purchased the card yesterday (05/14/2015), then you'd only receive Batman: Arkham Knight.  
I’m really hoping that you don't return the item.  We truly do value your purchase.

    I bought the 970 10 days ago and have still not received the code for Batman game. Is it supposed to be sent via email? Digital downloads? Whats the process here? I checked my digital library and see nothing....
    Any help is appreciated!

    Hello josepiedaly,
    The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 is a sweet graphics card!   I can't wait for Batman: Arkham Knight!  The codes can vary depending on several factors.  Usually it will be on the bottom of your purchase or sent to the email address associated with your My Best Buy account.  Please make sure that you check the "Promotions" tab for Gmail accounts and the "Junk or "Spam" folders for other accounts.

  • Can I run a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970?

    I posted something similar before but can someone tell me if I have the right cooling, motherboard ect. to run a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 graphics card. I have a HP Pavilion 500-319na and the product number is G9B00EA#ABU. I know I need a better power supply which is why is I'm upgrading to 500w. Btw the reason I'm asking is because I have no idea about unscrewing my computer and checking the motherboard and all of that so any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi, You might want to search the forum for "500-319na" as there have been numerous posts with that model.

  • MSI GeForce GTX 970 with MSI Z68A-GD55 (G3) motherboard

    Hi!
    I have seen a similar issue here that was resolved with the help of this forum. (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=251322.0). I still want to ask my questons however, since I have a slightly different situation.
    I recently bought a new Graphics card, a MSI GTX 970, to replace my older EVGA GTX 570. After installing it, the time it takes to startup the computer is quite a bit longer. The very begninning of the startup process is the part that takes longer, I see a black screen and "B2" in the lower right hand corner, with the older GPU this was seen for a few seconds but now it stays that way for about a minute. After that I see some random colors in stead of the MSI logo and then the regular "Starting Windows" image appears, from there the startup is as fast as before.
    When the computer has started it seems to work perfectly, and the new graphics card is great, everything on "ultra" in games etc.
    I guess the way to resolve this issue is to update BIOS. I am a bit afraid of this however, of the risk of destroying something.
    What would be your suggestions? Is it better to update bios or to leave it as it is, since the computer works? Are the any risks with keeping this bios version, that seems to have some issue with the graphics card?
    Any help would be greately appreciated!

    Ok, thanks for the advice.
    I have started looking at the instructions and have downloaded the installer and the bios file. It seems Norton Internet Security has some problem with the installer.  When I start the installer it reaches the point when it shows the current bios version, after that it is interupted by Norton. The reason that Norton gives is that it has found something called "Suspicious.Cloud.9.B" in the file b4.bks. How should I react to this?

  • Does the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M with 4GB really make a difference

    I just bought 27inch late 2012 imac. 3.4ghz i7 32gb ram NVIDIA 680MX 2gb and Im currious does the 780M 4gb really make a difference. I do not play any games. I do have 2 27 lightening bolt displays. I do alot of video editing and photograph. I have all Adobe Products and Apple software but i cannot find any where that the GTX 780m with 4gb will be any better. All I can find is if you play games then 4gb is good.
    Any advice would be great!
    Thank you in advance,

    Certain applications such as Photoshop or Final Cut Pro will benefit from the higher video ram, however the GTX 680M is a very powerful card and the 2GB of ram that it comes with should be more than sufficient for most tasks.
    Only extremely large files/projects will truly benefit from having the 4GB or ram that the GTX 780M supplies.
    The 2013 iMac offers a performance boost over the 2012 version, however the increases in terms of CPU/GPU power are mostly modest.
    The Haswell architecture was designed with mobile use as the primary focus and so areas such as energy usage were the priority.
    The Nvidia 7XX graphics cards run on the same Kepler architecture as the 6XX cards, as with the Intel CPU the improvements are there but there is not a huge leap forward.

  • Re: Returning Nvidia Geforce GTX 970.

    I went to do so with my card 2 days ago and they don’t know anything about this NVidia thing. So maybe they're slow catching up. Would be great if a customer rep notify the store i got my card from so that i can upgrade.

    Hello killerbyte, 
    I imagine if you found incorrect specifications with your graphics card that you were quite frustrated, as this would likely greatly impact your experience utilizing the graphics card. I'm sorry to hear you had trouble with returning your GTX 970 so that you may upgrade. 
    Using the email address you registered with the forum, it would seem you purchased this item in December, giving you through January 15th to return it under our Return & Exchange Promise. As it seems there may have been an issue with the specifications listed for this graphics card, I am reaching out to your local store to see what options we may have for you and greatly appreciate your patience. 
    I will be sure to follow up once I have more information! 
    Sincerely,

  • Returning Nvidia Geforce GTX 970.

    In light of recent events where Nvidia has been proven to have provided false advertising in their specs, is it possible to get my money back or get store credit to purchase a GTX 980? 
    I purchased online and did in store pick up.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello ajax618,
    Thank you for posting! I know how important purchasing a graphics card can be for a computer and when specifications might be wrong it can definitely throw the experience off. I sincerely apologize if this was the case. I would be happy to look into this for you.
    Through your profile I was able to find your order and since you are outside our Return & Exchange Promise, I have reached out to your local store to see what options we may have available to you and will respond shortly once I hear back.
    Please let me know if you have any other questions or concern in the meantime.
    Thank you,

  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX GPU support for the Mac

    When are you going to support GPU for the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX on the Mac in the new After Effects CC?
    Please also consider this a request as well.

    > When do you think us ATi Radeon card users will get a versionof AE that will use our GPU
    After Effects already uses ATI/AMD cards for GPU features, and has for years. The single exception is one feature: the GPU acceleration for the ray-traced 3D renderer.

  • S10 and Nvidia GeForce GTX 280

    Hi
    I just bought a S10 model 6423-45G and a Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 280. The problem is that the powersurply only comes with 2 x 6 PIN power connectors for the graficcard but this new graficcard needs 1 x 6 PIN and 1 x 8 PIN power connector. Is there any S10 models on the market with 1 x 6 PIN and 1 x 8 PIN power connectors at this point in time or is the only solution to put in some power convert to support this graficcard?

  • Problem with Matrox Mini, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570, Premiere 5.5.2 and After Effects CS5.5

    Hello,
    We have a couple video workstation PC's in our office.
    Premiere and After Effects have been crashing lately with increasing frequency - about every two minutes now.
    Here is the setup:
    Hardware
    Matrox Mini - Matrox Utility release 5.5.1
    Nvidia GeForce GTX 570 - Driver release 275.33
    Intel Xeon X5660 2.8 GHz processors
    24 GB Ram
    Software
    Adobe CS5.5, specifically...
    After Effects 10.5.0.253
    Premiere 5.5.2
    Windows 7 64-bit
    We have two 21" LCD monitors in dual display running from the computer, and the Matrox Mini outputs a preview signal to a 15" CRT.
    The crashes occur when I have After Effects and Premiere open at the same time. I am editing in a Matrox 720p29.97 timeline in Premiere. I imported several compositions from AE into Premiere through Dynamic Link and am matching audio with the animations in comps. When I switch back to AE to make an edit in the comp, After Effects generates a crash warning and then gives me the opportunity to save the project under a new name. After saving, it closes down completely. The Matrox WYSIWYG Control Panel in the system tray crashes during AE's crash, disabling the preview to the CRT from Premiere and AE. Since the Premiere sequence is a Matrox preset - in order to have output to the CRT - this freezes the timeline; the video and audio no longer play. When I save and then try to close Premiere, Premiere freezes and will not close without a force quit via the Task Manager.
    In order to deal with this temporarily, I am editing in an AVCHD 720p30 sequence preset in Premiere, which doesn't send a preview feed to the CRT, obviously, since it's not a Matrox preset and the CRT is connected via the Matrox Mini. It's more than a minor inconvenience, since I use the CRT for color accuracy.
    It is frustrating, since we did not have this problem until the recent CS5.5.2 update. We have tried changing drivers for the GTX 570 and changing the Matrox utility software to other versions, but no luck.
    Is there a combination of GTX 570 drivers, Matrox software releases, and AE/Premiere settings that will make this work? I know there are "Known Issue" posts with Nvidia cards on Matrox's website, which include the GTX 570, but, again, this problem started with the Adobe CS5.5.2 update.
    Any help here would be great, and I am willing to provide more information about the system and our crashes if it helps find a solution for the community, as I know this is not an isolated problem after reading Nvidia's, Matrox's, and Adobe's forums. I just can't find a hollistic solution on any of the individual manufacturer's forums.
    Thank You.
    Jordan

    I've been running with Matrox for years, starting with the Axio LE. I do 75% broadcast work and find that the Matrox works very well with my kind of workflow. Monitoring is critical and since we have to deal with 3rd. party solutions, Matrox was my pick dating way back to 2006. Sure I've had frustrations with it, but I've made far more money off Matrox than frustration.
       Here's my nearly crash-free setup:
    Gigabyte GZ-X58A-OC moboard
    Intel 990X (only overclocking to 4.0)
    24Gb of Kingston HyperX Ram
    GTX580 Graphics Card
    Matrox MXO2-LE w/Max
    Crucial 240Gb Sata III drive (the one that has a nearly perfect score on Newegg's site)
    2 x 2Tb WD Blacks Raid 0
    2 x 1Tb WD Blacks Raid 0
    Win 7 Ultimatte (it's a high-end version of Windows that's great for keying!)
    CS5.5 Suite
    Boris Red 5
    Boris Continuum Complete 8
    Trapcode Shine, Form, 3d Stroke, Starglow, and Particular
    Optical Flares by Video CoPilot
       The reason I list all of that software, is that it all seems to get along together, including with Matrox! So, I can't say I highly endorse Matrox because I've never tried Black Magic or running an external monitor off of my video card.
        I use After Effects with all sorts of plug ins and rarely have crashes. If I put in a long day I'll have the usual crashes here and there (mainly with PremierePro), but nothing that has required evan a soft reboot of the computer.
       My frustration with Matrox is mainly the delay that often comes with Adobe coming out with a new release and Matrox taking 2 or 3 months to catch up, though when Adobe went from 5 to 5.5, there was no delay at all.
       I think that a lot of the people who trash Matrox probably haven't used a Matrox product in years. But before you listen to me, I must confess that I was an early adopter (and advocate) of SSDs and even today, many people on this forum think they're still a waste of money!
       I'll close by simply saying that I've not left Matrox after 5+ years, but keep in mind I haven't had the bad experiences that so many others seem to have had, but again, perhaps they had those bad experiences long ago.

  • Is "Asus Strix GeForce GTX 970 OC DirectCU II 4Gb" Compatible with Adobe sotfware?

    Hi!
    I´ve been thinking about buying a new Graphic Card "Asus Strix GeForce GTX 970 OC DirectCU II 4Gb", but when i went to see the requirements for Adobe Premiere, After Effects and Photoshop, that card is not recommended.
    If i buy that graphic card, will it still work fine as the other cards or will it only work with that type of cards that are in the list?

    It will work without any problems and is a top choice.

  • Will Premiere Pro CC work OK with Nvidia GeForce GTX 765M?

    Will Premiere Pro CC work OK with Nvidia GeForce GTX 765M?

    This laptop I am on right vnow has a n nVidai GTX 765M and it works beautifully on Premiere CS6, CC and CC 2014.  You do have to add it to the Adobe file "cuda_supported_cards.txt file or simp[ly delete it.  I hope you know that you have to be plugged in to the AC line to successfully what to edit with a laptop.  Also you can improve the GPU performance if you reset the memory clock on the GPU to 1500 MHz from the default 1000 MHz.  It is because nVidia.slows down the clock to conserve battery.  If you register on the site you can see my results on our Premiere Pro BenchMark (PPBM) site.
