I can get a flash drive free AR
and I can get Far Cry for $20 lol

Isn't this considered "thread crapping"? Man you'd think a person with that many posts would know better.

not exactly sure why the OP hasn't updated the title yet, but i wouldn't expect this from a Diamond Member w/ almost 4k posts.

Agree. Deal is ice cold IMO and the title is misleading.

Not a hot deal if you're looking at buying RAM. You can get 512mb of CL2.5 Corsair for the less than Crucial's CL3 stuff.

Newegg: CORSAIR ValueSelect 512MB 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Unbuffered System Memory Model VS512MB400 - Cas Latency: 2.5 Retail $44.50
Crucial: DDR PC3200 ? CL=3 ? UNBUFFERED ? NON-ECC ? DDR400 ? 2.6V ? 64Meg x 64 $71.99

Is it worth it to pay $27 more to get slower RAM and a game that costs $20 in bargain bins?

What's the speed on the 2GB SD card from Crucial?


I gotta buy a 2GB SD Card for work.... if the 2GB Card is fast enough, I might as well buy it from Crucial and pick up a program for playing

NO,

the offer is only valid through crucial.com and if you are buing this for a buisness and your boss is going to remburse you then I say get the crucial for your employer and get the free game for you.

I know the rules of anandtech.
Yes it is misguiding. Saying a free copy of Far Cry would be an ACTUAL free copy with no extra deal necessary...
If it werent to be misguiding, you would put in summary... "With a $65 purchase from Crucial"...


The deal isn't worth it IMO, it would be warm, or lukewarm, but not hot...
But hey, its a deal for any crucial guy

No. How is it a scam? I am not getting anything out of it. You clicked on the link and it told you more. I posted this because I thought it was in everyones best interest.


If you have $75 to spend on ram, why buy some other kind when you can buy quality crucial and get a far cry game for the same price. It is free.

Free with purchase is NOT free. Is this guy just dense or is there an ulterior motive behind the misleading title? Like some rating for thread reads or being an employee? He has had a lot of complaints about it being misleading, had edited the original post, but still refuses to be honest about the thread title.

I am being honest about it. I do not see what the problem is that is why it has not changed.

No I am not Employed by Crucial or It's parent company Micron
No I do not hold stock in Micron Technologies
No I do not have any monetary interests with them
No I am not affiliated with them or have ever worked as a supplier, advertiser, etc
Yes, I have purchesed a few DIMMS from them in the past. -That is it. Crucial is an easy company to do buisness with.

I gave full disclosure and the proper link in the opening post, I am not asking you for money, so how is this a scam?

Add 10% off the total cost of the order plus a free copy of far cry, how can you go wrong with a deal like this if you are in the need of memory or video?

Crucial Sells more than just Ram.

  1. Flash memory- SD, Multimedia Card, Compact Flash, Mini SD, Mini MMC, Memory Stick DUO Pro, and XD
  2. USB Memory Card Readers
  3. USB Flash Drives/ Pen Drives
  4. Graphics Cards from ATI
  5. DDR, DDR2, PC133/100/66, FPM, and Ballistix

http://www.crucial.com/promo/index.asp?prog=farcryus

Not a bad deal if you buy $65 worth of flash ram or a Video Card and get a copy of Far Cry.

To sweeten the deal further Crucial is now offering 10% off all ram upgrades of 512mb (or larger).

. Are you happy now? it has been there the whole time.

Topic = Thread title = I don't want to waste my time reading this thread if I don't get a copy of Far Cry for free.

EDIT: Just to clear things up, the title of this thread is:

Free Copy of Far Cry
And Get 10% off Crucial Memory


Buy $65 worth and get a free copy of Far Cry != get a free copy of Far Cry

The point is you can spend $65 at crucial.com and not get a copy of the game. You must enter this code to get the offer. So if you have $65 or more to spend on ram, then why not go to crucial.com and get 10% off and a copy of far cry that you otherwise would not have?

The point is, it's not free because you have to spend $65. All we're asking is you put that in the title.
