Asus has a new cashback offer on its AMD RX 7000 series graphics cards in Europe, offering buyers some decent discounts.
Tom's Hardware reported that this is for those in the UK, Austria, France and Germany, and that the offer applies to select Asus TUF Gaming graphics cards (like the excellent RX 7900 XTX) and dual graphics cards from the RDNA 3 family.
Unsurprisingly, most of the cash comes from the more expensive GPU, so with the 7900 the US, or AU$170).
The cashback amount reduces proportionately as you go down the RX 7000 GPU hierarchy, of course, but buyers of an RX 7600 (Dual) still get a valuable £35 cashback for their purchase, or €40 (around (about $45 in the US). 70 Australian dollars).
There's an extra touch: in Germany, you also get a Gamesplanet voucher worth the same value as the refund, as a bonus, and in the UK, you get an Asus RateMyGear reward (worth £25, so it's not so generous). like Germany). Unfortunately for French buyers, they only get the refund, without any additional bonus.
Shoppers should make sure to purchase from one of the select retailers running the promotion in these countries, with the offer ending at the end of the month on March 31. However, keep in mind that you can redeem your cashback until April 5, 2024, so don't forget.

Analysis: Give other regions some cash back
While the cashback is obviously a welcome money-saving initiative, we'd still prefer a direct discount, although of course we're arguing here. It's good to see a reduction in price, especially as there's a good chunk of the RX 7800 The leader of the pack in Our roundup of the best GPUs is an even more tempting option.
That this is a Europe-only deal seems a bit strange, and we wonder if a similar scheme will come into play for other regions. It seems a little strange to miss the US here, so maybe that's in the works? We will be attentive to the news.
Naturally, though, before pulling the trigger on an Asus RDNA 3 graphics card, it's clearly worth considering rival products that could, at any given time, be cheaper than the TUF or Dual you're looking at, even after the rebate .
