I bought two 1070 FTW one week before Gears of war 4 was bundled with 10 series cards. I guess many of us did miss that promotion.
It would be nice if EVGA in apology gesture would allow us to get these bundles.

Man I think you are forcing it XD as a good gesture they are giving you free crossship RMA and free thermal pads 6w/mk that cost like $20. 
You are stretching it too much 

i believe nvidia was promoting that deal, i don't think it's EVGA's call.
 
then we got *free powerlink, thermal pads.
 
 
*shipping charges may apply.

Free pads are not a bonus. They are nessesary.
Ccrossship RMA is ok, but i dont have 1000€ on my CC for them to charge.
Free power lint is available for all. Its not something to compensate their mistake.

And pads are not free. They should be on the card since it left factory.

The pads are actually an expense of card owners, who have been putting undue wear on their cards, and who have to deal with ordering them, waiting for them, and installing them.
 
They're not a gesture any more than a car dealership sending you engine oil after they forgot to put in your vehicle's engine before you purchased it and drove it off their lot is a gesture.

Why do you think you should get a free Gift.
We need to return back to using the Rod, spare the rod spoil the child has destroyed America.
 
EVGA Needs to Give No Apology, they are taking care of their customers just fine as they always have done and will.

I have the pads arriving Friday but a lot of good they'll be, my 1080SC blew out Sunday and is in EVGA's hands now for a RMA. I'm more concerned with having a rock solid product like they've always provided in the past. I do like the powerlink however, great little item!

I just spoke with EVGA's CEO.!!!
 
They will provide No Man's Sky special edition as  a token of apology  

Im not saying we SHOULD, im saying that it would be nice.
Why? Because this situation SHOULDnt happen. Unfortunatly it did.
If i spend 1000€ on something, that is not as it SHOULD be, i expect at least a simple official "we are sorry".

They didnt even notify their customers about this problem. Someone who dont read forums wont even know that there is a problem.
 
No man's sky? Damn i was hoping for Mafia 3 LOL. :)
