Does anyone else also think the bundles are mostly a bad deal for the customers, and maybe only a good one for AMD? First of all the monitor. Chances that I need one are fairly small. And if yes, why would I want exactly that one? I personally think the resolution (and especially pixel density) is below what I would want now, especially with so much GPU power available. A 4k screen with Freesync would be more attractive. Then the CPU/board. Chances are a little higher that one could use that, but I guess even less than 40% of buyers would require a CPU and board. If we restrict it to Ryzen 1700 options the number would be even less, since a 1600X might be the more interesting option for many gamers. And of course some may also prefer Intel. If we treat the CPU/board part as the main benefit of the bundle it's also still mostly a zero-sum game, you pay 100$ extra to get a 100$ discount. I could most likely get a better overall deal when I buy both GPU and CPU seperatly in shops where each has the best price. When we finally factor the games in it might be a small benefit for a small number of buyers. However their value is really small, since Prey is already some days old and one can get it discounted. If the demand for the bundles is as low as I think and AMD really wants to sell most of the cards in bundled form (predicted by anandtech), then the overall prices will mostly trend towards the bundle prices for all cards due to availability.
