Gigabyte and Intel have kicked off a new cashback bundle promotion here in the UK. The deal invites customers to buy both a Gigabyte Z97 or X99 motherboard and Intel Core CPU and earn as much as £90 cashback.
This new promotion is running in parallel with Gigabyte's 'Buy One, get TWO!' promotion announced exactly a month earlier. As a reminder, that is an interesting promotional 'upgrade warranty' offer which "provides the customer the right to exchange their 9 Series Black Edition motherboard within three years of the purchase date for one model from a future series".
Looking again at the new offer, of course there are Ts & Cs about which motherboards and processors qualify for the cashback amounts and how much buyers can expect to get back. To keep it simple I have reproduced Gigabyte's two tables of motherboards and Intel processors (above and below) with the cashback amounts indicted next to the combo.
Broadly speaking Gigabyte's Z97 and X99 G1 Gaming, OC and UltraDurable (and UltraDurable Black Edition) motherboards are all included in the offer. The best cashback you can get if from buying an X99 OC motherboard with Intel i7 5960X chip, reaping the full £90 in return. Unfortunately many board/chip combos earn cashback as low as £22.50 – but that's still better than none if you were going to buy such a combo anyway.
This Gigabyte and Intel cashback promotion is in effect now until 27th December 2014. Full terms and conditions are available here.
