For a limited time, gear up with selected Asus AMD graphics cards and you'll be able to get a sweet game download bonus!

Getting your game code is as easy as registering your shiney new graphics card via the Asus Redemption Website, following the prompts and completing small steps along the way :)

As usual the hardest part will be which game to choose so let's take a quick look at the games!

First up, Watch Dogs…

You play as Aiden Pearce, a brilliant hacker and former thug, whose criminal past led to a violent family tragedy. Now on the hunt for those who hurt your family, you'll be able to monitor and hack all who surround you by manipulating everything connected to the city’s network.

You spotted the train in Metro, noticed the street sign in Fallout… You identified it was not Carl stealing that car in GTA and that James Heller from Prototype 2 was flying, not Delsin Rowe…

Our winner was not fooled by Paul Phoenix looking a bit like Ken in Street Fighter X Tekken and noticed that two policeman from L.A Noire::http://www.mightyape.co.nz/…ion/19261680 were headed into Eagleson's Gun St­ore…

She has identifed carefully, linked correctly and now… WON AWESOMELY!

Wow, that's some impressive RAM!

Inside our Watch Dogs Gorilla Rig is the aptly named Tactical Tracer RAM and it's got some pretty awesome tricks up it's sleeve!

In addition to the LED light controls, this tool also lets you enjoy real-time temperature monitoring, so you can keep tabs on your high-performance memory. The Crucial Ballistix M.O.D. utility allows you to view uptime, voltages, and set alarms for temperatures, making it one of the most customisable, responsive modules you’ll find.

We used Red/Green in our build but they also come in a blue – check out the video below to see some of the different colours and settings :)

All Gorilla Rigs have Final Fantasy Benchmark results you can check out – this is a free benchmark you can download and try on your rig at home and it's a great way to compare performance :)

For these recordings we use the awesome Elgato Game Capture HD and in this FF benchmark Aiden's Ape pushed out an easy 11000 with the settings on maximum, 1080p and fullscreen – with this powerful build we even had it looped back into the rig recording as it ran the benchmark :)

Elgato is more than just a great capture device though, it includes some easy to use editing software that works with both PC and Mac and with it you can rewind back to the awesome moment you had 30 minutes ago and just record that bit… leaving out the 15 times I got killed by sneaky creepers.
