And then there was one
come on Gigabyte
come on Gigabyte
Thank you!
I get the impression MSI will give the same level of support to all resellers as well across Europe which I suspect is why they have taken longer, but time will tell, but my only concern is OcUK customers and covering OcUK's cost with dealing with any returns.
But I am very happy that our partners have made the right decisions to support OcUK to the maximum.

presumably not, as this would encourage returns..straight back to OEMs for a refund i imagine...difficult to see what OCUK would get out of selling them B-Grade.
There would have to be so many coil whine guarantees on returned 970 stock, it would be uneconomical to test/guarantee vs getting a refund from OEM..i imagine..
Well as we have support, from all vendors there will be little to no b-grade I am afraid. Any B-grade 970's will be returns/repairs for other reasons.

No doubt Gigabyte will be on board now, they won't want to be the only partner not.

Fantastic stuff! Surely this has been a PR nightmare for Nvidia. Hmm, might have to get a new PSU if i got 2 290x since it seems the HX850 is cutting it very fine with an overclocked i7 4770ik.

Just to reiterate, what a fantastic job being done by Gibbo and the OcUK boys and girls! I'd buy all my tech from you guys, if I didn't live outside the UK.
Just realised this thread has more activity than the official geforce forums 970 thread
Because our forums are the best!
Then please buy from our sister company Caseking, they operate on the same levels of excellent customer service and they made their decisions before we did to take back all brands.

Hi Gibbo -
I got issued a replacement MSI 970GTX today from OcUK (was in the shop at 8.30am) . Would it be possible to drop it back into the shop next week for a refund to be able to purchase another card as a replacement.

Good to hear MSI may support all sellers when it comes to returns/refunds
Went to the other major seller site where i got mine,wanted to see if their forums had a statement or anything regarding the issue,turns out their 'forum' is a dead link,why am i surprised?
