Some of these deals are one offs which means when the stock has ran out, the deal is over this applies against the 9800 GX2, 3870 X2 and 8800 GS deals.
 
GTX280 £170 less than launch, great price ;)

Pity it's still £100 more than a 4870 but when you think only very recently people were paying over £300 for branded 8800GTX's that were nearly 18 months old tech then it does then put things in perspective

Come to think of it, wasn't the 3870X2 about this price even after launch ?

Come to think of it, wasn't the 3870X2 about this price even after launch ?

3870X2 was £280 at launch.

The GTX 280 price is much better, at least tempting now.
 
nVidia must be sweating like a green pig right now, great prices Gibbo, given the price of 4870 1GB at £240 now a 280 at £280 just look a whole lot more justifiable! It's still the fastest single card out there.
A price war is heading our way, wee :)
 
someone i know brought one two weeks ago at full price lost 170.00 since then omg bet he feels like smashing the thing up :D reminds me of the ati 1800 to 1900 fiasco.
 
The GTX 280 looks tempting now. Pity I bought a 4870 last week. Who would have though the price drops would be that drastic that quickly though?

Oh well, everything runs great, bar Crysis, which runs just ok.
 
Think I must resist!!! Just wait for a few more weeks and I guarantee prices will drop even further. nVidia have mountains of stock to clear, probaly sold none after 4870's release, they know that if they don't act drastically quick they will completely lose the enthusiast's market. A 280 at 230-240 is definitely possible, even at a loss! That just prove how good the 4870s are.
 
GX2 looks a very good deal considering it soundly beats the GTX280 in most tests. Also the 8800GS is great value for a low/mid end gamer.
