Was gonna do a test flash but can't find a bios. I don't mind buying the card, then use that bios tho

Superb value.

You need to use a BIOS from the same make of card as you have now.

So if you have a Sapphire 7950 Dual-X, you need a 280 Dual-X BIOS for example.

Another £10 and you'll be at the same price as the 280X VTX3D available elsewhere(with free delivery).

Knock a score off and i might be tempted.

We need mid-range Maxwell to freshen up the market a bit.

Problem with that is if we get another Maxwell on 28nm, all we going to get is another card that's waving low power consumption, but still worse bang for bucks than the other cards at similar current price points much like the 750/750Ti. They need to offer a card with at least around GTX670 level performance at sub £200, or it's pointless regardless how low power consuming it is. But with the GTX760 being at £200+, I can't see that happening.

This.Is.Completely.True

Banging on about power consumption is irrelevant for gamers on lower end cards. It came up on a recent thread when comparing the 270x and the 750ti, the 'savings' in power consumption is not even worth thinking about when talking about the power difference of a single light bulb under load. The appeal for miners is there but what i want to see is gaming cards, not mining cards!

Nice, I also see the VTX3D 280X is also on pre-order for £20 more so I have ordered another one of them to keep my current one company
