Hi All

I am thinking of buying the card that is on the daily specials
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-099-HS

I know its a great deal but I haven't heard of the make, I am probably being stupid but would rather pay more for a company with better support and easier to deal with if say there are problems and you need to return under warranty.

Also at £99 there is no point even comparing to the GTX 960 or R9 280 because of the great value this deal offers.

Thanks

I think I may get one for my media PC, bit of an overkill but when has that stopped people, just hope it will fit in my case :)

Make it more than 15 and I'll mention it on the AMD social channels today Gibbo. ;)

Only 11 left now.

I found 20 in our warehouse, being collecting dust for 12 months, DON'T ASK!

Hence I am just dumping them, won't be buying any more, sorry buddy. You should still post it anyway, were your no.1 UK partner. :)

Much faster than the 7850, these are more like 7970 GHz editions as a rough performance approximation. I think the 265 is a 7850 or thereabouts but could be getting mixed up.

Edit: They're not rebadged 7970 GHz's though to be clear, they're all new tech.
