1GB version for £200 inc and I might be tempted .....

Cards featuring 1GB of GDDR5 Ram are probably gonna be really pricey I would have thought?

Going to order one of the £199 ones if they come in stock Fri

Hmmm anyone know if the Corsair PSU's feature four 6-Pin PCI-E plugs for CrossFire HD4870?

Seems RRP is £180 (Just as I knew it would be), just wait till the stock situation improves, and you won't have to suffer the terrible price gouging. Within a month you'll be able to buy a 1GB card for less than the current inflated 512MB prices.

HX620 or HX520 dont, iirc only 2 x 6pin & 1 x 8pin, no idea about the rest.

I'll wait until the 4870 is £150 which is inevitable after the 8800gt £197 to £123 in a few months fiasco I give it 3 months especially if nvidia makes the 9800gtx cheaper.

To those waiting:

Yup - you'll be able to laugh in 3-4 months time when the price drops.
Of course all of those that did purchase will be able to laugh as they will have been using their new cards for the past 3-4 months.

Wait long enough and anything computer related will come down in price.
In 3-4 months time why buy a 4870 - there will be something new about to be released.

Unless ATI drop the price, it wont go below ~£175-£180.

HI there

Half our HIS stock has sold, at this rate we shall sell out tomorrow. :eek:

Put it this way based on sales volume, ATI are kicking NVIDIA's ass.....

LoadsaMoney · 25 Jun 2008 at 15:27

Waste of time waiting, that performance for only £199, id be buying now. :cool:

Azza · 25 Jun 2008 at 15:27

Based on anything, ATI is kicking Nvidia's ass.

gurusan · 25 Jun 2008 at 15:28

glad to hear that you are selling them out, and also even more glad because this should mean AMD/ATI will make some nice profit on the RV770

Hi there

Spoken with forwarders this afternoon and we've have just paid an additional £600 to get them here with us on Friday so with any luck that should mean they will. However things are never 100% guaranteed with couriers.
