at that price i'll have three please, why not make it 6 that way i can get 2 systems running them
I thought prices have been released.
$349 and $499 MSRP.
That's a pretty big gap between the 2 and so definitely more than the £90 the OP suggests.
My guess is supply will be very tight and retailers won't be making the mistake of letting initial stock go for close to the MSRP as they did with HD 58xx cards (went for £200 and £300 respectively which was the exchange rate conversion + VAT roughly).
£277 and £396 are the simple exchange rate conversion with 17.5% VAT for $349 and $499 atm.
Therefore, I think the actual prices on release will be £350-380 and £500. Then as everyone realises that performance isn't what its cracked upto be, retail prices fall within weeks as supply increases, towards the above conversion prices. Settling perhaps 20% above AMD prices.

Seems about right, wouldn't surprise me if retailers slap on more price for the 480 and up it to around £420 though

Doesnt matter on the price cos the performance wont justify the cost.
Knowing OCUK about £50 above RRP the first month or two.
