exchange rates if it is anything like what gibbo mentioned. They have the stock delivered but not paid for, just invoiced.

Although the pound is nearly back to 1.4 dollar to the pound.

He's using latest GPU-Z that has Polaris support.

And the designer of GPU-Z reviews GPUs, he will have a 480.

Last update was June 20th. While it may support Polaris the database isn't up to date.

Same way it supported Maxwell but misreported the 970.

I have no idea what's going on.

Hopefully the custom cards won't be too far behind. Got my fingers crossed, hope it's worth the wait.

well kinda looks obvious really, they give you regular 390-390x perf GPU, then very high quality custom cards with overclocking, like enjoying overclocking and pushing performance, having watercooled, or hybrid GPUs isnt just for enthusiasts grade card but also for mainstream, it's an interesting approach, we will see how it goes, and if the 480 is as good as it seem.

I love the marketting vs launch product disconnect. Average performing card..... just saying.

Hi there

So the prices!


AMD's new launch unfortunately is effected, I have stock, but again it is not paid for and I booked the stock at an original rate of 1.43-1.44 whereas now we have re-adjusted this down to 1.36 but again I am going to sacrifice some OcUK margin to try and hit price points. I shall push AMD for some additional support to see if they can help us hit original target MSRP's I had in mind.

 

[AlamoX]

lol you are happy because the prices will be higher ? at least thats a perfectly objective non bias smile
