OcUK GUIDE TO ORDERING YOUR AMD 9070 GRAPHICS CARD TODAY AT 14:00

the problem is if there isnt enough stock to saturate the market the scalpers will keep picking these small drops until dry..there needs to be enough stock so that everyone who needs one can get one and the scalpers wont be able to sell them.

but as a manufacturer this is how you drive the price UP

If its any consolation aren't there still thousands of base model XTs left in stock? Just need to wait (tomorrow morning?) for the price to be updated to £629. I know its not MSRP but people should still have a good chance of getting one tomorrow

I hope so, £629.99 is still good value IMO but I fear the bots will still be out in force when you have the OC cards at closer to £700 - £800

I think it's significantly less attractive at £629. And also I refuse to pay over £569 on the principle that that is the price AMD announced and there is ample stock - AMD just screwed the rebates by only offering it on select models and stock.

If it had been on all models I would have even considered something like the Nitro+.

I saw him reply to you a few pages back. He said it wasn't a mistake, MSRP cards ran out so went up in price, but then he said ASROCK offered to do 10 more MSRP cards later.

It’s not even an OC card. No way it makes sense at that price. It’s like an auction. I can see how the fluctuation of price makes sense but not within a few hours of each other

Not interested at that price. Only made financial sense at 600 or under to me. I'm sure there are many like me but not as many as there are willing to pay the silly prices demanded these days. Time for me to take up gardening or something. PC gaming has become laughably absurd.
