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

[Gibbo]

Took about 7 mins. Are you able to say how many you had?

We had quite a lot of Reaper and Hellhound but we have the most on Asrock at 300 cards.

Thank will try for that (just saw it's white) . Not paying 720 for the tachi when my pre order for the 5070ti is 770. I have it needs to be 100 less for the amd

I've managed to grab a pre-order for the Nitro+ 9070XT at £681 but with a few weeks delivery time. Bets on a brick showing up?

If it's from the forest a good chance

Buuuuut, You're saying there is a chance a GPU will be there? Good odds to me.

OK I shall get this honoured for you, just give us a day or two to sort this for you please, but you have my word you will get one at the price you paid.

hi @Gibbo,

this has been sorted now. I know how busy you must be at the moment - just a quick reply to send my thanks

Depends whether from that store directly or a third party?

 

[sunn]

Just occurred to me, wasnt their meant to be Acer models, or no UK distros? or just for Acer PCs?

 

[fastboy]

so with the 5070 under £600 is the £670 9070xt still a better choice?

It was direct.

Definitely even though it's overpriced

It depends if you think the VRAM is an issue. I personally think it is as the games that you would buy the Nvidia card for (those with path-tracing, mostly) need more VRAM and will going forwards. I wouldn't but either at those prices though. I cancelled my MSRP Reaper last week and bought a £240 3070 to tide me over.

CEX offering only 500ish cash for trade in for the 9070 XT!

I am going to hold out for one of the Sapphire cards whenever they land, Tachi looks a little tacky to me.

 

[fatmac]

@Gibbo please give us the good news are the Nitro + cards loaded onto the truck XD

Likewise. Waiting for some more feedback on the Nitro+ with regard to the connector. Interesting that it’s only jumped to £719.

Why are people so horny for the gigabyte?

Link.

Another factor for going Gigabyte UK CS, 3 yrs warranty. Last time I bought Gigabyte GPU, the OCUK rep said can go WC and not void warranty, as long as no physical damage to card, if that is still the case I don't know.

He's just sent a drone to the airport to check! Oh ****! Airport is closed now!
