I don't think OcUK will replace the card directly if it fails after a few years but I believe they will handle the RMA process for you, so you'd return the card to themselves and they would deal with Zotac.
Still far better than trying to deal with Zotac directly. If I'm wrong I'm sure I'll be corrected, but that's my take on it.
Yeah, having read a few things on the site I believe you're correct.
I went ahead and ordered one last night anyway before the deal expired, and it should be arriving tomorrow! £368.99 for a 1070 was simply irresistible.
Soldato
Nice one! I agree it was an irresistible deal!
I was going to pull the trigger over the weekend myself until I dropped my phone down the bog, had to hold fire in case it needs replacing now
Soldato
Mine arrived a few days ago, absolutely fantastic bit of kit and at that price I couldn't say no.

Card came and installed, can anyone who got one answer me to say if there ports, sli connectors and pci-e connectors had any of the plastic protective plugs on??? mine didn't and all other cards recently did
Nope, installed it today and there were no protective plugs. The card just came in a rather thick antic static bag. The rest (PCI-E connectors etc) were in plastic bags.
P.S. Don't forget to register your card on Zotac's website.
Soldato
Thanks for that, I actually asked the registering question in CS last night too

I've umm'ed and ahh'ed for months over a new card but now I've finally bit the bullet and ordered one of these bad boys! I expect it'll be quite a jump over my amd 7950

Good call!
Were selling about £30-£40 below new buy-in due to have crazy weak the pound has gone this week.
Were holding the price until Wednesday, then these are going up towards £400 until the pound recovers.
Get them whilst they are cheap!
Hey Gibbo, any chance of investigating the ** RAIJINTEK TRITON ** situation as it would be nice for a member of OCUK staff to get involved. - Thanks kindly

How good (or bad) is the cooler on this card in both temps and noise?
Was looking at getting a Palit Gamerock/Jetstream until I read all the negativity about the huge amount of failures.
Also can this card overclock much on the stock cooler?

had mine upto 2150mhz but just leaving it at stock it boosts to 1890mhz and not going over 69C, the fan is audiable but its not offensive.

Ordered, cant wait for it to arrive!

What's the best way of monitoring what the card is doing? I'd like to see what mine is boosting to and its temp etc. One thing I noticed that although yes you can hear the fan on the cooler, its no noisier than my previous card, it isn't an annoying whir (was still able to sleep in the same room as the pc) and it doesn't ramp up anywhere near as much as my old 7950.
Probably because it handles gta v and fallout 4 with ease (only games I've tested so far), whereas, they used to push my 7950. I cant believe how good gta looks while still being silky smooth

The best tool i know of is GPU Z. You can click the number to make it track the maximum/minimum/average or you can just get it to show real time readings. You can also stretch the window and change the refresh rate to make it show the data over a fair long time to give you an idea of how it changes during a gaming session.
