Another AMD FRIDAY!! A Final Final offer thanks to ASUS!!

Ghengis · 16 Sep 2013 at 16:44

.... I went for the Asus - although bulkier (3 slots...!) their cooler is really quiet/effective on my nVidia cards. I'm sure the MSI is also fine - but of the 5 variants of Twin Frozr I have had all have had a single fan failure leading to RMA. Perhaps I've just been unlucky......

Has the Matrix stock sold out now Andrew?

On the homepage it says 'pre-order' underneath the pic but the product page itself shows 4 in stock.

Cheers.

There is 4 left, but be quick.

Were expecting 1000pc to arrive Friday/Monday but we've sold just shy of 100pc today, so expect them not to last long.

As the new 7970 equivalent product coming will be a similar price to this and not quite as good as a 7970 Matrix Platinum, so this is a good buy.

That company keeps copying the deals on ocuk but doesn't have stock - and have been known to cancel orders placed once ocuk's deals ends and shove the prices back up

Bit of competition only benefits the consumer and keeps everyone on their toes.
Does the matrix qualify for the gold reward and / or the amd reloaded?????

11.2 inches according to the spec for the Matrix (Platinum is the same, just clocked higher) on Asus' website.

Dimensions: 11.2 " x 5.5 " x 2.5 " Inch

BeeP · 18 Sep 2013 at 12:17

Ouch, roughly 285mm long then.........Maybe I could get away with a 240mm rad & be able to fit this in lol.

Such a good price
