BUY NOW!!!


These are brand new sealed product, they come with the Sapphire game vouchers and this price is unbeatable. OcUK is completing smashing up its competitors when it comes to Graphics Card pricing. Remember this card offers equal and superior performance to 7900 GT's but with ATI's superior image quality. This price is limited to what we have left in stock and the offer ends May 14th, but if we sell out before then its tough as new stock cost more to replenish as this is a once of OcUK/Sapphire deal.

SO BUY NOW, Or you will miss out !!!!

hope I dont sense deja-vu here....

Nice price though

Nope these won't cause any issues as they are brand new, we have plenty and now our system are fully working.

These are gonna sell like hot cakes though!

I can imagine they will I just hope that you have a better time with this lot of deals than at the weekend

Shame my bank AKA the GF has denied any further purchases for the forseeable future after me buying 3 gfx cards last week

Cracking price that, get em while the're hot everyone, stonking cards.

Oh dear, i really should have resisted but couldn't at this price! I need to get a new monitor now aswell I've got the pc upgrade bug damnit!

Just gone for one of these aswell, its gonna be my first ATI card...

Can anyone link me to a review on this one coz all the reviews i find are for the 512mb version and websense blocks the rest

oh and can anyone tell me roughly what kinda difference i can expect when i replace my 7800 with this?

EDIT: Gibbo are they really equal or better than 7900's? at stock???

God damn you Gibbo. LOL. You told me to buy one of these for £190 not long ago because the price would be going up £20, not down £20.

But yeah, fantastic card. Everyone buy one, it really rips up games.

Was just thinking the same, although the difference is still £55 + vat for an extra 256mb RAM

Not overclocked it properly yet (only with Catalyst Overdrive), got it to 675/775 utterly stable though.

I didn't bench it with those speeds, the benchmarks in my sig are entirely at stock.

Thats pretty good news then. My 7800 barely reaches 8000 and wont overclock at all well!

Tbh i've always been a bit of an nvidia fanboy so lets hope this is good enough to change my mind

Will riva tuner be my best bet for oc'ing this card?

Does anyone think I should replace my 7800GTX 256MB with this X1800XT? Are there any real gaming performance benefits?

Also would a nforce chipset (on a quad SLi mobo) support me running a ATI crossfire setup?

(sorry if my questions seem dumb, I need to know the answers before the offer runs out lol and no, google is not my friend on both counts )

Ooh I want one and I am very close to ordering one.
I want one for the weekend. However, I just spoke to OCUK and the sales rep told me delivery to sweden could be anything between 7 and 21 days
Regardless of which type of delivery I chose.

bah!

They are indeed. At stock speeds the X1800XTs are at least a fraction quicker than the 7900gt in almost everything. The only advantage of the 7900gt (other than the SLi option which is arguabley better than the crossfire option) is the overclocking headroom, but that requires a hardware mod.

Are these gonna drop any further in price...?

Cheers,

Suman

Hi there

Think our sales got a little confused as international deliveries take upto 7 days, so if you order now there is a good chance you will get it but not guaranteed.

You joking?

They will be going back up, hence why the 512MB is still so much more expensive. Both X1800 XT's will be going up in price once our DEAL stock has sold out which is expected to only last around approx a week.
