Hi there


Sapphire have given us a great deal, due to 290 Tri-X demand being so high and supply so poor, they said to me, look we can get you many many units if we don't pre-overclock them to save us time, if this is OK we can get you lots and much quicker!

Of course I agreed to this deal and the stock is leaving Hong Kong today, we expect the delivery Friday or Monday, so this price is PRE-ORDER ONLY.

You all know my feelings on the Tri-X cooler, it is one of the best, can work in more or less silence whilst still keeping the card very cool and it can also function as a very powerful cooler too making it ideal in three way crossfire or for mining setups.

Such a great card, perfect for gamers and miners, I have only 500pc and were expecting them to fly out, the price when stock lands will increase by approx £20-£30 so be warned:-



Sapphire Radeon R9 290 Tri-X 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (11227-03-40G) @ £341.99 inc VAT

Thats crazy to be fair, i just bought a Tri-X and they are pre OC'd to a high rate and can go a lot higher with tweaking, and that cooler is just a beast!

Damn wish this had been available sunday i woulda had aload of them
 
Any reason to go for this over the cheaper:
MSI Radeon R9 290 Gaming Edition 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
Also get a years extra warranty with the MSI?

Any chance you could get a similar deal on 280X cards? :)
