Sorry guys this is the new pricing on the parts. It can't be helped I am afraid. I can not answer any further questions on the 58** if you have any queries please ask in the customer support forum.

MrPink, the situation isn't great but it appears stock is coming through in low numbers - It might be worth having a scan of the last few pages of the following thread;

GT300 will probably arrive quicker:).

Seriously, OcUK seem to be receiving random batches and numbers of cards. Dependent on the card you have ordered (and your position in the queue for that particular card), it may take days, weeks, or even months to arrive. I think ATI have just bumped the prices up to clear the backlogs.

Fatboy said last Friday they had 47 back orders as they'd done well swopping people around as the cards came in.

I think you may be way off.

I doubt that, as swapping over would have meant being charged the extra £40-£50, as they have now gone up in price.

Btw only 47 back orders, rofl, who they trying to kid, no way is it that low, can sell more than that in a minute.
