Sorry to ask for the 100th time but I've just bought a G1 970 from Ocuk recently, are you offering refunds on these? What's the criteria? But concerned by what I've been reading. Thanks :)

You can return if your unhappy with it, it is still the best bang for buck performance card on the market though, bear in mind the problem is blown out of proportion, a lot of baiting and trolling happening making things seem far worse than they are.

The fact is 970 still offers the best package at sub £300 as a gaming graphics card.

Thanks, earlier in the thread you mention that if the rma is via ocuk that there may be other options to consider, is there any other options available?
 
So in trying to catch up with all of all this, we 970 owners buy a 4GB card, it isn't really 4GB. Nvidia back track on fixing it or at least helping the issues related to this and we can return them. This leaves our options of buying a 980 or going to AMD? I mean its great we can return them but then to fork out more money for another card seems a bit of a con which leaves me with swapping to AMD

Thanks for the speedy response. I may well return it and stump up the extra for a 980 tbh. I will start the RMA process off tomorrow when I'm off work. Which 980 to go for? :)
