AMD Black Friday from Sapphire GO GO GO !!!

Is this the standard edition for the Nitro Vega 64? with 2-8 Pin connections and not 3-8 pin connections?

I know the limited edition Nitro+ is a 3-8 pin connection. I prefer the stand edition so any help would be great!

And would 750 PSU 80+ gold good enough to run the Nitro? :) thanks in advance! (planning to undervolt the Vega as well)

Essentially it would just be like upgrading from the 1070 to 1080, so it wouldn't be a huge upgrade (though from driver performance side of things, AMD will most likely offer much longer performance optimisation for new games).

If you already own a 1070, then may be you should just hold on to it and save you money for upgrading when next gen 7nm GPU cards are out possibly late 2019. If you own a Freesync monitor, or a 4K TV that support Freesync, then that's a difference story.

Pretty sure it is the standard edition with two 8-pins, with even the picture on the product page showing the card with two 8 pins (otherwise they would have stated it as the limited edition).

Your PSU should be more than capable (I am running mine overclocked with a old Corsair TX650W at the moment), though for Vega it is recommend to use 8pins from two separate cables (rather than two 8pins from the same cable).

Thanks! Yeah I know I saw the pictures just wasn't sure since they are the generic ones just wanted to be safe as I don't care for the limited edition.

I see the 2700X 2600 and 1700 have been reduced in price this afternoon. Any chance of a deal on the 2600X @Gibbo ? Only thing i'm waiting on a deal on and i'll be placing my order for mobo, ram, ssd and CPU :D

2600X has no planned promotion, I've knocked a fiver off it if that helps. Maybe consider 1600X or 1700 instead, both cheaper.

I may need a eye test I could not see a bios switch on my card, but I am old.;)

Where can you find the bios switch?

Which position is the default setting?
 
anyone else order the v64 on Friday and not have it ship? sent a webnote and got a reply saying that I'd need to wait till December since the website's stock couldn't be updated fast enough even though from this thread it seems like stock only ran out yesterday? :( I'm from Canada if that matters.

Maybe because its an international order, but we have a small amount put to one side, so we shall allocate to outstanding orders, we oversold by around 15 units, which shall ship out this week all been well. :)
