I'm currently playing BF3 on a 512mb 8800GT, may be on lowest settings but it's not even that bad and runs silky smooth, running everything with bells hanging off it is rather overrated.
BF still looks decent at lowest!

Excellent price. Awesome bang for buck!

How?!?!
With my 4850 512MB @1080, it just isn't silky smooth, usually I can play crysis at like 30FPS and find it smooth enough but this game just so stuttery and I have everything turned of, on low. On some maps it can be fine like canals, bazaar but on other maps like seine, metro (outside parts), caspian, not to mention B2k maps it drops to below 30FPS.
Although I don't remember it being as bad as this when the game first came out, so perhaps my card is just on its way out or/and drivers

Probably drivers id say, but yeah runs smooth on the auto settings which is basically all low, i think it has 2xaa aswell, practically ultra settings.
somehow still a nice looking game though.
Really would love to get one of these and I was 80% sure that I would be, but having to pay essentially £10 for delivery puts it out of my budget range for me 
If could have sold the games for £40 in total, no problems, but looking at the members market, I am likely to only get £20-25, £30 is pushing it and plus no guarantee that 2 of them will sell either (as the last 1 or 2 that have been put up, haven't even sold for £3-5!)
Come on, bring back free delivery to NI through RM!!!!!

Bargain, best bang for buck?
Does it work multiple times or only the once and is it only free for UK mainland or does the code work for NI customers too?

For more money than a 7950 with less vram? Brilliant idea.
