** AMD R290X BF4 EDITION - WE ARE NOW TAKING PRE-ORDERS / DEPOSITS!! **

Hi there

As no surprise we have our allocation of R290X BF4 Edition in stock, the bad news is so far we've only received half our allocation from AMD, the following additional half will arrive hopefully next week, of course some competitors have not taken pre-orders and will have stock on the shelf and we can understand if your of the latter half you may wish to cancel and order elsewhere, but it's the same situation for all and AMD have not yet finished delivering all the BF4 allocation and board partners can take their time, some longer than others. Some competitors still don't even have their shipment so it is quite unknown but when NDA lifts it will be clearer.

So to make it fair, the first 150 customers who placed a deposit will be contacted within the next 48hrs and it shall be very early uk time. Were doing this to give those who placed pre-order deposits first opportunity, only fair to do it on a first come first serve basis.

The email will contain clear instructions and you should reply as quick as you can, because a few hours later, we shall contact the next 150 customers if not all of the first 150 get in touch or decide to buy a card.

So in short be monitoring your email over next 48hrs from OcUK, keep an eye on your junk folder just in case and be sure to get back in touch.

We shall have a dedicated email address for you to reply to and it shall be done by email for speeding up process and handled by 5UB himself, the regular sales team won't be sorting this so be sure to have email access over the next 48hrs, smartphone, tablet, laptop or PC etc.

A new thread containing this shall be made tomorrow, keep an eye out for that email over next 48hrs and the hint is it will come early morning, the next 150 customers will get their email late morning or early afternoon again within 48hrs from now.

Hope makes sense. The email shall contain price info, a link to our review and some limited info on the R290 and regular R290X availability.
 
if so few units be interesting to see how the split of brands to people goes - I imagine some brands will be far more favoured than others

be interesting to see
 
Seems like it,

Unfortunately it seems stock is an issue, even for those that pre-ordered.

Looks like i'll be using a competitor which i really didn't want to do.

Just hope they have stock..
 
I've pre ordered but I'm working 12 hour shifts the next 2 days. 6 till 6. I haven't got a smart phone or internet acess at work. Couldn't we have more time to reply?or send the email at 5 am?

It shall be sent very early like that kind of time. ;)
 
There's going to be some very tired OCUK forum folk due to checking their emails lol. Hopefully by that time the NDA will be removed so people know exactly what their buying. Gibbo do you know if the NDA for the 290 is the same time as the 290x or is that info under NDA?
 
ive got the upgrade itch now :D
as i dont watercool though i'd not want to take one of these reference fan designs, fingers crossed HIS do a voltage unlocked IceQ rear exausting version before Xmas :D
 

In short we can deliver all pre-orders this month as long as second 150 arrive next week, some are scheduled this week, but they are sold out.

Pre-ordering was the way on this one, looks like there won't be any more BF4 versions either or very limited.

In short OcUK did well, 8000 world wide, 300 to OcUK and approx 200 across rest of UK, rare as hens teeth. :D
