Anyone wanting a card this week, my advise is to order the Sapphire MBA Reference cards listed above in this forum post, we have over 1000 of these IN STOCK and will be shipping them out today/tomorrow.
Again custom cards are tiny tiny numbers, very expensive. Better supply and improved pricing shall be January/February time, so set your expectations for a potential 4-12 week wait if ordering a custom card please.

Best of luck and best wishes for Christmas from myself and the team at OcUK!!

Cards shall be available 2pm onwards, OcUK probably has the most the stock in Northern Europe on Sapphire MBA reference cards, so order in confidence.


















UPDATE:

The 50pc Powercolor 7900 XTX MBA are at customs in Netherlands, ETA to us is next Wednesday - THIS WILL CLEAR ALL BACK ORDERS! Deliveries will be just before or after Christmas depending on how DPD courier network copes.

The 25pc Sapphire 7900 XTX MBA are also due with us next week sometime, coming from Far East, again those first 25 will be delivered to customers just before or just after Christmas.

CUSTOM 7900 XTX cards - Still scheduled for end of January and into February deliveries, that is stuff like TUF, Pulse, Nitro, Devil etc. If you don't wish to wait, REQUEST A REFUND!


Sapphire are still working on a solution with AMD for the remainder of their back orders and we should get an update middle of next week.

NO MORE QUEUE POSITION REQUEST PLEASE!

Have a good weekend.

Sigh..£1050

You just couldn't resist your old habits and price gouging the XTX, could you...

If the XT can come in at a $1 to £1 exchange rate price, there is absolutely no excuses for the XTX not doing the same, other than pure greed on your part.

Were making 5% margin, how is that price gouging? Our cost is $986 excluding shipping, I am sorry but I am not doing all this work, having and entire company working their backsides off to make no money on a brand new product.

At the MSRP it is to put it bluntly what they cost us or even a slight loss, something I am unwilling to do. Were making like 4% on the XT but have done it to try and help customers out, once we pay our rent, wages and other associated company cost were pretty much making nothing on the XT as well.

It is not gouging!

 

[Gibbo]

You are charging more than the MSRP.

That is the very definition of gouging. The amount of the gouge is neither here nor there.

Anyway, people can choose to pay it or not, but they should be at least aware of the situation.

I don't see single digit profit margins as gouging. I'd like to hit the MSRP, which we achieved on the XT but on the XTX it is just not viable.

 

[Gibbo]

Given the way in which you ( & other E-tailers) have been positively 'filling your boots' with GPU sales and profit margins for the last 2yrs, excuse me if I have little sympathy for you guys in the new market reality...

If you think margins are so huge, you are mistaken, at the end of the day it tends to balance out, when margins are typically so slim, or even negative, then losses companies make on say b-grade products, then of course when opportunities arise to make additional margin, then companies will of course do so otherwise the actual profit made would probably just make it not so worthwhile selling GPUs any more. End of the day you have decent margin opportunities, slim margin times and negative margin times, it balances out. Brand new product, were not going to make a loss if we can help it.

I am sure in coming months prices will improve further.

Welcome scalpers

Anyone trying to scalp these is a very very very brave person, I see no profit for scalpers on these products and we have huge stocks and I'd hope we can keep this product in stock on a continual basis and at £899 so the scalpers won't have any opportunity.

 

[Gibbo]

if this is all true then why is the MSRP achievable for the XT ?

We were given $50 on each card for launch, it has more an impact on the XT. Also what has helped our XT's got booked in at 1.23 rate whereas the XTX got booked at 1.21, with margins so thin these little things make the difference in what is achievable and what is not.
Then factor in the XT weigh a little less, so cost us less to get shipped into us as well shipping cost wise. I also made the decision to make less than 5% on the XT, basically putting £20 support in myself per card. I cannot afford to put £50 in on the XTX to hit £999, just not achievable unless I say did 100pc at £999 and then the rest at £1099, but I'd rather we fix a price at £1049 so were not them pushing the price up £100 at a later period.

 

[Gibbo]

There has been some very shady practices by etailers over the past 2 years in gpu sales but this seems like a fair day 1 price by OCUK.

I did not expect the level of stock that Gibbo is saying OCUK have, it is just not like AMD to have an actual physical launch and not a paper launch.

The launch on MBA is very physical and our focus is Sapphire.

 

[Gibbo]

I'm about to pull the trigger on the XTX when the buttons are up, I'm just scared the reference board will have coil whine and waiting on the AIB dudes for way more expensive cards doesn't sound ideal at these prices.

Upgrading from a 5 year old Vega 64 so lots of gains no matter which card I go with, I was thinking 4080 but it's just too much and I don't think RT is worth it yet.

Just made the switch to AM5 too so I think the XTX will be better for my platform I reckon. HMM what do.

Hi there

Regarding coil whine, any cards that exhibit this we will replace, but ensure it is also not your PSU whining! Also if anyone experiences coil whine on any card, always remember that running a card for 24-48hrs in a well cooled case or room generally solves it as the capacitors can be noisy during the bedding in phase on some cards. If after 48hrs of use the card is still whining and it is confirmed as not the PSU, we would replace it.

 

[Gibbo]

I wish i could have pre ordered.

How much stock of the XTX Pulse do you have?

None. You will be able to pre-order it.
MBA Sapphire cards 500+ on each.

 

[Gibbo]

You've pulled me out of the woodwork, Gibbo

Will I be able to order, despite being located in Portugal?

I am visiting my folks in Jan, and pricing could be more favourable from OCUK. So contemplating ordering and having it sent to my folks, or will the website tell me where to go due to my location?

I am not sure mate, try adding a 6900 XT to your basket and pick your shipping destination as I've not imposed any shipping lock downs on these cards as we have so many, of course only the Sapphire MBA cards are in stock in volume.
If you have any issues, drop another post later but all should be OK.

[Gibbo]

Cheers! Globaldata I know and I bought my case from them I'll take a look. I was more thinking from a pre-order perspective you know

2pm the F5 button is gonna be SMASHED xD

Please not too much smashing.

 

[Gibbo]

only postive I can take from this is at least wont be bought to scalp lol

That is our plan, if we can keep MBA in stock and maintain pricing, which is our plan, there will be zero ability to scalp.
If anyone see the cards been scalped just comment with a link to buy from our website with full warranty from genuine reseller with stock available on next day delivery.

 

[Gibbo]

Might be good for business tho.. How are keyboard sales doing these days?

After today a lot of people need new F5 keys?

 

[Gibbo]

Looks great on black though

Plus its a red team day.

But changed to yellow!

 

[Gibbo]

OCUK seem to be the only UK retailer selling these cards? Which is fine as i'll buy from here anyway. Just weird that no one else seems to have them listed yet.

I have always taken a very none biased approach, that is why on OcUK you can buy Intel, AMD and NVIDIA GPU's, I will offer them all fairly and equally irrelevant of who has what market share!

t-28min to go!

My hand may slip and we may go live a few minutes early.

 

[Gibbo]

Already addressing idle power issues. Apparently AMD devs are working over the holiday to get over the performance issues they were having in the launch.

AMD tend to be very good at this, though in fairness these issues should not be present AMD drivers are vastly improved on the past and I am quite excited about where the 7900 cards will perform in a few months time.

 

[Gibbo]

It's 13:46 and no button yet

Buy buttons added to the Sapphire MBA cards, just waiting for website to upload.
Shall be adding buy buttons to the rest in a few minutes.

 

[Gibbo]

The sensible thing would have been for AMD to delay the launch a month. Allow the driver teams time to fix all the launch bugs, power draw etc. The reviews would have been much better, customers would have IMO been happier.

Brave folks effectively paying to be a beta tester for AMD - it shouldn't be this way.

No doubt some genius at AMD insisted these are available before Christmas, no matter if it damages AMD's long term reputation/mindshare.

And miss Christmas!!!!

In fairness for me half the fun is getting to play and tweak new hardware, finding issues and then fixing them and getting big performance boost with driver updates, starts to make the purchase feel less guilty.

 

[Gibbo]

Sapphire is only 2 yeay warranty, used to be 3. And powercolor is 1.......

I argued this with Powercolor but they refused to offer more than one, as such I cancelled all remaining back orders. Their own built cards are 3yr warranty on Devil and Hellhound, Sapphire own built is 3yr warranty too, so Pulse and Nitro.

 

[Gibbo]

One correction - there is NO Harribo anymore! I never got it with 4090 and neither did other people that posted about it. Harribo is gone

I think due to how busy warehouse is they just focus on getting cards out, better you get the card a day earlier then potentially a day later with Haribo.
