***** AMD RX 7900 SERIES AVAILABLE & IN STOCK TODAY FROM 2PM ****(BACK ORDER UPDATES WITHIN THIS THREAD)*

Consumer law is 6 years from delivery in England and Wales. The graphics card doesn’t have to last that long but if it fails then you would have to prove there was an issue with it. Modifying the card for example could make this harder. As they will still provide updated graphics card drivers for the 6 year old card it does also suggest they intend the card to last that length of time.

I know this link is for Apple but it lays it out far more simply than most websites. https://www.apple.com/uk/legal/statutory-warranty/uk/
 
Noticed people are quite happy to buy a card with a 1yr warranty, it's out of stock and up for pre-order. Either the ill-informed has purchased or they think it's a bargain at £869.99. Must be of their rocker!
 
I’ve got the option to pre order and pay for the Sapphire 7900xtx. That was after I attempted to buy one on release date so it’s in my basket. Is that some sort of glitch as I see they are not available to preorder on the site.

Thanks.

There is no Sapphire XTX MBA any more and won’t be any cards for new orders.

XTX is custom cards only, no idea how you can order one but don’t as you won’t get it.

Not gonna lie i'm actually really surprised Apple are so forthcoming with that information.
 
no problem @Gibbo the main thing for me is just knowing it's coming. Thanks a lot!
Thanks @Gibbo and team at OcUK. This arrived yesterday! so quite fast once DHL picked it up. I was a bit too preoccupied to post yesterday however :D. I've stress tested the card and messed with tunings etc.. and v.happy with everything. No Junction temp problems that some have reported against reference cards.

My friend created this website to track all the goings on so I would stop talking about it to others in our group :cry: It got a nice update yesterday

And of course some pics

Tidy build. :)

Also, glad to hear you've had no issues, my MBA card was faultless too.

Looks awesome. I have that case on order from OCUK. Currently it is preorder but seeing your setup with that case makes me want it more!

Is that the meshify C 2? Looking good

Sapphire XTX MBA End of Life already? Was toying with getting one in the new year
 
Seems there has been a switch to ‘bait and switch’, sharp practices since frank has moved over to AMD. I’m surprised he wasn’t on twitter announcing he has got his on launch day again.

The Noctua and Meshify 2C appreciation club.
2C is best case I have had to date, highly recommend it.

hotspot getting that high sounds like bad mount on card, rma it
I decided to repaste my MBA 6950 XT, bugging me that the delta between the GPU temp and hot spot temp is so high.

It is now running with a max delta of 19C. Annoying that some of these cards are not tested for bad mounting.

Braver person than me, Doesn't that mean you lose warranty? Or did the manufacturer agree to let you take the card apart?
