AMD To Launch RV770 On June 18th

carrot1401 · 19 Jun 2008 at 21:40

Is it worth putting my Gecube 3870 pre-overclocked (same price as a standard 1 and it sells) on the bay now, then dive into a 4850/4870 after my holiday??

Only downside is that my spare is an x300 :rolleyes:

Good luck getting back to June 7th for your flight without a time machine! Unless you've got one? :eek:

Should be tomorrow

No seems OcUK have been really slow off the bat and have missed out on a days trading unless they never had any to start with. Maybe that TT review showing bad P45 performance is why Giga havn't got many boards out yet it is a problem with their board not the gfx card. Best to hope someone gives it a twirl on a asus P5Q and see if same thing happens.

I think if the nda not lifted in the uk yet it is best ocuk don't **** amd/ati off

rojones · 19 Jun 2008 at 22:32

Lets be honest, with the few stores already shopping these cards i don't see why the big guns just don't start selling them, end of the day if ATI and their Partners got peeved they could always argue that they didn't want to miss out on trade which is true.

I hope they have some in stock tomorrow otherwise my hard earned cash may be going somewhere else at this rate, want to see a few different prices before I go ahead.

Visiontek 4850 + 4870.

Seen these of these for £138.59 inc vat so I think our predictions were right. Sapphire as well

i take they not going with custom hook then

Strife212 · 19 Jun 2008 at 22:43

Yeah I love the look of the 4870

Not liking the 4850 though personally, I actually prefer dual slotters

C64 · 19 Jun 2008 at 22:44

Wish I had the spare cash to get one looks like I'm going to miss the boat will probably have to keep my 8800gt forever now and use it as an in between upgrade backup card.Not worth me selling it now would be lucky to get £60 for it now.
