Ooh a DVD with 4 games on comes with the Sapphire, you get to play each game for an hour then you can use the two you want!

Cheers Gibbo, got my card in less than 24 hours! Top Notch!

Right, just for anyone thats interested i got the Sapphire XT thismorning. Inside along with a bunch of cables (4 pin molex to 6 pin power supply and a component out cable etc) were PowerDVD6, the driver disc, PowerDirector 4 and a games disc. The disc has 4 demos on it which you can install, then buy one of them using the supplied code. Nice idea i thought.

Games are Prince of Persia: Warrior Within,Tony Hawk's Underground 2, Richard Burns Rally and Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30

only thing really left to get now is a soundcard and another harddrive.

i have one raptor. 74gig but... i want one for games and one to boot and run my programs with. so i think i get another next week. when i get payed. :)

but i cant wait. never had a pc i can run on max really.
 
Yeah you'll do it no probs, take your time as said, its suprisingly easy, my first build took me a couple of hrs, but now i can knock em together in about 15 mins lol, its only installing windows and all the gubbins that takes the time. :)

You'll certainly be able to run everything maxed on there, good luck with the build, hope all your parts arrive a ok so you can get it together.:)

Hello Xtreme Legend :D

Did the BFG's 7800 GTX 512MB arrived yet??

I order one from you, but if takes much time I may change for a XFX ..

I will stay on Nvidia for now, the new X1900's series did not impressed me to much to be honest..

Hello m8 !!

We have approx 24 XFX 512MB 7800 GTX standard clock speeds left.

NVIDIA shipped stock to BFG yesterday I believe, so hopefully BFG will be shipping to us before the weekend and they will hopefully arrive middle of next week, but they are definetely coming m8. We have 200 coming to us and out of that 200 approx 70ish are sold so you will get yours at the latest end of next week and we'll have plenty spare in case you want a few more. ;)

Happy overclocking m8!! :D

Yeah I mean the X1900XT is faster and £80+ cheaper than the 512mb GTX. Not impressive at all really.

Ahem. :D

Hi m8

If your asking will an X1900 graphics card work in your current motherboard then the answer is YES! :)
 
gibbo, do you know if the bfg 7800 512's come with Call of duty 2? since the bfg web site says it does and since all the 7800's are the same price, might as well get the bfg if it has a free game with it.

Unkown with us been in the UK, so hence we don't want to say you get something when there is a chance they may not ship the games with them.

BFG is the quickest 512MB 7800 GTX card there is. :D

Trust me, Pedro Rocha does know what he is saying ;)

Im sure that 7800 GTX 512MB aint gunner be at stock for much of its life and going to be tortured till it dies. If he has one already then, 2x 7800 GTX 512MB's and Pedro's FX power, may just start setting some new WR's :D

The price of the GTX 512 has actually INCREASED in the last week or two at OCUK. :confused:

Before the release of 1900, when speculation over was rife and no stock on the Nvidia, the GTX 512's were retailling on OCUK for just under £480 inc. VAT - now it's gone up to £530 inc VAT!!!

Gibbo, can you explain? is this normal practice i.e. supply & demand?

Well OcUK was approx £50 cheaper than elsewhere tempting people to pre-order with us and those who did have now gotten a better deal. Now product is back in stock or soon to arrive and with NVIDIA refusing to drop prices then OcUK pricing is back up to similar prices to what other people are selling at. OcUK only really stocks the XFX and BFG models because when they do ship us quantity its a decent amount plus XFX and BFG have better warranties and go that bit further in providing the customer with a better product and service. :)
