**B-GRADE: HOT DEALS TO BE HAD!!**

Just put my Palit GTX 670 in tonight which I got from the B-Grade section a few days ago for £230.

Looks brand new, with everything in the box.

Going well so far but will test it out properly before getting too excited ;)
 
There's 3 month's warranty with OCUK and the remainder of the manufacturer warranty. Does anyone know that when the manufacturer don't accept RMA straight from the customer (like sapphire) are OCUK happy to liaise for duration of the manufacturer warranty with this B-Grade stuff?

I didn't want the 7870. It was only £50 off, where the 660ti OC was £100 off original price. That's what made it a sweet deal:D Much happier with the GTX 660ti tbh.

You got the better deal, and I stand by what I said earlier. Stock speeds the 660ti is up with the 7950 and faster than the 7870.

£150 was an AMAZING price, shame im skint :(

On old drivers back in the day it was, not any more. The 7950 is up there with the 670 not the 660Ti.

Agreed that it is still a good price for the 660Ti it just doesn't offer 7950 performance.

The OC version might which I got:)

Nah. It's miles slower - a small factory OC won't make much diff.

It's not like the 7950 can't be given a small overclock as well to match the factory overclock on that card. Alternatively, you could compare against the 7950 Boost Edition which is matching the 670 at stock clocks (roughly) and is marginally faster when both are overclocked.

Without any AA applied the two cards are fairly close but the 192 bit bus chokes performance when MSAA is applied.

As I said though, doesn't detract from the fact £150 is a tidy price for a 660Ti. I was just correcting the 7950 point. :)
