Cheap 480, Should I Buy?

Do you think they wouldn't take the card apart to inspect it? Always been a bit wary of taking cards apart.

I personally think getting a GTX 570 is better. But I wanna know where are the £250 GTX 570's. They aren't anywhere. The MSI GTX 480 on sale today is cheaper than any GTX 570 (That I've come across).

Can you imagine how long it would take each time an RMA comes in? I doubt it. Assuming you use decent tools, are careful etc, so they have no reason to expect that you've taken it apart then why would they?

I'll give you mine for 210 and it has the backplate

You can get them for £249, you just have to know where to look and wait till they're in stock. No point though when 6950s launch is so close.

Well it doesn't make much Difference to me TBH because I already bought my GTX 570. I was just curious. The only place I seen them for anywhere close to that was lambda-tek and all of their prices are Ex VAT so they are not much cheaper than OcUK.
