And if they are the correct three cards, you could also be getting BF4 x 3, which could get you between £80-£100 if you sell them on....shaving that off yr final price :)

Aye - very happy about that. I'm pretty sure they do include BF4 - I went for the Sapphire ones. It doesn't mention it in the notes below but I'm 100% certain it was on the 'Included Items' section of the page.

I can't get on to check at the minute though as it says "too many connections" - maybe word has spread about these good deals :p

That's because I have all the UK's 290 stock. ;)
I can't help being good at what I do! :D

You're alright ;) Consider a company who I am no longer a 'fan' of did not even bother to respond to my emails, that's the end of our relationship. I'm just going to be cheeky from now on and post in the Customer Service section if they have a cheaper product :p
 
Was hoping to see the "normal" lightning 780 at the price of the "le" version. I can dream :)

That darn 2nd pci-e slot is nagging me to use it. Even thought I was going to wait til I could pick up 780's cheap...

Do it - just go crazy and justify it by saying it's Christmas or something.

Having been SLI for a few months now, I realise just how lonely my first card must have been in there alone... :(
 
Should have just gone with a ti!

Not sure a couple of lightnings will fit in SLI for me though... they got that big reactor thing, and look slightly wider than 2 slots. My board has "regular" spacing....

Looks like two slots to me - check out the Review on Toms Hardware with some more detailed photos.

Nothing special on prices all i see is supply and demand for miners = $£$£$.

That's exactly the point. The price is 'special' because there is consumer demand hence retailers and manufacturers have raised their prices. OcUK have tried to stay as low as possible whilst remaining profitable.
 
Gibbo I assume the 290 cards are cheap because they're EOL now?

Wanted to go SLI with another Windforce 3x 780 this month as I've got a 1440p monitor now but also tempted by the 290's instead...

Nope if anything that makes them worth more, next year reference design will be the one all of a sudden people want when there is no more and they realise the custom cards cost so much.

Our pricing is good, because I've manage to secure lots of stock so thought I'd just be the king of the market, by having stock and by also having the best price and by also giving so many games with so many cards as well. :)

Could you email me a discount code? I really, really, really want another 780 lightning! :D:D:D:D

Pretty please!
 
Am I being stupid? I've received my 3 codes to put into AMD Rewards but BF4 is not one of the available games to pick from?

AMD are not giving away BF4!

If you purchased a card which said BF4 Edition or BF4 included or had BF4 under free promotional items you will get the BF4 voucher with your delivery.

Haha I'm such a noob.

I just rang up and spoke to some lad who sounded very shy and he told me this too. :(

Depends what your priority is, price or noise level? The reference cards cost a fair chunk more, as such don't expect to see them sub £350 for a very very long time, with prices averaging more around £370-£380 at first.

Whereas right now were doing them for around £320-£330ish mark on reference and they have BF4 game and SILVER award, £50 worth of games, easily fetch £20-£30 sold on, giving you a 290 for sub £300. :)

It was obviously cost as just ordered a Sapphire Radeon R9 290 :D
