ROMCLMAO (rocking on my chair lmao)
Nope. It was ATI that done something
Thing is that most places are arround £350 so apart from OCUK's crazy low £305 it is half price
lol it's only a few months ago people were paying upto £135-£140 for a X1950Pro AGP, crazy performance for £170 this
It's a GPU lovers dream in 2008
ps great deals these

Ahh, I've only seen OCUK's pricing on this card and didn't know this. Well done OCUK. Maybe throw a free E7200 with the GTX 280?. That might help sales
(just joking - to all Nvidia lovers and GTX 280 owners).I didn't expect the 48-- cards to be this good. Yes, I did expect better performances but nothing like this and at such great prices. 2008 is the time for high end gaming that doesn't cost over £200 (well for ATI).

Everyone buy the Vortexx Neo.
Haha i was looking at that and read your review on it on another site and does look rather good.
But i plan to buy a 4850 and add this cooler but do i need to put some RAM heatsinks on the ram, or not?
Cheers.

About 12 screws off the 4870 cooler, then fit the new one is just 4 screws on the Vortexx.
You would not guess that we rate them would you, halved the idle temperature on the 4870 that I did and the load never went above the stock idle. The card was fully driver clocked in the ATI driver.
Very nice very nice.
Would one of these fit my good old 2900XT? and if so do you need ram sinks aswell or does the vortex cool the lot?
Thanks

Storming deal on the 30" dell as in £150 please =D
It's a shame the cheapest OCUK delivery = £8 because despite being some of the cheapest card prices I've seen when you add on delivery competitors become cheaper again :/.
You need a reduced/saver delivery imo gibbo =)

Before I commit myself to one of these 4870s, can Gibbo confirm Gainward's warranty period, how long is it and will it be dealt with OCUK or directly with Gainward?
Sorry, saw it, only 1 year, think I'm gonna go for Sapphire's!
