£350 would be the max I would pay for a 7970 or any gfx card for that matter and that would be if I was a little flush. I have rarely paid over 200 traditionally 9700pro/9800pro/x800xl/x800xt/3870 have been my main cards over the last 10 years or so, 3870 being the cheapest at £125ish, I was really going to splash out with the 7900 generation but the pricing is just to silly, so unless I am amazed and AMD re-evaluate their card pricing, a second hand 6870 for £80 ish or a 6950 for £150ish will get my monies. Maybe if the 78xx come in at under £200
I paid £375 for my Sapphire X800 XT Platinum Edition and this is when they first come out and there was a major shortage I wanted this card for half life 2 but as the source code was buggy back then it never unleash the full potential of the card back then.
Before that the 8500, 9700 & 9800 seemed to be sub £300 cards.
£370 would be my limit on the new cards I think. I hope it's a tad cheaper than that though.
