ORDER NOW




Limited to 35 units and won't ever be repeated online or in-store, so it is your chance to grab one, but be quick as the cheapest RX 590's in the channel are over £150, this is a bargain and prices will be going up over the next month or two for sure, maybe following months due to corona virus.

Does this definitely come with the 2 games and xbox pass? According to AMD's site its only for the newer cards, the 590 is pass only. Website and email says 2 games and pass so I suppose it has to be honoured, right?

I believe just the pass will work, if you manage to bag the additional games then good stuff, but officially its just the pass.

Gibbo, assuming you're not going to suprise us with more stock, what's the chances of the PowerColor RX590 coming back down to £149 as I would probably grab one if it does.

No more stock, we oversold by around 20 units and we have fulfilled those orders.
Powercolor not much chance, 590 is long EOL and the performance bargain of century as I informed every at Black Friday, once these are all gone were left with 580's and 5500 XT, so for the money the 590 is a clear winner.

We might be able to do some of these Gigabytes at £149 as I got the stock last year very cheap, so maybe something I can repeat say next Friday at £149 as a last hurrah but were supply all drying up we have to be careful to not just sell all our stock and then have nothing to sell, times could get insanely bad if corona virus keep spreading.

All manufacturers are locked down now, some were quick to react, some not so, factories are either still closed or only at partial operating capacity and those that are open some cannot actually build anything because the component factories are still closed and most of the board manufacturers tend to only keep component on hand for 4-6 weeks in advance which of course has now passed since CNY and why so many now have no stock.

I stocked OcUK until May several weeks ago but due to us having good stock levels were seeing business increase simply as stock is drying up.

This was like a last hurrah deal to try and help those who could not make it to shop birthday, general feel is now pricing will just go up every month until around June then depending on virus control will spell out pricing and supply for the next six months.

The Chinese were very quick with locking down and quarantining but even still their production is at a halt and unfortunately the EU/UK has done a terrible job at locking it down and as such the virus continues to spread and spread.

I havent had any email with codes for mine yet. Really, you should be getting games too as per what was advertised on the page and the invoice itself quoting the free games and pass.

Same, email came through stating free games, was stated on website when I purchased but when I redeemed it says just gamepass. I queried this with amd who stated that rx590 was not part of the free games deal but so far no response from ocuk

I am afraid AMD won't give those games for a 590, unfortunately they supply us one code for all GPU's and in the AMD marketing and T&C pages it describes what GPU qualify for what, it is not amazingly clear.

All we can offer is to take the card back for a full refund if you are unhappy.

 

[Gibbo]

Not saying I'm unhappy at all, quite happy with what I paid for it but the website clearly advertised it as coming with the games and from memory detailed the amount saved where it was included. I've seen that AMD advertise it as not being included, so why did OC advertise it as including?

AMD give us a single product which has the code which then releases the games based on your purchase. If we could give you the additional games we would, but they are locked out based on the GPU.
All we can offer is to take the product back and give a full refund, your return shipping to us will also be covered.

We now also have codes that are explicitly just for the XBOX Pass to prevent any further issues with miss leading for future purchases on 590.
