One question, do these come with an 8 pin adapter?

All of them should but if one does not we can send one out to you for free.

We have a few about the place.

 

[Yewen]

Not hanging around are we!

The first few are shipping out now.

Is it worth me upgrading to one of these? Currently I have two 8800GTS 512 SLI'd.

I have a 28" monitor and game at 1920x1200 and 1680x1050.

Just going for the one or two cards?

It probably would not be worth it in all games, in non SLI enabled games it will be a massive approvement but if the game is SLI enabled it will probably be similar in game performance levels.

Up to you, they will all sell fast though so I suggest attacking the review sites as soon as possible!

Is it luck of draw for the overclocked ones, or do early birds get them first?

The stock is mixed on the shelves and is completely random.

We have cards bundled with games, without games, with overclocks, without overclocks, with mad overclocks, with special boxes and we cannot guarantee who gets what.

If someone orders multiple cards we will try to match clock speeds when it comes to shipping.

 

[Yewen]

Argh. I can't access the site, I have to use a proxy just to access the forums..dont want to submit credit details through a proxy and last time I phoned up an order I was told that forum free shipping is only through internet orders!

Add me to MSN: [email protected] and I will call you to take an order if you need a hand.

Can do the shipping for you over the phone also.

 

[Yewen]

No problem, your order should be out of the warehouse by 12:00 and on its way!

The GTX 280 is the same size as a GTX 260.

 

[Yewen]

Oh **** off! I have to buy a 135mm F2.0L today and there is no-way I can justify this ontop

Just buy the graphics card then!

 

[Yewen]

Would this give me a good boost over my current BFG 8800 GTS 512mb OC?

Yes.

Looking forward to reading this thread tomorrow, when people get there cards, no doubt some will moan and some be over the moon with there superclocked cards

Think of it as being happy with a good card or a bit extra. Its a stunning price for a stock OEM card yet alone a retail boxed.

 

[Yewen]

What is the cut off time for the order to still get it delivered tomorrow with Saturday Delivery shipping.

4:00 technically but if you phone an order through we may be able to push it a little.

 

[Yewen]

Ah what the hell...just bought..fed up with ATI.
Anyone know what make these are?


Yewen....whats the chances of getting it delivered tomorow without paying the £15 for Sat delivery? Order number OC734934.

Cheers

You could end up with EVGA, BFG, Zotac, Asus, Gigabyte, Gainward...

Its on a Monday to Friday service so it is highly unlikely that DHL will attempt this.

 

[Yewen]

Yewen I hate you!

Just saw it there and clicked buy right away!

Done!

Not gonna be a bad upgrade from a 9800GTX

Now could I be cheeky and suggest you could look at my order OC734944 and pick me out a lovely EVGA one?

Not quite an EVGA...

Guys it really is luck of the draw on what you get, have so many of these coming through that there is no way of guaranteeing what you get.

 

[Yewen]

Ok purchase gettin made hope its worth the gamble from my 4870

Ill chuck it on MM for a crackin price so anyone lookin somethin like this keep your eye out for a bargain.

Yewen whats your stock levels like for the o/c versions vs the vanilla versions. Just thinking of my odds of gettin somethin a bit special lol

Make me happy yewen

Stock is going down fast, there were more of the OC cards at the start and all but two of the other cards are game bundles.

The worst cards we have are Asus cards, but they have a good warranty so its swings and roundabouts.

Tempted to buy 2 if it ensures decent cards

<I can hear the bank manager laughing already>

ps3ud0

Well yours is about to ship so be quick!

 

[Yewen]

double apols

They are all mixed in so its pot luck, the last card could be a heavily overclocked card or a stock speed baby.

 

[Yewen]

3 Asus for J1nxy please

Are there much differences? Serious impulse purchase - and only because Ive literally just built my new PC with some extra bits and still need to put the OS in (which was gonna happen this weekend )

ps3ud0

The cards range from GTX 280 performance to onces with mild factory overclocks, you would not be dissapointed with any card we are shipping for this price.

 

[Yewen]

lol J1nxy that's what you'd deserve for being greedy I seriously wish I could get 2 though, but I'd be living off fresh air for the next few months.

Yewen, how close is my order to being shipped (OC734830), I'm looking forward to it God I'm impatient.

Impatient you don't say!

Your order has been picked and it is on the packing bench.

 

[Yewen]

I'm so excited. Broke now. But get paid next week !

I hope for a EVGA but I'l be happy with whatever.
My trusty 8800gtx is finally biting the dust after a good 2 years work. So all in all very nice upgrade.

Yewen how many Asus ones have been shipped so far and how many more left

That would be telling.

 

[Yewen]

If i call into the shop can i ask for a specific brand? Id much rather an EVGA or BFG

Wont be able to guarantee anything unfortunately. Whatever the warehouse bring out will be the card.

 

[Yewen]

Yewen how much stock do you have left? I'm tempted right now but i have to know soon!

EDIT: you able to go on msn?

We have a lot of these still in stock. Plenty to ship out.

 

[Yewen]

Excellent, whats the latest i could order for saturday delivery? or has the time passed?

EDIT: as special delivery sometimes arrives saturday, what's the latest that could be a possibility?

EDIT2: another question, if i didn't order today do you reckon you'll still have stock on monday, and would you be getting more stock eventually?

If you call our sales team they should still be able to get one out.

Doubt it, the way its going we should be out of stock by the morning!

 

[Yewen]

is there any point with upgrading from a bfg gtx260oc edition to a whatever comes through the door 280? is the difference that huge? i can see the point going from a 8800gts 320 to the 280 but a 260 to the 280! hmmm i am trying to resist and talk myself out of it in the other hand though!!!

i can play most of my games on max apart from crysis dx10! so it does not balance the books as we would say!

If your card is a core 216 I would save the money mate, you will notice next to no improvement. Even if it is an older 260 unless it is struggling in your games you may be best off holding on for the next batch of cards in a few months time.

Forgot to mention I am running a GTX 280, got one of the last EVGA cards before we sold out the first time. Slightly gutting when some BFG GTX 280 OC2 cards were up for grabs.
