-== OcUK Extreme GeForce GTX 280 Amazing Deal! ==-
- Thread starter Yewen
- Start date
I was going to save up a few months and maybe get a 4870X2 - but now you've gone and made me buy one of these!
My wife's gonna go ape, and I'm blaming OcUK. If you get an angry Russian on the phone you know why.
Explain the money you saved on the GTX 280 compared to buying a 4870x2 and it will be fine
I still cant believe how much that deal became an impulsive buy! I didnt even go on the forums first, saw it, bought it, talked about it!

Couldnt resist, cant SLI on my board but It will be the incentive to do it down the line..

Yeah, buy now, think about the consequences later
I don't think I've ever clicked that buy button as quick before.Just swap them around once per day for virtual SLI.

Question for you learn'd ppl...
Can i just drop this in to replace my 8800GTS, or will i have to do the whole driver uninstall - reinstall thing ? ( Xp32 & Win7 Beta1 )

tbh I always do a re-format of my HDD fresh install everything when I get new gfx card.
its why I have 2 1tb HDD's
I got monday off too. Sadly this wasnt the reason gotta go to dentist at 2:00
Hopefully it will come before then

Think a new PSU willbe required for 2 x 280, hadnt though about that!
Best to at least uninstall the drivers and reinstall mate
Sometimes the system wont boot up with the new card or you will just get a blank screen! Saves you wasting any time.

PS Yewen, dont want to be cheeky but I currently have all zotac cards in my gaming rigs, could you put a zotac in for me if there is one there?
It would be really appriciated!

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?
