OcUK GUIDE TO ORDERING YOUR AMD 9070 GRAPHICS CARD TODAY AT 14:00

just wanted to let you know mine has since shipped. No ETA yet but given there's no weekend delivery I'll safely assume that we're looking at Monday, or Tuesday if volume is exceptionally high.
My dispatched email says 'Arriving 2 working days (Mon-Fri)' so I assume 2 working days means Tuesday. Bit awkward as I have family visiting next week so I will have to be arranging things around the delivery now.
 
Where can I get a £730 5070ti?
You can’t without time sorting it all out. I was making a comparison between MSRP values. The other place has the price of the ventus listed at £729 and they only show confirmed prices. At other times they remove the price altogether.

I’d both are available, a 9070 XT at £630 and a 5070ti at £730, what would you go for? Stock will come and go.
 
Count yourself lucky, mine still says "order confirmed" 24 hours later

I think I prefer 'order confirmed' It's a declaration, a statement of fact. 'Picking' sounds like they're lording over the cards, deciding whether the pleb gets one or do they press 'cancel' and laugh manically, drunk on new GPU power.

I could be overthinking things a smidge.

And who's to say IF Nvidia get readily available stock that the AMD price won't be slightly better especially since AMD themselves said they are hoping for ongoing MSRP stock from partners.
If I want a card now what are the options? Comparing something that's available for something that can't even be pre-ordered is not a true comparison.

Just wait another ten years using that 480 eh

Someone is making a killing. Just seen the pulse 9070 on here at £530 and yet they are supposed to be $50 cheaper than the 9070 XT or £30. So who is price gouging at £629. The AIB, AMD or OC?

Where possible you should wait for things to calm down so that people can buy at the right price. Clearly the demand is being taken advantage of. My daughter will have to wait as her 7900 GRE gets too hot currently which is why I wanted a card for her despite the fact that I only bought it 3 months ago.

I’ll wait for the right deal.

Managed to get a card last night at 10:15, last drop of the sapphire pulses but my order has said picking since 11pm last night. I got an order confirmation email but no dpd email or anything. I assume I got my order and it’s just on picking due to there being no weekend delivery? :)

Most likely, unless it gets picked up by DPD today it wont be processed any fruther. OCuk shifted 5k worth of cards so you can imagine how that looks in terms of logistics
