OcUK PREPARING A 290X DEAL TO BLOW ALL OTHERS AWAY!

Gibbo said:
Hi there


We all know what a great card 290X is and offers GTX 970 real good competition and with most UK retailers around £269-£319 they sell ok but nowhere near GTX 970/980.

The OcUK MSI 290X LE deal we did at £249.95 is due to run out.

The last few weeks I've being working hard on getting the 290X down to a new price point and I'm hopeful tomorrow I shall accomplish this.


So how does £229.99 Inc VAT and delivered for a 290X with 3yr warranty sound? ;)


This will be no doubt the last chance to get a 290X performing card at such a price due to stocks being sold at a loss to clear them. If rebranding happens and 290X becomes say 380X you can bet they will be far closer to £300 than £200 ;)

Only issue I see is that its none reference a pita to water cool. You got any other 290x coming in that price point that's water cooling friendly?

I can only assume that this isn't the deal you were talking about Gibbo, seeing as you stated 229.99 inc. Even though this is a cracking deal in its own right, I'm tempted to snag one for my sons machine.

YOUR BASKET
1 x MSI Radeon R9 290X LE Gaming Edition 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card £239.99
Total : £239.99 (includes shipping : ).

Hmm I see that card has changed in price, I can only assume it was a cached page issue, due to the new TWO promotion.

Edit: In fact I see now that the TWO list has changed completely. I can only assume that when I look at it earlier, and checked the date at the top of the page it was right at the point that the page was being updated. Oh well no harm no foul.
 
The Matrix now takes the venerable title of 'best value graphics card at OcUK', previously held by the reference 780ti cards they managed to source from the Far East for the same price.

This one is knocking round at around the same price.

Have you linked the wrong card there? The Tri-X is £70 more :confused:

Matt - Don't you already have 4 x 8GB reference 290X's?

EDIT: Very tasty price on the Matrix. Had I not already picked up a Titan I might have been interested (although would have still had the Eyefinity niggles I had in the past).
