Ah, the link at the bottom of the page.

I assume that's an error as it was the pre-order price.

You're best posting in Customer Service if you want an "official" answer before you order.
 
To be honest, I wouldn't get a reply til tomorrow obviously, and the CS I've had this week from them has been top notch, I am not going to fight over £10 after theyve upgraded the PSU and board for free for me. I just wondered that was all.

Great price, tempted to get the 1gb, just debating whether its worth another £10 (60) for an extra 256mb vram... hmmm...
 
Might give you some idea: Nvidia GTX 460 2GB Performance Review

It compares 768MB, 1GB and 2GB.

The above graphs summarize the overall relative performance in the titles tested today. However the actual benefit of 768MB vs 1GB version is more than what the graphs reflect since they do not take into account the settings where 768MB were not benchmarked. In HAWX and Dirt 2, applying 8XAA resulted in painful menu slowdowns but the 1GB and 2GB versions handled it without any hiccups. Similarly, Far Cry 2 was extremely choppy with 8XAA applied with 768MB GTX 460. Stalker: Clear sky was also unplayable due to the low frame buffer.

If you want the best gaming experience then out of those 2 cards I think I'd pay the extra £10 for the 1GB.

Edit:

Another one: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 1GB & GTX 460 768MB Review

And another: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 768MB and 1GB Video Card Reviews

I have another brother thats in a healthy relationship and has a 2 year old son living in essex. the brother from essex offered me the gtx 260 for 50 quid, because Im building my brother in carlisle a rig for christmas.
