When are these expected to be back in stock? Some places are saying end of November which is ridiculous. What's my best chance of getting one ASAP?

 

[Buckster]

Almost feels like a paper launch

Perhaps why so few bf4 editions

Dread to think how long for 3rd party - Gibbo said about 4-6 weeks after launch so at this rate not long after the reference ones !!!

Gibbo posted that he has 1000 290's in stock (for 5th) and over 100 290X arriving next week for immediate dispatch.

Perhaps the online site could be updated to show which as at moment suggests 15/11 for earliest

They might all have been pre-ordered but I didn't get that impression - and of course the 290 doesn't exist (except in one small corner of France) yet. Just had a look and a few are showing 4/11/13 so thats only monday.

selling out as fast they get in.
I assume the 290 be also hard to get even if a lot is in stock once out.
many with lesser cards will buy one.

Hi

Do the 290s due next week still feature the reference cooler ?

 

[Orangey]

Yields must be terrible.
