Hence why I went elsewhere, not all stores have price gouged this way.

Why send out 2 cards to a reviewer when you can just send one card and 2 bios'?
Like who ?
I would assume OCUK has real-time price algos that increase & lower the price of certain products according to demand (within a certain range).
The 8gb/4gb bios unlocking was confirmed to be just for the reviewer cards. AMD confirmed it in an AMA on reddit yesterday.

So PCPER got a bit mixed up on things.
I still remember cards like the 6800LE and their unlockable cores - last time we had that was the HD6950!
Some 290 unlocked to 290x

So its ok that some people could pay £175 for it and a few hours later others having to pay £188 for the same card from the same warehouse from the same pile? Its not like it was on some time sensitive special offer.
Do you really think they would want people out grabbing the 4 gig cards if they get more for 8 gig cards?

The performance of Polaris is all over; at times it beats 980 without a sweat and other times it can't beat 970.......
Slightly worrying for the life expectancy of motherboards!
The price increasing for no reason would be the issue in question i think..Its went up almost £15 in the space of a few hours with stock already in hand.
