Sapphire AMD Deals

So does that mean everything apart from the 6700xt is arriving with Overclockers next week with a possible dispatch over the weekend?

Based on Gibbo's statement I'd say yeah seems that way. Air Freight takes about a week from Hong Kong (door to door) so the cards should arrive in the UK early this week and possibly arrive on our doorsteps later on this week.

We had / have XT and XTX 7900 in stock, I think the XT have sold out and XTX about to sell out, the shipment from Sapphire is due this week to replenish those stocks and the 6700 XT's should ship from HK this coming weekend and be with us a few days / week later. :)
 
Probably just a pricing error.

@Gibbo Does this need correcting?



Seems our warehouse found one unit from old stock, hence the site has re-listed it and at the price it was last sold at, I shall adjust it and sell it at a loss, a huge loss to clear it.
 
Bit the bullet and ordered the 7900XT to replace my 2070S. Was initially set on waiting for 4070 to drop in price, but given this is comparable performance to a 4070Ti for less money AND given it's got a much bigger frame buffer it'll hopefully serve me well for a few years at 1440P.
I'm in the exact same situation, 1440p and the 2070S just isn't cutting it any more. Pulled the trigger on the 7900XT and building a whole new system to boot. Seems the cost of living crisis is finally bringing performance PC parts down a little.

Did a similar upgrade from a 5700XT to 7900XT, it was quite a big leap. (although substantially more expensive than our 5700XT / 2070S cards)
 
I think i'm gonna beat my 1080ti with a couple more months, tempting not gonna lie, but until a new game comes out I really want to play I think ill hold back. If i didn't have a 4k monitor I definatly would be buying the 7900xt that's for sure 600-700 is where that tier of card should be imo, but as I do have a 4k monitor the XTX is what I want and I don't think that's at my price point yet.

I'm tempted by an upgrade from my 3070. It has coped pretty well on my 4K 120Hz LG C1 by reducing some settings and using DLSS and/or resolution scaling. I doubt it will run games like Starfield at settings I'd enjoy though, and it already failed to run the Witcher 3 upgraded version well enough for me to attempt the new playthrough I was looking forward to.

I don't really want to spend what it takes to get a 4080 or 4090 as my gaming is fairly evenly spread across PC and the consoles, with a big backlog of games that will run perfectly well on the 3070. I would like something better than the 3070 for a few bigger upcoming titles though, and that will hopefully last a few years playing at 4K with decent settings.

A 7900 XT seems like a pretty good deal with that in mind? The overall opinion seems to be an extra £200 isn't worth it for a 7900 XTX and benchmarks seem to bear that out with often just a few frames between them. The 3070 hasn't had the performance for me to really play anything with ray tracing so I'm not overly worried about that, although part of my decision not to replay Witcher 3 on the 3070 was the lack of RT performance. With RT off it was mostly fine even at 4K.

If it's helpful to know, I'm using a 12400, 32GB DDR 3600, and SATA SSDs. My PSU is a Corsair HX 750W 80Plus Gold from 2013 which I know I should probably be looking at replacing.
 
Are there any particular PSU recommendations? I'm a bit out of the loop on those. Would a k CPU make that much difference? The benchmarks all indicated the 12400 wasn't a particular bottleneck at 4K and I'm happy if I hit 60fps.
