Sapphire Radeon R9 280X Toxic OC 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Card

[Dave1240]

Does anyone know why this card has had the ETA changed constantly?. I read that sapphire recalled all the UK units for some reason or other. Does anyone know the problem?.

I have it pre-ordered at at £244 but i have noticed ALL the competitors have long ETA dec/jan time . I have noticed the prices are jumping over £300 for this GPU so not sure if i should wait it out or cancel and get something else.

They realised they could make more money using them to mine Litecoins for a few months then sell them as refurbished.

maybe ocuk are slowly getting an almost constant supply? or I got lucky

Gibbo told me thursday morning that ocuk were gettng 200 asus dcuii 280x on monday.
I stuck an order in on thursday.
my order shipped thursday afternoon

they never left preorder status on the website and my card was definitely brand new and never opened so must have been new stuck
