STOP & LOOK - Absolute bargains to be had, don't miss out!!!

I hate to mention this but... :D

Those who ordered a GTX have got a discount. SOME of those who ordered a 7800GT got a GTX, but some have been left to rot with no discount or anything :( And to top this off, I really did get excited when Gibbo said the cut off point for not getting a card was 9pm. I ordered at 8:30 :( cries

Speak to gibbo, he will do whatever he can to try and sort out a good deal for you. :)
 
Just fired up my b-grade X1900XTX and i get instant graphical corruption in the bios.

I have to say im pretty gutted, i just sold my 7900GTX in the members market since i was getting this bargain, so now rather than having 2 top cards, ive actually got zero.

I paid £9 delivery, ill have to pay another £8 to get it back to overclockers, and spend another £9 on delivery of another card, which makes it even more sore on the wallet.

Gibbo, can you email me at my email in my trust to sort out a discount on one of the X1800XT's at £145 + VAT, its gonna be about the best i can afford after this debacle.

You'll most likely get your delivery charges refunded (i.e. you'll only pay for delivery once)
I hate to say it, but you really shouldn't have sold your card before getting and testing this one.

Have you let it warm up and run any 3d intensive apps? A lot of the x1900xt's are garbled in bios but fine once they warm up.

Surely they will replace it with a working 1900XTX?
 
I doubt they will replace it with a new one.
You bought a B Grade one, it comes with a risk attached to it.
You'l get your money back.

The only reason people were getting brand new cards instead of B Grade ones at the wekend was the crash. Doubt it will happen again any time soon.

i feel for you :(

i got a few items faulty or the wrong items, all back on rma

When clicking on the B-Grade or Clearance section links, it now brings me straight back to the main page - something up with that part of the site or does it just mean they have nothing there on sale at the moment?

Bug i think... up until a few mins ago when clicking on almost anything i got booted back to the front page.

Edit : Yeah its bugs, looks like they are up to something behind the scenes.

The nivdia page for example was http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/nVidia_Graphics_Cards.html
now http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_NVIDIA_Graphics_Cards_257.html
link in the catalogue is dodgy and the standard 404 handling brings you back to the first page.

Hopefully they're putting loads more 7800GTX's up at £90 for those of us not fast enough to catch the first rush ;)
 
Can't believe that price, gutted I missed out on them. I don't even particularly have the bug for buying stuff, but that woulda been too good to miss.

*Makes mental note to check the B-Grade and Clearance sections every day*
