Superb This Week Only Deal - Huge ATI Price Reductions!!

Fx-Overlord · 15 Mar 2006 at 14:13

If you ask me, the X850XT and the PowerColor X1900XT are both at really good prices.

There are some 7900GTs selling for the same price as that XT and the XT will be quite a bit faster.

i think the deals look pretty damn good.
if only i was looking to buy now. by the time i purchase they are likely to be a similar price but then i would have missed months of use!

Possibly on some items but trust me when I see this will not be repeatable on the X1900's for quite a long time.......

No moaning from me Gibbo...

Very suprised about the number of hardware on special offer this week. Going to be a very vusy week for you and the OcUK staff

When I first saw the 'Over 75 Great Value Products', my first reaction was 'wtf, they have gone crazy'

The ATi cards are extremely cheap... too cheap, hehe. OcUK have excelled thier selves by selling the cards at these prices for a week. Great stuff.

I know that people go on about that they can find the cards cheaper elsewhere, but they dont have them in stock atm. OcUK by the looks of things have plenty of stock to go around as you are one of the main players in the market. Its understanable.

You could have got the Opty's on special offer this week, a cheap Dual Core could have done me nicely

Anyways, great stuff Gibbo. I'l get saving so when hopefully this comes along again, maybe next year I can save some money on such bargins like these

Sweet

just bought me 1900xt-x Lol......money.......pocket........smell something

nice deals enough to warrant me spending me saved cash on a rig

Bennah · 15 Mar 2006 at 14:32

Cant go wrong with buying a X1900 XTX, at these prices, definate buy. Cant believe that you can have a X1900 XT for £310...

All the deals come at the wrong time for me

gibbo, ive currently got 6800gt scoring 6k in 3dmark05, an A64 3200 winchester @ 2.6ghz and 2 x 1gb of Corsair XMS PC 4400 Ram running DDR520mhz, what i want to know is it worth me getting an x1900XTX 512mb with my current cpu, or would i have to upgrade that to see any benefit? thanks

edit i run games at 1280 x 1024

axer · 15 Mar 2006 at 14:41

Your CPU is fine, a X1900XTX will allow you to use high AA/AF setiings at 1280*1024 and still have a higher framerate than a 6800GT, but remember that a X1900XTX is PCIe only and not AGP

Puppetmaster · 15 Mar 2006 at 14:45

yeh im on pci express

i assume my 480watt psu is fine, antec neo power

just out of interest, ive got my 6800gt watercooled, ive got a danger den block, forget what, its not the specific 6/7 series 1 though, can i use it on this carD?

Yes I suspect you will hit over 10,000 marks and possibly 11k-12k with some tweaking. At these prices it would silly to miss out because if they sell out then I will have too take off sale and at the moment people seem to be diving in to avoid missing out, so please don't hang around if you've seen a deal you want from us.

Puppetmaster · 15 Mar 2006 at 14:48

its a maze 4 block so that should be fine

thanks off 2 order now

When are we likely to see the 7900GTX's, preferably the XFX models come back into stock?

no_1_dave · 15 Mar 2006 at 15:23

Looks good but,

1) There isn't anything there i'm after for my upgrade next week
2) I have no money till next week anyway

I look forward to next weeks "This Week Only" though. Do us a favour & put some 7900 GTX's in it

Jonny ///M · 15 Mar 2006 at 15:31

Yeh same here no money until pay day or else i would picked up a X1900xt instead of getting a 7900gtx. I want to wait and see how cheap i can ge ta 7900gtx for though :rolleyes:

Steven · 15 Mar 2006 at 15:31

I couldn't resist the x1900xt at that price! I'll worry about where the money is going to come from later.

The x1900's perform on a par? why wouldnt you buy the ATI?

with an XT at 239+vat i think the 7900's are just lost, totally lost tbh

eternity · 15 Mar 2006 at 15:46

I think its the noise issue people have with these cards. Just puts me off.

Bennah · 15 Mar 2006 at 15:54

Get a Arctic Silencer for it. Do the job great and nice and quiet. Well the one that I put on my X850 XT PE was anyways
