Still awaiting for that illustrious Sapphire deal on a Nitro 1342Mhz version , a certain site has reduced them slightly already.
Anyone have any feedback on the Asus dual coolers? Tempted to upgrade my blower 7950 because of the noise, but the few user reviews I can find state they're also pretty noisy at load, in which case I might as well just keep plodding on and wait til Squadron 42 is released before upgrading.

Nope , but I already have DOOM
But the White Asus cards do look tempting as well , it will match my White R5 case a lot
, its been almost 3 weeks without a graphics card and the itch just to buy one gets greater every day

PS , actually it does come with DOOM , but looks like you have to go to AMD to redeem it

What is the delivered price your seeing for Nitro+ OC 8G without Doom? I shall see if I can muster something up on our weekly deals, oh and which company is it?
You can only redeem from AMD if the reseller gives you a code. AMD do not give out codes, resellers do and only certain resellers are given codes which OcUK is one off.

£228.18 was £239.99 until today. I have the rainforest primus as well though , should be obvious where it from now

But we are £194.99, so a lot cheaper, unless I am missing something?
Associate
Not that I can see for the Sapphire (Yeah I know , brand snob) Nitro + OC 1342Mhz version , if you are at £194.99 , please link me and ill buy it tomorrow (Pay-Day)
Sorry for the confusion .
tbh the sapphire cooler is not the best. the msi and xfx gtr are far better.
From the reviews I read it is horribly loud. However, a quick fan slope thingy should sort it out. It starts of on a 0db mode which is good. Not so good afterwards.
Associate
I will never buy XFX and i have never experience anything from MSI , ironically one of my fans on the 290X Vapor-X failed and is with Sapphire for repair. Been buying Sapphire since the 9700 Pro days.
why not, they are the best rx480? buying a worse one because it has a different name and is worse makes no sense. The MSI has a very solid cooler as well.

I wouldn't say its loud at all to be honest.
that's good to hear.
I too atm can't hear anything but I have not gamed yet. I need to buy a new psu. My corsair 500cx is not going to cut it.
Would this be okay? its on offer atm

Best based on what exactly ? Long story why I would never buy XFX again , bad taste with RMA. I'm tempted to give the Asus one a go if I don't get the Sapphire Nitro. Circa £30 difference , the Sapphire has higher boost , but can be sorted by a bit of oc'ing , also the lights can be modded on the Nitrowhy not, they are the best rx480? buying a worse one because it has a different name and is worse makes no sense. The MSI has a very solid cooler as well.
