LOL! A lot of people seem to think you would for £80.

On a sad note - Novatech don't have any of the £214 VTX 6950s in stock so I'm having to plump for an XFX from eBuyer for £220.

My condolences - On a more positive note - Im toying with the idea of getting one of Novatechs own 5850's for £150+P&P Since i has been bought to my attention that 2 5850's will literally run toe to toe with a 5970 which still offers superior performance compared to the 6970

And no - I wont fucking trade an awesome card For £80 - its £110 or they can go buy the same card brand new from other places for £220 or more

MoonPig · Dec 30, 2010

Freedom, if you offer that card for some bum loving, give me a call...

I'l shove the sub from my Z5500's up your fucking arse so deep if you come within 100meters of me you'd be shitting tweeters for a week my friend

Anyway - I have just placed an order for my next 5850. with Novatech on 'next day' delivery - but it says it wont be here until tuesday - motherfuckers!

I'm sure that's called a spit roast.

I'm just about to hit the buy button on an 2GB XFX 6950 from eBuyer. I'll get it tomorrow.

£230 - the most I've ever spent on a GFX card.

UPDATE: Tomorrow my f'ing arse! Says tomorrow when ordering then when you come to pay it claims the 4th as next day. ARRRGH!

If thats the case, get the Asus with voltage control, you may well need that little bit of voltage

A little more expensive at £229 but well worth the extra volts IMO.

In reply to your post about ebuyer and delivery.

I ordered a GTX460 1GB graphics card from ebuyer on christmas eve - delivery was supposed to be 30th December.

Click on order, click on track - says dispatched 29th December.

Go to city link with the tracking code - comes up with arrived at delivery depot 30th December @ 05.45 am. Thinks to myself

Goes on to track parcel later that day . no change - no out for delivery

Surprise, surprise checked today - still not out for delivery. :banghead:

So all I'm saying is good luck if you think you'll get your delivery on the 4th.

Put it this way I would like to :wtf:

I'm stupid, I went against my own advice and didn't check the delivery page where they exclude bank holidays.

Pish!

Not to worry, the best thing about it is that I'll have a 6950 anyway.

MoonPig · Dec 31, 2010

You'll get a 6950, but i expect you to unlock it to a 6970!

we're in the same boat - but look at it this way - at least we made it before the VAT increase.

I just hope the Novatech branded 5850 is a good overclocker :|

Whole point of me buying the XFX and not the PowerColor.

You'll get a PowerColor 5850. I asked them if the images for display purpose only were the actual cards and they confirmed it.

Hopefully it'll be a good OC'er.

i read in some forums that some people got shipped a palit card. but for £150 im not going to complain - a google search shows most powercolour 5850s still above £200

InnocentCriminal · Dec 31, 2010

^^

Eitherway, you'll be happy. I won't be able to dick with my new card until the mother-in-law fucks off which won't be until the 6th.

WEAK!

FreedomEclipse · Dec 31, 2010

I think the last step for me would be to get an SSD as a boot drive

Krony · Dec 31, 2010

And krony we did have bad weather past couple weeks right i guess dpd couldn't deliver to your doors because of that?

Krony · Dec 31, 2010
