*** ANOTHER BONKERS DEAL: MSI GTX 680 POWER EDITION ONLY £259.99 UNTIL 9AM TOMORROW!! ***

[mikedigitales]

These have a nice three year warranty, where Overclockers do the leg work too right?

I know there your colours

I know!!

Mark 1 yellow/black

I'm looking for an upgrade from my GTX 280, which has served me well for 4 years.

Do I go for one of these, or hold out for a deal on a 770?

I know they are essentially the same card, but the 770 has faster clocks all round. I want to buy a card that's going to last a few more years, as it's quite rare for me to have the money to afford one.

Thanks.

There wont be many deals on the 770's yet, this 680 deal is pretty hard to beat, great card and great price, and will be a huge upgrade over your 280

Edit: theres only 9 left as of now, be quick!

Depends if you can wait a fair while for a deal on a 770, this 680 price is crazy low!

Thanks for the advice. I take it this card can be pushed beyond the current clock speeds without too much hassle?

Fairly sure these flash to lightnings, which means you can volt the nuts off it destroying just about every 770 on the market, the obvious exception being the 770 lightning.

Just picked up one of these now their are only 6 left at this price

 

[Gibbo]

Hi there

As promised if they sold out quick, I'd add more and this is done!

 

[andicole0]

Ah boo! only one per customer, I'm looking for 2 to replace my 480's.

Mind you the KFA2's will only be £10 more when they arrive.

Andi.

 

[Jerry64]

Ordered one too earlier at this price had to be done

 

[Gibbo]

Yeah this is crazy!
As we can't officially say it, but these are Lightnings with a different BIOS.

 

[NeedAUsername]

I looked around and people say the Lightning BIOS can be flashed on this card and it is the EXACT card.

So does this have the backplate?

 

[Jerry64]

Yes they have Backplate etc, this video will explain it

[RavenXXX2]

Yeah it's a 680 lightning, cracking deal.

 

[rolypolyman]

Crackin deal but no use to me as a 7950 owner, not worth it.

Nope, do as I will and pickup another 7950 s/hand when you want it (7970 in my case)

Is there any free games like SC?

 

[Jerry64]

Yes Free SC blacklist comes with it

 

[Marshy]
