I paid an actual real life scalper £1295 for my Red Devil. Bet he's feeling a bit scalped these days seeing what they're now going for! Unless my card dies and I find I have no warranty then I'll be feeling considerably worse than just 'scalped' I would imagine...

Paying the £1800 for the toxic is cheap compared to scalpers also add on a extra £800 plus you get no Insurance or anything these are dark days


Looking at the 6900xt's most are also 2y warranty

A pathetic 2 year warranty for a near 2 grand card as well.

I'd have done the same myself by now. Was just yankin' yer chain. Beast of a card. Enjoy!

I'm sad that my pun went unnoticed.

Wow, no placebo, 6900XT flys now.

As expected, people on Ryzen 3000 don’t realise how much faster Ryzen 5000 series is. I moved from a 3950X.

Yup, hell of a pairing

Enjoy man!!

I was Intel for a loooooooooooooong time, then Zen3 finally fixed AMD gaming performance and I was straight over like the floozy I am!

Thanks, the last AMD CPU I had before my Intel 4770k (8years) was a 6 core 1090T.
The 4770k was a great chip.
Hoping this 5900X sees me through the same timescale. (Says after upgrading from 3900X in only 2 years)

That card is... well, it's clearly a big chap... and oddly handsome despite having green on it. I'd say positively monolithic if not for the rounded corners aso.

Don't know why but at first glance I was reminded of a speeder from early Star Wars movies or part of a Pod Racer from later ones.

Nice but not my cuppatea, I'm hoping for a Nitro+ SE 6800XT buy to go my way atm
