@Gibbo - Vega Preorders?

[Lustral]

Happy Days!
I must have been lucky.... Got a Limited Edition with the games for £558
Was going to wait for the Asus Strix models in September, but these things will be too hard to get hold of I think.
Been waiting for 3 months since my build with a stop gap GTX 970 on loan, and wanted an AMD card of 1080 level to go with my Freesync monitor, so chuffed to bits.

Which brand did you go for ?

The Sapphire LE one was only £549

Did I miss the lower prices? Just popped down to the bank to transfer funds and now they've gone up.

You've dodged a bullet believe me...

My order appears has "cancelled" even though I did get the PayPal email confirmation (but not the OCUK one). What's going on?

I really hope this doesn't happen to me, seems the money has been taken from my account though...

Gone in 45 minutes apparently...

One of the regular air cooled ones.

Good deal on a Ti here but it's a lot more.

I got the Sapphire one for £549 - (sorry £558 includes delivery)

Only just managed to have time to check Vega - the initial Vega 64 cards was under £500? Aww... looks like I missed it. Not many bundles either, can only see two air 64 bundles with motherboards but both are the K5.

Hmm, this is tempting but I've been wanting an AMD card. I guess I'll see how things pan out over the next few day/weeks.

Why AMD? Have you got a freesync monitor?

AMD cards work better for me, dual booting and working in Linux etc, the work nicely everywhere whereas Nvidia cards have been a bit of a pain in the neck.

Have been looking to set up a full custom water loop anyway, so have pulled the trigger on an order for one of the regular (ha - unlimited edition) 64 cards. Sadly my card's fraud prevention algorithm kicked in and timed out the order, so I had to retry with another card, and I got an order number sometime around 14:45. I'm still waiting for my confirmation email and my order status is stuck at "Pending Quote". I called up OcUK and apparently there are a bunch of orders stuck with all the traffic, so hopefully it'll go through and not be yet another payment problem!

All sorted, RX Vega 64 Liquid Edition shipped

Hooray - my order has been received!
