Have been watching Hot Uk deals like a hawk for cheaper than this but cant see any for a 970. So on scan (its halfway down) I found this.
To buy at the totday only price you must click buy on that page, not the link page.
Oh and It comes with the free game, such as Assassins Creed too!
I was going to hold off but Fallout 4 recommended specs is (for nvidia) a GTX 970 and I cant find it cheaper, there is another one £4 more with a better fan thing on it but im not too fussed. I also got free postage otherwise its about £7.
Its a today only so maybe finished by this time tomorrow.
PS. the postage and the fact this has been cheaper is probably why it's cold

£7 postage too much doesn't seem to bad in this day and age (its actually not that much, basket total is only £245.47 inc P&P), what about those from likes of Aria or even Overclockers.
Last time I bought off Aria I ended up with shares in DPD plus Overclockers just as bad (dont buy a monitor at same time as something else or postage shoots right up) or Novatech who want to charge £14.99 to send a 8GB microSD card to Belfast, yet do offer some cheap alternatives to postage should you not want just Next Day
And never been as low as this price according to my search on this Site, Overclockers selling B Grade version for £229.99 was lowest

I looked a lot so couldn't fine it cheaper. If anyone else can let me know. Also anyone know anything about evga overheating due to misplaced cooling pipes

That's long gone, first released batch had this major flaw hence why now revised and labelled ACX 2.0. They fixed it rather quickly in beginning, internet seems to speak highly in all reviews for these cards though and EVGA have really good warranty.

been looking heavily into the FTW overclocked model and this is the cheapest so far. Hot!

Just a shame though that overclockers are the biggest shower of shizer going!. Aria have never let me down as yet though.
....to be fair Scan have been way ahead of both retailers in my experience. Can't recall ever having a parcel chucked in my dirty green wheelie bin by anyone other than Yodel / Dabs or the classic leaving the parcel on your front doorstep when you're out...again a Yodel special.
I guess these retailers won't learn until customers site these experiences as reasons why they've switched to another retailer.
Rant button off :smiley:

I've bought 2 of the card the strix version both for around £200 using top cashback and bespoke. but u think that has now expired.

Indeed, bespoke is no more unfortunately. Probably didn't help that they were recently offering over 15% cashback via topcashback (which fair play they honoured in my experience) and have previously done such offers as £10 Amazon vouchers for a fiver - with no means of properly regulating the offer and probably getting hammered to death by some of us greedy folk on here :stuck_out_tongue:

Can't recall any issues myself with DPD either. Overclockers have always been an arrogant bunch. I've dealt with them back in their earlier days and have had plenty of experience dealing with them at their trade counter (if you could call it that).
They used to be renowned for not looking after staff well; I guess it wasn't a surprise then that their after sales/ returns dept stunk like a damp skunk on a hot day.
Much prefer dealing with a company I feel I can trust and pay the carriage costs than save a couple of quid and feel totally shafted when it all goes TU!.

I'm sure the staff would have been milking it too. it would be bizarre if they didn't.

Next time your round at your Mother In Laws for Sunday dinner any chance you could do me a big favour and ask her to reinstate bespoke offers? :stuck_out_tongue:
Genuinely gutted. I actually used flubit a few times but had a couple of bad experiences so I switched to bespoke / beat my price instead. Fantastic service (albeit I was clueless helping to support flubit too by using bespoke :stuck_out_tongue: ).
Total shame for all concerned there, obviously more so the poor lot that face redundancy over it. That woman responsible should've been shown the door some time ago by the sounds....office politics at its finest there I suspect!.
