This is not a deal so I don't care for voting but it's just a heads up for people who want the card to secure one via pre order from Amazon. This card is the Black Edition and with boost clocks hits 5.92 teraflops of compute power. Both cards ship today but I went for the Black Edition OC as it's the fastest 480 at launch and with boost clocks it is rated at 6.11 teraflops + it has a backplate on it. If anyone is interested in that model it is £222.99 also from Amazon. Hope this helps someone out.

How many clueless idiots browse this site. The price is as expected it has nothing to do with the exchange rate get a grip. They did not buy the stock after Friday. Honest to God never read so much deluded nonsense, including amd with their ridiculous performance.

That was for the 4GB version and will be without VAT.
8GB 480 has a RRP of $229, 4GB at $199.
$229 + 20% (our VAT rate = $274.8 )
$274.8 current rate according to Google = £206.62
Not exactly an economy breaking difference. :wink:

I'm not entirely sure people understand how businesses work.
If you think that UK businesses bought this stock in the last few days based on the current exchange rate...well....I got nothing.

Ordered vs £400 for a 1070. Performance is on par with a 970 apparently

You can't compare the RX 480 to the GTX 1070. They are made for different markets.

I don't know if you are joking but it was never going to be £150 that was people directly converting the US pricing which never happens
