£70.65 @ Pacetech. Similar price at a few select retailers as well.
Same company that delivered a few RX 480 8GB for £153.61 a few days ago.

I ordered the RX480 but they ran out of stock, they sent me an email stating that they gave me £5 off next purchase, so I got this card for £65. Check your emails if you ordered the RX480 the other day.
Does the bios mod work on the model on offer though? It appears the bios is for specific brands only

If you scroll down it gives you a listing of all the different models and if they have been confirmed unlock-able this one is listed as confirmed unlock-able with a link.

i know its not going to give you VR gaming and it's only 2gb, but that is plenty for most games and at £70 this is a steal!

I have the 4 gig version which is going into my new build. I'll be integrated to see how it plays at 1080p, apparently very well for a£100 card. Hopefully it unlocks to, it's a sapphire model

all the price drops for various cards make me hopeful that the RX490/500 isn't too far away

Yep, gone back up most places. Seems this is the cheapest now at about £77 shipped:
Hopefully someone gets one, expired as price now back up to £104.54 as pointed out by rav4cas.

Sadly that doesn't mean much as there are so many revisions and variables to take into account. I can say for certain that it does NOT work for the card I received in this deal. Shame really.
And also for anyone thinking of trying this - make sure to check the product name/ID listed in the stock bios matches or is at least very similar to the unlocked bios as there are a number of reports of soft bricking with this card.

For £10-£20 more I would have bought the 1050 - but it's never been available at that sort of price so not sure what you're trying to say?
£36 more for a 1050 (cheapest it's ever been) isn't so appealing.
Also, from what I've seen, if you are lucky enough to unlock the extra shaders on the 460, and add a small OC, it'll match or even beat out the 1050 in a number of DX12 based games, so value for money is potentially amazing (but still good regardless).

would buy GTX 1050 for the extra 10-20 quid
