Sadly, the box was still "sealed" with the circular translucent stickers - not that it means anything, I just feel this goes even more against my case.

I had this exact same issue with Amazon a while back. Bought an expensive 980ti from the marketplace on there and someone had swapped out the card for a much cheaper one. Amazon refunded me no quibbles but it was brown trousers time for a while, as I went through the same emotions as you, "how will they know I didn't just swap the card?" I wondered, seems like they just take your word on it. This must be happening loads, I guess unless you train all of your warehouse / return guys to spot the differences between all of the different graphics card variants, they are just gonna open the box when something is returned and go "yep there's the returned card". Shocking really.

Can mods unexpire this? It's back down at this price!

Thanks for response. May sell my 1070 then and keep this 1080.

lol your 1080 will only give you about 5-10% difference in fps. that's like 5-10 fps in current games.

Yes... About 30%. Bettef

Good news. A working 1080. Fingers crossed Amazon don't try to push the blame onto me.

Hi guys, I've received mine too. Just realised this is a very basic model GTX1080. Is this still better than my current boosted 1070 card pls?

ZOTAC ZT-P10700B-10P GeForce GTX 1070 AMP Extreme 8GB GDDR5 Graphics Card

just opened mine, it was sealed. opened it and a brand new GTX1080 was in there, so im good.

Hope so too!

Trouble is - if no-one else has had this problem, it's gonna look suspicious when I send it back. Hope that Amazon can verify it's not just me trying to pull the strings and get a free 1080 :disappointed:

I don't think it could be a customer return judging from the lack of yellow Amazon Warehouse stickering on it from the pictures.

I've also just checked the price of a HD4650; my god has this person taken the absolute p*ss.

Hope the new one arrives just fine. :wink:

Was dispatched and sold by Amazon. Contacted them and they are sending me a replacement, should arrive tomorrow. I feel like it was a customer return/dodgy supplier has done it and its ended up coming to me.

Just received mine... opened the box and there's a HD4650 in it. **** great.

Holy s... Just got mine today but haven't opened it yet, will update when i get home

Here's some I've cobbled together. Should've known it was dodgy from the ripped label on the outer packaging.

Hi guys, I'm new to the new gen graphic cards, have manage to get the card from this post and arrived today, but heard its very basic 1080 card with no boost. How does it compare to this 1070 boosted card please:

Thanks

I received my code to redeem the free game. Card should be with me Monday....

Ordered mine when it said "temporarily unavailable".. just got a confirmation email, should be here Thursday or Friday

No final price is what you see, it includes all the shipping costs and customs duties

do u still have to pay taxes if it's delivered to us?

457.36gbp

what will be the total price when it arrives to you, less than $500?

thanks bro i just wanted to see it confirmed. you da man!

ordered it to the US thats why you see a lower price (no VAT)

No idea, seems like a decent thing they've done, helped someone out.

Mine has shipped....now to sell my 980ti........

I put an order in thinking there's no chance this will be honoured but so far I've just had a notification it will be shipped a bit later.

new 1080 price it seems!

Mine was shipped, but i was one of the first ones to order

i wonder if this will get fulfilled.

Worth waiting as its rumoured to do 60FPS @ 8K and comes bundled with Star Citizen and Half-Life 3.

Good to know.

I've got a 980ti but taken a punt on this.

​1180 lmfao

Ordered one but not sure I can put up with a loud fan.

Gone from Amazon now at that price.

Scorcher of a deal!

I must resist buying this, though, because this single graphics card costs more than my entire build! :confused:

Ended

Out of stock

Wow that is hot. I'm sure we will see some listings of this card on eBay soon...

Great deal. Good value. Finally we are reaching a more realistic pricing point.

Good price but beware it gets got and noisy under load

"This GTX 1080 TURBO is a basic GTX 1080. The performances are good and in the expected range for a GTX 1080 but that’s all. The card has a cheap VGA cooler: at idle the noise is barely audible (good!) but under heavy load, the cooler is noisy (not good!!). And the 0dB fan technology we can find on other models? Not present… This kind of VGA cooler should not be there: it’s a GTX 1080 and a high-end graphics card based on a GP104 GPU deserves a decent VGA cooler." Guru3D

probably a miss price

Seems way too cheap but it's amazon selling it so may as well try.

John

I am trying so hard not to take amazon finance right now

Flamming hot, jeez extremely tempting to get but my R9 Fury will get jealous of being replaced so early :disappointed:

Damn good price

I'm out though, I'm waiting lol

Roasting hot.

bargain if not a misprice.
