GTX 1080 for £400 after £43 back seems good and the free pc code is available with it. No credit agreements like some of the very deals.

MSI are desperately trying to shift the stock of all their cards, as they are one of AMD's biggest card manufacturers, they obviously know something about the RX Vega range with regards to price vs. performance. I can imagine they are trying to mitigate larger losses by off loading stock now before the price tanks.
Heat for the deal. :smiley:

They've got the GTX 1070 at £300 too - making it basically the same cost/CUDA core.

Actually, no.
MSI are offloading their old stock because there is a new version of the 1080 hitting shelves.
The 1080 posted in this deal is the 10 Gbps GDDR5x memory. The new ones will be 11 Gbps.
But more importantly, with improvements come cost savings to manufacturers as they iron out the process.
So the new 1080s, with better GDDR5X ram will be priced the same as the current 1080s, and who would buy a 1080 revision 1, when revision 2 is just better?

While there's no much difference with AIB OC capabilities, I'd really not recommend a blower for a card of this pedigree.

For small ITX or MATX cases blower cards are the best option as they push the hot air out of the case instead of around the case.

Trueno - I recently bought a b250 mobo in the last cashback claim. You have to wait 30 days after purchase, then you complete the online form here;
They will ask you to send a copy on the invoice and the serial number of your product. They confirmed I was eligible for cashback within a few hours and notified me i would be paid in 30 days. Received an email on Wednesday saying my bank account would have the money transferred via BACs in 5 day - got paid the same day.
Simples - A lot more so than trying to get cashback on a dell server this time last year!
