I’ve been looking for this or the gigabyte mini card to come down for a while for a mini ITX build. Cheapest I’ve seen it for a while, although may be due to the rumours of the 1070 Ti.

Tempted at this price but I'll probably regret it once the 1070ti is released at the end of the month.
I also have a Freesync monitor so my next upgrade should actually be a custom Vega 56 or 64 instead but can't see those being very cheap.

Also waiting on the Ti but this is a great price.

Time travel aside, the gigabyte was £300ish from amazon france six months or so ago.

Nice, the longer we all wait, the better. lol
If this were £290 i might grab one today, that is my comfort zone for video cards as i can't justify anything more above that as bang for buck disappears as the price goes higher because my old 970 is just to damn good at running everything. lol

dropping in price everywhere best bet now is to hold off

Don't do it, it runs hotter than the sun.
Mine lasted a day before I sent it back. Ran hotter than my old R9 290x! The EVGA card I replaced it with runs 30-40 degrees cooler and at higher clocks.

i think the ti uses gdr5 memory so this will probably be better all round as its a good mining card.
