What about this deal guys n gals??

[fusion1275]

Just been emailed this deal - Not sure what "AMP" might be on a gfx card though. Anyone shed any light on this???

If its a deal and a bargain for my new system (please see new rig plans) then give me the nod and I will purrr-chase 2 tomorrow after work )

Cheers for your help

Not too bad at all!

The AMP probably means it is factory overclocked.

[deathwish]

yea it the overclocked version

[fusion1275]

So do I get them or shall I go for maybe the more expensive versions and overclock myself? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The AMP version is pre overcloked, hence faster than the non AMP version and is £40 cheaper.

That doesn't make any sense business wise lol. 700/1700/2000 is a good oc and u will still be covered by the warranty at those speeds.

After a quick search the cheapest 8800GT 512mb I could find was £100 for a Club 3D @ stock speeds, so £5 more for a pre overclocked version is good.

The 8800GTS 512mb is the card up from the 8800GT 512mb and the cheapest I can find that is £137.63 + p&p for a Zotac 8800GTS 512mb AMP Edition (only a quick search).

Well it is looking to me that I am going to be the proud owner of 2 new gfx cards later this afternoon.

[!TIMMY!]

Which 2 are you going for? U going SLI then?

[fusion1275]

Im going for the already AMP'd version from Novatech and yeah going all SLI'd up too.

Good or bad idea??

[!TIMMY!]

I find that This VGA Chart is great for comparing graphics cards including SLI, you can compare 8800GT 512mb OC SLI against a 8800GTS 512mb OC for example.
