    Not wanting to sound ungrateful or anything and really appreciate the return of the forum deals, but your already low prices make this not such a great deal.

    I'd rather pay the extra £16 and get the ASUS DC2 560ti tbh.

    More appropriately £30 extra will net you a 7850, not to mention these have been on a well known deal site all week (for a few months now, actually) save a few pounds here and there.

    Edit: Only 5 out of the 46 replies in the 'name your deal thread 'mentioned GPU's as well, only one of those being the card in question which in itself was an 'either/or'.

    Weird isn't it?
    These cards were THE cards to buy a few months ago. Suddenly, the new AMD cards and promise of a 660Ti around the corner and these don't shift at all.
    Even at this price (which is a bargain BTW), there has not been any interest yet.......

    Yeah currently it is the cheapest, but yesterday Asus DC2's were going for £129.99.

    Still very nice to see the deals back again

    3770K for next week ?

    I think it would of been better to have something that most people could use, be it more storage, more ram, even a case but a last generation GPU? Hmm...

    This is a good price, just not as great as I was hoping for. If it was the Twin Frozr II version, then we'd be talking.

    would very much like to get it. but I'm saving up now seeing that I'll be a fulltime job-hunter in a month (who came up with the £%$@&%# idea of fixed term contract btw?). need to postpone my plan for a replacement phone and graphic card. borrowed a 8800gts from a mate, hope there's another sweet deal like this after I got a new job. finger-crossed that's not a long wait!

    Perhaps graphics weren't the best thing to open with especially as most people here have equal or better. Hopefully the next deal will go a little better :-) on a side note please don't make it a modular psu cos I want it but just can't afford one atm :-(

    Yeah I need a new case.

    My Antec 900 Gamer case is doing my head in. No place to hide the cables and with crossfired GPUs it just looks a mess, even my SSD is just hanging inside the case I dont even have it fixed to anything.

    Also RAM would sell, most people could add more RAM, even if they dont really need to (like me) but just dont bother as the prices are a bit steep atm. Put some decent Mushkin on their for £35 and Im yours baby.

    Id say most of the loyal forum members (which is your market here) will already have decent graphics cards, if they are gamers. The 560ti is now second gen, still a good card, and this is a very good deal price wise but wrong market.

    I guess some people might want one to SLi if they have one already.

    Sorry that sounds ungrateful, but I am glad these forums deals are going I will keep an eye on them for sure.

    Just got my Asus 448 cores at £137 the other day. This is not bad comparing to some other sites but still worth to get 560Ti now? They will drop further when 660 is about to come. Dont know what AMD will do as the gap between 7770 and 7850 is so big. 7850 should be the best value card atm.
