X850XT Platinum Edition PCIe Video £264 from Dell [CLOSED]

*** link removed by Board Guide (please see here for explanation) ***

Another Dell misprice ;)
The link above is where to Get a X850XT Platinum Edition PCIe Video card For Just £264:96 Including Postage and VAT Brand new!!

Its available from Dell Large business so when you order you will need to spoof a business name and call Dell after ordering to confirm the order.

You will recieve a PDF file within a few days and the card should be with you within a week.

Its a kit so should include a power supply cable and cd.

This does work, I ordered last week and expect delivery Monday.

Be quick though as they will pull this when they get lots of orders as its only just over trade price.

edit by Board Guide: the corrected link is here
All Dell'd up ;) several times over :)

    Good price, though personally I'd never spend that much on a graphics card. It's only computer games :)

    Nice find :D

    They are over £350 normally, I think Dell quoted the trade price by mistake.

    2 on ebay are bin at £365 and above.

    Thanks to all who post constructively.

    ave an A1 day!
  • whats the link please ?
  • Thing to remember here is that these cards from Dell are OEM... This means no VIVO or any other extras (HDTV out etc)... Just for game playing it's great.. but don't compare directly to some of the retail cards...

    Outputs are I think you will find on the Dell cards one VGA+DVI+TVo

  • That's correct... but the Tvo is only S-Video... on the retail cards you have many more options.... just my 2 pence... as i fell for this when i bought a complete system from dell... only to find out after several calls they stripped this card down to its OEM bones...

    But as said earlier.. if you're just after game playing this is a great spot by MikeT..
  • Thanks MikeT

    placed my order.
    first time dell order,so i hope i can still get it as it was under the section upgrades for your dell. ( which i dont have) i have an "own built" system

    cracking card for the price, dabs want £3.08+ delivery for the same spec card ( connect 3d), but its never in stock.

    Video in on the same card is £10 more.
