About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
Customs duty may be charged on top of the headline price, usually on items costing more than £135 Information
Asian market graphics card which is supposed to be* about 80-90% the performance of an RX580 2048 (which itself is an Asian variant which is equivalent to an RX570) for 50% of the power.
With how energy prices are at the moment that trade off of losing a little bit of performance for a lot of power consumption might be a good option for people.
*Actually where I said supposed to be, I have both of these cards and my benchmarks were consistent with this.
You can only buy one of these, which is probably okay for most people, but I'm not sure if that's causing the price to display incorrectly for me now or if it's gone up since I bought one.
I'm really confused by the pricing on this. I bought one earlier and it's listed price was £46.36, and after tax and automatic discounts I was charged £44.86.
Now while trying to get details to post this deal the price was up to £54.37 and £59.22 after tax and discounts, but I'm not sure if that's because my discount voucher has been used.
Then I went back in and it was showing as £39.76 and £41.68 after tax and discounts. I clicked buy and it went though okay, but it's showing in my bought items at £59.22. I have a screenshot of it at £41.68 and I've cancelled my second order with reason that the buyer increased the price, of though I suspect the app is glitching.
The refund information is showing as £70.85 being refunded, with the amount I paid plus £11.63 being refunded to coupon.
So it might be an idea if someone who hasn't bought posts what price it's showing at.

sorted byBetter off spending a bit more for a used card like a GTX 1070 or RX 580 if you need a cheaper graphics card. And get it from Ebay where at least theres some local buyers protection. (edited)
On that deal there were also the usual naysayers (check their post history it's actually quite amusing) telling everyone to avoid but not actually adding any value to the conversation with little details like facts.
Yes it's a risk buying from aliexpress, yes do your own research, YES! when you grab that steal of a deal. (edited)
Works fine so far over HDMI, but not working on Display Port (saw someone else said this before I purchased). Going to take it for a spin now and see what the stats are.
I'm obviously not expecting 10 years of life or the same quality as a full spec - but as a temp fix as my other Graphic card broke seems a bargain.
On GTA V I set everything to very high and the benchmark gave me 50-70 throughout which is pretty good imo.
Do bear in mind that some people who haven't bought one of these before and/or who don't know anything about graphics cards don't like this item.
