Utter rip off as one would expect from CPW sadly, these have been under £100 before. Even used 580s used to go for around £100. Also this card is very old now and won't give a great experience in the latest games even at just 1080P. Don't get conned...

Cheaper on Amazon

This is far too expensive, sorry. This model has been nearer £100 and the 8GB 590 is often around this price.

Yeah, BOX is well established, only ever heard good things about them on here. https://www.box.co.uk/blog/box-best-online-retailer-two-years-in-a-row

Assume you have experience with this site, I've never used them myself. Are they reliable?

Take a look at BOX, there are some decently priced laptops with IPS screen, at this price point. https://www.box.co.uk/laptops

I bought this exact laptop for my son on Black Friday 2019 from ebuyer via eBay for £315. If you put 3500U into the search you will see that such machines have regularly been £100-200 cheaper. This is very expensive for this particular model. It’s perfect for my son, plays fortnite at a respectable FPS and does everything fine. TN screen so viewing angles not the best. But £500 is way over the odds especially with 4500U machines now appearing. Sorry OP.

is this a good laptop?

It was not my intention to boast and I'm glad you're satisfied, I however was not. The RX 580 performs much better on paper than in real life. I use my GPU for simulation work, AI modelling, 3D design, rendering, and gaming, amongst other things. In all these areas, the RX 580 performed much worse than my previous GTX 980. I've no brand preference, and I love a bargain as much, if not more than the next person, but this is not a bargain. The reviews on Amazon will give you some indication of that. In my opinion, cheap hardware is a false economy.

Buy cheap buy twice doesn't really make sense in this market. It makes sense to buy at a certain price point and buy twice over a couple of years to ensure performance increases with advances. Either way you were complaining about a £150 gpu and boasting about buying a £400 gpu instead. It seems you would have been happy with a rx580 but spent 2.5 times more on something to do the same job. Not much of a bargain to me. - someone who is very satisfied with their rx 580.

My point being - buy cheap, buy twice. The RX 580 should've been on par with my GTX 980. As for the Punto, I owned one of those too once, and what a POS that was! So instead, I saved my pennies and now daily drive a 4 year old 450 HP competition spec Subaru (y)

Similar to how I bought a Fiat Punto that had issues with it's wiring, transmission etc. returned and replaced with a Ferrari 812 . Far superior...

Yes , sorry forgot to mention I also under volted. No issues with the card since I made these changes fingers crossed.

Great YouTube vid, I just seem 2b in between buying or holding on . The 5700 sounds good. Thanks again.

its what i call a T up of about 1.5... 5700 would be a 2T jump. Solid price, and product for cost. Qs lies in, if u wait u might get even better spec if u got a card, itll be some wait!.... - one could test the market to see how much ud get of the RX590...... prob upto £150 in this daft used market tbh, XT5600 have n are coming down so there be always one here on offer or just around the corner, so for u, id test that RX590 for a sale.. get good, then its worth the jump.

Thanks . Do you think it's a good improvement for the money ?. And what would a 590 go for £ .

Would this double the performance of my RX590 8GB ?.

970 is a nice card for 1080p

How many times faster than GTX 1070 is this?

It’s not me you need to tell bud.

I dont know much about this stuff but would it be worth me buying this to play new games such as warzone? this is my current PC specs: 2GB AMD RADEON™ HD7870 - DVI,HDMI,2 mDP - DX® 11, Eyefinity 4 Capable Intel® Core™i5 Quad Core Processor i5-3570 (3.4GHz) 6MB Cache 8GB KINGSTON HYPER-X GENESIS DUAL-DDR3 1600MHz, X.M.P (2 x 4GB KIT) just copy and pasted specs from when i ordered the PC

Thank you. If 970 is my best option, is eBay best bet? Will it be easy to find one under £100? Seems a bargain considering its not much worse than the 580 which all seem to be going at much higher prices.

its upto u, if u go 2600 one but want this case on the 3300x, speak to them. or if u want the "raider" with some dif type of RGB or, basic office type, there very reasonable for such edits..

Nope - top man - thanks. Have emailed them tonight to see what they can offer.

Yep, out the two i would go 2600 :-) anything else i can help u with?

I would likely be using it for streaming media, not so much gaming apart from Age of Empires/Football manager which doesn't involve much... So 2600 then?

Either this or the previous one. The 2600.. Intensive gaming cpu with increase ipc on a 4 core 8 thread aka 3300x Zen2 Vs 6 core, 12 thread, Ryzen 5 cpu, ZEN+ great multitask / streamer. 2600 A good pick.. Tbh at an rx580 there ain't alot either way.. The 3300x is a nice boost in gaming fps but only marginal for this GPU. But the other will handle all other applications better.. As time goes along for folks who dont upgrade that often the 2600 will do better as per market changes.

Are these chips good at playing 4K hdr 60fps. ? As I have an old intel i3 system but not to sure if just getting a gfx would be better or getting this. As I want to upgrade Kodi to play my 4K rips.

That's a pretty sweet price.

Good deal. Heat. It is buyer's job to check seller ratings and follow up with amazon if problems. No need for nanny state moderation

Many thanks.

SCAN is also offering it at the same price, if you have their free shipping perk.

If you trust a company that gives thousands of users issues with a £280 product for months after release i dont know what to tell you. Sure, the XTs are magically fixed, after the 5700 has been a nightmare for 8months.

I mean, in this thread, how many different people need to chime in before you believe them? 5 accounts in this very small thread about horrible first hand driver experiences. There's smoke. There's fire. Why bother? They are neck and neck with the 2060 regular for roughly the same price, based on who's on sale and who isn't. Why would ANYONE touch this bug riddled card?

Returned the GPU this morning, and now in market for a 1660 super (great value) or RTX 2060 if I can find one for around 300ish. The driver problems are not sorted out and if you want to go by "youtube reviewers" then you are welcome to burn your fingers like me. These so called experts havent a clue and they peddle unproven tech for sake of views and sponsorships.

when did you experience these issues? I've heard they've made updates to address all the driver problems.

I brought this card for £332 back in Jan and it been fawless. Normally silence and fan noise only kicks in when pushed. occassional see a black flicker maybe once or twice a month. currrently running a 1200 monitor, a 1080 monitor and a TV for netflix. currently got the latest 20.5.1 driver.

anyone know of when the new amd gpus are to be announced?

stupid isnt it, both the same % jump.

Hey I totally agree with you, I prefer nvidia cards but the 2070 is nearly £300 more and it performs the same or similar. It's madness that I paid £499 for my 2070 in november.

Rtx 2070 super, i paid £499 for my msi gaming x in November and the same card is now £650!

"It's the fastest integrated GPU there is cough Cough (not virus related) Intel skull Trail VEga-m gfx , also AFAIK the mobile APUS, eg 4800HS might beat this. I like these chips tho as everything is in one package .. Waiting to see what the 4000 is like, see if the mid-range APU can outgun an GTX960. ALso would like to see the low wattage versions GE.

I’m inclined to agree that this CPU has been made a bit redundant at this price, kneecapped by the 1600 AF on the cheaper side and 3300X on the pricier side. Yes you will need a discrete GPU but as mentioned refurb RX 570s have been around the £70-80. If you absolutely must go for an APU, the 3200G is the more compelling option with a view to a GPU upgrade in the future. But as also mentioned, you’re probably better waiting to see what the new gen APUs look like. Even then, AMD are always likely to artificially limit what their APUs can offer on the graphics side; given Nvidia dominate the high end GPU market and AMD mainly competes in the low to mid range, all the AMD APUs would be doing is stealing sales from their own GPU division. In short: this is a good price, but only go down the APU route if you really have to.

It's ironic really, my dual system case is pretty huge but the ITX area is still a bit cramped. I could go non APU but then it means paying for a riser cable, a basic gfx card, and aftermarket low profile/AIO cooling as the standard Wraith cooler wouldn't fit. A good Ryzen 4000 APU would makes things much easier... ;)

Yes, that's understandable. It's a good chip in it's own right but you are essentially paying extra for those graphics - makes sense if you're trying to do an ITX build or cheap gaming system with minimal parts and clutter. Looks like you'll have the options for huge gains with 4000-series - extra cores, more efficient, etc. I've had Intel until recently but AMD has literally taken the chip world by storm - back in 2016 when they announced Zen I don't think anyone believed them after years of horrible Bulldozer rubbish, this is basically their equivalent to Intel's Core 2.

Used to be around £110 - cold From me as you can have 3600 for £139...

I changed the hdmi cable based on the comments on this thread and it seems to have fixed the issue. Just fyi for anyone reading this in the future, looks like this card didn't have the issue I thought it did

in theory yes, most of the gap between the 5700 and the xt version can be covered with a bios update. But the one I got (asrock challenger) doesn't have dual bios so I'm not very comfortable doing that now and I don't think I really need this extra boost in performance for the stuff I play at the moment. I'll do some research and perhaps give it a go in few months.

Can you flash the 5700 with a 5700xt bios to get similar performance?

I went from a gtx 770 to a 8gb AMD card and got black flickering, sometimes losing picture. GTX 1660 was similar until I changed the cable, so far so good.

I'll look into that. Never experienced the issue with a 1060, but maybe it's a bandwidth thing, and I'm just pushing way more data because the card can handle it

Got to say I got a RX580 Nitro 8gb and the same... all good. Great seller and I hear they have great custiemr service too

I've had an rx470 from them with screen artifacts and a fan failure on an rx570 from them in one month. all luck I guess but don't expect yours to last too long. At least they have a good returns service

I was considering a Nitro+ 570 because it was so cheap... hope they get some more :/

If you bought this for £200.00 recently you should have messaged me I have some brand new £15.00 pound notes i can let you have for a tenner each.

real-time distribution... looked brand new, even stress tested it and its fine.
