  • Does this qualify for the Batman promotion?

    • +2

      Batman promotion has not launched in the AU region yet. Until it does we do not know what cards come with it and what sales periods apply. Edit - if it launches in AU

      • Thanks Rep! I already own the witcher 3 and was hoping some info on there might get me to bite the bullet. My 560 ti is getting on

  • Do you have 2 in melbourne for pickup today? I think i'm worn down.. going to replace 2x 7970s with 2x 970s.. $440/ea, finding it hard to resist..

    • Certainly do!

    • Really? Seems like a complete waste of money unless you can get a good price for the 7970s. Performance increase would be negligible..

      • I'm done with AMD.. More specifically, AMD drivers have a bug where I cannot play my Oculus Rift and DCS modules ..

        • Ah righto, that makes sense then. I thought it was just a performance thing. AMD drivers are dodgy at best unfortunately :(

        • +2

          It's actually the other way around. It's game devs that aren't coding properly and AMD/Nvidia have to write new drivers to address bugs/performance issues introduced as a result.

          This doesn't change anything of course, just putting it out there. It's the way of the industry (unfortunately).

    Getting more and more difficult to say "no" to these video card promotions that's been on OZB lately. I'll have to keep strong until the new 300x series comes out.

    • +1

      I keep adding to cart then closing the browser. I may crack soon…

    • Just a heads up, all the 300 cards are rebrands of the 200 series except for the 390x which will be far more expensive than a 970 since it's supposedly meant to rival titan x performance. It's also going to be AMD's flagship model.

      With that being said it's still a rumor and not 110% confirmed, but reliable sites have come out and said it is based upon these rumors.

    PLE are bloody great!
    I recommend them each time someone needs something for their computer, and generally cheaper than PCCG. <3

  • +3

    How much PSI are they running?

  • So will this card work with an external PCIx16… Holder?
    I have a I7 2640 and 8gb ram Sony Z2.
    They have used mpcl to PCI cable and no issues with GTX 780.
    THis card be bottlenecked by CPU or cache of laptop?
    http://forum.techinferno.com/implementation-guides-pc/2158-1…

    • +1

      At 1080p the CPU would bottleneck IMO, even with a 780. 970 isn't significantly faster than a 780 anyway.

      • Yeah, I have a 780 and I wouldn't upgrade to a 970. My next upgrade would either be a cheap 980 or the next 3XX.

    • Wow, didnt know that we can use external VGA Card for laptop @.@
      technology is really amazing!

      • technology is really amazing!

        Don't say things like that. You'll make people who work in IT cry.

        • by crying, u mean tears of joy? ^^

  • How this model compares to the Gainward Phantom ?

  • Any shipping discounts for nsw?

  • Is this in stock in Wangara currently? Website is suggesting it's not.. Thanks.

  • How is the Witcher 3 game claimed as I can't find anything about it on the Asus site.

  • Any reviews of this edition? Looks pretty interesting but I wish the deal would last a bit longer.

  • It's s more entry level card than the asus strix witch is $444aud delivered from amazon at the time of this post.

    • And how did you determine this is an entry level card(not sure how a $400+ card can even be entry level but I'll go with it) when it has only just been released?

  • Sweet, perfect timing as I was waiting for this card to be released, and was looking for a special on your site. Was going to buy it for $489, but for $439 I'm sold! Ordered it and a new motherboard for an upgrade for my HTPC :-)

  • How much performance difference would there be compared to a GTX 970 STRIX?

    • Not Sure until some reviews come out. the strix has better cooling for most situations maybe not for SLI?. and higher core and boost clock speeds but it would only translate into a marginal difference.

  • What's interesting is that the Turbo only has 1 8 pin power port.. So you might be a bit limited in any OC'ing potential as it's pretty lean on power..

    And 2x 970s is definitely a big improvement over 2x 7970s..

    • So does the Strix though? Just compared them on the Asus website, and only real difference I could find is a slightly faster core clock, and the Turbo is a bit shorter.

      • Yeah… you're right.. I just can't believe how power efficient these cards are… and how quiet they are..

        Also, this card isn't on the asus Witcher 3 promo site.. so maybe it's going to get the batman/witcher 3 promo after all..

        • Well the PLE rep did say

          ASUS have confirmed they are eligible for Witcher 3 Promo even though it does not yet say it on the redemption page.

          So not sure if it'll get Batman, but will get Witcher 3. Do any of the cards in Australia get Batman? I've only seen that apply to cards in the US?

  • Two of these or a Titan X…

  • Is the promo code still working? It won't give me the discount when I tried putting it on the shopping cart…

    • +1

      Works for me.. perhaps you need to enter a postcode first..

      • Thanks buddy, as you said :D cheers……. now the waiting game :p

        • Waiting?

          They're pretty sweet cards.. can't believe how efficent they are (only 1x 8 pin power), quiet and small they are..

        • @Vladdo:
          Waiting to get delivered :p will prolly have it by tomorrow, can't wait to slap this puppy in my gaming rig :) bye2 my old GTX470 :D

          I read good reviews abt this card hopefully nvidia won't be a pain in the neck by releasing new cards with new architecture :P
