Seen that Centrecom is selling the XFX 7970 Black Edition Dual Dissipation Version for cheap price… cheaper than the 7950 BEDD or 7970 DD / 7970 BE

EDIT: bring your jumping shoes and tissues- Online ordering with centrecom is a very disappointing experience x2 !!!!
Lack of email updates mean status changes without your knowledge, at one stage they wanted my license before confirming Paypal payment, ATM it says awaiting stock ***do not dispatch - awaiting email from customer - WTF??? first i heard of an email requested from me. to make it worse cannot contact anybody by phone must email and there email responses are few and far between. Delay Delay Delay.., So it looks like I order mine 2 days before everyone else and it hasn't moved from there warehouse - even worse they might have sold the 17 they confirmed they had and now waiting for more supplies before fulfilling my order. Horrible Experience

Black Edition:
XFX uses its "GPU Edging" process to identify the top 1% of overclockable GPUs which go into the Black Edition video cards.

Dual Dissipation:
XFX claim that DD will be 7 degree's cooled and 13 dba quiter… than what i dont know - but reviews seem positive. pretty much its a better cooler to help with OC'ing you BE GPU.

AMD promotion: 3 Free Games for any 7950/7970 Radeon
-FarCry 3 (Uplay code / Not on Steam)
-Hitman Absolution (Steam Code)
-Sleeping Dogs (steam Code)
-20% off Medal of Honor Warfighter (It's obvious)

Other Features:
Lifetime Warranty* - correct me if i am wrong (this is the twin fan version BE edition)
Black Edition Membership……
Cool Case Badge

*From my reading this product is cover by lifetime warranty IF you register your warranty card within 30 Days of purchase - if you fail to do this it will be a 2 or 3 YR warranty

Similar pricing available on New Egg although will require rebate and extra for postage.

  Just finished lodging a complain with consumer affairs. I suggest everyone else also effected should do the same.

  These bastards lied to me several times on the phone, I'm not gonna stand for this type of treatment.

      because clicking reply once is such a hard thing to do to keep the thread clean…

      You wont get RSI from clicking it once

  Just cancelled my order!! The cards are probably going to plummet in price soon.

    Ordered the same XFX 7970 from PLE Computers on the 19/12/2012.

    Received it today!! (21/12/2012).

    Much better than Centrecom and support is a thousand times better! Not a bunch of dead monkeys on the phone.

    Did I mention that it was $16.58 cheaper delivered?

    PLE +1 from me!

      Sure it was the same card? Theres a fair few XFX 7970's around.

      According to the site, you wouldn't have got the Black Edition. Just the Double Dissipation.

        Actually, It doesn't mention BE!

        So may be I missed out on the dark side!
