Damn good upgrade for £10 if anyone feels a bit left behind in the graphics card department of late.

Tiny URL?

Look at the state of the URLs the PC World store uses :p

I just copied the link from somewhere else anyway, hence just using the same one.

Just noticed after Luke asked on SPS, a pair of these in SLI (£21 ish) will perform about on par with an 8800GTX. That's exceptional value.

Just tried it out and nowhere vaguely local has it, by that I mean nowhere within Scotland at all apparantly but it's a great deal if you can get it.

//edit I'm still on AGP too but if I could have got the card for that price I'd probably take the plunge and upgrade.

Almost, my PC upstairs that still works is running a TNT 2 32mb AGP. :D

Tried about 10 major towns and nowhere seems to have it.

They're probably all gone now, after all, a £100 graphics card for £10 isn't something that's likely to stay on shelves for long.

The purpleshirts nab them before they even get to the shelves.

Well, you say that but i'm not sure if these deals are actually available in store.

I went to my local one yesterday and literally nothing was on offer bar a table of old USB cables and ex-display screens etc. yet the Collect@Store deals online were a lot better.

The staff have computers to use to order them online and pick up in store though.

True but a lot more effort than just grabbing everything cheap off a shelf before shoppers get there isn't it? :p

And they'd be in exactly the same position as the public with respects to what PC World were charging on their site compared to in store.
