    Update: Just won an ebay auction for this:
    MSI Radeon RX 570 4GB Gaming X
    £86 including delivery.

    What do you all think?

    Might I suggest a password manager? You only need to remember a single password, the one to your main database.

    There's plenty of good free ones out there like Keepass 2.
    If you prefer a "cloud", browser based solution, there's LastPass, but those are usually Paid products.

    He kept to his word. He photographed it all. The front of the card. The rear. The side. The package process. The final box. He put the GPU inside a box it seems (didn't show that part) and that box went inside another box with bubble wrap.
    The photos aren't the best. But he did it.

    Here. I will show you the photos he sent me today except the final photo that has my address on the box. He sent one of the rear but as it has the serial number on it (not sure if that can be misused) I won't show it.

    Have to say though It is one ugly tacky looking card. Reviews state the PCB is huge and the heatsink too so apparently it runs super quiet. Which is going to be incredible coming from a dodgy (noise wise) 7870 that made LOTS of sound including a resonating shroud that made a buzzing sound.

    This MSI card also apparently runs super cool. Which is not something AMD are known for. So looks like I got an awesome card as long as it works.

    Ah I zoomed in on a photo he had uploaded for the listing as I remember spotting a GPU PCIE 4.0 box in it the other day. Realised it's a nitro + card. Watched an unboxing video of it and low and behold it is indeed the antistatic bag. How odd sapphire would use a bag that looks like this:

    This is EXACTLY what I was just about to post to that guy. I was gonna say how TF is a RX 470, a mid range card from 2016, the same in power as a 7870 mid range card from 2012?!!?!?!

    Are you saying that a 280x/380x is as powerful as a rx 470?
