    European model graphics cards?

    http://www.waeplus.co.uk/product/283...n-HD-7870-OC--

    A 7870 for £179 seems a bit of a bargain, what are the implications of this being a 'european model'?
    Anyone ever used this company?

    No implications for graphics cards. If it was a PSU it would come with a Euro plug.

    I wouldnt use WAE at all.

    May be cheap, but the stuff may never arrive.

    I did have reservations about the company which is why I asked, I knew that price was too good to be true.

    on the listing page that you posted for that graphics card they have 2 comparison links for amazon. one of them is only 18 quid more and sold by amazon themselves.

    sounds like a better more secure deal to me.
