Great Price on R9 280x, Should run and get it fast

SGTFulmer · Apr 21, 2014

Just throwing this out there, as I have 2 HIS R9 280x in crossfire, but there are some Gigabyte R9 280x's selling at Amazon right now for 195 dollars. Just thought someone on this forum would want to know.

They are up to 215 now, but hung out at 195 for a while. Even 215 is the best deal on a 280x Ive seen in a very long time.

That one is coming up as 356 for me.

Don't be fooled by Amazon's unbelievable low prices on certain items. Probably too good to be true. What will likely happen is they will send you the wrong item or you will never see your item because it will always be on back order.

Yea, and when you search "R9 280x" in the results it shows 280's and 270's. The 270's show up around 195 not the 280x's...
