RX 480 4GB not anywhere? I need a link!

[MobyX521]

Hello all! I was originally going to buy the GTX 950, but ever since the launch of the RX480, I've wanted to get that, and on videos I've seen in the past, people talk about a 4gb edition for $200 (Which is exactly what I want!) However, I can only find 8gb editions available for closer to $300! When will a 4gb edition be availible?!

There is a shortage of them likely due to the memory issue (many 4gb cards actually have 8gb on them because of production issues), I managed to get one, the store I got it from had 2 vs 30 8gb cards. They should become more prevalent soon but you may have to wait a week or two.

The prices are inflated by retailers because supply at initial release on 29th has been sold out.
If you really want one I would recommend checking several times a day over the next 2 weeks and you should see them start coming back in supply , perhaps with a $10 supply shortage premium attached. Also of note, I read an article that says the 4gb 480's might be bios unlockable to 8gb versions.... obviously proceed with caution and research but that would be sweet deal for 200 dollars.
