So my i7 920 box standard will not bottle neck BF3 if i had 2x 6950s? As opposed to having a i5 2500k?

With a multi gpu setup and a stock cpu, you may find the cpu being a bit of a bottleneck in a few games. 3.6ghz would be a nice sweetspot, on pretty low voltage for cooler running.

Pitty you didn't post this a month ago. It's too late to redeem the voucher now because you don't get the voucher until the 30day trial is up. Some people have had the voucher 2 weeks into the trial, but again, it's still too late if you want BF3 on time

It's still worth carrying on with the trial though because it's £20 for free at the end of the day. That could go towards Batman AC

I did this and i got the voucher on the 2nd day, as it says you will get it after your first disc has been sent out and you have 10 films on your list. I am using mine for Skyrim though as i have already preorded BF3.

I'm doing it now as well.

Did the trial ages ago for a £20 voucher for another store and had to email them once I'd received my first disc as they hadn't sent the voucher. They sent the voucher straight away after the email though.

That's good news then. Being as i've already bought stuff in the past with amazon and i've got an order with them at the moment for BF3, I'm hoping they will send my voucher before BF3 is released. Fingers crossed.

Those ordering this from OcUK are gonna be disappointed I think:

"(Please note this is an item which is not available until November. Please order seperate or this could cause a problem with current orders being held.)"

Err..?

That's a flippin' joke. Unless they're telling people who order the game on the day it comes out not to expect it until November. That'd make more sense.

Otherwise I'll cancel my pre-order now..

I like how that note is put below the images requiring you to scroll down to see it.

Indeed. I wonder why its not available until Nov, seems a bit strange

Mind PMing me where from pal?

Didn't one of the OcUK staff come on and reassure people it'd make it in time for release day? Maybe they've just run out of their preorder allocation.
