AMD BLACK FRIDAY / CYBER MONDAY: ACTIVE TOMORROW 8am with 1800X under £300!!

[GoogalyMoogaly]

Yes because that's how prices work at the high end, isn't it?

I wouldn't call 1030 high end

But people seem very worried about price and performance when you start talking about 1080s, Vegas and 1080Tis.

Are there going to be any Nvidia black Friday deals?

Really tempted by the Ryzen CPUs and getting a cheap £80ish motherboard...

My FX8350 is really starting to show it’s age

If you can afford the ddr4 prices, do it

Just checked them, there insanely expensive! Shame, there more than double the price of the ddr3 8gb set I bought 5 years ago for my current build.

Do you think it’s worth buying a cpu and putting it away until the ram prices come down? I like a bargain and refuse to pay silly money for components

If it were DOA you'd never know and you'd waste your warranty, so I wouldn't recommend that.

Market speculation says RAM prices will continue increasing until Summer 2018.
One hopes they are wrong, but so far the speculators have being pretty spot on for past year, it just keeps going up and up.

But what if the manufacturers are setting the price based on the speculation

You must break the cycle, kidnap the speculators and make them predict low ram prices.

Well its more to do with lack of supply, some of my orders are not being fulfilled until 4-6 weeks later, so there is very tight supply and when demand outweighs supply, the manufacturers charge more and the supply situation won't improve until Q2 next year at present.

We have 8G at £75, 16G at £139 and 32G at £239 in our Black Friday section, that is like the cheapest in the UK, even better its quality stuff. The prices are only going to get higher on DRAM unfortunately in short term future.

 

[Gibbo]

VEGA is nearly sold out, look at competitors, were like over £100 cheaper than elsewhere, once these are gone we don't have much scope for finding more, it will be custom cards next month which so far are more expensive.

 

[Rezident]

Was looking for a liquid vega at a decent price, nice one.

 

[Gibbo]

Added some NVIDIA GPU's, mainly Zotac and Inno3D, stock is quite short so the prices may not last long, I suggest you go take a peek if your on the look out for something green.

Might just have to take the plunge, cheers Gibbo

Cracking service once again, LC Vega 64 in, and working fine

Was looking for a liquid vega at a decent price, nice one.

Can't say no at £599, its cracking
