RYZEN 5000 SERIES NOW ONLINE - 5950X, 5900X, 5800X & 5600X COMING NOV 5TH AT 5PM **NO COMPETITORS**

I think shortages have been over hyped, and that most people will get what they want. This won't be a repeat of Nvidia's nonsense.
 
Wont be buying from OCUK if i do buy tomorrow as they will be available at many other retailers for a lot cheaper.

But im tempted to wait to see if AMD do a combo deal with their GPUs in a few months after the initial sales surges on both.
 
It was until they started to use inferior internals a month or so back.

You mean changing the controller to a similar performing one? Inferior internals btw.

If you're spending that sort of cash, get a Gen 4 m.2 NVME drive
Ditch that RAM and get 3600 speed RAM. Ryzen loves fast RAM- DDR4 3600 stuff

I wouldn't buy a Gen4 m2 yet, wait until the new controllers are out before you splash.

I don’t think AMD will, but I’m sure OcUK will.

Just picked up a Sabrent Rocket gen3 2TB (the TLC non-Q) version for £161. My mobo only has one gen4 slot anyway, so a gen4 drive would be wasted on me anyway. It'll be fine for what I need and I could refer you to LTT's video on SSD comparison as why it probably doesn't matter in the real world anyway ;-)

I'm well aware on how M2's perform in games mate :p. Great price for that 2TB! I saw a 1TB Gen4 going on a certain marketplace for £109 recently.
 
Do you think there will be limited stock tomorrow and do they go online at 5 pm

i dont think its so much the stock its more the gouging. hopefully products are available at reasonable prices. will be interesting to see tomorrow. if there is low stock expect gouging and excuses.

Sorry, didn't mean to teach you to suck eggs. Video just made me chuckle!

Optimistic "make an offer" and "PRICE8" discount code FTW ;-) Was holding out for Black Friday, but this was never going to get bettered. I considered ponying for the gen4, but I'm very slack about upgrades so I'd be sure it would spend its whole life plugged into a gen3 slot, laughing behind my back :-)
