Black friday deals?
- Thread starter simon.deighton
- Start date
Oh our Black Friday deals won't be on products which do not sell. They shall be already on hot selling products, but with prices that will shock the market, causes huge complaints from competitors about OcUK's pricing and how did we do it.
Just like last year the stuff will fly of shelves and we will probably do about 1M GBP revenue in a day again.
Credit cards around the country are quaking in fear
Whens it all going to kick off
++ Although have to be some rather amazing deals, since the postage kills most deals for me.. unless you guys do a one of during this time and have free delivery for loyal forum members outside of UK as well..
Whens it all going to kick off
The plan is as follows:
Next Wednesday This Week ONLY will be Black Friday themed and all products which go on THIS WEEK ONLY next Wednesday will have no further discounts applied to them, so you can buy in confidence.
Then around 9am Thursday we shall put 50-60 insane super Black Friday deals live with savings of upto £1000 or 50% discount. Stock will be limited to 10-300pc of each item, first come first served basis. Idea being if you order before 11am you can actually get your super black friday deal by Friday.
These deals will remain live until 6pm Monday or when they sell out, which comes sooner.
Then on CYBER Monday we shall launch an incredible X99 bundle that saves you hundreds of pounds from buying the items seperately.
We will clean up, SIMPLES! Snooze and ya lose! SIMPLES!

I'd jump but it's terrible timing for me, rather wait for pascal / AMD's next series. Might buy general stuff like monitors anyway.
In regards to what you can get around that price then 390x / 390 are the best options realistically. They offer overall better performance / price, have 8gb vram and it's also going to leave that extra money for other bits. Freesynch monitors tend to be cheaper than gsynch along with having some attractive ones at 1440p / 4k. For me Nvidia is fine if you've got plenty of cash to throw around but realistically the AMD side is going to provide a lot more options for monitors and the gpu's at the price you're looking at make them ideal too.

Yeah, I am holding out for next lot of GPU's, my 290 still performs very well @ 2560x1080 and the only thing worth upgrading to would be a 980ti
Any hints as to what the x99 bundle will be in terms of price (originally) or/and what is included?
I am wanting a new CPU, motherboard and 16GB RAM but not wanting to go above £500 very max, would prefer to keep it around £400-450 mark, my options with current pricing are i7 4690k or i5/i7 skylake

Pretty sure it would be 50% discount comparing to the RRP, rather than the current average retail prices in the market

Not giving any hints sorry, but it will be over £500 even with discount. GET SAVING!
Was excited by the deal till you've said this, unless some of the higher end motherboards or DDR4 is being used in this bundle you can already buy them separately for just over £500. I expect it's a 5820k as well.
