10900k Price Hikes

[Mr Oblong]

Very much so.

Surely if Intel increase their prices, we can all agree the Zen 3 pricing isn't great?

still going up lol

 

[Hades]

Why would anyone buy that?

 

[subbytna]

Probally upped the price for when the new AMD CPU's released to make them look premium, then put them on some sort of scam sale at same price as Ryzen, trying to pretend they are a good deal lol.

To put on a sale, they legally have to have had the higher price for at least 3 weeks. Currys do this all the time, argos too

ocuk apparently buy in advance, at a certain rate, this smacks of gouging. With lots of people now back in lockdown, they put prices up for people buying to work again from home. Just my two cents.

I think your spot on. Black Friday is what 3 weeks basically away now or just over.

So will wait and see.

10850k is still the way to go if you really want intel .. unless you want to overclock... 10900k seems to be the better option as it is higher binned chip

Yeah, value wise the 10850k is the one.

You get a code over email when you buy the avengers edition. You can claim that code on Intel's site for a steam key. Just like previous Intel offers really.

that has only value if you really want to play that game.. not the best game out there

 

[HeatSink]

Yeah, the game is trash from what I've seen online. I claimed my code but didn't bother installing it.

 

[Chaos666]

you may try selling it to get some money back

i think lots of places do that just the way it is sadly !

10900k back down in price, amazing that it's just cleared xmas at the higher price.
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/inte...ocket-lga1200-processor-retail-cp-67w-in.html
£479.99 as opposed to over £600 for the marvel and non marvel versions.

10850k back down in price as well.

So is it the xmas price gouge or AMD cpus battering sales that has affected the bloated price?

 

[Roadrunner_668]

not bad not bad but thats still a fair bit more pricey than amd chips that perform similarly is it not ?
