It's not overclocked at all though CPU or RAM..

There is a overclocked version that is only available directly from Corsair and even that only has 2400mhz ram. I assume that the versions with a 7700k will be overclockable as well seeing as they have a Z270 board unless they have locked the bios. It seem's rather overpriced for what it is to me.

Most review sites have said the same. Then there are a few that have taken the time to look at the retail price of all the individual components and they are totalling up to aruond £200 under the corsair price. So is the case + assembly worth £200? to me yes, i'd pay £200 for it barebones. we don't really see the true costs of our systems when we build them individually.

Buy they can bulk buy the parts and not pay the extra so buying single units of things.

So idk, double it to £400?

hmmm, not sure i would at £400 but i don't have the option to bulk buy so doubling is unfortunately not relevant to my situation - might be to lucky others though! i guess thats where corsair and other system builders do win out. Is there anything comparable spec wise on the OC site?
