** 8 PACK BUNDLE: 6700K OC, AIO, ASUS HERO, 16GB 3000MHz & MORE FOR £499.99 (£270 SAVING) **

So the memory has more than doubled in price?


Our cost on the memory kit has increased by £25 exc vat, so that is £30. This is due to memory prices increasing and they are continuing to increase hence why 32GB kits are now over £200 and no longer the £80 they were earlier this year. 16GB kits are now around £100-£120, when we did this bundle last time our GeIL 16GB kit was at £79.99 I believe

The motherboard stock is now new stock based on a 1.23 dollar, which has increase our cost on the mainboard by nearly £20.

New stock of the Asetek cooling solution is also purchased in dollars, our previous batch of stock was months old, purchased with a 1.48 rate, now were on 1.23 rate stock which has increased our cost on these by nearly £10.


So unfortunately it all adds up, hence why the price will be around £50 more than it was previously, the actual cost increase on parts is more than £50. End of the day the bundle shall still cost considerably less than buying the parts separately.
 
One of the reviews for this bundle says that there are no mounting screws for the cooler in this bundle is that true?

This would have being an error.

Our stock count on Asetek coolers and parts was incorrect, we typically hold 6-12 months of Asetek stock as we use it for our system integration. About 2-3 weeks ago we had a fresh six months worth of stock arrive, obviously our cost when up a lot on those parts due to being purchased in dollars.

This year has being the worse Black Friday and Christmas for doing deals because everything has gotten more expensive to buy, so we had to pull a few rabbits from hats. :)

But as they say one could hope the only way is up now for the UK, fingers crossed. :)
 
is there a post count min or invite only as i am unable to see the deal??

Anyone can purchase the bundle, the price will reduce on the 28th as promised but it shall only be promoted via our forum, but of course anyone visiting our webshop and looking at the product will be able to see the discount and buy it.

We just only promote it here on our forums and that is why joining our forum and reading the post here is a good idea as we do a lot of forum only promotions and competitions.

Oh and of course if you get posting regular you will entitle yourself to free shipping eventually. :)
 
Thank you Gibbo

I could not see in store, i have been a customer off and on, a lot more this year mostly but i mostly just read the forums only. I reg to ask a oc problem but it seemed to fix itself on the build i manage to do myself :) ty youtube!!

I have a look, maybe wait for 28th then if there is a little reduction as i have a whole pc build to buy less the monitor also 1080 you kindly already sell me the other month, i was silly the lian li case i was buying went up back another £50 so that saving will make me feel less silly no to buy the other week when it was low.

I added many things to This Week Only yesterday which will end on 28th, but we shall not end it until around 16:00 next week because the replacement This Week ONLY won't be as good as I went all out on this one. :)
 
Hi There

Writing in large BOLD FONT so no one misses this post as it seems several people have not read the thread.

When does deal go live? WEDNESDAY 28th DECEMBER 10am!!

Why is it not £499 as before? Memory prices have rocketed which is nothing to do with Brexit/exchange rates though those do not help. Of course the weak pound has also caused a considerable price increase in the other components used to make the bundle, hence why it will be £550!

However, because so many people were hoping for a £499 bundle, I shall make this indeed happen again by making the default memory option an 8GB kit instead of 16GB as before, this should enable me to hit £499 again if I play with the figures and I know we still have some 8GB kits in stock from before all the crazy price increases.

I do not know which RAM kit I will use yet, as I am on holiday, so shall sort it first thing tomorrow.

So tomorrow 10am, the bundle goes live at £499 with an 8GB kit, remember to use the drop downs to select the actual memory kit you want and SSD option which of course are cost adders as they were previously.

 
Hi there

The bundle is live just with not quite a big discount as it shall be tomorrow.

So tomorrow:
- I shall post a link direct to the bundle, it will show out of stock but ignore that and order anyway, that is just a glitch in the matrix
- No cooler options!
- 8GB kit at £499 and other RAM kit options at extra cost

Intel 600P we are seeing no return issues, they are returned less than Samsung 850 EVO which hardly ever get returned, as we have always come to expect from Intel is that reliability is as always superb.

Ignore the fact it shows out of stock! All parts are in stock I shall update here when it has sold out and the bundle will be removed from the website completely once sold out, so it will show no order button and sold out when that time comes about.

Get ordering folks, plenty in stock! :)
 
BEST TO PAY WITH DEBIT/CREDIT CARD!


Guys on limited stock deals, where demand is high your best ordering with a debit / credit card. Using Amazon, Paypal or finance is not a good idea on such offers as they can delay things. 99% of the time they are fine, but I am just mentioning it because in the past they have caused unforseen delays.
 
Out of stock now that was quick guessing this ain't going to be on offer again

Still in stock!

As I said ignore what the website says, i shall update here when it is sold out. Its a deal we only inform the forum about.

If we put this live to the world, we'd sell 100 bundles in 60 seconds, consider it a bonus of being a member or reader of the forum. :)
 
Just how much better do you suppose this would actually be compared to my current 2700K at 5GHz? Would I actually notice a significant difference with R9 390 Nitro Crossfire? (x2)

Will probably have missed it by the time I get an answer anyway, and I'm mostly glad tbh. :p

I'd not bother personally you'd be better off upgrading your graphics card to a powerful single GPU solution or just wait six months or so when all new CPUs are on the market. Your current system is no slouch. :)
 
Just ordered this, I think I read it somewhere earlier in the thread, but can't remember the answer that was given. Does any of the original boxes/packaging come with this at all, or literally just the components and manuals?? :)

You get everything, as its a DIY bundle, so nothing is opened or pre-configured, its all down to you. If you get stuck post here in this thread and other members or 8 Pack will help you with the setup. :)
