They haven't done that for a few years now no matter if it's a cheap £50 board or a £400 one.

Seems odd though there was no sticker preventing me from opening the box up, so I just assumed they had took it out and tested it.

Ordered the Taichi bundle, great value and guaranteed overclock - thanks 8 Pack!

Good choice. Solid bundle.

Do you find that many of the 1600s fail at 3.9, 8 Pack?

nickx91 · 24 Aug 2017 at 15:40

Makes me wanna buy it.

I must just be super unlucky...
Mine won't even do 3.875ghz on 1.425 without throwing the occasional WHEA error.

Yeah I guess you must and maybe some variation in batches.

Shivatastic · 26 Aug 2017 at 01:45

Just to say thanks 8 Pack

Purchased a bundle based on the ASUS and it overclocked perfectly with no issues! Very very happy with the setup thank you!

8 Pack · 28 Aug 2017 at 16:25

^ Glade your pleased with it.

Random question - if you select no cooling options - is the CPU still the retail with stock cooler or is it an OEM?

chanjy · 3 Sep 2017 at 16:18

Bought this just over a week ago - retail everything including CPU with the Spire cooler

Retail. All retail.

Thanks chaps - that really does look good. I'm super tempted to push the buy button but can't really decide between the Asus or Asrock bundle - I do like the look/features/gazillion of USBs better but the Taichi comes with wifi which I will need as well.

I'm not sure if the price difference is justified too - all other places sell the ASUS for less and actually sell the new wifi model for the same price as OCUK does base one. The bundles are great value but this is slightly off-putting and makes decisions difficult.

Taichi is great for the money and every bit as good at oc as crosshair. Go that route mate.

Bollse · 15 Sep 2017 at 10:27

Out of curiosity I switched out of my current config to your profile for the Taichi 8Pack. My system will not cold boot with that profile.

marco.da.man · 18 Sep 2017 at 10:05
