Its proved rather popular and thus depleted all the motherboard stock, more of which is due soon.

@Gibbo Any overclocked bundles coming?

Ok well at least it's not the cpu @Gibbo. Yes I know you said only this week but I'll be waiting to pull the trigger once you can come up with a similar deal

With a different mobo, or are you waiting for actual stock, or a price change?

I think if an equivalent ASUS board was bundled up with the same RAM, CPU, Software and free SSD id pull the trigger. Same board and i would too...

Won't be happening, its a Gigabyte deal, they fund these bundles.

When Asus want to start giving us some money to discount and offer free items with bundles then we may do something but right now unlikely, especially as Asus don't make any memory or SSD's.

If you want Asus, you need to buy items separately and yes we have plenty of 9900K in stock.

Ok no prob @Gibbo, i wasnt sure how it worked your end and if you guys made the deals. That makes much more sense now. I will await a new Gigabyte deal if/when it arrives then

. Thanks for clarifying

This deal is still live and will be our Gigabyte 9900k bundle going forward, more motherboards are due today so the bundle will be back in stock today.

so you are saying that the Gigabyte board is better right?

design wise of VRMs , yes . memory - they have focused on 4 dimm slot population rather then two like asus so they'd have the lead. Visually - thats personal taste . Bios, asus is easier to use personally and i think everyone on here knows that.
customer care , gigabyte hands down- rep has helped a lot of users on here.

ram isn't bad too, not sure why gigabyte went with looser timings, maybe to suit ryzen and intel boards alike , but can be pushed to 3733hz just fine

I've fixed that, CPU had gone up in price, so I've just increased the discount on bundle to get it back to £1049.99
