No to the cooler as it uses its own backplate.

£599.99 very nice. It's good to see AMD, Intel and Nvidia starting to take a haircut on margins!OcUK has now matched this!
Hi there
Infact I've reviewed all pricing and used all the rebate AMD is giving us for Black Friday, as such the prices are as follows:
7950X @ £599
7900X @ £479
7700X @ £359
7600X @ £259
Should be extremely competitive pricing and OcUK forum members get FREE shipping.

It's a shame AM5 boards aren't dropping so aggressively.Seems there is a price war on for the week, the 7950X is already below £599

Depending on the paste you are using, it may come with a spreader. Use it to spread the paste.

The MX4 that came with the AIO cooler isn't supplied with a spreader. I live near a big PC distributor so will pick one up from there, or improvise.
zen4 is the best option for upgrades coming the coming yearsIn gaming no . in productivity yes , but you also have path of upgrading later to zen4 3d, zen5 and zen5 3d
7700x is currently at £369.98
its why i got the 7600x

Credit card.
Wow, huge discounts to encourage sales by AMD. Can't remember the last time a new CPU range had such substantial price cuts this quickly, sales must have been terrible!
The early AM5 adopters can't be happy, imagine paying the £750 for the 7950X just a few weeks ago..
These are much more competitive vs Intel now - competition is great
Really nice price reduction. (possibly because they can).Wow, huge discounts to encourage sales by AMD. Can't remember the last time a new CPU range had such substantial price cuts this quickly, sales must have been terrible!

Double whammy for Intel if they go ahead with their price increases. Maybe they won't now though.
