arghhh

Ordered a bloodrage and 920 last night

Would have been sorely tempted by this.

Why do these bundles come on offer just after I order exactly the same thing?

I would have gladly paid a bit more to have the headache taken away!

Yewen · 27 Jul 2009 at 23:11

Might be because you want things before we have had time to properly test them.

Do you have exactly the same setup?

nantucket66 · 27 Jul 2009 at 23:16

If I knew this was coming I would have waited, awesome kit though and I am over the moon but the mobo settings are fairly intense.

Same board and cpu, but this memory http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-008-PA

with the Noctua cooler and 2 Noctua fans

Yewen · 27 Jul 2009 at 23:19

Ahh good choice, the reasoning behind the Corsair XMS memory and not Dominator/Patriot is due to the feedback we have had on the UD5 bundle, some people have had trouble fitting custom fans and the cooler in certain cases with the taller memory. The Patriot is a bit of an office favourite for the clocking systems.

That combination you have there should be good for 3.60GHz-3.80GHz+ without too much trouble, if you are unsure about how to get going we have an excellent overclocking and cooling section.

nantucket66 · 27 Jul 2009 at 23:22

Yeah, when I got everything unpacked and started building for a moment or 2 I though I was going to have an issue with the CPU cooler and the RAM slots but it was all good in the end

As for overclocking it, yeah, I need to have a good read and start tinkering!

Once my wallet has recovered I'll be going down the water route.

Cheers

That looks a really good deal. My opinion is that if you are going to go with i7 is that you go for the high end hardware otherwise your not using it to it's full potential and getting value for money.

This looks great. And the way i7 should be done
