are these sold in the uk?

i can't find them anywhere!

I don't think so. EK and mips make the only easily available blocks for the UK market

oh

you know if the mips module things are compatible with an ek block? would like to avoid changing to dominators whilst having an ek top as the mips ones are bluurrrgh

I wouldn't think they would be.

I switched to dominators, they're good ram

Look on the bght side, OcUK have 1866 mhz 16gb for £120 and I bought mine for £160 and it's only 1600mhz

I now desperately want to buy the OcUK ones

That is one tasty block. There needs to be more variety from our uk etailers with watercooling.

I think it's more to do with bitspower themselves

If you do decide, let me know and we can take this to the MM

how much do you think total cost would be to get them imported to uk inc handling fees and all that crap if the bitspower block were say $50?

Cleeecooo · 6 Feb 2012 at 23:02

My best guess would be $50 if insured.

Maybe get a few people who want them to band together and save on shippin?

Doubt it would be worth it though. I considered the idea and tried it, but with all the fees regarding the couriers the reliable resellers used, it ended up being the same price going for EK stuff and dominator ram and the dominator is some of the best ram on the market so I thought I'd take the plunge
