Bundles

I don't get it
bundles are no cheaper than buying them seperate
can someone explain why they even exist.
would love to buy a bundle from ocuk if there was
an incentive to do so.

just to ensure compatibility I guess, plus to make sure less informed people don't buy the wrong stuff

Have wondered about price saving as well but think it's aimed more at those people who are unsure about parts compatibility and therefore a bundle would ensure full compatibility.

Oh I found another reason for getting a bundle

I havent ordered an OC bundle before, but know of friends who have from other retailers and they come pre built. So basically, you get the CPU and RAM already installed saving you all of a matter of minutes when you get your mits on it.

Not sure if OC do the same though.

I ordered a bundle from them a looong time ago, and it wasn't pre-built.

Putting a CPU and 2 sticks of memory into the motherboard is possibly the easiest part of a PC build though!

yes very cute but i saved myself from that and i hear geil ram has issues
with the ds3 on this very board so bundles are not fullproof.
I mean at least make it cheaper for buying more.
