Hi all,

I am looking to get a new PC at around the £2k mark.

I have found this on OCUK
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/tita...i5-7600k-4.8ghz-kabylake-fs-125-og.html#t=b1d!

and this on (where we buy most of our work kit)

** No Competitors **


What would be the benefits of the OCUK one? It looks like the RAM is a little better?

Alternatively what would be a good option for a £2k Gaming PC with a 1080TI and i7 processor? I won't be building it myself.

Cheers!

Jack

Can't see the other company, but OCUK you get great customer service should anything go wrong. Which if you're buying a pre-build is probably part of the attaction. I've bought hardware from lots of places and so far they are the best i've encountered.

You can find other companies cut corners on parts that people don't look at so much such as the power supply, which can cause issues. They don't mention the brand, which isn't a good sign, may be ok.

"750w PSU"
 
only gaming? if so i would look at 6 cores 4 cores its will not last much longer if you plan to keep it a long time
 
Ours has a higher quality case, higher quality PSU, faster memory , higher spec motherboard, a better quality, higher spec cooler and we overclock the CPU for you. Need any more reasons to buy OcUK?
