** EARLY BIRD CATCHES THE WORM: CYBER MONDAY 8 PACK ELITE TIER FORUM ONLY DEAL!! **

[Gibbo]

So now you don't have to follow the rules; and put your name etc ay?

D3K is going to be annoyed! (Quite rightly so)

If you want one just email we, I shall just get it sorted.

 

[Gibbo]

she said yes Santa is coming early so you if you can add me to the list please

Just email me and I shall get sales to call you.

 

[Gibbo]

I have got to ask, why did everyone have to follow the rules and post their names etc this morning and now seemingly they don't?

We were being ultra cautious.

 

[Gibbo]

Im abit confused now. Are you still taking orders for the lower price? or the higher price?

I missed out this morning

Email me as per OP and we will sort you out tomorrow.

 

[Gibbo]

Gibbo, delighted that I've actually got one, was on tenterhooks throughout my flight with no wifi.

I have a missed called from an unknown number but no reply to my email. Can you just confirm all is good? I appreciate its after 8 now in the UK so I doubt anyone can call. Happy to sort out payment tomorrow if someone can call then?

Yeah my sales manager has a note to call you tomorrow, don't worry buddy.

 

[Gibbo]

Completely missed this yesterday, chaotic day at work (including a failed CPU cooler ) So guess it's Monday morning job and hope for the best.

Gibbo - Are there any actually left?

Yes drop me an email as per the OP, I shall get your sorted out.

 

[Gibbo]

Guess there are still a few left, fired off another email with my mobile number that I had stupidly forgot last night (blame the rushed email sent from work).

Presumably I can add to the order over the phone? Need a nice 750D Airflow to go with it.

Yes.

 

[Gibbo]

Most of you probably won't get call backs until this afternoon simply because our sales/warehouse are absolutely snowed under.

 

[Gibbo]

Out of interest what happens if the guaranteed overlock of 4.12ghz does not work/is not stable?

Do Overclocker's replace the CPU?

I have no experience of haswell E , but I assume 4.12 is pretty conservative?

Yes you get a replaced CPU.

 

[Gibbo]

yeah, my processor outer packaging was damaged on both sides, decent rips on the front and a 1 inch one across the back. similar comment for the cooler, except the main reason i came here was to see if anyone had mentioned the lack of instructions. I've got a bag of fittings, a cpu block, and not a clue how to install it, and i've stupidly applied the thermal paste before realising this. Theres no overclocking instructions either, which i was expecting (ive seen theres a thread linked, but not viewed it yet).

Instructions in the thread and any questions ask there.

 

[Gibbo]

Very helpful post!

Because we're here to help even out of work hours.

 

[Gibbo]

Always appreciated when you put the extra in.I'm considering this even if it is a little tight in the Phanteks evolve ATX. have been looking over the mobo, is the m.2 full PCIe x4 as some are saying it's only pcie x2 and this would limit the sm951 considerably.

EDIT: actually yeah seen it's been addressed in the thread already and an asus pcie adapter will sort it out. Are there any left for forum members or do I wait until monday to see if I can snag one?

Monday now Im afraid at 9am

 

[Gibbo]

Hey Gibbs any chance of a special price for members who bought this bundle for the adapter ? Just realised its limited to 10gb after reading post ((

This bundle saved you nearly £300, there really is not any more saving I can offer on a £18 adapter sorry as they are already reduced from £20.

 

[Gibbo]

A phone call is misleading because how on earth a deaf person unable to hear the phone? Unfair really. But overall well done overclockers for black friday excellent icepack bundle but they should think of deaf customer first who unable to hear the phone call should avoid in future.

Not happy about this.

Would you like one of the bundles?

 

[Gibbo]

He's... trying harder i'll get my own coat

Before i do, im a bit disappointed that the SSD is getting significantly throttled by the hardware, seems odd to include a mobo in the bundle which isnt letting its other components stretch its legs fully. That said, at £690 theres room to buy the adapter, i just wish i knew it was required so i could have added it on Friday.

Is this the right item? https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus-hyper-m.2-x4-pci-e-mini-adapter-card-black-pcb-hd-032-as.html

Also, switching to the ram, its being detected as 2133MHz (cpuz knows its DDR4 3000 branded), i guess i need to sort that in the bios? is there a reason that happens?

Im happy with the bundle though, money is tight and i've had credit sat waiting since April for something i felt would give me a large step up and last me a long time, and had contemplated this bundle only a few weeks back but couldnt get there, i had £1k and wanted a PSU too.

hah, last night i'd installed the drivers and had a look at the 'killer network', seems i wasnt paying attention to the 'upload speed' & 'download speed' labels and put the info in as if it asked the other way (down/up), and last night trying to get the 'APP Center' to update was like pulling teeth, and now i realise why!

All high performance RAM needs configuration in the BIOS as 2133MHz is the default speed to ensure compatibility. You then go in the BIOS and either set XMP or post in the thread for the bundle and Mr 8 Pack will help you out.

 

[Gibbo]

^^ And this is why I shop at OCUK.

Exactly

I'm not even in work, supposed to be doing things with family but I'm still posting here.

 

[Gibbo]

Can wait if I can still get deal!

Email me, will get one of our sales staff to call you early Monday 08:30-9:30am so be available.

If you cannot be available then unfortunately you will need to place your order online at Mondays higher price come 9am and be quick we expect them to sell out.

 

[Gibbo]

Love to but probably it too late now!

I've just offered you one so its not too late.

So do you want one?

 

[Gibbo]

Thanks but no thanks. Next year black friday as I will got enough money by then! Already spend new phone (black friday) plus other stuff for my daughter.

I don't get it, you came here complaining about us not making the offer for death people and your upset you missed out.

So I come offering you one and willing to sort you out but you actually never wanted one in the first place?

Did you just start posting in this thread then to be negative towards OcUK and waste our time then? Back to the family as you just clearly wasted my time!!!

 

[Gibbo]

Can we please get thread back on track, people complaining non stop

Yes agreed people complaining when they actually have no intention of buying absolute time wasters.

Back on track, second chance for those who missed out on Monday 9am via TODAY ONLY.
