*****HASWELL PROCESSORS, MAINBOARDS & SYSTEMS NOW IN STOCK AT OcUK!!!!*****

Thanks for the info. OEM chips are still all brand new stock right?

Gibbo, if I send a webnote to cancel my order will this get cancelled before the item gets shipped tomorrow?, I ordered 1am this morning (teach me to order whilst half asleep) or is it easier to just amend my order?

Stick a note in the customer section!

Yeah, but they are just the chip without heatsink and fancy packaging, the warranty will be less too.

Ah ok guess if I'm OC the warranty is screwed anyways?, seems silly paying the extra for a fancy box and paper weight that I'll never use...unless I'm missing something else?
 
Checked our competitors and seems our pricing is the best and like many of our competitors we also give you GRID 2 as well. Plus our CS is the best! :)

The way I see it is that the retail CPU will hold a higher resale value if you sell it on later, a potential buyer may need the heatsink that comes with it to get it up and running.
 
I'm assuming

4770k is the new 2600k/3770k

and

4670k is the new 2500k/3570k?

The numbering strategies are weird. Would have been much simpler to go 2500k->3500k->4500k etc.

I don't normally like to pick up on these kind of things but that looks like incredible value for 170GB of ram ;)

Anyways, I do like the direction new motherboards are heading in. Seems a lot more thought is going into the styling and with the various colour options I'm looking forward to seeing some new project logs popping up!
 
Am I right that despite some boards having up to 10xSATA 6GB/s that the Z87 chipset only supports 6 Intel SATA 6GB/s, so the extra are Marvell?

Are the Marvell ports worth using nowadays?

The Z87 does only support six SATAIII ports, the UD4H uses a Marvell chip to add two more SATAIII
