i5 price increase?

[Fledge]

That's painful especially seeing as I was about to buy one yesterday until I got distracted -- and now I see that costs me 20 odd quid : /

Any thoughts?

Weak £ against the $?

You can get a boxed i5 750 for £160 easily. If you look around, one for £150 won't be hard to find either.

the comment above is spot on

....or hang on and see what happens to the market when the new AMD chips come out in about a month's time...may bring down the Intel chips a touch..

 

[Jimmy23]

well i suppose you could but playing the waiting game in the technology world is a little foolish in my opinion.

 

[Mean Mr Mustard]

If you want one and you can afford it, buy one.

No point hanging around in the hope that the price might drop by a tenner a couple of months down the line IMO.

Although it is quite often worth waiting for a new line of gpu's or cpu's or even motherboards to come out if that release is imminent

I must admit, I feel quite lucky that I bought the OEM i5 750 from here a few weeks ago for £138.99 and now its £163.99. Also I bought 2x 4gig RAM kits for £88.99 each, now they are £109.99

Yes, delivery costs inc.

Everything seems to be going up in price at the moment

 

[Mr Krugga]

No wonder why.
