If I place an order for other components, can buy a GPU?

[mcast]

I'm about to spend around £1400, but I'm realizing I can't do anything without a GPU. Is there a way OCuk can sell me a GPU for around £600, total budget £2000?

I'm obviously not reselling, I just need a new PC.

You could go the pre-built route, I believe some of their stock allocation goes towards those. Alternatively hang around here and keep an eye out for the new forum code GPU drop.

If it's purely for gaming then you're out of luck until stock becomes available. If it's for other uses also then you have some stop gap options like iGPU or cheap underpowered second hand etc.

There is about 1000+ in the queue before you...

You’ll need to buy a pre built

Just saw the other post, time to go to work, I bet I miss it.

Didn't you know all the retailers have a Scrooge McDuck style GPU pit that the bosses swim in? When they get tired, they eBay a couple for £300 more than RRP. It's how they are funding the vaccine-new-world-order-mind-control-globe-earth plan. Wake up, sheeple!

Closer to 5000 iirc.

Welcome to pc building of 20-21.

I started part buying pre black Friday, I'm still not quite done but close.

Besides that, Gibbo and friends might be releasing some more gpus to forum participants/gamers this week ... Read the posts. That's how I eventually got mine.

lots of retailers have a separate allocation for pre-built machines, so if you are building a whole new PC and need a GPU then you will be better off getting them to build it as you then might actually be able to get a GPU

Buying a pre-built PC and running with it, or buying one and selling the bits you don't want, is the best way to achieve what you are looking to do currently. As bizarre as it may seem...

There's always something I don't quite want in a prebuilt, I'm going to have this PC for at least 5 years, small things will annoy me.

Then option B, buying one and selling the bits you don't want.

You can't, they are no longer taking preorders for out of stock cards

Not offended just shocked that you think you're better than everyone else as you have 1400 quid to spend. Like your some kinda baller. £1400 isnt getting you anywhere now get back in line.
