at 1680x1050 the ads on both sides are chopped off and the buttons are chopped off too... lol

Should buy a new monitor with a higher resolution, probably a shop around here that sells them...

It's a lot easier to navigate and seems to be way more responsive too.

Can't say I go on the shop much but, this is the new site?! It's not even responsive? Surely in this sector having a well designed website is vital given the target audience.

The website feels very fast to me - I don't know if that's Firefox Quantum, the new site, or both? Ghostery shows a 0.74s loading time for https://www.overclockers.co.uk/pc-components/graphics-cards/nvidia :cool:

So much better, clearer and more professional, it looked a bit tacky before.

No one buys CPUs these days, all the smart money is in chairs and chair accessories. Did you see OcUK's chairs? They have so many CHAIRS. BUY SOME CHAIRS. ARE YOU BUYING CHAIRS? WHYARENTYOUBUYINGCHAIRSYET!?!>>!

Wait, ocuk sell chairs? They should advertise that.

I meant responsive in design not speed

Tell me about it. I bought a new 500GB Samsung Evo 850 SSD this week. Thought I'd check Overclockers as they have historically been close enough to the lowest price to justify paying a little premium for the service (and upkeep of these fine forums) - however when I looked the Overclockers price was £49 higher than I paid :eek:

- that's 35% more expensive..?!!? Sorry - but no...

Quite like it myself, seems more streamlined and crisp.

The new website still doesn't work properly in portrait mode, even in 4K (with Windows scaling set to 175%) I get a scroll bar across the bottom. Setting scaling in Chrome to 90% fixes this. I see the same problem on my 1200p portrait-mode monitor (scaling set to 100% in Windows and Chrome) with the same solution.
