There are chrome plugins which allow you to refresh tabs on a regular interval.

Is just buying whatever they see in stock first the best thing to do, be it founders or an AIB card?
Hasn't he already bought the stock going on sale today? Further currency rate changes should have no bearing on current stock, and certainly in the past Gibbo had been clear when future batch prices would change due to currency rate, while keeping existing stock at the existing price.
Eugh. I was holding out for Big Navi, but my son's GPU died last night, and I need to get him a replacement.
Do I grab a 3080 today and give him my 5700xt?
Liking the look of the Zotac Trinity and the 5 year warranty...
Oh wow. The price has literally shot up by £40 in the past 5 mins...
I was on the fence at £650, so I guess that's a big "nope" from me then!

Urggh that's horrible. 3 extra inches of pointless nothing on the end. FE is much sleeker.
Holly crap you're right, shame on you OcUK

grim that power reconnector...
I guess they all that way, want to "copy" FE through flow design
Few quid difference here and there doesn't bother me. I've been buying from OCUK since 2002 and they've never done me wrong.
All windows so I can see every card on screen in real time as it refreshes.

Seems to be a UK thing whereas someone in the US would say, well done, good for you

When i buy my components it looks like i’ll be actively avoiding OC. A master class of how not to handle product pricing. More akin to throwing **** at a wall and see what sticks.

I'm sure the FE cooler also extends past the PCB for extra cooling.

It does but that one looks nice and not bodged with power cables.
Yeah the AIb boards look cheap and nasty compared with the FE. Hoping the custom boards are better but then again they comes with up to £300 premium.

Indeed! 3440 x 1440 is 3.5 million less pixels than 4k, a 3080 should be enough.
