hey all, I just made a thread relating to this but I dont know how to delete it so I'[ll make another. Anyways, Im after a pre built bundle and OCUK are quite cheap in comparison to competitors so I am going for them. I've currently seen 2, the super nova x79 bundle for 566, here: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-103-OE and this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-093-OE with the £20 p9x79 PRO upgrade, total 667. I am wondering, which is the best value? obviously they are pre overclocked, I will be using 2 cards eventually, I currently have 1 HD6950 card that I'll be fitting. Which is the best option? or can you find me a pre built bundle that is better and more value for money under £720?
The reason I am going pre built is that a lot of motherboards don't support the 3820 processor, because it was released after the boards were made, so they released a bios update. the problem is, if they arent updated, i wont even be able to get to post stage to update the bios. Plus, it is only around £70 more for the pre built, so I think its worth it.
Thanks for the help, hopefully I can have it ordered this afternoon. Stephen
