Price Increase

[ComputationalThinker101]

Could someone help me out? I recently decided to uprgrade my old gaming computer as it is in need of urgent replacement and came across overclockers uk’s custom pc build configurator. I put in my desired spec, which was:
- i5-8600k
- Gigabyte B360 HD3
- Phanteks Enthoo Pro M Glass Midi tower
- 2 Corsair Vengeance 4GB 2666mhz RAM Sticks
- Coolermaster Hyper 212X
- MSI Armour 8GB RX 570 OC
- A 80 Plus Bronze 500W Power Supply
- WD Green 3D Nano 120GB SSD
- 1TB Seagate Baracuda 7200RPM

The configuration originally came to a grand total of £825.83 with all of the offers on the induvidual parts that I was including in the computer. However, only yesterday, I checked and it says it now costs £935.83, which all of the same offers still showing, completely the same as before. Can someone please explain to me why the price has gone up by £110 with no changes?

With a budget or a general idea of what you want and ask 'spec me' and they will sort out something better for the budget... LOL kidding, they will overshoot your budget but pump that spec all the way up.

I’ll check it out, thanks.

Because prices fluctuate?

Do you know when they might go back down again?

He'd be buying lottery tickets if he had that information .

Unfortunately it's just a typical market, prices go up and down based on supply and demand.

Ok, thanks

The biggest price increase on that list of parts will be on the Intel 8600k.

Intel have supply issues due to having to produce a lot more on their 14nm node than they anticipated, so supply is tight on CPU's like the 8 and 9 series. It's going to be well into next year before they sort that out I'm afraid.

Shame, I was looking at trying to get a new computer for at least the new year. Thanks anyway though.
