Yeah my 1700 @ 3.9 beats that cinebench score (~1730), so a 2700X at 4.2+ should demolish it.

Gibbo already said that OCUK would be lower than those leaked prices.

Well, that's pre-order (not leak). I have one sat in my basket from the aforementioned popular retailer. Unlikely to be pulling that particular trigger till I get a look at other prices but... still.
MAYBE I will get this all landed for <£700. There will be MUCH rejoicing if so (£200 for 16GB 3200 cl14 at the start of the year to be ready).

They've been up on that particular retailer for a week or so, just hidden, they've stayed at that price since then. In the US they are $329 (from the same shop) which is ~£280 inc VAT. I can see them being ~£300 launch price.

What do we think about their new Prizm coolers?

I like the Rainbow RGB ring but i don't like the frosted clear fans, it makes the whole cooler look tacky, the solid black fans with the thin RGB ring looked more class.

I think we can sell them on ebay for 10-15 quid

Looked at my bank statement this morning. I think i can still get away with Lowering springs and remaop for 350z and have spare coin for 2700 cpu.
question is are 2700x binned better than 2700 hmmm
could sell 1700x + cooler at 120 quid i guess

Dirk Diggler · 13 Apr 2018 at 13:45

Any news on OcUK pre-orders?

Also, I assume existing custom (EK?) blocks will fit as it's the same socket?

Loads of people wanted the Wraith MAX cooler, so much so that AMD released it as a stand alone product (at a very high price because they had agreements not to step on the toes of other cooler manufacturers).

So the inclusion of the Wraith Prism this time around is a direct response to that interest, and the good press around the quality of the other stock coolers.

Pre orders are up. £300 for the 2700x is very tempting but I’ll hold out to see the reviews on how it works on the current boards.

Gregga · 13 Apr 2018 at 14:18

Now just the X470 pricing and some reviews to go with them. That 1600X price is still looking good until then.

That could be me. What do you need ?

If you could run the same tank section trying to mimic what he was doing that would be great, especially if you can hit allcore 4Ghz. 1080p Ultra.

jrwagh333 · 13 Apr 2018 at 14:21

I don't like how it's advertised at the max boost speed in the title .

Intel postings aren't like that are they?

DragonQ · 13 Apr 2018 at 14:25

£25 above SRP for the R7 2700X? Typical OcUK launch pricing I guess. Wonder how long it'll take for them to settle down.

I remember Gibbo saying that the only reason prices we so high here was because of the weak pound. Of course now it's stronger, they're still high...funny that.

eddiew · 13 Apr 2018 at 14:27

Fingers x'd that there's an X470 mATX option somewhere in the warehouse...

Relentless81 · 13 Apr 2018 at 14:29

What is the point in the 2600X over the 1600X? other than a bit more single core boost I cant see anything and is it me or are they much more expensive this time around? Sure I paid a lot less for my 1600X on release

Mercutio · 13 Apr 2018 at 14:32

Pre-orders on the boards going up too?

Edit: You can have my money for that too if so

zola25 · 13 Apr 2018 at 14:36

I see from the listings that memory is supported "up to 3600Mhz". Are those officially supported speeds?

Edit: I see from information now coming out 2933 is the officially supported speed, which is still an improvement.
