not sure why their 5600x are 20 quid more than everyone else?

Different strategy. Triple the unit profit, third the sales - but a lot less work equals more profitable business. The ONLY reason they are able to charge more than others is that ENOUGH people still buy.

Hardly , in full agreement. Its Fraud plain and simple

On topic mind the only reason ocuk still has my money after all these months of waiting is because of the good will they've given in the past in regards to months old 970 returns and previously being extremely helpful. After this OCUK we are even and any more will have me take my thousands each year spent here take else where. Final straw from what most would consider a fan boy.

Without thinking about it much, wouldn’t it be a really difficult thing to get away with fraud for this?

I have no idea. Was just reacting to the govt's own statement that "as many as 1/3 furlough claims could be fraudulent". It's a pretty non-committal statement, but if the actual figure is anywhere close to 1/3 that would be truly outrageous, and a sad indictment of corporate ethics.

Corporate ethics? It's part marketing, part propaganda. If they think they can get away with it they give it a try ;)

Well then should I say it's a sad indictment of human ethics? :p Or lack of.

I'd say all ethics are like all politics, local. That is people care most about what it who is closest to them. Perfectly natural behaviour, is the people behind the big entities pretending to care about people they funny even know exist I find cynical. It's how the world works and always has so best not to worry about it :) I do my own research and only when I'm happy do I part with my cash. Probably a terrible customer to have! :p
 
Weird, on my 2700x afterburner used to give me the option to show core clock on the osd, doesn't give that option for the 5900x, on the latest version too.

Waiting for that RRP 5950x - taking some time!

This or a 5900x for me, but won't be paying over RRP either way.

Plenty of stock alerts coming through in the last 24 hours, and prices dropping around £30 from the pre Christmas peak, just have to have a bit more patience and it'll get there.

Just weighing up what GPU to pair it with for some 1440p 165hz goodness.
