Well I decided to go for it;
My basket at Overclockers UK:

Total: £442.92
(includes shipping: £0.00)

Believe this qualifies for this promotion too; https://promotion.asus.com/en/uk/Ryzen so two free games (3 if including Everspace)

You might get Quake Champions with the Ryzen 1600 aswell
 
@Gibbo whats the Nitro Concept deal with Ryzen (if it is still going)... was looking at pre-built PCs to price compare building my own. Saw with some CPU options you got a free chair and other's you didn't. Couldn't find any specifics on the promo.

I dont think thats actually the full Quake Champions game is it? isnt it just some character packs?

It's the full game, or at least as close to it as it's possible to get. The pack gives you every current and future character as well as access to the game's Early Access phase, which is exactly what you get if you buy it on Steam. The game will eventually be free to play, but you'll have to buy the characters with real money or get them as extremely rare drops from loot boxes. You can also rent them with the in-game currency, but not buy them with it.

11th of November, but of course if they decide to extend it is completely upto AMD. :)

@Gibbo Was about to pull the trigger on this deal but noticed the price had went back up already, any chance you can help me out? Was actually looking to buy the same bundle as below (as well as a few other things) but notice that is also out of stock :(. If not fair enough, my fault for waiting a few extra days..

Thanks

Wow, 218.99 for the RAM now :eek: I have been looking into getting a Ryzen cpu/mb/ram using the 8pack kit and was seriously thinking of ordering this weekend but not at that price. Looks like my Haswell i3 will just have to cope for a while longer and I suspect for a long time as the price trend just keeps going up.

You don't need £110 sticks. Running cheap Hynix at 2933Mhz seems more than doable on most half decent motherboards. The expensive kits are only needed for 3500Mhz.
 
So if margins are that tight on Ryzen I guess that Sheffield retailer really was a pricing error. Would be better if they had just told customers that they messed up and blew through the stock but not surprising from those clowns.

Shocking behaviour from them got a full refund and they lost a good customer for life here

Fixed that for you. I have seen zero hynix kits hit 3200 as of yet.

With the latest AGESA versions,things seem to be getting better. Someone else I helped with a build used the cheapest 3200MHZ set they could find(Patriot) and it was running at 3066MHZ with some tweaking.

A mate managed to get some dual ranked 2666MHZ Micron based DIMMs running at 2933MHZ fine. These are all on sub £100 motherboards BTW.

If you look at the MC update AMD are supporting 4000Mhz. Should be an interesting few months.

That's not 3200 though which seems to be the magic number thrown around. 2933 is what you are looking at with hynix.
@jigger the crosshair board has support +4000 since last agesa but nobody has achieved it. A microcode update won't change that.
