Shortage: AMD Socket 939 X2 3800, 4200 & 4600!

The shop is...appropriate for the market. It's best suited to people who knows what they want before they get to the shop. It has a certain Spartan charm. It comes across as a corner of a warehouse, really. It's small, dominated by the trade counter and has only a few things on display along parts of two walls due to the lack of space. There are 2 or 3 PCs showing the website, which is appropriate considering that it would be reasonable to view the shop as a physical presence for a predominantly online business.

It's a storage facility and office space with a trade counter in an ante-room, really.

The storage facility must be a Tardis. OcUK have a huge turnover and there can't be much space in the mankey aircraft hanger of a business park that the shop is in.

So, whenever you're in the shop, look out for a very long scarf

Been a few times, and both times had barneys with my lass as I have had a nightmare finding it. You would think that it would be a big place but it does give the impression of being small. All their stock must be crammed in every available draw space. But in the end u know what u want just go to the counter get your stuff and thats it. U dont get a bloke in a purple shirt coming up to u who knows squat.

Good news, really strange that I had no interest in dual core for a few months but as soon as I ordered a X2 3800+ I want it straight away

Oh yeah, it's hard to find, too. The "business park" OcUK is in is at the end of a side street off a side street. There used to be a Volvo garage on the corner where you turn into the first side street from the main road and most people knew where that was, but it's gone now. I forget what's there now.

There must be more space out the back of the shop than there appears to be...or a replicator from Star Trek to make the kit

i always read people visiting the ocuk shop, i'm intrigued, what does the actual ocuk shop look like, anyone have any pics?

It used to be quite nice. Now its horrid. Not the shop itself. Just the fact that its allways rammed. Your easyily looking at 1hour+ to get served. Queues are massive, and that many people, in such a small room=bad.
Unless your lucky and get their at one of the very few quiet times.

Im not suprised the X2s are selling though. I pre-ordered mine literally the minute they went online so i wouldnt lose out on getting one. I wasnt gonna buy for a month, but i thought i might as well order now.
