I've always taken the stance that get the best value for money, and biggest OC from the smallest investment, rather than the ultimate highest clock since you paid 20% more, but only for like 3% more OC. Anyway, that how I've always seen overclocking.

Do they ship to Austria?And regarding the guide, with no experience will it be able to understand for me or will it appear as some kind of black magic to someone like me?
Should be a piece of cake
I'm not sure if they ship to Austria, best to directly contact them to confirm.

Going to rip out the Gskill out of my current build. No idea if it is compatible!Nice, I just ordered the same, though I needed some DDR4 also

Well I think I'm going with an 1700 and hope that I can manage the OCing. In which thread can I ask the staff?
Soldato
I'm sure someone on here will have an answer. @Gibbo
I would also wait till 8pack releases some pre-overclocked bundles, might save some time and hassle.
If you don'get an answer, then send a webnote; https://www.overclockers.co.uk/pre-sales-enquiry

Thank you very much
Completely out of the loop around new hardware
Are any of the not yet released iterations suitable for a gaming HTpc?
I'm looking for efficient rather than cheap etc. TDP/heat is my major issue
From what I gather the lower offerings are yet to come, my 4770k is fine I think in my desktop
Running i3 2120 atm

It's nice reading about how excited people are concerning their future purchases/what system build they're going to put together, but I can't help but feel a little disappointed that I won't be trying these chips out anytime soon; the extra cores and threads would really be useful. Also, it's been a long time since I've had an AMD CPU in my system, so perhaps when I next upgrade I'll make the jump then as I'd like to try out one of their processors again. If I was buying now I'd probably go for the 1700 .

Just ordered the ASUS Crosshair along with a 1700
Don't forget you will need an AM3 backplate or an AM4 bracket kit from Corsair for that H115i

Got an AM3 through the post today, and an AM4 ordered from Corsair for 67p, but who knows when that will turn up.It's nice reading about how excited people are concerning their future purchases/what system build they're going to put together, but I can't help but feel a little disappointed that I won't be trying these chips out anytime soon; the extra cores and threads would really be useful.

Sometimes I cannot get over it is nearly 7 years since I bought an AMD processor. I remember the days I used to upgrade every 2 years.
Exciting times, have ordered a 1700 and Asus B350 mATX for Monday delivery
Last AMD I had was the Phenom XII 955BE - just had a look back through my emails for the invoice and I see that I bought it from OcUK in Jan 2010 for the princely sum of £130
Prices have increased somewhat

I thought the Crosshair uniquely supports AM3 coolers without having to get anything extra does it not?Already sorted.
