how do You get that price? GBP 122.57 for me with amazon conversion.

It's your deal but IMHO I would not have - no self respecting HUKD member would use AZ conversion :wink:

I'll revert it back to it's original price...

So how do you get the 114.98 price? Select EUR for payment and untick "If you place an order..." ?

168.33 EURO = 118.17 BRITISH POUND
So again... How to get 114.98

With cards like Halifax Clarity etc etc which give ideal exchange rate.

​118.17 is with 0% fee.

Yeah. But who's rate? They're all different ...

Check MasterCard's rate

Can this be over clocked? Can't see the 'k' anywhere so guessing no

anything under 130 is a decent price, isn't it?

​the one from the link above, VISA.

​very similar, is 2 days behind the live rate. still 117ish

good processor btw, bought mine a year ago for ~£130. runs everything ive ever wanted fluently, mainly gaming but also 3d modelling

i7 2600 for 105 from CeX. according to passmark it is a much better deal?

On the payment page would I put 'my business is in sterling' or 'euro'? (using a visa) Thanks

​i couldn't find any directly comparing the two. plus, surely a generic benchmark that is based on many tests is better than the performance of a single game, where in most cases, the GPU will have the most impact on fps.

Synthetic benchmarks aren't very useful especially when talking about gaming.

You said the 2600 is a much better deal because it's got a higher score on passmark but due to higher IPC games will run better with this.

This is perfect for my new build, just need gfx card now under £150ish to keep my build under £500 :smiley:

I've been thinking more about this.
GFX Cards -290>280x/770>380/960
GTX 960 for £125 , R9 380 for £125, GTX 770 for £140 & R9 280X for £140.

I'm plumping for the 770 but still might hold out until black friday for further price drops.

Stupid question - if I buy this from Amazon Spain will everything be in Spanish?

​so as you show, 280x is best in terms of 'price:performance' as performance is usually higher at the same price as the 770. it depends on whether the games you play favour AMD or NVIDIA cards. The performance is so close that its only when a game engine prefers either card will any noticable difference be present.

280x usually has more on board memory which may help with higher resolutions and higher quality textures and some 'future proofing' although not usually worth thinking about in this price range.

Thanks for the help. Not really a big gamer. Just use for FIFA and maybe COD occasionally but nothing major. More into watching 1080P tv & film.

​in that case buy whichever you can get the cheapest :smiley:
