**EXPIRED** OEM I7-6700K for £275.99 is very cheap. The prices on these have recently been as high as £360 and most other retailers still selling for >£300. Also includes free shipping on your entire basket, which from OcUK is a very nice bonus.
This deal has now expired. I've clicked the button but nothing has changed.

Xfaxfa has got the same mentality/attitude of the staff at ocuk
And Xfaxfa when you buy a item under the soga your contract is with the retailer and not the manufactuer but ocuk seem to think other

It didn't take me so long it took them 29 days for them to replace it as overclockers will NOT/DO not replace stock from there own inventory they send everything back to their supplier for replacement
This is my opinion is very poor

Hard to justify this at that price when the i5 6500 is well over a £100 cheaper this should be £250 Max.

Nothing but problems with OCUK, shoddy service, they always palm you off to the manufacturer when they ship a defective product, despite their legal obligations. Getting a replacement from the USA/China is an exercise in patience. After several problems over a few builds I just wont take a chance shopping with them, Amazon are often cheaper and refund/replace with no hassle.

I have no idea why it's cold. I keep getting notifications that it has been voted hot. It's my first deal post.

It's hot if you already have a heatsink and cooler. Maybe that's why people are voting cold? Heat from me anyway.

I'm pretty sure the retail unlocked 'K' CPUs don't come with a heatsink either.

Who doesn't just go out and buy that anyway? The Intel stock ones have always been utter crap.

why is so expensive compared to the 4790K?? same power but can someone briefly explain the advantages?? I know it takes dd4 etc.. and might only be no more that 5% better

At this price it's the same price as the 4790K. It's smaller manufacture process, less power consumption, more efficient. Not to mention the Skylake platform supports the Z170 chipset amongst other things. I think ideally someone on the 4790K will continue to use that until the next design, unless you're one of those that need the latest. Tick-Tock
Just as a note though, oem tray processors only come with 1yr warranty as opposed to retail boxed with come with 3yr. I guess it's because oem are for system builders who usually only give usual year warranty.

£308.99 if you want the extra 2 year warranty. This deal is aimed towards builders and entusiasts and typically we only offer 12 months anyway, as previously stated by enigmatik33
