Paid £184 on Amazon 2 weeks ago, glad I got it when I did as it seems to be up at £199.99 now.

good price for the boxed version but I saved £5 and got the unboxed version as I was using a noctua with it.

cant imagine many people buying this would want to use the stock cooler so might as well spend £5 on faster ram or anything other than a box and cooler you will never use.

small % more on topcashback too.not sure if quidco better atm? I too have been watching this processor. seems about the time to buy it! shame it's 4 days before payday :disappointed:

Was offered £172 on flubit week before last

Blimey. It's jumped up to over £220 now

Is a new one coming out or something? Why the price increase?

Yup only 1 year for you boyo haha 5 quid for 2 more years... silly silly boy

Paid £185.99 back on 05/08/2015 from eBuyer!

Still this is a good price.

£5 for a warranty on something that basically doesn't break.

Warranty also voided by overclocking.

Hiya! Just wonder can someone advice me; is it safe to buy this CPU from ebuyer?! Are they ok seller?

I spent £50 more on eBay and got i7 6700k hyperthready goodness

Cheers OP, Heat Added :

Ofc they break... and they cant tell if you oc... noway to prove it.

Great processor. Been no problem for me clocked to 4.2ghz. I've seen places offering at 4.7ghz. So quick.

I can't find any examples of people with intel chips breaking in the first few years with a quick google, the only instances of them breaking seem to be down to cooling failures.

Pro skills finding 100% of the buyers returns in 5 mins

So you can't find any either.

Honestly I've never in 20 years as a nerd heard of an intel chip failing within 3 years.

Got my son this 2 weeks ago through Flubit for £174, I'd say things have gone up due to the pound being weak.

I will say this tho my son was only getting 30FPS on ARMA3 with a FX 8350 and GTX 970 and when he moved over to a 6600K DDR4 setup he doubled his FPS !!.

Warranty is not voided by overclocking as it is a 'K' CPU which has a unlocked multiplier, they are marketed as overclockers, it is voltage that kills CPU's which in turn leads to overheating, as said though impossible to tell it's been killed by a bad voltage bump.

They're sold unlocked but the warranty still doesn't cover overclocking.

People going to be buying extended warranty's on their other pc components?

Bit harsh ! I voted leave and I don't really class myself as illiterate nor an imbecile !!

Well said, I was deceived by an eBay seller from whom I bought an i7 6700k claiming to be a never used 6700k i7, it didn't work at all, it was a hassle sending motherboard and memory back all to test and return. Intel surprised me with their service, I put the processor serial number and raised 3 year warranty claim, call came from Intel support, send dhl to pick up faulty one on Tuesday to send to Netherlands, new replacement arrived on Friday. They never asked me where did I purchase from, only thing they asked me was, was it in a retail box?

Play-Asia have a i5 6600k for £180 dont know how reliable they are?
