Looks like a pretty darn good deal to me! Got 2 myself. Just need to find a new mobo now... heat added!

Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on prices as I'm building a new PC soon, was just waiting on Black Friday deals. This is pretty darned tempting though!

Great deal, and hopefully the plain look will deter most "gamers" from getting it too, leaving it to people who actually need it!

A few games can probably use more than 8Gb, but I think 99% of games don't. It was more aimed at the typical gamer thinking they run games better with ram that have huge heatsinks and RGB lights on :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah, I'm building a gaming PC too, but I'd strongly consider this as I'm on a budget. The H110 chipset I'll likely use is capped at 2133Mhz for memory anyway, so faster memory would be wasted - whereas the gamers you mention would likely have a Z170 which takes faster memory than this.

I just bought 2 sticks. That's really cheap for 8 GB.

Now, I just need to get all the other bits.
Come on Amazon, give us a good price on i7 6700k :smile:

Awesome deal thanks! Bought a couple for my new build. 16gb of flashy looking RAM is about £80!

will this work with the now famous Dell T20?

what a bargain, heat

Good price , nice find. Those waiting for Black Friday deals don't get your hopes up with the £ getting battered and even Scan commented on a Facebook post about that.

Is this suitable for the HP micro server N54L?

Wish I had prime.

I'm still deciding if I should grab this now or not. Doing a new build myself but holding off till black friday and cyber monday

I'm thinking about getting two of these bad boiz then waiting for a cheap i7 desktop and loading them into it. Any suggestions? I'm not very good with computer hardware. Thanks in advance <3

does duel rank make a difference is games ie worse

Thanks, much appreciated :sunglasses:
I don't have a card that gives me the option to avoid foreign currency transaction fees though.

Oh, interesting.
Yeah, can definitely wait 6 weeks for a price drop.

Happy to help, might as well make the most of free access to the other EU Amazon sites whilst we still can!

Do bear in mind, whilst the 6700k and 7700k may well have near identical USD prices, Intel may take the chance to jack up the UK price of the 7700k reflect the pathetic state GBP is currently in. Remember, Intel still have no competition at the moment, aside from their own products from previous generations. If that happens, price drops on the 6700k are much less likely.

Also there's no saying how good supply of the 7700k will be in the first weeks after launch, which could again result in higher prices, especially in foreign (to the USA, where Intel are based) markets.

Thank you Lahn.

Cheers bud! Ordering 2 up just now as I have been thinking about it all day lol Besides if by some miracle I do find a better deal in the coming weeks then I can always return this back. I still have other components to buy so chances are it won't be getting used for a while.

I'm waiting for AMD ZEN processors to be released. this will force Intel to drop their ridiculous prices :smiley: and then I will buy AMD anyway :laughing:

Ordered using a purchase of gift vouchers as there is a promo on to get £6.00 free. So essentially 2x 8GB sticks work out at £39.18

:smile:

It came up on my checkout that there is a promo. Try it on your end and see if that works?
I'm pretty sure I seen someone post it up here the other day or so as well. I had forgotten about it but during checkout the offer came up and I purchased a 40quid gift voucher.

Just be wary of the pound, sharp drops in it could negate any potential savings as intel cpu's are priced in dollars. Also, if you see an amazing deal on an i5 or i7, you may be better off snapping it up. Nobody has a crystal ball but I'm waiting for the new CPU's because I just want the faster ones and a Z270 board.

I bought this a couple of days ago while temporarily out of stock anyone have any previous with amazon do they tend to get them in speedily or even at all?

Hmm I went for this and currently on a pc build...

This maybe a long wait for me, if they don't fulfill does anyone have any alternative deals similar?

PS, this has gone to normal price now (£45)

let us know if you see any good deals?
I'm building a new machine too.

Cheapest I could find was Aria.co.uk which was £299.99. In the end my girlfriend decided she couldn't wait any longer and bought it for me at £315 on Amazon. On the plus side my PC is now an absolute monster.

is that a cpu and a motherboard together? you got a link there please?

Sorry buddy that was only the CPU. Cheapest bundle deal is on awd-it.co.uk still I think.

never knew about this site. They have some good bundles, a pitty the one I wanted is oos :disappointed: too good a price as well, 265 for an i5 and a z170 board!

I hope they re-stock it

cheers for the site mention

No worries man, I use them all the time, service is exceptional and it always arrives promptly. They are also stocking the 6700k for £309 which I believe is amongst the cheaper of the online retailers.

Happy hunting.
