/update3: "3070 = many available.
The Hellfire is back.
that £999.99 RTX3070 16GB 1TB 12400F..... but this time with some boosters.
#TX750 + #RTX4070TI
so lets dive in:
INTEL i5 12400F - 6 Cores 12 Thread
ADATA 16GB DDR4 3200Mhz
ASUS B660M WIFI Motherboard
WD 1TB SN770 M.2 nVME GEN4
GAMEMAX F15M MESH
NVIDIA RTX4070TI 12GB
CORSAIR 750w GOLD TX750
MICROSOFT Windows 10/11
Price: £1379.99 or (£999.99 for RTX3070/650W/1TB
So the palicomp hellfire has been topped up, which is lovely to see with some nice upgrades.
obvious there is a lot of hate on the nvidia front with the 4000 series prices, but despite what AMD and Nvidia do,
for me its about what the end sellers do with what they have.
So this package despite Nvidia best attempt at organising a new years party in a pub saying goes.
Speaking of which: Happy New Year!. First post of the year.
Its cheaper then Scan UK 4070Ti system, infact its cheaper by £20 then SCAN UK's "3070TI" system, and offers 12400F over a Ryzen 5600 and also had a 750W gold PSU over 550W which makes no sence to me and we have a mesh case, now scan does have afew ranges but again their "elite" ones are even more cost on top base line model.
# So their base model isnt worth it, and their upgrade models aint over their own base models.
Looking into the web more at 4070Ti systems.: Ebuyer kick starts at £2399.99 under the DDR5 platform
however i do not see anywhere despite how lovely they look where the 1G in part value is?.
never mind performance value.
im not seeing anything worth mention elsewhere yet but will keep updated in the post (see comment on awd), majority of builders are more for 3080 system never mind 4070Ti systems speaking of which
palicomp has over stepped over their own feet again. what's there price of 3080 which just happens to be +14 more for a 3080 then 4070Ti system. jesus im surrounded by silly people. however i do have a booster of £300 if anyone wants it, but what's the point of now saving £50 for the 3080 then getting a 4070ti
Hmmm More boosters. - could get interesting; but nope the backdoors aint gonna work on these, because the hellfire 3070 is rock bottom anyways and they are best suited on this, if u do desire ryzen yes i could do them on the ryzen one but its not going beat this - for old timers who know about my old backdoor methods, that is dead here atm. but i always keep checking.
The reviews on:
most majority of YTubers i play in mute and i skip to the juicy performance tables
and then i do my own performance review, if ive not tested the card my self against the price im paying.
The prices on 4000 Series aint as good, so obvious alot of hate, but if u had 1 option of 3070ti 5600 at scan uk £1399.99 vs £1379.99 at palicomp 12400F 4070ti for prebuilt buyers, it shuts up what there saying right?
and that is how it is on alot of things on YT what they say dont actual follow real market situations and most people are prebuilt buyers then self builders.
but this time around we do have the options
1) i have bought u the best affordable 4070Ti = Job done.
2) I have brought u the hellfire at £999.99 for that last gen undercut.
3) We have AWD-IT 6750XT-6800-6800XT pre xmas lines still going.
4) Rad on here brought u the 11400F/3070Ti
5) and then u have that 5800x/3080 HP tire kicking around job. Saturday night hang over build that Type: 3080 on here. price on that been recently good despite what it is, thats a build knowing ur going to a party and knowing ur going to end up in hospital the next day in advance the price of the party is that good and the drinks are amazing price, still u end up going.
So if u want to scrap this 4000Series stuff off you got option to do so, but if ur thinking of boosting them to higher ram, higher case load, higher cooler, higher cpu is the main one, then u might as well hey, and we are around this budget
u might as well just do the GPU on this and back here. so my best advice dont spend much more then G. keep to around a G, it gets alot easier. im talking directly to them, u know who u are. i like what u did with the 1.1k deal..
but the ones what come to me with ive got another 100, maybe 150.
u have seen plenty of 1k deals by me.
obvious u can: increase cpu, increase ram, increase case, increase whatever. and now we got increase gpu again over the 6800xt one we had.
But that is my two penny's but im not you am i, its ur cash so invest correctly in ur system..
#GPU is Preinstalled on this line, and Gen4 is back in, and the PSU GOLD IS TX750.

sorted byIf I were to also go for the i7 12700k would you recommend any further upgrades?
Edit: Alongside the 4070ti variation (edited)
"they do have DDR5" but u need to speak to them, some people have got some good deals on DDR5 but there limited as palicomp is a small firm, and i think the board was only another £20 for the DDR5 version, so it was just the gap on DDR5 ram tbh from ddr4 but best to speak to them on live chat or email: sales@palicomp.co.uk
After I ordered I got an email saying:
- Case I choose was too small (1 subsitute offered which was the original case)
- They were OOS of the mother board I picked (3 subsitutes offered 1 being the board i choose inc wifi which was an extra £45)
- The cooler selected wasnt compatible with the CPU I selected (1 substitute cooler offer at an extra £35)
They also tried to upsell the warranty
Finally they advised that they recommend I purchase the Qjump as they were very busy and that the lead time would more than likely we over the specified 10 working days.
At this point I spat my dummy out and had a bit of a rant about my trying to order over the phone to avoid substitutes as I was working to a tight budget and didnt want to spend the extra £80 and that the added wait time didnt suit me. I therefore asked for a refund.
They emailed back with subsitutes that only ended up costing an extra £2.60 and offered Qjump for free.
Mobo - ASUS PRIME Z690-P WIFI D4 @ (-£15)
Case – GAMEMAX F15M Mesh RGB @ (-£17.40)
Cooler – ARCTIC 240mm ARGB @ (+£35)
All the above happened on the 16th, by 18th 8.00am the PC was delivered to my front door.
All packaged very well. As mentioned in other posts the GFX card(Palit branded and its HUUGE) is packed seperatly and you have to fit that yourself. For anyone that isnt confident there is a printed guide included.
Its all now set up and I am very happy with the build.
Also another plus they have installed Windows 11 pro even though I didn't choose the +£20 upgrade option.
Alot of people have asked me regarding the follow deal so im going to cover it:
AWD-IT 13400F RTX 4070Ti System.
Starts at £1449.99
But im going in for the kill:
Intel Core i5 13400F 10 Core 16 Thread 4.6GHz Turbo
Zotac Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 12GB GDDR6X Graphics Card
MSI MAG Forge M100R Gaming Case
Asus B660M-A Micro ATX Motherboard
Arctic Alpine 12 Compact CPU Cooler
Adata 16GB (2x8GB) 3200Mhz DDR4 Memory
Gigabyte P750GM 750W Gold Rated PSU
Western Digital SN770 1TB NVME M.2 PCIe GEN 4 SSD
1200Mbps Dual Band Internal Dual Antenna Wifi Card
Price: £1547.97
Would it be fair to compare to Palicomp 12400F/4070Ti at £1379.99
Honest answer: not really. In PCPP terms..... We talking £160 CPU to £205 CPU
I topped up AWD's to gen4 storage. ive topped a wifi to replace wifi board on the palicomp.
Who cares about windows. eh. not me, prob not u? and if u do. well awd has it loaded just get a code.
so £1547.97 vs £1379.99 in the same light deal. doesnt look good when u look at the above.
Palicomp price on the 12400F is exceptional, But its an I5 main stream. just like the 13400F is a main stream i5.
and main steam I5's are mass produced OEM Lines...
One is NEW. one is OLD (intel doing deals on new...pig just flew over my head). clearly PCPP isnt upto date with OEM stock. so the gap is going to be much larger in house.
obvious that is giving some information what happens behind closed doors, but its common info. and u cant diss palicomp for that because they all access to same pool and they all pick up the oem stock rates and clearly it shows one firm is passing them discount on, then keeping it for themselfs but i cant diss AWD because other deals in other areas.
but what we do have is that the 13400F is a 10Core 16Thread CPU and not 6core 12thread like the previous 12400F and that new 13400F budget challenger of the elite 12600K CPU.
So to give AWD-IT some credit to compare it to palicomp's 12600K more fairer which would be retail stock.
and here goes:
INTEL i5 12600KF - 10 Cores 16 Thread
ADATA 16GB DDR4 3200Mhz
ASUS B660M WIFI Motherboard
WD 1TB SN770 M.2 nVME GEN4
GAMEMAX F15M MESH
NVIDIA RTX4070TI 12GB
CORSAIR 750w GOLD TX750
MICROSOFT Windows 10/11
Price: £1515.99 when u upgrade this link we are speaking on
and if you was to put both in the line of sight: 32GB Corsair 3600mhz.
AWD +69.99 VS Palicomp +99.99
Total price: £1617.99 vs 1615.99
13400F VS 12400F
obvious we are talking base to base., each firm has its own little extra on top what might suit that individual user.
AWD might have a cooler someone likes or palicomp might too
Case edit via a phone call on the awd, to what can palicomp can offer on site.
perhaps u need it with windows licence as ur worried over spilit milk
perhaps ur in agreement with what im saying on the 12600K vs 13400F but u im going for 13600K at that even £75 again at palicomp
Palicomp has Z board on site, AWD phone call.
Each CPU 12600K VS 13400F has its own strength, so whats the videos and see which matters most to you.
perhaps u dont care about gen4 storage, and awd has cheaper gen3 options, perhaps u dont need wifi and u can throw that in the bin on the awd., and perhaps on the awd u dont care about 32GB 3600mhz and awd has the cheaper 32gb 3200mhz
Bottom line is: Palicomp 12400F = incredible value.
Other CPU's absolutely still in the making vs other system builders and this is where the AWD 13400F sits in that area too.
because otherwise its £1599.99 for 13400F H610 RTX 4070TI at scan uk and that is the build u pick up, u go to dover, and u throw it over the cliff.
AWD-IT does have an alt, in the same changed method but 5700x and its £1526 which is obvious classic 8core 16Thread, and i cant give any credit to the 5600x what that link starts with as that is classic 6core 12thead which then i have directly compare to the 12400F on the palicomp which obvious id to directly compare it and be 1476 vs 1379 but awd 5700x is 8core is in another league but obvious still out beaten by 13400F stil, which also brings me onto AWD-IT 5800X3D at £110 more then the 5700X in that link which obvious would be comparable to palicomp 13600K 12700K ++ ranges which im not going into that league today
So AWD at first didnt look impressive, when u compare it to this, spec not the ryzen ones, but that intel 13400F has open my eyes a little bit more when i really tucked away more in depth then ever into it, and thrown PCPP threw the window. (edited)
Am I doing it right?
I compared tesco, Co-op own .. compared to major brand = disgusting performance.
but in ur case what u need is the larger wotsits
here u go: amazon.co.uk/Wal…YQ/
install 2 of these in the spare 2 slots. ur on to a winner lad. (edited)

GPU prices are still ridiculous but unfortunately that's the market we are in atm
The first batch they had is sold, however they have another batch of 4070Ti tomorrow for people who have orderd.
# limited.
So will depend on cards tbh and which cards during the month.
prices of 4070ti are quite vast between various of brands tbh as well.
"sent cheaper parts then told me since this was in T&C's it was acceptable. Also that I would have to pay for return." (edited)
and the ram is stated on post as ADATA which ive done and contacted.
SN770 is in, but weekly orders in are not as good as 3070 ranges, so they are making people a nice offer on the S70 to share the load if people desire and that helps broad range but if u decline people are getting what they ordered.
there just trying to share the items with offers as its been another hit.

I priced it up for self build and was only very slightly cheaper, I though it'd be a nice luxury for someone else to build it for me this time
They are currently out of stock of the slightly cheaper CoolerMaster 240L RGB cooler.
Mid-life crisis RGB on everything! This thing's going to look like a mobile disco
If you look at the information they're supplying (rather than what they're saying), it's still a decent card. As soon as they found out it was a rebadged 4080 12GB card, I can imagine they all had their scripts planned out before they started testing.
Nvidia have priced the card to fit in with it's place on the performance curve because they had to get it out somehow. From what I can tell, it's not "not good".
I must experience this on a 4090 for myself.
To put things in perspective, Palicomp charge £146 for the Core i5 12600K - 10 Cores - 16 Threads upgrade, where the retail i5 13400F is only around £40 more than the retail 12400f!
Lets take this 12400F at £1379.99 i did and compare it to AWD-IT 13400F
but what we need to
1) ignore the palicomp got windows.
2) put the awd into SN770... 16GB 3200mhz to begin with.
13400F / B660 M (sep wifi card added) / 16GB 3200mhz / mech case £1547.96
Were not bothered about windows, Same level ish MATX one has wifi, one added a wifi card.
16GB 3200mhz. Same case level.
ur right about the price jump on the 13400F but what we got in price terms is £1379.99 -> 1547.96
thats a gap of 167.
so TBH i can get palicomp into a 12600K at £146.... t
=1379.99+146 =1525
more then likely palicomp has a super rate on the OEM Clearance lines on 12400F
and because the 12600K isnt OEM its not as good of rate.
they are a small firm who buy end of line items, so i think that is what is being reflect here as usual and their strength.
sometimes u have to look beyond retail price.
Palicomp 12600K is marginal cheaper then AWD 13400F
AWD does come back if u take it to 32GB (edited)
Question is how much more cash do we think this will be and will ddr4 deals drop significantly by then?
I've waited for over a year now already, my 10 year old i7 3970x / gtx690 rig still chugging along so another month or 2 won't be an issue for me
so there will be build fees onto retail part basis.
obvious prebuilt may still be better due to "cards" atm 4070Ti cards are up/down in respect of versions.
for example the 13400F AWD one i did, isnt anything special on the cpu offer, so that be like the AMD QS u asked.
but we got a card with a better rate then available to the market.
DDR4 has dropped, has dropped more then u think, but two thing have happen:
its help prebuilt system builders to hide build fees vs PCPP.
vs
greedy ones what aint able to profit more.
they prebuilt has a build fee. some firms charge more then others.
if i ever do a line which is bang on part rate and looks like no build fees, something has happen behind closed doors.
could mean the self market gets it later, but could also mean it never gets it later.
if my deals are part by part basis, something is happening somewhere.
and that pretty much answer ur first Qs on that new part, its not going to be supported unless they use the new with something which is supportive.
DDR5 will improve and will slowly get better, self/pre. will and how like the cpu be in a supportive item to be top knock deal or is it just going to be a build whats fair charge build over self build methods. (edited)
despite the form of bottle in them 1080 it would still out perform alt deals with higher CPU's
very good QS mate, very serious one that.
if i took the 1379.999+40BQ = 1420 the challenger to that is:
# 5800X3d + 16GB + 1TB Gen 3 + B560 + wifi Link1 Link2 + unactivated windows (add cooler into same basket) 1410
that is a serious 1080 Challenger.
Do you think self-builders could get a similar deal cheaper?
Damn I wish I needed to upgrade lol
