Going with the 2400g with build in graphics cant afford the gfx card atm maybe in the future also need more ram so money will likely go into that first. Excited with my first build so much choice out there its mind blowing appreciate the advice

PS and LR, are not core hungry. I'd either look at the 2600 and a dedicated gfx card (photoshop does love gpus) or go for the 2400g and then upgrade next year (with the 2400g). The 1600 looks good too price wise .. I'd look at a low to midrange dedicated gpu with as much vram as possible (for ps & lr) Also the the 1700 maybe worth getting as that should sink to 200 shortly Depends on your budget

Kinda. You can get the Mobo and Board for 176.99 and the PSU and Case for 79.96 so only a squid in it, and there's a load of other PSU/Casew combos. All under Today Only on the same linky

Expired now :(

Looking for a photo editing suite photoshop and lightroom primarily some light gaming something with built in graphics that is future proof for a couple of years

Gone!

"Refurbished" covers a wide range of sins but the vast majority of 'refurbished' items like this come from 'buyers remorse' returns to online retailers (DSR/CSR stuff) or retail/catalogue overstock (aka TK Maxx's entire inventory :) ) No manufacturer actually refurbishes anything - they simply check all the bits are there, quickly test that they work and repack em (often in a plain box as in this case - which deters bulk resale by making their non-brand-new status more obvious) Ear Wax - possibly but I guarantee you've had "new" items from online retailers and stores which have previously been 'used' - a LOT of DSR/CSR returns are resold as 'new' - clothing in stores has been tried-on before - headphones have been demoed and so on End of the day - if the warranty is good and you feel the seller will honor it - why not?

People who buy these report getting brand new units.

These are great - I have a pair which I got for £60, so this is a decent price if you dont mind the dried sweat/ear wax etc.

Refurb as new? Does that mean all ear wax has been guaranteed to be scraped off it before reselling?

12m warranty, so steal at this price. Heat

refurb of an already dodgy line of PSUs how hard up do you have to be?

CWT psu's are dire, I bought one as a temporary one whilst my far better superflower was in for RMA. I got 1 month out of it before it randomly would switch my PC off. Despite being a 650w it couldnt power 2 samsung 850 ssd's i57600k and a gtx1070.

Cheaply made PSU, don't skimp on the power supply, get something from the Tier 2 or Tier 1 list.

Would you buy one if they have so many returns. It' saying something.

any VR good to run at least Full HD games yet? any idea? (cheeky) I have heard of Project Santa Cruz...maybe on market street I could invest some money,but not sure how to :{

I'm not an electrical engineer so I've no way of judging whether a flash is expected or not. From an outside perspective the different effects of the two failures could simply be due to different components failing. Where it mattered - not damaging anything else and failing cleanly instead of intermittently - it seems to have done it's job. For what it's worth I've owned both expensive and cheap power supplies. My current one is the Caseking/OcUK own brand version of Sirtec's SFX platform because the more recognised brands were taking the silly decision to equip their supposedly small form factor PSUs with cable braiding, which makes the cables less flexible and harder to get past the many obstacles in a tiny case. Said case cost me £170, so I wouldn't particularly call myself a cheapskate. I just don't buy into the whole 'buy it because the individual components are better' mentality. There have been many examples where such a mentality has developed and manufacturers have exploited it by over-speccing stuff past the point where it serves any function. Jewels in watches, overdrive systems on monitors, refresh rate on TVs and so on.

I don't know much about VR, but as I understand it you need a decent gfx card (gpu) to power a VR set? Unless it runs off other hardware such as the PS4 version.

do you recon peops could give up buying latest graphic cards if they would have virtual reality set? (skeptical) (pirate)

it's not completely clear cut, but a good rule of thumb is that if a PSU can achieve higher efficiency, it's made with higher quality components. though it does depend on your usage, the efficiency gain of a gold or platinum certified PSU is almost definitely not worth it, but the quality it implies is. didn't actually see this linked anywhere, but this is the PSU Tier List that you'll hear mentioned in any PSU discussion.

For anyone still looking at this, I've just ordered one for delivery even though originally it was in store only.

Pretty sure there's no dedicated macro keys on this.

Try instore collection

Looks like it's now out of stock online! Sorry! ;(

Sorry, there is insufficient stock for your cart. /sadface

This RAM has been available at many points over the last six months at this price level, so I'd question how much of a 'deal' it really is. That said, considering the current market, this isn't a bad deal. I note that buying two sticks of this 8GB variant together would set you back at least £160, which puts it in a good light. Personally, I still can't justify pulling the trigger at these inflated prices. It just feels wrong. Here's to a really cracking deal popping up in the near future (cheeky)

Ram prices used to go up and down wildly. But they went up a couple of years ago and never come back down. Price really has doubled. But that's the price these days. Annoying.

£70 for 8GB of DDR4 2400?!?! Why is this hot =/

You're amazing.

no, 2 I also bought 4x4 2666mhz for £25 on ebay

With the right kind of blu-tack, an unlimited supply of Craft beers and the help of Harry Kane's shoulder anything is posible.

is this compatible with my s7 edge? so i dont need to upgrade to s9

LOL.... If you have to ask , "If this will fit" ... Best if you don't own a P.C . Or Google is your best friend Heat added as good price , and the priceless comments on here

I think iMacs use laptop memory (SODIMMS) and this is the larger desktop RAM. The speed isn't usually an issue as it will run at the lower speed automatically although I don't know how Apple do things!

I have a 2017 iMac the spec is currently 2400 memory , will putting in 3000 balls it up?

avoid budget psus because any possible problems will be invisible and could have very bad physical consequences, rather than just crashing. you want to a psu that's basically overcapacity for what you're doing. Personally I go for EVGA these days because of good warranty, my PSU came with a 10 year warranty.

Even a starving hamster could feed a 1050 Ti! The 1050/1050ti cards are ideal for just plugging into many cheap pre-builds because of the low power-draw, simple connection, cheap prices, and huge gains. You won't be proving much by successfully running it on a CX500 "500w" PSU. At least not unless it kicks the bucket shortly after. It's a good brand with a decent reputation selling a budget quality product. However, for you, with a 1050 Ti, your risk is low, and really what it comes down to. If you plan on doing anything intensive with well-performing hardware, then the majority of PSUs under £30 aren't just "budget", they're dangerous.

My power supply arrived today. Someone earlier in the thread described it as a lightweight supply. Believe me, it is anything but. First impressions are it is a quality build. The cables are plenty long enough and they provide a cable tie kit for management. I chose to avoid budget, sub-£30 power supplies. But, I could not justify a £80+ supply. First impressions are that this fits my needs perfectly. It really does look like a quality bit of kit. But, i haven't used it yet. As I said before, if it doesn't stand up to the demand, it will go back and I will learn a lesson. Based on what I have seen so far, it is pucker!

Having worked at a major PC component retailer, and seeing the amount of cheaper PSUs that got returned after going bang (even from big brand names). Believe me there's a reason they are cheaper.

What do you do with the other 14 hours? Do you sleep?

same keyboard cheaper on scan for £114.50 Scan sell refur keyboard. the same one as above is £85(non rgb is £50 ish). it say factory refurb so i expect it to be good as new https://www.scan.co.uk/products/corsair-gaming-k70-lux-rgb168m-colours-back-lit-keys-cherry-mx-red-mechanical-gaming-keyboard-factor

Where is the original for £50 less? also scan refurb?

Not a bad price but I personally think your better getting the original k70 RGB for £50 less, or a refurb Lux from Scan for £80

Cheapest I can see, I guess people are voting cold because its a lot of a keyboard

Link broken/deal removed

Bought this last week from there. Cracking keyboard.

I've confirmed with ccl, all keyboards are Uk layout as per the description. Photos are from the US site.

Got excited till i saw the stupid non-uk standard layout & the return key :(

Love it but would really like some simple media keys

I dont know why this is so cold. just because you can get cheap ram sticks from other brands it doesnt mean this isnt a good deal. you pay for the quality. 16GB of this ram is £170-£190 most places. how is everyones basic arithmetic here?

I would neither spend that much, got ADATA 32GB two weeks ago for 143.14 on Amazon :D Anyway if you need it it's the less painful option compared to the other ridiculous prices.

Dunno that still seems pretty through the roof to me. Maybe it just looks more because it's 32GB rather than the 16GB kits that are more commonly seen. Yesterday saw Amazon UK had some 16 GB kits for back order at £114 but sadly gone now. Personally that is about the most I would pay...
