Overclockers Discount Codes & Deals

Didn't Kepler's drivers went into legacy only support last August? Maxwell can't be that far behind. Also some people only want new. CEX are actually pretty good at replacing stuff especially if just bought and especially if bought online. However, against that CEX are terrible at actually testing hardware. Anyway this whole thread is mostly pointless. Some are convinced this is the worst card ever and anyone pointing out that at this point in time, it's not actually that bad gets shot down. That it read released her and now, possibly. But that it read designed for any of that? Very unlikely. I don't think people realise how long the lead time on these things is and taking out the media coders, choosing a 64-bit bus, and the tiny amount of cache; these decisions were made years ago.

Something like this, even though it's also too expensive and much better prices can be had elsewhere such as eBay. Readily available, two year warranty and 10% cheaper. https://uk.webuy.com/product-detail/?id=sgranvi970gtx4gba

Actually if you've been an OcUK forum member for some time and are active enough, you get free postage, so for those of us with that, this really is £199.99, and really would fit the bill. Again, I'm not saying its a great card, but it's the best available at that budget or anywhere near in new, especially for those with PCI-E 4.0; where frankly it creams everything else new at that price currently. It's also considerably faster than any other current or predicted APU, so if you need a system now, it's the best options, even if a bad one. Whether we like it, the costs of logistics, base components and fabrication have skyrocketed, along with distributors etc all taking a cut. This has very definately been made to achieve a cost, and likely some of the decisions really were as much to make it unattractive to scalpers/miners as they were about profit, or AMD could undoubtedly have made themselves a bomb on yet another card that miners/scalpers would have loved, but they have intentionally cut this one to pieces in moves that in some cases have saved them pennies. That suggests there was a real intention here, and not just cost cutting.

Yes, why not, if it doesn't look good value to the individual then they can vote cold, it's a personal choice how people vote for a "deal".

Not arguing that but it still doesn't make it a good product. I'd rather get an APU and wait but I appreciate other folks may need a card now so this is the only new option. Well this card is £209.89 so no use in your hypothetical scenario 😋

Sound like your obsessed with this scam company or you work for them (lol)

Lol what does this even mean? You allegedly had a bad experience. On the flip side of that, Scan are arguably the most reputable pc company in the country...

Good for you (y)

Thats amazing service and honestly

So the series X was announced in Dec 2019 and H1 was announced in Feb 2020. Designing a case and getting the tooling and manufacturing in place to even produce a prototype to show isn't realistic.

How silly of me, it just occurred to me: Scam. Haha, sorry.

Any good gaming laptop for around £650 ? I don’t know nothing about laptops but definitely I don’t need extremely powerful laptop for that price.Thanks in advance

Even when they do come out I'd expect the desktop cards before laptops so if you need a laptop now, maybe just buy that instead, a good 3060 laptop (well-built with a decent CPU and higher TDP) will cover most scenarios for most gamers. I personally wouldn't bother with a 3080 laptop as they're basically desktop 3070 chips, barely related to a real 3080 in any way, but priced extremely high - mostly because these cards are so power hungry they don't translate to laptops well.

Yeah, they are all at it, but none of them have such an easily apt name as Overclockers!

Both them and Scan seem to overcharge on RRP, which is shameful Imo. At least this is the best price (kind of)

This @ £150 vs 2TB Latest NVMe SSD @ £250-300 For storing games, and mostly Unreal Engine 5 (lots of large assets). I don't want to spend extra for the sake of it but I would want to invest in the best for my scenario. Am I going to get any noticeable performance improvement using a more expensive 7000MBPS SSD?

same price as the crucial p5 nvme 2tb

Thats one person, doesn't mean it is Yeah, now the price has hiked up fair enough, although its better to just wait for the price to drop .

Overclockers have their own forum board but if you are a registered user with either 100 posts they give you free postage on all orders https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/

Tell me more details, please.

Hope you enjoy the new GPU. I got the 3080Ti FE back in August. It should come with an adapter cable. I’m feeding mine with a couple of 6+2’s from my fully modular Corsair HX750.

They are out of stock, theyve just matched the price via their spider bot.

I've just bought the 850X . Think it's the quieter model. On a different note my 3080 ti comes today. I'm changing from a 3070 ti which has 2 x 8 pins and the 3080 uses 3 x 8 pin. Is there any special way I need to wire them and can anyone recommend some good braided leads? The leads I have in there seem to be 6 pin plus 2 pin is there any reason for this and why I shouldn't use braided 8 pins?

I posted before I saw the delivery, (d'oh, thought it was free!) so that was added on. I did see one on Amazon but it said it was out of stock.

Is the 850x supposed to be better?

Noice

Unfortunately no longer available. 😔

I use this curved monitor for cod and it’s improved my gaming. It’s more natural on my eyes and let’s me see more of what’s going on than a flat monitor. Whether that’s scientifically true or not, I don’t know. But that’s how it feels and my scores have risen too.

Yh turns out I just had to go into settings and change the Hz setting for my monitor. Ty tho

Depends on what your graphics card can support. Also consider what cable you’re using. Mine was stuck at 60mhz with a cheap hdmi cable. I changed it to a Vesa certified display cable and got 165mhz no issues.

No one monitor is better for any one game. The common Idea Is that more refresh rate Is better then more resolution for First person shooters. In reality most of us are not good enough to have a truly noticeable benefit, but it will look smoother !

Unless I’m much mistaken, this games bundle should also be provided as it is an eligible card at a participating retailer: https://promotion.asus.com/en/uk/radeonbundle

This is £249.99 after cash back, can you get the 2070 for £279.99? Have you got a link?

Ah cool, thanks

Actually have a further update on this as I've just activated an AMD reward against a CPU. After using the verification tool I was provided an Epic key for Borderlands 3. Not sure whether the same applies to Ghost Recon, that may require a UPlay linked account.

Got a gigabyte rx 5700 xt for £332 after a 5% ebay code and cashback from complete savings. Already received the £15 monthly bonus and the other £38 has been sent to my bank. Maybe wait until black Friday and get cashback from them? Got those free games as well

No because the price has increased. For some reason it has been 'unexpired'

Has this been expired because its cold?

I completely agree with you :)

Obviously a good price for a 1080 ti card right now, but please do keep in mind that the PCB isn't the greatest due to the size limitations they were working with - https://youtu.be/NvGffI8Jxd0 Basically it should be fine as long as you pair it with a good quality PSU, and don't expect to be able to overclock it very much. Hopefully we see prices fall further, one to watch out for could be the MSI "Armor" 1080 ti; the cooler is very inadequate, but the PCB is solid, and if you were to liquid cool it or use something like the excellent Raijintek Morpheus II cooler, then you should be golden.

Also I thought I would add... this is the lowest this card in 80 days :) the lowest it has ever been was 616.79 from Aria PC back in December: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/dHcMnQ/zotac-geforce-gtx-1080-ti-11gb-mini-video-card-zt-p10810g-10p?history_days=120
