This is your regularly scheduled reminder that you should probably never buy from OCUK due to overpricing. Thank you.

I find it interesting that Microsoft is late to the party with Windows 8 Pro surface. I think that the price point is something that Microsoft wants to keep from the media on such a crucial launch of a line of new products.

After Caseking took over they are somewhat better in both their pricing and customer service. I don't know how much better compared to the previous.

For example:
http://www.scan.co.uk/products/intel...ache-35x-ratio
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Intel-Genera...1351676&sr=8-1
Intel Core i7 3770K 3.5GHz Socket 1155 8MB Cache.....
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...d=6&subcat=567

At £240, its only £5 off Amazon, and competitively priced compared to most other etailers.

With grammar like that, you should be banned

I don't mind OCUK, they're not as bad these days as they used to be.

Aye, they aren't always terrible, but I have yet to find them selling anything at the best price available unless they're the only one selling it. They also have an £8 delivery charge, which usually guarantees you're better off getting it (whatever "it" may be) elsewhere.
