Hi there


Well its being a long wait, but it is finally here, we are taking pre-orders as of now and we shall be shipping orders on a first come first served basis on March 2nd, so next Thursday.

All CPU's have FREE delivery enabled on the entire basket and pre-ordering now saves you £10 on each one as well. We also have a range of motherboards available and of course all DDR4 memory upto 3600MHz is compatible, you can buy faster and just down clock it.

In our testing we found 2400-3200MHz the sweet spot as not all mainboards can operate beyond 3200MHz except for the more flagship orientated mainboards.


So without further delay here are the processors, Ryzen 7 aka Zen is sure to be a huge success and win AMD back a lot of market share from Intel:



AMD Ryzen 7 Eight Core 1800X 4.00GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail @ £488.99 inc VAT



YD180XBCAEWOF, Eight Core with Sixteen Threads, 4.00GHz clock speed, 14nm FinFet Process, 16MB L3 Cache, Dual Channel DDR4 Controller, 3 Year Warranty

P.S. Those wondering why they are showing discount is because I scheduled them for TWO today at £10 of each one, that is why just to truly put them in the spotlight, next Wednesday the prices will go back too the original prices I set but FREE shipping shall remained enabled. :)

Hmm, so if I pre-order it'll be £10 cheaper but I haven't seen reviews so I'm not going to risk it. How long will free shipping remain enabled though?

Its so tempting to just jump right in. I'd really love to make some videos on the topic of ryzen but unless I jump in now it'll probably not be worth it :( Too difficult!

Well I can tell you supply is pretty tight, so those ordering now will get the first wave, so anyone making video's should get quite a lot of views as I doubt the product will be freely available until mid-late March. :)

Gibbo, Will there be any more motherboards going up before the launch or is that it?

Also what would be your recommendation for RAM?


Yes more boards will go up this week, Asus and Gigabyte are strongest, so those are live now. MSI and Asrock shall follow in a few days!

Memory, any DDR4 works just fine, 2400-3200MHz is sweet spot, but if your cheaping out on the motherboard keep the RAM speed under 3000MHz ideally. We have found the top Asus boards can hit around 3200MHz, though officially 3600MHz is supported. :)

I was thinking along the lines of the GA-AX370-Gaming 5 paired with Team Group Dark Pro 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz Dual Channel RAM

Also gibbo, has anyone tested these boards? My question is, i was going to order the asus crosshair and use my current noctua nh-d15s. I received the nm-am4 mounting kit today and looking at it, i dont think it will be compatible with the motherboard due to the capacitors round the cpu socket, has anyone (8 pack) tested any of these boards with noctua coolers?

It will work, will it run at 3200MHz, unsure, we only managed to get Crosshair upto such speeds, but our mainboards were samples and a few weeks ago, retail version will have more upto date BIOS. So buy the faster stuff now because at some point you will be able to take advantage.
