Website Visual Refresh (Report Bugs Here)

The text for a free item overwrites the image making it hard to see, and it looks like there are some formatting issues with the stars for reviews.

A lot of clearance lines are missing andand the majority of prices are not reduced, nothing new there then.

It's absolutely stunning in comparison to the old site. Really great work on the design guys!

Going to get shot down for this but it concerns me as to how many issues there are within the core of this site... From a company with over £2m in the bank last annual return and this site being the main income stream you'd expect a tight QC on a final release. Surely there can't be that many pages to check? Most of them fall under templates in which the variables are dropped in? :rolleyes:

So I think the overall consensus is, great design and lovely refresh! But a number of basic bugs, formatting and alignment issues, crazy spacing and random German text not updated...

Which in all seriousness for a professional outfit like OcUK, you should have proper QA, bug testing and sign off procedures internally before release. So far it seems like the last web redesign, release it as it is, then just ask the public to point out the apprentices' basic balls ups.

Btw guys I do mean this in the nicest way! OcUK is a great company, we have an awesome community here that are happy to help and point out any issues. But the apprentice designer needs to stop releasing stuff without testing it properly. It makes the company look very amateur IMO.

Please don't let this detract from a lovely design I think it's great - just number of basic things should be ironed out for such a big company before public release.

Just my 2p for what it's worth.

I have used OCUK for years as the website was great, and I agree a redesign was needed BUT.....
What happened to the filters on a search? So say if I search for "Noctua", how come I cannot not filter/list by Name/Price/Date etc? It makes it harder to actually find the product I want!

Also how come I need to now scroll to the bottom of the page to go to the next?

Like it better then the old one. The options are much easier to see.

Looking good :cool:

Might be being blind, but can't find the "Today Only" offer on the mobile site. Where should I be looking?

If I recall correctly from yesterday, go to Deals then click the banner that days Today Only. URL is https://www.overclockers.co.uk/this-week-only.

In my opinion, using a widescreen display, half the bloomin area is covered by the adverts on the side

Surely in this day and age, sites should be more dynamic in how they present content as in are relative to browser window size.

The OCUK website used to do that however in November 2012 they locked it to fit on low res screens and added the adverts to take up the extra space on high res screens. There were a lot of complaints at the time that quickly got deleted lol.

Thanks for the reply, but still doesn't show me the "Today Only" offer, just shows me the "This Week Only" offers. Currently the only way I can tell the Cryorig C1 is on offer today from the mobile site is to select to change to the desktop version - which obviously isn't then the easiest to navigate on my little Galaxy's screen!

Text is overlayed ontop of it'self in various places of the site such as the water cooling config.

Looks smarter

Thekwango · 15 Nov 2017 at 13:07

seems to be a lot of 'sizing' issues - over all though I think it looks a lot more visual appealing. still not sure on functionality though!

Sorry for the radio silence guys, we are looking at this thread, thank you so much for the feedback as of yet.

you know the caskeing group owns Noblechairs, this is why they push the brand so much, it is logical for them to do so.

Yes they own it but pushing it so much, actually detracts from anything good they get out of it. Starts to annoy people. Also they do DFS sales tactics, increase the price of the chairs for a legally allowed time limit then reduce the chairs back to the price they were a few weeks prior, then claim a "MASSIVE reduction/Sale" etc

I actually bought a chair from them last year(post brexit) and I saw it on last weeks deal of the week, reduced to the price I paid for it last year, hardly a saving.
