I had a 5900X in my basket at a competitors site as I refuse to pay the Gibbo needs a new supercar OCUK tax. Even had paypal ready to go and hit checkout but the site locked out and took until 14:12 to refresh and they then it was marked as pre-order for the 20th Nov. Though to be fair I didn't mind as I am in no rush and can mull over cancelling if I come to my senses.

This time round, how many are going to buy those rather than wait a month for more stock? It's forecast to be better supply than some other recent launchesw**kers!

w**kers!
I hope to god no one pays that, trust me there will be plenty more stock coming, it won't be like the 3090/3080/3070 rare as hens teeth.

Just had some good news were I did manage to get an order to go through from a shop in bolton, he cant tell though if I managed to get one or if im on pre-order, but did actually tell me I should teach the scalpers a lesson and bid their listings up to stupid amounts, OK i'll get banned for non paying, but I can just open another fleabay account up with another free email address.
w**kers!
£55 for postage?! Outrageous!

So can anybody point me to some benchmarks comparing multicore performance from the 5800x to 5950x vs comparable intels ? Trying to figure which chips give best price vs performance and multicore is actually important for my main uses but everybody seems too focused on single core gaming performance
Check Jays review on youtube.

Choose your own CPUs and they don't have the 5800X,so added 3800xt as a closest comparison

+1.
The Techpowerup benchmarks on https://www.overclockers.co.uk/forums/threads/ocuk-zen3-review-thread.18905218/ have code compilation/VMs/Premiere pro benchmarks; that's the closest I've found.

Most embargo lift reviews focus on the flagship processor, frustrating, but understandable as it's ultimately the halo product that drives the most views.
Just going to have to be patient at the moment, the reviews focused on the lower tier products will be along across the next few days
If the OCUK website can't even handle a damn CPU launch, never mind a GPY launch, then they need to sort their infrastructure out.
Ouch... sorry man.
Must be time for OCUK to use Eypc

Get a different girlfriend. For sure, it'll cost you less than a £1500 PC.Trying to convince my girlfriend that I medically need a new PC for about £1500 when I'm supposed to be clearing credit card debt and saving for a house deposit is a huge uphill battle. I've even said she can have my current PC to play House Flipper on to which she responds she doesn't need a gaming PC (even though her current PC is about 12 years old, barely turns on or runs Office).
