    Very Poor Service

    They did refund postage, which was nice.

    Very Poor Service

    My DPD order just got changed on the App from delivery on Monday, to delivery on Saturday, which is great :). So congrats to DPD. However, OCUK really need to get there finger out in terms of delivery options and warehouse speed. Getting left in the dust by competitors. OCUK - 4 day delivery vs...

    Very Poor Service

    I didnt think it was appropriate to select Saturday delivery when ordering on a Wednesday. It's the despatch time that is the issue here, it's sub par

    Very Poor Service

    Ordered on 19th (Wednesday) with a delivery date of 22nd, didn't ship until 21st , so now I have to wait until Monday, all this after booking the wknd off to put my system together. Also, why is there no option for NDD, really, in this day in age? All items were in stock btw. When did it get...

    VRM Loop Help

    Hi, What is the optimal way for me to include my VRM’s into the loop, I’m not even sure if it’s worth it tbh, but it seems like a wasted opportunity. Would lower VRM temps mean lower CPU temps or vice-versa? The temps of the motherboard, PCH and VRM don’t go past 60c while gaming.

    i9 10900k OC

    Does the below look ok/safe for 24/7 OC, I will be gaming mostly and the temp never go past low 70's. I'm more concerned/confused about the Vcore, i have set 1.38 Vcore in the bios for 5.2Ghz, cache ratio 49, LLC 6 and all is stable. I will also be deliding the CPU to try drop 5-10C. FYI, i am...

    CPU Lanes - Choice

    I don't mind running my NVME off the Chipset, I'm sure my 970 Evo, which is far from the fastest anymore, will still max out, and i could replace the current NIC with an x550-t2, which only needs x 4 Lanes. What do you think? Thanks for the help btw

    CPU Lanes - Choice

    Would the above be possible if I used an i9 10900k, I can get a really good deal on one. I could use a z490 or z590 motherboard with it, although I know there are a few caveats.

    Yeah, it is expensive :/. There is one moe, the ASUS AMD Ryzen X570 ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero, no 10GB NIC built into that though, £440 :(

    CPU Lanes - Choice

    Do they get noisy? I had a motherboard a while back with a chipset fan and it drove me mad. X570 AORUS XTREME, has a passive cooling backplate and comes with built-in 10GB LAN support, think i just fell in love haha Anyone got hands on experience with the X570 AORUS XTREME?

    CPU Lanes - Choice

    Any x570 motherboard recommendation's that don't have a small fan on the mobo? I'm coming from an Asus Rampage Apex that I think was really decent/high end at the time of purchase.

    I have a custom water loop, x2 420 30mm thick rads, but the CPU will be in the loop with a 3090FE, have to hope that's enough cooling power.

    Thanks for the reply, I think I'll go with AMD this time. Does this puppy run hot?

    CPU Lanes - Choice

    I want to upgrade my system to either an i9 11900k or 5950x and appropriate motherboard, I require the following components to be connected, • X1 NVME (Samsung 970 Evo) • X1 3090FE • X1 NIC (x540) Do I have enough PCIE lanes to run all this on either setup? Thanks in advance.

    CPU Upgrade i9 7900x

    Makes sense, think I'll go with a 5950x, a nice MOBO, and some super-fast low latency RAM should do the trick. This x299 has been a pain in the arse ever since I've had it, never again lol. Thanks

    CPU Upgrade i9 7900x

    Is there an upgrade path from an i9 7900x, just purchased a 3090 FE, and I feel like I'm getting no way near some of the frames and scores I am seeing online. Maybe the CPU is a factor in that, it is currently clocked at 4.6Ghz, I have a 1000 platinum-rated Be Quiet PSU, so it's not that, my ram...

    New GPU - Loop - Heat

    The fans are Be Quiet Silent Wings 3, max RPM is 1500 Room ambient this time of the year varies between 25 -30c, both windows wide open-door shut, but it's a small room, gets hot quick. The fans are in push configuration on the radiators, front radiator takes air into the case, then top radiator...
