Wow. Never have I regretted coming back to a forum like this. The 3080 was sold for £800. I bought a bargain 3070 but now my Alienware 27" 240Hz needs more frames. There is logic; you just don't have all the facts. Don't make me quote Michael Jackson.

But this is a UK forum. Also, currency doesn't matter. It's all about the ratios.

In reviews you don't see value propositions. They tend to wack all the numbers at you and assume you know what's best for your price point or performance point. It was my quick attempt to help a community with either efficiency or bang for buck. But then again, in some situations anything more...

Just received my 4070 SUPER from Overclockers (Thanks!) I used this graph below to work out that it currently has the best performance per Watt and Best Performance per £. Enjoy! http://www.frequencycomputers.co.uk/shot.jpg

4090 and 4080 not good value for money. Waiting for 4060.

One 1TB NVMe. Don't need anything more.

Every generation is a bridge to the future.

Alderlake is a significant jump as a platform. I needed something now and I've waited enough. There is always something incrementally better around the corner. This is best for now.

The trouble with gamers is that it's a luxury purchase. If you're mining, there is no point in waiving because a GPU in the hand is worth two in the bush.

Nice. I went for this kit. Same speed and timings. I wasn't going to pay double for G.Skill ones that have one incrementally better timings. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/294546539262

Noctua 12cm Redux is good. 12700K might be the limit for it though.

Cos everyone has opinion about getting other Alder Lake models or AMD 5000 series.

Keep debating guys. I'm happy with my upgrade from 6700K to a 12600K.

My 3080 fits into my Z690 board! http://www.frequencycomputers.co.uk/2.jpg

Pushing the heat UP through my 2x140mm fans above. Just seen 1GB/s on my SSD.

Do I win? Built and installed Windows 11. Finally, after a year of waiting. http://www.frequencycomputers.co.uk/1.jpg http://www.frequencycomputers.co.uk/2.jpg 3.69GHz on a Z690. Nice.

12900K. People still have more money than sense. The 12600K was always going to be good enough for 99% of people. May the tax man catch up with them.

Congratulations for having 30 years of redundant information.

You forgot mining.
