New chips must be incoming soon.

Nobody knows, but "soon" is a bit of a stretch, and most of us are expecting H2 at the earliest.

No chance I’m afraid even if AMD say planned to release something April which they did not but now it would be delayed until late Summer due to Corona virus to give an example as the virus has literally shut down factories in Far East and those open are not at full production due to staff in quarantine for example.

 

[Gray2233]

Shame I live nowhere near OCUK!

£350 for a 12c/24t CPU? That's £30-50 less than the 8c/8t 9700K.

True. I'm tempted by the 3900x - must resist.

 

[hyperseven]

can you buy online to collect in-store?

Yeah any saving would be wiped out by the cost of getting there.

Just for a laugh I went to nationalrail.co.uk and found the price of a day return from here to Longport... £180

Just lol at rail travel in this country.

Google tells me it's a 600 mile round-trip, so about £80 in petrol by car.

Hah.

Just had a look myself, it'd cost me £109 by rail with a warning that storm Jorge might affect the already 4 hour journey. It's actually cheaper to fly if you go on a 3 day trip at £107, pretty typical.

In store prices are in store only, so arrive and queue.

Do it!

Why must you?

 

[FoxEye]

Why must you?

Given the coronapocalypse is coming, you might as well buy now and enjoy for a few weeks before the power cuts out!

Have to admit I’ve bought a few masks and extra food that will last just in case just.

 

[tommoT.Striker]

Seriously nice price

 

[Awahwah]

I only just purchased the 3700X...

What do you think of the 3700x mate

 

[Awahwah]

What do you think of the 3700x mate

I don't think mine is the best example in turns of stock clocks, but it's better than the 8700k it replace for all round work loads.

For gaming, smoother overall even if the peak FPS is slightly lower (1440).

For gns3 and the VM for ISE, night and day difference. Now I'm RAM limited not CPU.

I still want the 12 core but feel my money would be better spent on 32g of ram and wait for the 4000 series of chips to come out, then go for a 16 core.

Thanks I'm in same boat looking at updating my daughter's pc and can't make my mind up from 3700x or just get a 3900x and be done with it while its on offer at 350 as its only a bit more than the 3700x its giving me a headache lol

Wow, what a price on the 3900x!
