Most of my ram has been sold. Both my 970s are up on ebay now and i have someone interested in getting both of them as a set last night. Had one guy message me and said he was interested in my ram for £20 when i was trying to get £40 and I hate lowballers so I put his question up on my listing with my response which was 'Nah'

Ive had my first time waster over a week ago -- he decided to bid on my ram despite not having any money to pay me. he won the auction said he'd pay in 3 days and was never heard from again. He's been on ebay 3 years but has 0 feedback. I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt and not leave feedback about him not paying till the last second as i opened up a non payment dispute on ebay and since its my first time dealing with a non-payment, I totally missed the window to leave negative feedback.

You can't leave negative feedback for a buyer regardless of if they pay or not, I shit you not, good isn't it?

Does anyone know where the hell in the UK I can buy a Thermalright Le Grand Macho RT CPU cooler? It's one of the best air coolers in the galaxy yet Thermalright has no official UK stockists for this cooler. My highly imminent next build will be at least CPU air cooled, given how the smaller node processes require less 'balls out' cooling. The Le Grand matches most twin rad AIO's.

See? Best cooler in galaxy...

Are you serious? I thought if you left feedback early enough you could leave negative feedback

Yeah - I had seen that one - the only one. Not the RT version with fan though. Not certain I want to have to source the 140mm fan separately with clips. Want it all in one box...

Now for the other crap...

dont call it crap, im trying to sell it for you on the Xeon thread..... :banghead:

the54thvoid · Nov 28, 2016

Well, ordered that fanless Le Grand Macho from ComWales... Says in stock but half an hour later, order declined... Not in stock.

I cannot believe you cannot buy that cooler. One of the best in the world, not for sale... Anywhere....

What da schooples?

If its this hard to get hold of, how hard is it going to be to get different mounting brackets when new sockets come out! Seems like you'd be better off going for a Noctua as they often release new brackets for their older coolers

Ever thought about contacting thermalright directly to enquire if you could purchase one from them directly???

BOTH 970s SOLD!! One went for £160 while the other went for £164. I made about £140 selling my ram so my GTX1070 is pretty much paid for.

::EDIT::

Maybe i should be a dick and message the guy who wanted to buy both cards but refused my offer of £160 each per card, I told him id throw in a flashy Nvidia SLi bridge worth £30 for free... His loss i guess

w00t!

Got my ebay Lian Li case today - excellent condition and happy (£150 instead of £220 and 100% pristine condition)- not used ebay in years.

Will be the host of my next Zen/Vega or Intel/1080ti build.......

Double post is worth it but when I do upgrade I'm not selling my old parts.

They're all being given away on TPU.... Fuck capitalism. :rockout:

I was looking for one of their coolers as the reviews are great- couldn't find one that shipped to the UK

A couple of German sites have it on order for December. I might try a UK shipping attempt in German....

Should of said this earlier... I needed a new PSU :toast:

I need to build my new system first. And if Zen doesn't deliver, I'll have to ponder Broadwell-E or Kabylake.... (or Skylake even). Then if Vega is MIA, 1080ti or wait...... Still, have case, shall PM @Knoxx29 about the CPU cooler once we know what socket mounts are relevant.

Have you checked eBay?
Found this one in America listed under ballpoint pens

Believe it or not yes - I have :laugh:

. They sell Mont Blanc pens, not just pens... The cost plus packaging and hidden import from HMRC will make it well over £100 I fear. I can wait...

A friend is looking to put together his first gaming PC. Hes on a budget (£500-600) so Im trying to get him the best value for his money by going secondhand market.... Ive already got DDR3 which he can use. but Im looking for a mobo, CPU, graphics card and powersupply. Both my 970s are gone so i cant give him one of those. He's still a casual gamer, but Im trying to get him into the world of PC gaming so something mid-range or half decent will suffice....

PM me with what you got and i'll get back to you.

Surely you can build a very decent new build for that kind of money.... and don't call me Shirley!
