Hi
I have decided on all the parts I want built into a PC for me. Two parts are on pre-order according to the item page.
How do I now get my shopping list built into a complete PC by Overclockers and how do I find out what the build cost will be.
Will they accept my order if the parts are on pre-order or will I only be able to order what is in stock. I don't mind waiting for the parts I want.
I tried ringing them but the person on the phone could not answer my questios here
thanks
Steve

If an ocuk employee
Couldn't answer that it's a bit peculiar
Whatever answer we give
Is kind of irrelevant as we don't work for ocuk

But from previous orders
I have ordered a list where some parts
We're out of stock/or preorder
They still accepted it
Just I had to wait for the other parts

They should be able to pass it over for you, previous posters have done it not long ago. So far as I know they charge £150 + 4% (of total build).

thanks again..............does it look ok?
I think I already gave my suggestions in another thread, but:

AMD Ryzen 5 7600X
Bequiet Shadow Rock 3
I'd be inclined to drop the cooler and get the 7700 non-X and use the stock cooler of that (7600X doesn't have one).

Corsair Vengeance EXPO 32GB (2X16GB) DDR5 PC5-41600C40 5200MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black (CMK32GX5M2B5200Z40)- two of these
I'd get 64GB (2x32GB) rather than running 4 sticks, since a lot of users have trouble with this.

The Zotac 3060 offers a 5 year warranty if registered within 30 days otherwise it's 3 years for an extra £10.

thanks, found them and saved £30. What difference do the speed numbers make as in CAS 40-40-40-77
This is the only article I'm aware of that covers content creation specifically:

I'd drop the £120 windows 11 as you can install this yourself and pick up an OEM key for under £20 and maybe use the difference on a better GPU.

My basket at OcUK:

Total: £423.98 (includes delivery: £3.99)​

I just put them in the basket, did not see a configurator
Yeah there's a configurator
For various levels of pc
Office,gaming,high end type of thing
Probably for amd or intel builds too

Would still have expected when you phoned ocuk
To have been able to sort something
Over the phone tbh

Configurator/custom build link
