    Cheapest price on an i7 920 and/or 6GB DDr3

    Ok so was gonna do a CPU/MOBO/RAM overhaul for ~£350 and was originally gonna go i7 860 with ~£90 odd 1156 MOBO with cheapest 4GB DDR3 RAM I could find.

    HOWEVER...I might be getting an awesome deal on a Foxconn FlamingBlade GTI 1366 (£22, its a misprice which has now been fixed but theyve taken payment so it might just come through!!) . Could sell it on or if I can get a good price on a 920 and 6GB of RAM I might upgrade down the 1366 instead of 1156 route...

    Cheapest/best option so far I've seen is scan...£206 for the 920 and 6GB kit of RAM for £90....Sure that I've seen 6GB sets for cheaper though?!

    that would make a grand total of £318 and it will presumably be better performer than the 860/1156/4GB ~£350 option....

    Any cheaper prices for the 920 or RAM kicking about?

    Ta in advance

    I reckon you should be able to get the RAM cheaper. This is the RAM you meant? Hell of a deal considering the corsair dominator kits have rocketed in price and are now 40% more expensive than they were 2 months ago.
    Maybe by christmas everything will be back down in price, but that kit looks good, especially considering good manufacturor/good speed/looks nice

    nah £200 is par for the 920, I'd be weary of any cheaper ones.
