    It seems to be the season for these offers - I found this similar offer over at CCL...

    There's little pressure to upgrade CPUs these days really. Mine's over 3 years old now, & I don't envisage upgrading again for at least a couple of years, maybe more.

    Re: Gigabyte and Intel announce UK cashback bundle promotion

    Never worked out what cashback is about anyway... "You pay X and we give you 20% of it back"??!! Whassat all about? Why not just drop the price by 20%, I keep my money and you get my custom?

    I guess they invest it for a short while before giving it back and keep the interest, or something?

    Not really looking for an upgrade and pretty happy with my AMD/MSI ensemble for now, but I'm more interested by the future upgrade deal, myself.

    They are counting on you forgetting to claim in the right time period or not being aware of the promotion! Whereas if they offered everyone a price cut, everyone would benefit automatically.
