AMD Radeon Battlefield 4 Shop Event Coverage at Overclockers UK

Earlier this week one of the UKs top computer retailers held an awesome event so their new and existing customers could come down to their store and join in fun. Those who attended were in for a real treat as they had massive discounts on some of the latest and greatest AMD based hardware, as well as raffles, games and more to enjoy.

Those who got their early enough were able to reap the benefits of the sales before anyone else, so long as they had enough money with them at the time. Two lucky punters were able to pick up the Sapphire Radeon R9 295X2 graphics card at just £749! Obviously still expensive, but that £250 discount goes a long way.

The AMD sponsored event drew in an eager crowd. With the temptation of winning prizes, getting to spend the afternoon playing around on high-end gaming PCs that most of us could only dream of owning and getting a few bargains at the same time is a hard offer to pass up.

All the latest technology was on display (as usual) in the store, but for the special occasion they’ve put up signs around the shop with exclusive daily deals.

ASUS R9 280X graphics cards for just £149.99! Although I must admit I would rather have the 295X2 for the same price.

One lucky owner now £749 lighter leaving happily with his new GPU.

Hungry shoppers = unhappy shoppers, so the OCUK rocked up with a stand full of Domino’s pizzas to keep them satisfied.

Outside the team also set up an Airsoft firing range, those who got their early enough were awarded with raffle tickets for the prize draw later in the day and they even hosted a special system building demonstration to help educate their customers on how to look after their rigs.

If you missed out on the OCUK AMD day then you really missed out on a kick-ass event. Keep an eye on their Facebook page and website more often and next time they have an epic event like this, you can be there!
