They do.
I buy quite a lot of stuff of Amazon and you should see the sizes of some of the boxes for such a small item.

Btw... ever heard of Flubit?
I used it to buy my keyboard. If you're not familiar with it, you essentially find something you wanna buy on Amazon, give them the link and they hook you up with the seller but you essentially save not having to pay Amazons commission.
I saved about £8. Sometimes you can save quite a bit.

Well, could save you a few quid.
I've never not got a cheaper price than quoted off of Amazon and it is for literally anything they sell.

Worth a mooch.

My PC arrived yesterday.

Imagine how gutted I was when I realised I'd forgotten to buy the DisplayPort to HDMI cable

Now I've got to wait until one arrives in the post as my local Maplin only sold the Micro DisplayPort to HDMI cable adapter.

LOL, done that on numerous occasions, you think you have everything then a sneaky cable outfoxes you.

And she's working woop woop!

Windows Experience Rating of...

Processor 7.8
Memory 7.9
Graphics 7.9
Gaming graphics 7.9
Primary hard disk 7.9

I'm really pleased with that rating. I haven't tried the test with the overclock button pressed yet so I'm wondering whether it'll hit the 7.9 and we'll have a full house...
