Doing an upgrade to my setup and ordered a new AMD Ryzen 9800 X3D. Opened up the box to find a neat little extra gift!
Thank you Overclockers UK, it was sweet!

Damn, I think I got 4 to a pack, otherwise super good deal
Don’t take candy from strangers
That’s nice of them to send you a CPU with your Haribo order
I have also received Haribo when ordering parts from Overclockers.
PC Case Gear in Australia do the same thing its honestly the best
PC case gear in Aus does this too lol. Same pack and everything.
The CPU is for you. The Haribos are for me.. đ
Good thing they’re not the sugar free ones
It makes the bitter surprise sweeter when you receive a product different from the one you ordered. At least there’s candy!
Glad that it isn’t a pack of rice & pasta
i got the same when i ordered my 9070XT from Overclockers! is a nice surprise
When I buy orders from a company called pc case gear here in Australia they also throw haribo pack in!
From a previous post in my feed, I learned that you should not eat them but let them grow.
Don’t tell me you’ve been playing candy crush with this cpu!!
Overclockers, it’s always nice to see that they still do this tiny gesture that can mean so much.
They’ve been doing it for years, love overclockers
It’s a nice little thing they do, but do be surprised if they try to fuck you if you ever need to do a return.
I’ve had plenty of transactions with OCUK that were fine. But all of the issues I’ve had with PC parts returns have been with OCUK.
SCAN have always been excellent, and so are always my first choice. OCUK does tend to have some stuff that SCAN doesn’t though.
I once bought a mobo from Germany and they sent me pasta ( Iâm Italian )
I get lollies when I order my work shoes.
Was the surprise the fact that you got a 9800X3D and not an AMD A8 9600?
Youâre supposed to heat them up to make the adhesive
Prusa, the 3D printer company also sends one. The instructions for assembly even tell you to take a break and eat the candy
Nice, I get those sometimes when I order from mindfactory in Germany
Overclockers, PCCaseGear and Super Cheap Auto all do this.
A lot of tech companies drop in some Haribo’s dunno why lol
Damn my stupid add thought for a second âwow why is the cpu and box so bigâ until realizing it just a small haribo bag (I need a coffee now đ)
Got this as well when I ordered from Overclockers. Knew that a few businesses within the automotive space did it, but to see it when my PC parts came in was an incredibly nice gesture!
Would have been funnier if you titled the post
> A little surprise when opening up my new Haribo
Yeah, Overclockers are some nice dudes.
Ha, completely forgot they do this, but was a nice little surprise when I also opened my 9800x3d and RAM shipment yesterday, to see a wee thank you note and haribos.
Jimm’s (Finnish) sends the same candy on every order đ€
Knew it was overclockers straight away. Theyâve been doing this at least 15 years now.
Those are new thermal pads. They squish flat between the cooler and IHS.
Was going to comment âoverclockers uk?â Got one with my pre build from them 2 weeks ago đ„đ
I donât even need to read the post I know thatâs from overclockers UK đ€Ł
Globaldata and PCComponents in Portugal also do the same lol
One time I was building a PC for work and in one of the boxes of parts the seller sent us some âtoysâ of rubber cockroaches⊠after I shit myself I threw them away. Itâs nice that you got candy though.
