Not the biggest saving ever, but free shipping makes it deal-worthy (imo). Total saving is at least ~$15.

Also cheapest motherboards by a few dollars, also with free shipping.
Examples:
Asus Prime B350M $119 (Retail $129)
Asus Prime B350 Plus $148 (Retail $149)
Asus Prime x370 $228 (Retail $229)

AsRock X370 Gaming K4 $199 (Retail $219)
AsRock x370 Taichi $289 (Retail $329)

Order a MB+CPU for a free Razer mousepad (valued at $19).

NOTE: Click products for correct prices. Link provided incorrectly shows retail prices until you access respected product pages.

TIP: Seems the entire order is free shipping still if small extras are added. Added a Samsung 960 Evo no problems, which is currently only $318 for the 500GB variant. Decent little drive for those fancy m.2 slots.

    normal price is not a deal

      $4 saving + free postage /= normal price.

      If you think ~$15 saving isn't a deal that's your opinion, though it's still cheaper than normal price. Also note some motherboards are as much as $10 cheaper, so that's further savings - $25+ total not including the mousepad. Just checked a few more motherboards, some are as much as $20-40 cheaper, for a total saving of $50+ for the combo not including the mousepad.

      • spackbace on 06/03/2017 - 19:52

        If you were living rural, sure you'd love the free shipping part. But majority of people I'm sure would spend the $4 to get it same day from the local pc store ;)

          For sure, though even for areas that are able to store pickup…

          AsRock x370 Taichi ($329) + 1700 ($469) = $798 elsewhere.
          At ShoppingExpress $289 + $465 = $754 + FREE Mousepad.

          Depends heavily on what you're getting and if you need delivery, though savings are $4-44+.. And the mousepad.

          Edit: When I mention retail prices I'm referring to prices listed for every other store on Staticice, ie mWave, PCCG, Scorptec (not inc. cashback), PLE, CPL, etc.

          @dyl: Who need a mousepad these days? I would rather have it not sent at all.

          I think you over estimate people. If I want to listen to a CD I have on the bookshelf a few meters away I will torrent the album and play it through Winamp rather than stand up and get it and place the disc in a drive.

          I'm not going to pick anything up in no pc store, when they will hand deliver it to my front door :)

          @sumoyoshi: some live by "if you want it done right, do it yourself" which applies to AusPost. :P

          Still, I agree - personally prefer delivery, even if it is 1-2 days extra time.

          @JetBombat:
          Agreed, though being Razer branding it would be easy enough to sell for ~$10 if you know a razer fan.

    7700k is better choice for gaming

      Look somewhere else or wait for the R5 chips then,if you don't use the threads you wont miss them. Who buys a 8C/16T just to game anyways?

        tons of xeon e5 haswell-e on ebay，if u need an editing or vm pc. 7700k has better fps for gaming，and get a ga mobo and install hackintosh u get 3k+ macpro

          You're comparing a used product to new,even if we're ignoring the fact that most of the comparable used chips still cost around the same as a equivalent Ryzen chip at retail .

          It's a pretty compelling choice especially since X99 is a pretty expensive platform to adopt.

    • troyww on 06/03/2017 - 21:43

      Totally agree that the 7700K is better for gaming , not sure why you were negged . Thats what pretty much every bench mark I've seen shows .
      Already ordered my R7 and mobo as I use my computer for things other than games .

      • Wally Simmonds on 06/03/2017 - 21:46

        I think he was negged because most people already know this to be the case, and it was delivered in a way that could be construed as trolling.

        • TheContact on 06/03/2017 - 22:26

          It was a straight factual statement, as you freely admitted. Hardly trolling.

      • [Deactivated] on 06/03/2017 - 23:22

        I assume was negged as he sounds quite ignorant assuming these are intended purely for gaming performance. If he explained it like others here have it wouldn't be negged.

        Still, I didn't neg personally - no reason to.

      • xuuj on 08/03/2017 - 09:16

        They're not really gaming processors. They are great workstation chips

    • [Deactivated] on 06/03/2017 - 23:20

      As others explained, 8c/16t isn't intended for top tier gaming performance. These are more marketed at streamers and/or content creators that are encoding live while gaming. Think of it like having 4 decent cores dedicated to gaming and another 4 decent cores for encoding/etc, rather than 4 beast cores just for gaming.

      The Ryzen 5 series should be the 7700k competitor.

    • [Deactivated] on 07/03/2017 - 10:41

      If anyone actually wants a 7700k… PCCG currently has a good bundle
      7700k + Asus ROG Strix Z270F + Corsair 2133Mhz C13 2x8GB for $900 delivered (checked many post codes, seems to be fixed rate postage)

      It's around $900 + postage elsewhere (on fishy sites), so you basically save on postage and dealing with fishy companies.

    Wow, thanks for this. Picked up the Taichi - had it pre-ordered at PLE for $329.

    How about some 1080/1080TI lovin, Shopping Express?

    • [Deactivated] on 06/03/2017 - 23:31

      Is free shipping still working? Unsure if it's ended or if I'm simply not seeing it at checkout as I've already used the offer once.

      Edit: tried in incognito, still works just seems to be once per an account.

    Tempted to go Asrock over MSI but have always had issues with Asrock boards

    • [Deactivated] on 07/03/2017 - 03:42

      Same here, I avoid Asrock completely these days. Personally went with Asus, always been impressed by their upper-mid-tier boards.

        Especially when they auto install bios updates and then brick the board.

        • motion2082 on 07/03/2017 - 09:17

          Asus are ok but the crosshair is having a few teething issues with gaming benchmarks on ryzen. MSI had issues with BIOS 13 but now they're ok on 17. Got this info from Gamernexus youtube review. To sum it up, all mobos have teething issues as they didnt have enough time to prepare for ryzen.

        • [Deactivated] on 07/03/2017 - 10:28

          Can't see OP so don't know what the main case was, but the comments seem a little like user error… For example someone saying their machine randomly tried to BIOS update after they overclocked their memory to 3200Mhz. This makes no sense at all, only thing I can think of is the individual has clicked/bumped the BIOS flash button with the USB still installed, then powered their machine off/removed the USB as they've not meant to re-flash the BIOS… That or they're completely clueless and it's simply a failed overclock but they don't know how to reset BIOS settings and Asus isn't managing to reset its self.

          Edit: Yeah, I agree they could be more user friendly… But a lot of these comments are minor problems I've had before and solved in under 10 minutes of Googling. If you're not willing to do that, why custom build and overclock in the first place????

    Next couple months will see the release of Ryzen 5 and Vega! Looking forward to that!!!

    As someone who still has their i5 2500k for the past 6 years, the 1700 is looking very tempting.

    I think it's the best value chip right now (overclocking can get it quite close to 1800x performance). And you will be future proofing due to the additional cores. Hopefully it will last me another 6 years :)

    • [Deactivated] on 09/03/2017 - 12:29
      +1

      Upgrading from an FX 8350 personally, the 1700 looks like a really good chip. Apparently the early batches are overclocking just as hard as an 1800x, so it's virtually the same at this stage.

      • Haters.Inc on 09/03/2017 - 21:00

        Yep that's what I've been reading too, so it doesn't really make sense to fork out the extra for the 1700x or 1800x.

        These Ryzens look like absolute beasts for multitasking (gaming + streaming + 20 other apps open at the same time). I think the whole 1080p performance debacle is way overblown. It's not like these CPUs will ever come close to struggling in 1080p gaming.

        • [Deactivated] on 09/03/2017 - 21:22

          It's paying for the guarantee of stable higher clocks, but in reality the guarantee of 3.0-3.7 @ 65W TDP is actually equal to (or even more premium than) 3.6-4.0 @ 95W.

          Also note the advantage of power savings and lower heat output if you don't overclock. My main reason for purchasing was for a lower TDP, so the 65w is amazing - higher performance than my 8350 at approx half the TDP.

  • Hornpub on 10/03/2017 - 07:40

    i dont see it is a good bargain…

    • [Deactivated] on 10/03/2017 - 12:30

      Aw, but you do see it's a bargain still. ;)

      Jokes aside - the bargain is more the combination of deals. For a motherboard+CPU combo you can save around $40 for some combinations, with around 15-20 minimum saving… And you get a free mousepad.

      • Hornpub on 10/03/2017 - 17:47

        will this cpu be any cheaper later of the year? or just like how pascal released like?(not much drop after even almost a year until the ti)

        • [Deactivated] on 10/03/2017 - 20:07

          I don't believe they will in all honesty. The hype will die down once R5 and R3 series are released, though by that time all stock will be sold anyway and it'll just be a few left sitting on the shelf that someone will still eventually happily pay RRP for.

  • songjing on 13/04/2017 - 01:36

    Personal advise : Don't buy from Shopping Express

    I bought a WD 3TB HDD on early March and it only last for 2 weeks.

    Shopping Express took nearly 2 weeks to replied and asked me to do the quick format and all will be good. Yes quick format is ok but normal format is not whee it hang in 10%. Obviously that HDD is damaged.

    When I asked for return to get refund, shopping express requested return all in original package. Will any one keep the box after opened? No, the box already took away by recycle truck.

    When I asked for return with the box from Post Office, they don't respond at all.

    That is a dodgy and irresponsible seller. Very bad aftersell service

    • [Deactivated] on 13/04/2017 - 11:01

      Did you request it to be processed as a DoA return? Seems like they've assumed it's change of mind rather than DoA.

      Do a disk check and send them the results then have it processed as a DoA or warranty return.
