      Refer to rtings.com, X90K performed slightly worse than X85K. Can anyone comment on this?

      So I purchased from this very deal and received the X90K 65" ‘damaged box’ yesterday, and lo and behold the screen is damaged. I had seen the reports of it happening before so recorded the opening of it, but still can’t believe my luck. Fingers crossed I don’t get stuffed around.

        Sony will schedule a pick up and provide a copy of the shipping label. Make sure you check that the label is trackable. Sony wont replace/refund until they can track the status of the return shipment.

    Go to Deal
    Coupon Code: APAYDAY3

    Was looking for an upgrade to my 34" Ultrawide VA monitor. Bought this a couple of weeks ago with $60 eBay code and price seems to drop further with Afterpay sale. I've no experience buying Acer and this is the first, comes with 3 years manufacturer warranty.

    The only review I could find for this can be found at this link. While this release is more recent to Acer XR382CQK, the XR382CQK has more reviews possibly due to its gaming focus. I cannot find any information to confirm they are from the same panel. You can find details on CB382CUR display specs. Note, the weight without stand is ~9kg.

    Panel Size: 37.5"
    Panel Type: IPS
    Resolution: UWQHD (3840 x 1600)
    Refresh Rate: 75Hz
    Response Time: 1ms (MPRT)

    Go to Deal
    Coupon Code: APAYDAY3

    Lowest price by far for this well specced X670E AM5 motherboard. After the 15% off Afterpay discount code, seems to be the cheapest X670E mobo listed in Australia currently. VRM can handle any Zen 4 or Zen 4 X3D CPU without issues. Plenty of I/O and WiFi 6E onboard. Supports Thunderbolt 4 Add-In PCIe card as well with its TB4 header. Has PCIe Gen 5.0 x16 slot for GPU and Gen 5.0 x4 slot for primary m.2 SSD

    Seems to be a genuine discount as most stores are selling it around $519 plus delivery charges (with Umart/MSY having a $499 sale C&C), so starting price before discount has not been unreasonably jacked on this listing.

    5 available but they to appear to be adding more stock as sales are made like some other listings during this sale

    I was looking for a good PSU for a good price, not many good deals on, but after some research I saw this. I just purchased one too. It's on the Cultists PSU tier list. Reviews seems pretty good everywhere and it has a nice noise profile. Currently 199 on Amazon, and lowest $184 according to PcPartPicker.

    Reviews:

      It is starting to get better, but it needs to be under $1,500 to even be remotely worth it. Its such a gimped card compared to the 4090. It shouldn't even be called a 4080 imo. 4070ti at best is what it should of been called and priced under $1,400

      • scud70 on 21/03/2023 - 20:54

        Aside from the 4090, all other cards, AMD and Nvidia are named a tier (arguably two with 4070ti) above what they would normally be in previous gens… Pretty depressing where the GPU market ended up post covid

      • Wicko on 21/03/2023 - 20:54

        How is it gimped?? It's actually really efficient, honestly if you ignore the price its one of the best GPUs out there.

        Can you elaborate on how this card is gimped?

        • scud70 on 22/03/2023 - 05:48

          Basically NVIDIA could have released a better gpu as the 4080 and it didn't, the same goes for the 4070ti where the die size and cuda cores are closer to a x060/x060Ti series. I think when sinner says gimped it's not that their performance is bad but that NVIDIA could have released more powerful cards as these models… AMD are no better either naming what traditionally would be 7900xt as xtx and the 7800xt as the 7900xt… Performance is good but yeh … Both are trying to artificially keep prices high to clear the older model stock and keep the GPU market closer to the covid period… Very disapointing.

    Probably not as good as the Sony FE 50mm F1.4 GM but this deal is almost 50% of the cost with probably over 95% of the performance (???). The Sigma is definitely not perfect. There is chromatic aberrations, longitudinal chromatic aberrations and focus breathing. But I think if you're not a professional, you probably won't notice this. Other than that, it appears to be sharp edge-to-edge even at wide open apertures.

      what's sigma?

      Decent for those who are happy/willing/able to spend a kay on a lens for non-pro use

        What is a pro and non pro use btw?

        • Notacommie on 11/04/2023 - 15:56

          Pro is Professional who is dependant on quality of the product to earn living and anything less than that is non pro

            @Notacommie: I got a call from a photographer today who has 45k followers on IG, all his work is mostly TFP. If you look at his work, he's most likely in the 0.5% of photographers in Australia with great portrait work. He is starting out as a corporate photographer and wanted to know if he's charging the client correctly.

            Based on your theory, he's just not pro? I don't think so. There are some creative pro people out there too

            I know the person wanted a deal on f1.2 or maybe he thinks highly of it and probably believes he has customers who can tell the difference between 1.2 and 1.4.

      Previous life had camera stores and Old Sigma=Rubbish.
      Art series Sigma are best value for money and at times better rated than original. I had a Nikkor 85 F1.4 sat in silence while I used the Art 50 F1.4 Cant speak for Sony but better rated by DxoMark than original Nikkor Lenses so my primes all changed to Art series.

      • casualusercts on 11/04/2023 - 13:44

        Yeah, old Sigmas on dSLRs had lots of issues with focusing - had a mate who went through about 3 Sigma 50s trying to get one that focused consistently and failed.

        Much better on mirrorless and with the Art series.

        Such good value.

    • casualusercts on 11/04/2023 - 13:43

      Damn, I didn't want to buy one this soon but can't pass it up at that price.

        Alternatively, I found the Samyang 50mm F1.4 AF Series II on Videopro for $880! It is over $1K everywhere. I was set to order the Samyang because of the smaller size then this Sigma came in. I think for another $100+, I would rather have a more reliable AF.

      Hoping for a sub $1000 deal on the Tamron 28-75mm G2 at some point, seeing mid $1100s on ebay, or maybe the Sigma Art 24-70mm

      • Davesday on 11/04/2023 - 17:07

        I believe the Sigma Art 24-70mm F2.8 is better optically but it is larger and heavier compared to the G2.

        • Herk on 11/04/2023 - 17:16

          Yeah I've had both in my hands before, the Tamron feels much lighter. I'm honestly so split it'll be which ever has a great deal first. The 24mm over the 28 is definitely a win too, I feel like I want to be in that 24-28 bracket more than the 70-75, but $1410 with this deal versus $1150 for the Tamron.

          • Davesday on 11/04/2023 - 17:37

            @Herk: Do you absolutely need F2.8? If yes, I think you won't be disappointed with either one. If not the FE 20-70mm F4 has better range.

            • Herk on 11/04/2023 - 17:44

              @Davesday: Yeah F2.8 feels right for me. I think the Sigma would be the easy choice if it was the same price, but Tamron being $250-300 cheaper and lighter is tempting. Definitely regret getting the 55mm 1.8 prime zeiss lens though. Upgraded from Canon to Sony and really miss my old lens.

              • Davesday on 11/04/2023 - 18:39

                @Herk: Yeah Canon does have some nice glass but AF on the Sony is amazing.

                  @Davesday: Yeah I was using a Canon 7D (the original version) for a little bit past its lifespan. Wanted to stay in Canon but their new lens policy is just too archaic, Sony just has too many good choices

    • GReeeeN on 11/04/2023 - 22:03

      Thinking of going for a 35mm and an 85mm for my first 2 sets of prime lens, thoughts on how they compare to something like the 50mm?

      • Davesday on 11/04/2023 - 22:42

        Really depends on what you're trying to do. Generally this is how I use the lens/focal lengths. You shouldn't be limited to how they are used but instead follow your creative needs.

        1. 16-20mm - Landscape, architecture and astrophotography
        2. 24mm - Landscape, astro or environmental portraits
        3. 35mm - Full body portraits or street photography
        4. 50mm - General walkabout, half-bodied portraits, street photography or product photography
        5. 85mm - Half-bodied or shoulder to head portraits

        If you want a general prime lens, then 50mm? Really it will be toss between 35mm or 50mm. For me, I'll definitely get a 85mm lens.

        BTW DCXpert has the Sigma 85mm F1.4 DG DN lens at a discounted price using the same Ebay coupon codes. Good luck!

    Merged from eufy RoboVac X8 WiFi Twin-Turbine Robot Vacuum with Laser Lidar Map $551.65 ($538.67 eBay Plus) Delivered @ eTrade eBay
    Go to Deal
    Coupon Code: APRL15, APRL17

    Original Coupon Deal

    Eufy X8 (not hybrid) robot vacuum on eBay for $649.00, less 17% for Plus or 15% for non-Plus. Seems to be the cheapest it has ever been. It has 4000Pa suction, LIDAR mapping, 600ml dust box. No mop, no auto-empty bin (I didn't want either).

    My Eufy 35C is over 2 years old now and still going strong so they are quite reliable. The X8 is probably not as good as some of the competition, but a great deal for this price. I looked at spare parts (battery, side brush, main brush & filter) - for X8 they are $115, and for iRobot J7 $258, and for Roborock S6 MaxV a whopping $325. So the ongoing costs for the X8 are substantially lower as well as the low up-front price of these models.

      Still Waiting for a good deal on the hybrid, not sure how they’re maintaining the high pricing given all the advances in competition models

      • CyberMurning on 13/04/2023 - 12:05

        what is the hybrid can do that different from the usual ?

          Hybrid just has the mop, just the drag a wet cloth around type

      • Andy01 on 13/04/2023 - 12:14
        +1

        All the reviews I looked at said that the mopping was pretty average at best, and I don't want something that just drags a damp cloth over my floors and potentially my carpets.

        The only "mop" robot I would even vaguely consider is possibly the new top-of-line Roborock with a vibrating "scrubber" and the ability to lift the mop when it hits carpets. The basic mop on the hybrid would be a complete waste of time I think.

        • Japius on 13/04/2023 - 12:18

          Yeah I just want something to do a pre-mop wipe, I have the eufy wetvac w31 to do a proper clean which has been absolutely fantastic. The x8 just seems overpriced compared to others, should be sub 499 for these specs IMO but they’re getting there
