How is the quality of the AMD B350M Motherboard?
I am not a big fan of MSI
My motherboard is biostar i think. Seems to work fine.
0% future proof.
Anybody got any suggestions for a budget PC for general use without any gaming? It is for my parents & just needs a wifi dongle/card included which I'm assuming would be an extra cost
Go to techfast website and buy the cheapest one with an included monitor. Then buy a usb wifi dongle from MSY or officeworks for $30 ish. Easy and will outlast any laptop
Build your own if you can it'll be cheaper. You do NOT need a GPU if you are not gaming.
Try to buy a Athlon 3000G or Ryzen 3200G.
This is very good deal,
you can try to build your own with partpicker, then the price for the CPU is about $170 non-tax
Everything together, this is even cheaper than the parts.
How is the quality of the AMD B350M Motherboard?
I used to build PC long time ago and I observed that getting a good motherboard such as ASUS was the key to avoid trouble.
Biostar. Not worth it IMO.
Agreed
I guess you get what you pay for!
Is it worth the $129 upgrade from the Biostar to the MSI Mortar B450?
I would have preferred to upgrade to ASUS but too expensive
if they added Afterpay to their site.. I probably wouldn't be able to resist this.. because 4x payments broken up over 8 weeks I would hardly notice the $$$ missing from my account.
Yea same here. If its afterpay or humm. Don't wanna get more of these accounts as i believe its got a impact on your credit rating so..
Does the Leaper Flair RGB case have a side window?
Yep, image updated.
possible to upgrade to 1660ti? :)
No, we're only getting Supers. The price versus performance makes Ti a bit irrelevant unless we get special pricing.
Just checking Ram, is it 16GB as per OzBargain title or 1x 8GB as per your website specs?
Base spec - CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3500X - GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 6GB - RAM: 1 x 8GB 2400MHz DDR4 RAM - Motherboard: A320M - SSD: 240GB - PSU: 550W - Case: Leaper small form factor case.
Updated meta field - 16GB 2666, 120G SSD, Leaper Flair. Thanks.
Thanks Pulled the Trigger
Is it possible to get any good deal on build without a gaming card? I only need a PC case to study/dev and watch Youtube.. :(
I already own SFF Dell Optiplex and it did the job, however, I have random issue with it and want to replace it
They won't sell without the GPU.
Honestly i'd just buy it and sell the GPU, end up paying roughly $389 + some cheap GPU to throw in there for browsing/youtube since the 3500x does not come with integrated graphics.
Of course you could get cheaper, this PC is overkill for what you want it for, but it's an amazing deal for the power and if you want to game in the future all you have to do is throw a more powerful GPU in there.
What cheap Video Card would you recommend ?
I live in Perth and how easy would it be to sell the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 6GB Graphics Card for $300
Thanks TA and Luke
Mate of mine who lives in country NSW computer completely died
this is perfect for him and meant i could help a brother out :P
Is it worth getting a 144hz monitor just for this GPU? Or should I just save and get a 60hz monitor instead?
Yeah 144hz monitor is a good idea. There's a viewsonic 24" curved for $199 that would be a good pair.
Code doesn't seem to work - has this expired?
What do you guys do for the Windows OS
free trial until u annoyed by watermark then buy a $20 key
Happy New Year. Pardon the noobie question. What do I do about getting Win OS?
lwman
I'm pretty sure these tech fast PC's come with the free version of windows preinstalled.
It comes with an non-activated copy.
95% of the features will work abut eventually they will put a watermark on the bottom corner telling you to activate.
Yes… By 'free version' I meant non-activated.
Does this pc come with inbuilt wifi? Or will I need to purchase a dongle?
No, the mobo doesn't have on board Wi-Fi.
Ok, thanks!
@luketechfast Is there some kind of flexibility? I have another setup currently that I want to change into a itx build. I like this deal and I'll put it in my current case but I need an ITX case then. Would it be possible to not build this pc into the case provided and exchange that for an ITX case (if a few bucks has to be added sure..)
Out of scope for our current business model, sorry, though I understand fully the desire.
I was 50 50 with this due to ehat i wanted eith an ITX setup etc. But had a look around and decided to grab the special but I'm kind of confused about the order and specs as to what it says here and the website and my email etc. Who can i email to verify what I'll actual be getting..
Did anyone else get some strange result when buying this? I was 50 50 to buy or not to buy.. I decided to see if the code still works and it did but then i noticed the soecs changed.. It said the following:

That is a relly noce system and not sure what happened but decided I'll take it IF I can get that else perhaps just get a refund. So emailed them today asking to confirm what i will be getting and it is in fact the one in this header on ozbargain.. but did anyone else get the same issue. Would have liked that pc lol. At least i got my refund
For some reason the code still works, but yeah, pretty sure it was just you who got that issue… Would also love if my PC could come shipped with those specs.
Has anyone had their orders fulfilled yet?
nope, emailed today asking for an update.
Nope nothing
Got a Reply this morning stating it would be sent out Next couple days
Great to know, saves me sending an email too! Thanks for the update.
Thank you Trump2020, very cool
Update: my order was shipped moments ago.
Update: arrived yesterday, all good
Mine was shipped today
Ordered on the 4th Jan. Order not fulfilled or sent yet. Anyone else in the same boat?
FYI ordered on 3rd Jan and still waiting, no further update from being confirmed.
Too honest for that
