Something a bit different today. We have secured limited numbers of GTX 1070 8GB Founders Edition graphics cards. They were installed in systems for a gaming event and then not used since, so have barely been used. Although they are out of manufacturer's warranty, we are offering a full 1 year warranty on them as part of our assembled system warranty. Image of the card here. They are not available for separate purchase.

If you're interested in this GPU with another CPU let me know and I'll look into it.

We are pairing them with Ryzen 5 2600 and 3500X processors. In terms of performance, these deliver around 25% better performance than a GTX 1660, or 13% better than a 1660 Super, making the value proposition against the currently sold-out 3500X/1660 deal at $686 very strong.

Ryzen 5 / GTX 1070 Founders Edition Gaming PC

Ryzen 5 2600 or 3500X
GTX 1070 Founders Edition (1 year warranty)
Biostar A320 motherboard (B450 Upgrade $79)
16GB 2666MHz RAM
240GB SSD
550W PSU
Leaper Mid or Flair RGB Case

Price: $720 (R5 2600) or $770 (R5-3500X) + Delivery

Link: https://techfast.com.au/products/amd-ryzen-5-2600-gtx-1070-f…

These systems should start to ship in the first week of March onwards as stock is incoming. More generally, due to current supply inconsistencies and import restrictions due to coronavirus throughout our region, our current shipping times may average 10-14 business days until things get back to normal. A large number of systems shipped yesterday, today and will be tomorrow to catch up on some earlier orders.

Other current higher spec deals:

R5-3500X with 2070 or 2080 Supers from $1044
R7-3700X with 2070 or 2080 Supers from $1469
i7-9700KF with 2070 or 2080 Supers from $1630
R9-3900X from $1699

Cheers
Luke

UPDATE: TechFast's shipping has changed from flat to calculated. Title deal has been updated to reflect.

      Now that I know what NoS means, they are per the description - used extremely lightly, if at all, but not sealed.

          They're actually pretty quiet. Had two of these in SLI before swapping them out for a 1080ti a few years back.

          • elusive on 13/02/2020 - 18:41

            @combatant: I'm still using a 1080 FE. The fan's near silent at foot level.

            • abctoz on 13/02/2020 - 22:14

              @elusive: yeh you mostly just hear air moving, they use a higher quality fan or something

              also with the 1070 FE you're guaranteed samsung memory(not true for custom models) which overclocks higher. downsides are these run hotter than custom coolers, and being nvidia they're are annoying as hell to open/clean

  • FalseProfit on 13/02/2020 - 16:04

    Why does it say ..[16G/240G].. in title but 8GB in description?

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 13/02/2020 - 16:27

      Similar to above - none of the changes I made initially saved, but all should be as per the title now.

      • ceebee on 19/02/2020 - 15:35

        when I click through to the link, it still says 8gb for me, not 16gb

        • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 19/02/2020 - 16:06

          Bundled Memory is definitely set to 16G. Sure you're not looking at the 8GB after the graphics card?

          • ceebee on 19/02/2020 - 16:15

            @luketechfast: Sorry, the specs weren't loading for me correctly, so I was going by the title, which says 8gb — "AMD Ryzen 5 2600 | GTX 1070 Founders Edition 8GB Gaming Desktop PC" EDIT: so I was assuming it meant RAM but I guess you're referencing the gpu in the title. Also the specs loaded for me on the second click through and I see the 16 now, thanks!

    How come Luke can do these awesome prices. Other suppliers cannot even come close.

      For some reason people think mining is bad even though gaming does far more damage.

      Wear is being caused by repeatedly heating up and cooling down. Mining cards just sit there at a constant performance level.

    Holy crapballs this is such a good deal. the R5 3500X and 1070 is such a great pairing for 1440p gaming.

      Those are the something like the words we used when we figured out our pricing.

    • mochariffic on 13/02/2020 - 17:51

      maybe on older titles.. i have a 3600x/1070 strix and it will play anything 1080p but 1440 is flakey on newer titles unless you drop the quality a bit.

      1070 is still an amazing value card in this bundle :)

      • Sutra on 13/02/2020 - 18:51

        Which titles and how much fps are you getting?

    • cyruslol on 13/02/2020 - 19:09

      You will need a RTX2060 super or AMD 5700 for decent 1440p gaming , my MSI 1070 is very struggling on 1440p ultrawide

      • beeze on 13/02/2020 - 19:15

        2060 pull ahead by much?

      • xyron on 13/02/2020 - 19:32
        +2

        1440p superwide is 4.95 megapixels, regular 1440p is 3.68 megapixels. you're not comparing apples to apples at all here. (ultrawide is pushing 34% more pixels)

        1070 is still fine for regular 1440p gaming on a mix of medium and high settings. ultrawide is a whole nother kettle of fish (recommend GTX 1080 minimum).

    • Jugganautx on 13/02/2020 - 19:37

      1070 for 1440p lol

    • Switchblade88 on 13/02/2020 - 18:06
      +1

      If you specify in the notes box (I think) then yes they're very happy to ship as parts only.

      However, that means manufacturer warranty only applies to the components and not the overall build. Luke can clarify this though.

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 13/02/2020 - 18:13
      +2

      Switchblade is right - To request your system unassembled, just enter SHIP UNASSEMBLED in the Notes field on the Cart page before Checkout. Please note that our 1 year assembled system warranty will not apply to the system you have assembled, as we did not assemble it, but component manufacturer warranties will apply and we will assist with these if required. This will apply to this 1070 GPU in this instance.

      • Twirlypiglet on 13/02/2020 - 19:22

    Hey @luketechfast!

    My mum ordered a Core i7 9700F | RTX 2070 SUPER on the 23rd of Jan, she's flying out this Saturday morning so sent an email to follow up earlier this week. Callum responded saying it would make it to her in time, can you confirm? Seems unlikely at this point so I'm trying to figure out if I need to head home to make sure the delivery isn't left unattended when she leaves (she's away for a month).

    Thanks!

      lol me too man im in the same boat hey.. just received mine ($689 from this deal: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/512615)

      so it's $30-$80 (+ shipping, $30?) so $60-$110 difference for a GTX 1070 and 240GB SSD instead of my GTX 1660 and 120GB SSD.. i think i would have preferred this deal, especially after reading:

      In terms of performance, these deliver around 25% better performance than a GTX 1660(gpu.userbenchmark.com), or 13% better than a 1660 Super(gpu.userbenchmark.com), making the value proposition against the currently sold-out 3500X/1660 deal at $686 very strong.

      your not going to buy a ps5 right away are you? hope not. what if months later or a year down the line they release a ps5 pro? plus you dont want to be a early adopter..first wait and see if many bugs or issues come out then jump in..way i see it when ps5 comes out i would wait atleast a year minimum before even looking at getting one. so for me figure it doesnt come out until december 2020 if i could even aquire one with demand and cost..then wait a year to see how they play out quality wise and to see if PS screws people over with a pro version or whatever..thats 2 years from now. i wouldnt wait 2 years when i can get better graphics and same if not better quality now. and being able to upgrade how ever i want. no brainer man. jump on this now

    It's cheap for a reason. used GPU's with blower style coolers, insanely cheap motherboard, ram, ssd, case and unfortunately also PSU. same with all techfast computers, you are getting what you pay for.

      Everything there is upgradable for those who want the option, other than the GPU whose origin is clearly stated - in other builds that too is generally upgradable.

      I can say from experience that is not true at all. I was skeptical so I asked for parts only with no build. Everything came brand new in the box including an expensive motherboard. As for this particular build, it clearly states what you’re buying.
