  • Would a 2070 super deal be better value than this? Luke has indicated there will be a deal this week sometime. I want to pretty much upgrade everything i can with a $2200 budget (450 MOBO, 32GB 3200mhz ram, gold PSU, case, 1tb m.2), and i think a 2070 super deal can accommodate this budget perfectly (2080 super deal would cost like $2750~ with all the upgrades).

    EDIT: Will be ordering from Perth as well, anyone in Perth ordered from here and can comment on how the PC arrived? TIA

    • The 2080S vs 2070S is usually a $250-$300 difference so you're better off holding out.

    • Value is subjective. It should be a few hundred cheaper.

  • Still very happy with mine I got in Dec apart from the wait times glad i got in before the prices went up tho Luke is great with communication though not sure why you went with aus post over star track express for shipping though

  • Always get super tempted by these deals, especially when I have decided this year my overclocked 2600K is finally getting moved on to file server duties.

    Two things which hold me back at this very moment.

    1) new AMD CPU/GPU this year and new Nvidia GPU
    2) I already have lots of parts I could reuse in my current system

  • Does Techfast sell separate parts such as the CPU? Im interested in purchasing and AMD Ryzen CPU

    • I dont think they sell any, you can go and grab it from Amazon.

  • Overall happy with my 2070s R53600 deal from a few months ago. Be prepared to swap out the PSU because it is really bad, I could not believe how light and flimsy it was for a quoted 750w. Also wait times and communication was a little disappointing although Luke is a champ as responding to PMs on this site. I also got the MSI mag case, the packing and cabling was very good.

  • Processor : AMD Ryzen 7 3700X Processor

    Case : Deepcool Matrexx 55 ADD-RGB 4F ATX Case (I enjoy the look)

    Motherboard : MSI B450M Mortar (Max or Titanium) (Is there much difference to go to a higher end motherboard?)

    Graphics Card : NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 8GB Graphics Card

    Memory : 32GB DDR4 [3200MHz] (2 x 16GB) [Requires B350 MB Or Above]

    Solid State Drive : 240GB 2.5" SSD (I have my old SSD which will replace this)

    Power Supply : 750W Power Supply (Will upgrade with my RM650 or CX750)

    Processor Cooling : Stock Cooler (If possible I have a Hyper TX3 EVO)
    Total AUD $2,505.00

    • Case : Deepcool Matrexx 55 ADD-RGB 4F ATX Case (I enjoy the look)

      Except it barely has any airflow, and for the upgrade price you could very easily go and purchase a decent mid tower case.

      • Is the airflow really that bad? I plan on adding the maximum amount of fans I can. I just want the basic already pre-super clean build that Techfast do.

        • The Matrexx cases come with either 3 or 4 RGB fans installed and we install an exhaust fan on the 3F variant. Airflow is excellent.

        • -1

          Cases with close off front panels never have "excellent" airflow compared to mesh fronts. You can watch some review here.

          You may be able to get enough air if the fans are turned up high and making a lot of noise, but it seems like a ridiculous trade-off for a $2.5k build.

          • +1

            @iseeyou1312: How do you know that specifically applies to this case? That review is of an entirely different case. There may be mesh intakes around the sides of the front in the deepcool

            • @blergmonkeys: Because it applies to every case designed like this, that was a playlist of reviews so you can see the difference between good and bad cases. Also, the air intakes on the Matrexx 55 are smaller.

              Although they don't say what tech they're using plus have an AIO, this specific review points out the bad airflow.

              • @iseeyou1312: I think if you’re not overclocking, you’d be fine. The review you posted comes to the same conclusion. Saying there’s barely any airflow is pretty disingenuous.

                • -1

                  @blergmonkeys: Having 4 fans to end up with system parts being 20%+ hotter over ambient than a mesh case with 2 fans is definitely not good.

                  Also, the GPU is going to perform nowhere near its potential irrespective of overclocking or undervolting. If I was building a system with a $1,300 GPU, I wouldn't want to to be crippled by overheating.

                  • @iseeyou1312: But… that wasn’t the conclusion of the review that you posted. Sure, it ran hot, but you’re using words and implying things that are not backed up by your own source.

                    Anyways, I’m not here to argue, just to stop overt misinformation. Does this type of case run hot? Probably. Will it necessarily choke your system? Unlikely. I’m sure op will be fine. If they decide to overclock, then they can change the case themselves down the line.

                    • -1

                      @blergmonkeys:

                      Will it necessarily choke your system? Unlikely.

                      Nvidia gpus start throttling past 60 degrees. An acrylic/glass front panel is guaranteed to stop them reaching maximum frequency.

                      But… that wasn’t the conclusion of the review that you posted

                      Imagine being able to read more than one source of information and draw your own conclusions.

                      • @iseeyou1312: Imagine being unable to post more than one source when their current source doesn’t back up what they’re saying.

                        60 degrees as a throttle temp? I really really doubt that. I’ve just googled that and can’t find a single source on this. Go on, show us your source.

                        https://www.techspot.com/article/1638-what-is-thermal-thrott…

                        “ Ideally you want temperatures to be as low as possible, anything below 80 degrees is normal and should keep throttling in check. Nvidia's GTX 1080 Ti, for example, has a throttling point of 84 degrees.”

                        Why do you lie?

                        Dude, your absolutism is unnecessary. The world is grey, not black and white.

                        • -1

                          @blergmonkeys: You're confusing full throttle with Nvidia GPU Boost (frequency decreases as temperature increases).

                          But I mean it's pretty easy to check with your own card, which makes me think you have no idea what you're talking about. At room temperature/below 50 degrees I can hit 2150 mhz, but at 75 degrees I can only reach around 1980 mhz.

                          • @iseeyou1312: So now you’re comparing boost to base clock? Throttling is not the same as boost vs base clock. And you should know that.

                            You’re being disingenuous and you know it.

                            And I call bullshit on your clock speeds at base, I reckon you’re overclocking:

                            https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-2080-super…

                            Base Clock
                            1650 MHz
                            Boost Clock
                            1815 MHz
                            Memory Clock
                            1937 MHz
                            15496 MHz effective

                            More in depth analysis of boosting vs temperature here: https://www.anandtech.com/show/14663/the-nvidia-geforce-rtx-…

                            So you have no idea what you’re talking about. Throttling didn’t occur until 84C. Just stop dude. You are straight up making this up.

                            • -1

                              @blergmonkeys: Only a brainlet would buy an Nvidia gpu to use the boost clock frequency. Unlike AMD dies, Nvidia gpus have a lot of oc room (like intel cpus) so if you don't raise the frequency you're just wasting performance.

                              And I call bullshit on your clock speeds at base, I reckon you’re overclocking:

                              Well, you're wrong. Also, different GPU (1660 super), the base is 1530 mhz and boost is 1830 mhz, but as illustrated in the picture it can go up to 2160 mhz (I think 2175 mhz is the highest stable oc at low temps, but I set it a little lower). It is a bit of a silicone lottery card, most cards can't oc that high.

                              Anyway, more confirmation that you've never tweaked a gpu in your life :D

                              But yes, if you want to use the stock settings, then the 83 degrees or w/e is your throttle temp.

                              • @iseeyou1312: So as I said, if you’re not overclocking, you’re fine. Just as the data I posted says. So you’re wrong and overconfident in your wrongness. Typical internet troll with a strong opinion in a topic out of context. The case will be fine as everything I have posted has stated. You started this whole thing by saying that case will dramatically affect performance. It won’t. It will just thermally limit boost performance. Who cares about an extra 5% at the most. And as you have now admitted, throttling doesn’t occur until mid 80C. It’s unlikely a gpu will get there without some overclocking or serious thermal limitations (maybe an air cooled itx build).

                                Anyways, keep moving the goal posts or admit you’re wrong. Or, maybe, just stop spreading bullshit that’s not relevant to op.

    • A B450M would be enough most likely.

  • Nice to see more vented cases coming into standard models.

  • +10

    For anyone looking at the 2080 super system. Here are my thoughts as I have had the same spec machine since late 2019.

    The Biostar B45M2 motherboard is terrible. I keep coming across this issue where i get a ‘CMOS Fail’ error, all the settings will reset and GPU fans will spin at max. The system will also not boot.
    At the risk of sounding harsh its garbage. Techfast want me to ship the system back to base to diagnose which i cant do as im working from home 5 days a week. I recommend upgrading the mobo.

    The Versa H18 is a good case, the problem is the 2080 super is a 2 1/2 slot card meaning the GPU has 0 airflow and temps can reach +80 degrees. I recommend upgrading to a midtower case.

    As for everything else, cant complain. Its a pretty powerful system.

    • I mean, as Luke has said in the past, a small percentage of people will experience parts failures. Your anecdotal evidence is not necessarily generalizable to say all of the B45M2’s are crap.

      I’ve had motherboards be DOA from MSI. A small percentage will always fail.

    • The Versa H18 is a good case, the problem is the 2080 super is a 2 1/2 slot card meaning the GPU has 0 airflow and temps can reach +80 degrees. I recommend upgrading to a midtower case.

      What is it hitting +80 degrees in?

      According to this video, it doesn’t seem like the case would make much of a difference

  • Does anyone know when the pricing is expected to bounce back as I am looking to buy a budget PC from you guys.

    • Maybe the end of the year or next year.

    • No one can predict the future. Could be a while yet. I reckon it’s gonna take a while for manufacturing to come back and demand to drop. Maybe there will be a drop with the new cards and CPUs and motherboards being released later this year? I doubt it though, seems demand will continue to be high for a while yet.

    Do you still have any of these deals above available to order?

  • just 2months ago it was $300 cheaper on your store. not a deal

    • Well I compared the build I would buy from Techfast with the same parts from MSY. Techfast came in at $2,505 and MSY came in at $2,616. I have not added the shipping price from techfast but I am sure it will still come in cheaper than buying and building myself from MSY (If Msy build it add another $80-$120). Each to their own but to say its not a deal is a bit much.

    • And, in the same period, the aud dropped, manufacturing went down and demand spiked. Supply, demand and currency. So yeah, don’t expect prices like previously for a good while.

      Ya know, cuz of this whole virus thing?

  • Any chance of one of your around $500 budget gaming pc's? The young fella has finally saved up around that much and i'm looking to get something cheap.

    • Spending $500 in the current climate would be ill advised. If he can't wait and save more money in the process, he'd be able to get a good budget build for around $750, but no one really knows (suppliers and retailers keep echoing this anyway) when prices will stabilise again.

      If you're able to buy parts individually and make it a fun build project for you and your son, the pc you get will be better quality.

      Edit: if you check and post on whirlpool in the desktop > building section, they will give some great advice.
