3900X-3080-LAUNCH

Hi folks,

Wow, busy couple of days! Thanks to everyone who has ordered so far. Due to popular demand, here's the same base spec as Friday's launch deal, with a Ryzen 9 3900X and the PSU bumped up to the Giga Aorus 850 Gold as per recommended pairing. This will run well on the B550 Gaming X, and upgrades to X570 (Biostar GTA) and X570 WiFi (likely Asus Tuf WiFi or equivalent) are available.

You will be buying this with the MSI Ventus 3X OC shipment, scheduled to arrive in October. As with the Gigabyte October cards, there's no fixed date for GPU delivery as yet, so systems will ship as soon as they're ready after the cards arrive. You're locking in the earliest available shipping date.

If you bought one of the 3600 or 3700X systems and would like to upgrade, please email [email protected] and we can issue an invoice. The upgrade will work out the same as this pricing according to what CPU you've ordered, so there's no need to reorder or go back in queue. The PSU upgrade will be included.

Due to how we're allocating GPU stock internally, the Gigabyte cards aren't available with this new PC, but if you've already ordered one and are upgrading your CPU, you'll keep the GPU you've already ordered.

Ryzen 9 3900X | MSI RTX 3080 10GB PC: $2545 after 3900X-3080-LAUNCH

  • Ryzen 9 3900X 12c/24t processor
  • MSI Ventus 3X OC RTX 3080 10G
  • Gigabyte B550 Gaming X ATX motherboard - X570 and X570 WiFi upgrades available
  • 16GB 3200MHz RAM (brand/model may vary - various upgrades available)
  • 480GB 2.5" SSD (brand/model may vary - various upgrades available)
  • Gigabyte AP850GM 850W 80 Plus Gold fully modular power supply
  • MSI MAG Forge 100R ATX Case

Here's our Ryzen 5/7 deal if you haven't seen it yet:

Ryzen 5 3600/R7 3700X | RTX 3080 10GB Gaming PC: from $1995

If 3080 isn't your thing, this quick shipping 3500X/RTX 2060 system is still available:

TechFast Express Ryzen 5 3500X RTX 2060 Gaming PC: $1099

    Again I've used the Galax 3080 even though the MSI card has a much higher retail price for the comparison, and the cheapest fully modular 750G PSU on there.

          -4

          Main reason they are probably skipping would be because of the number "4", is considered an unlucky number in Chinese because it is nearly homophonous to the word "death".

          • BLB1984 on 21/09/2020 - 18:43

            @Blazi3: Doesn't explain why they used 4000 wording for laptops then.

            They reckon the actual reason for the change is to bring laptop and desktop in line with each other so no confusion

            • papachipi on 22/09/2020 - 18:18

              @BLB1984: That's because the 4000 chips found in laptops are not actual Zen 3 architecture

          • DoesntEvenMatter on 21/09/2020 - 18:51

      Zen 3 announcement is expected on October 8. Worth waiting for since you won't get this build till October anyway.

    • drew442 on 21/09/2020 - 14:16
      +1

      It's a B550, you could buy the CPU later. Wait for XT refresh if they do that maybe?

      the 12-core zen3 chip will probably arrive at the 3900x launch price of ~$950AUD. That's almost +$300, not pocket change.

    • Mistredo on 21/09/2020 - 16:46

      When would be the best time to build a new computer? November/December?

      • awaiko on 21/09/2020 - 17:23

        There is never a 'best time'. Things are exciting now with the new Nvidia cards, and AMD is going to do something with their CPU lines soon, but if you need a computer now, then the best time is now ;)

        • Mistredo on 21/09/2020 - 18:14
          +3

          Not all times are equal. 😉 I don't need a computer now, so if AMD is releasing the new stuff soon, it would make November/December ideal?

          • Diji on 22/09/2020 - 22:00

            @Mistredo: Whenever thorough benchmarks are made for the new AMD stuff, basically. If your budget is lower then also throw in the RTX 3060 (not sure if there's a rumoured date on that). If you want to wait even longer you can wait to see how Intel's Rocket Lake does.

            So consider building in November at the earliest, IMO.

            Also might be worth mentioning that given the global pandemic, waiting longer might result in cheaper prices faster than usual depending on how much the industry is impacted right now. I could be totally off-base on this bit though.

        • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 21/09/2020 - 14:25

          Assuming you mean not compatible? It is compatible but I wouldn't offer a 3950 on it. I'd offer a higher tier.

        • BradH13 on 21/09/2020 - 16:37

          Compatible and optimal are two different things. I wouldn't slot a 3950X into any B550 board. I would even hesitate in putting one in a cheap X570 based board. You're asking a hell of a lot from a budget VRM configuration.

      Yeah build had to be sent back. First tried mailing out a motherboard believeing that was causing the issue, it was not. Ended up just sending it back to fix, they arranged the courier to collect, diagnosed fixed and returned in a timely manner proving regular updates.
      Hoenstly as far as these this go, it happens. How they dealt with it was great.
      I would recommend them personally.

    • jaybo on 21/09/2020 - 17:09
      +2

      i had a graphics card come unseated in transit despite being quite well packed, looked like the courier was exceptionally rough with it all basically - i resolved the issues myself but did email techfast with photos (mostly to cover my ass in case it died in a month or so) and they were super responsive and offered to do the right things in order to resolve any issues, i got 2 systems from them (one for my wife, one for my nephew) and both have been fine, i'd definitely recommend them.

      just remember that at the basic specs of a lot of these deals, you are using cheap components, it's not going to be the biggest, baddest PC you've ever seen with the build quality of a bentley, but for the price it's all excellent.

  • foxpants on 21/09/2020 - 13:50

    What are the wait times given 3080's seem to be on a 6+ week backorder?

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 21/09/2020 - 14:03

      We're not expecting our October GPU shipments to take 6 weeks to arrive; 6 weeks from now is November, which is not what we're expecting. I can't really be more specific than that until we have estimated ship dates from suppliers.

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 21/09/2020 - 14:04
      +2

      R5-3600 —> R7-3700X = $200 from previous deal
      Therefore R7-3700X —> R9-3900X + 850 Gold PSU = $250

        • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 21/09/2020 - 17:45

          The bundled GPU in this deal is the MSI Ventus, which has a $100 higher price than the Giga Eagle from the other deal. It's the same cost price as the Giga Gaming OC upgrade (+$100). If you already purchased a system with a different GPU, you don't need to pay for the MSI card.

        How come $2545 - $2195 = $250? Please explain?

        It’s due to GPU price difference, but it still does not add up.

    Difference between the case options cooling/noise wise?

    • drew442 on 21/09/2020 - 14:19

      I'd stay with the MSI case. Room to add a 240mm radiator in your next upgrade.

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 21/09/2020 - 14:24
      +1

      The Leaper Air Maxx does support a 240mm radiator mounted at the front. The MSI can support a 240mm at the top or front - front mounting would require rejigging of fans so top mounting is recommended. If you have no plans to install a 240mm AIO, the three 120mm fans in the Leaper versus 2 in the MSI will have airflow benefits, no doubt. Construction quality wise, they are equivalent.

      • pick on 21/09/2020 - 14:54

        Thanks a bunch Luke! Guess I'll stick with the Leaper Air Maxx.

    • Nyclix on 21/09/2020 - 16:03
      +1

      You got a bit jipped. The deal linked in Ops post for the 3700x with 3080 is $2195 where as you paid $899 for one with no GPU, $1296 difference.

      An extra $1296 would've gotten you a $1400 GPU, a 480gb ssd vs a 240gb and a 750w gold PSU vs 650w bronze.

      I guess it benifits you if you never intended to put a 3080 in it and use something cheaper instead.

      • open4highway on 21/09/2020 - 16:42

        Yeah, I never intended to purchase the $1400 GPU, I bought 1660 Super.
        But the upgraded PSU and SSD makes me jealous.

          Different pricing structure for the components. We got an insane deal on Giga PSU, MB and GPU to make the 3080 deals possible. We made nothing on the the No GPU systems so there's no love to shed on those systems sadly!

          • Nyclix on 21/09/2020 - 17:13

            @luketechfast: Hi Luke. I ordered the r5 3600 3080 system but don't really need a new rig until December. Do you see yourself doing any similar deals over the next few months with the Asus strix OC by any chance, or a 20gb vram version? Weighing up if I buy now or wait.

      After speaking to my mortgage lender friend - I wouldn't recommend it. Apparently if you withdraw from your super, the banks will assume you are in financial hardship and are not able to lend you any money for a minimum of 6 months. This will override any credit score that you have accumulated.

      • Homr on 22/09/2020 - 06:53
        +2

        The credit score one is a myth

        Question. Will accessing my super early impact my credit score or reduce my future borrowing power?

        Answer. No, a super withdrawal isn't considered a form of credit, so it won't be included in any official credit report. You can learn more about what factors impact credit score or what gets recorded on your credit report here.

        • damihi on 22/09/2020 - 13:30

          Awesome. Thanks for clearing that up. Then it must have been an internal decision by CBA to not lend to anyone who withdrew their super rather than impacting the credit score.

          • Homr on 22/09/2020 - 13:39

            @damihi: How would CBA know if the borrower withdrew their super or not??

With lump sums they don't treat it as genuine savings

      Just reiterating what's in the deal: You will be buying this with the MSI Ventus 3X OC shipment, scheduled to arrive in October. As with the Gigabyte October cards, there's no fixed date for GPU delivery as yet, so systems will ship as soon as they're ready after the cards arrive. You're locking in the earliest available shipping date.

      If you add the rest of the items from his parts list, that amounts to ~ $500… good deal nonetheless since they're not charging much of a premium but rather making the money off the bulk discount.

  • BuyNowThinkLater on 21/09/2020 - 15:44

      If just gaming, then it's not necessary. If streaming, rendering or doing anything else that benefits from lots of threads (chrome tabs don't count), then an extra $200 for 50% more cpu cores is well worth it.

    When I upgrade the ram from 16gb to 32gb. The price is $99, however, the total price jump from $2745.00 to $2944.00. How it is possible?

      Tax plus labour time.

      Thanks for the heads up - it was the graphics card line affecting the pricing. It's been resolved.

        Thanks, this is now the third machine I've suggested to friends and family the last was a 3500x system and a 2700 one before that.
