    Are you able to make one of these with a less ostentatious case? I'm looking for a very basic non-RGB case, preferably with a vented side panel instead of an tempered glass one.

    • huuuuugo on 08/06/2022 - 15:47

      I am currently not in the market for a PC, but I would like to strongly emphasise this ask. There is a large cohort of gamers who prefer clean, minimalistic cases with no lights or useless windows. The first thing I did when I bought my last PC (from TechFast, by the way) was disabling all the RGB lights.

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 08/06/2022 - 15:53
      +15

      RGB can be disabled on all case fans by holding down the button controlling the lighting for a few seconds. In the Maverick there is a cable controlling the front LED strip that can be disconnected. But I take yours and other comments over the journey on board - the challenge is finding minimalist cases that offer good airflow, at the right price, in sufficient quantity for our purposes. We can and do invest in our own cases to meet demand when possible. It's on my list!

    • lozzag123 on 08/06/2022 - 18:28

      Not a solution for many if not most but depending on where the PC is actually going to sit, the glass panel might not be visible at all. My PC sits directly to the right of my desk making the glass panel impossible to see, and making the PC generally not look 'gaming' at all.

      • TheRealCJ on 08/06/2022 - 18:45

        It's less about looks and more about cooling. I like to add additional side fans, and tempered glass is way harder to modify than aluminium of sheet steel

        • lozzag123 on 08/06/2022 - 19:52

          Not sure if the same for all cases but my glass panel is completely removable, surely one like that is easist to modify since you can just replace it entirely?

          • TheRealCJ on 08/06/2022 - 19:52

            @lozzag123: I mean, kinda? When I say modify I mean drill holes in it to mount fans, which is definitely harder to do to 2-3mm of tempered glass without cracking it.

    The title is misleading. Should be $907 + delivery. Or change to 16GB 2666MHz RAM instead.

    The base RAM configuration for the price stated in the title at $888 is for 16GB [2666MHz] DDR4 RAM (2 x 8GB Modules).

    You need to add $19 for 16GB [3200MHz] DDR4 RAM (2 x 8GB Modules)

    • happyhayward on 08/06/2022 - 15:23

      Agreed. Misleading title and description.

    My friend's purchase from the previous deal https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/699317 has been delayed twice now supposedly because of the CPU, with option to either upgrade the 11400F, B560 to a 12400F, B660 for $100 which seems very expensive or downgrade to a 10400F for a $20 refund which inversely looks like too little. I'll give TF the benefit of the doubt because I've had good experiences in the past but be aware of the waiting times and subpar value "options" to get your PC in quicker.

  • etchebaster on 08/06/2022 - 19:03

    How would this work a 1440p screen that’s capped at 60fps? Enough to play modern games decent enough (don’t care about super high FPS)? Eg f1 2021 or MSFS. I assume strategy games will work well over 60 FPS

    • DemocracyManifest on 09/06/2022 - 10:23
      +1

      PC is almost always better for gaming due to thermals and less chance of throttling

      • MuddyClear on 09/06/2022 - 20:05

        Laptop is portable and has better resell value

        • DemocracyManifest on 10/06/2022 - 23:07

          Na no way. Pc parts out and has better resale value over time. I do it on the reg - $50 PSU, $60 case, upwards of $150 on a standard GPU, $150 plus on cpu/mobo combo, $50 upward on ram, and that’s on a decade old pc that was decent for its time. No way you can flip a laptop that old for over $400 at minimum, and that’s half the cost of this

    • Jinxinferno on 09/06/2022 - 10:31
      +1

      Obviously it depends on the specific laptop, but in general, most of those deals have a better processor and the RTX3060 is a faster video card, so the laptop would be a better gaming rig.

      Downsides being the laptop is less upgradable and costs more than this, unless you also need a monitor in which case you'd almost even out.

      • cmyk on 09/06/2022 - 17:34

        Thanks, I get the specs are better with the laptop but conflicting advice from the above comment about thermal and throttling.

        • MuddyClear on 09/06/2022 - 20:06

          You undervolt to stop throttling

          • DemocracyManifest on 10/06/2022 - 23:12

            @MuddyClear: That won’t stop throttling on GPU and CPU with intense workloads. The fans on a laptop don’t cut the mustard and overtime it will literally overheat and turn off. They are designed for portability: a gaming laptop is just a buzzword and you are getting ripped off. A pc with decent airflow and decent cpu radiator won’t do that

            • MuddyClear on 11/06/2022 - 11:09

              That won’t stop throttling on GPU and CPU with intense workloads.

              I don’t know about intense workloads but for gaming, on a gaming laptop, there are plenty of YouTube videos that show undervolting can stop throttling.

      Have seen it yep, looks cool but seems to have some fundamental flaws including the need to remove the rear fan for lots of motherboards. Plus can't see an Australian distributor, so it's not looking doable for a few reasons.
