    for those who don't speak AMD, 6650 is a 3060 equiv.

    $700?

    not behd.

        • cobknob on 19/07/2023 - 17:29

          Yep. Search Ozbargin for current and previous deals for the graphics card your looking for. Also use Google or whatever search u want.

          Every price or eg I've ever listed is always from historic Ozbargin or memory. During sales from ebay there have been some really good deals. I'm not a PC builder so I don't keep searchable records, usually just screenshots etc.

          Research is easy on the net for things like this - most Ozbarginers don't do this..

          For reference:
          https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gpu-hierarchy,4388.html

          If you scroll down a little in that above article you can see 4 images of performance, 1080 ultra, medium, 1440p, 4k and it gives a rough idea where your GPU stands in the benchmarks.

    • Eozef on 19/07/2023 - 16:05

      oof, I guess you do not have a good command of AMD either, 6650XT is 13% faster than 3060, and 3060's RT performance is pitiful, FSR is almost as good as DLSS, then again, DLSS in 1080p is not recommended due to how blurry it is. Literally, no reason to go with 3060. $700 is a pretty good package deal considering most RX6650 XT deals are around $520inc.

          • cobknob on 20/07/2023 - 02:09

            @watyoulookat: I did say

            Reasonably priced. DIY you can save more for the $999 build but the 699$ is within 100$~

            So what you've said here below

            considering most RX6650 XT deals are around $520inc.

            They were talking about PACKAGE DEAL!!!!!

            Enlighten me with a few links for package deals at 520$ - I've checked Ozbargin briefly, couldn't find anything via search for this year better than $699.. And if you think 700$ is a good deal for something you can get at 520$ u need to learn some maths and percentages - if I could get something the same or similar at 520$ I'm never paying 700$ that's 25% difference!

      • RetroMetro on 20/07/2023 - 00:32

        DLSS actually looks noticeably better than FSR. FSR has improved a lot, but DLSS still looks much better.

    • AreYouAWiiizard on 19/07/2023 - 21:58

      It's closer to a 4060 than a 3060 as long as you exclude RT performance which is kind of useless on a 4060 anyway.

      Regarding R5 5500 | 6650XT: pls take these comments as a guide-only & you must be satisfied with your-OWN readings.

      FPS @1080P: 6650XT vs 6700XT, search for your games -> https://www.gpucheck.com/en-usd/compare/amd-radeon-rx-6700-x…
      A520 Motherboard: PCIe 3 vs 4: given the LOW-end GPU, may be the PCIe 3 adverse impact is too small to worry about?
      PSU: consider $59 upgrade to 650W 80 Plus Bronze, especially if you plan to push your system hard all-the-time. Read up on efficiency ratings.
      Case: Antec DP301M: poor-airflows, see my detailed comments noted @ this deal.
      Andrenalin driver for 6650XT: if this is your 1st AMD-GPU, investigate this also. May be 6650XT owners can help ?

      Good luck with your research.

    • dealman on 25/08/2023 - 17:44

      Buyer Beware, !!!!

      Carefully check your configuration, Just bought an expensive PC from here and realised the default version doesn't even include a WIFI Card !!! it only has a network card.

      Plus the build wasn't done right one of the HDMI ports is not usable as we can't plug a cable into it !!! because hte case sort of interferes with it.

      Also note we went in thinking to buy local for better suppor and then realised there is NO PHONE NUMBER LISTED FOR SUPPORT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      You have to send an email and wait for a reply !!!

      • ab c on 31/08/2023 - 20:23

        'the devil is in the details'….& novice buyers are caught-out all the time.

        TF low-end deals keep cost down via low-tier Mobo: no wifi.

        There are little margin in their deals & hence limited IT-support. With the money you saved, invest time on finding potential solution for your problem, with TF guidance via email.

      @RG146: before you get too excited …
      A520 Mobo: read widely on PCIe 3.0 vs 4.0
      Case: make sure it has good-airflows. Mobo is likely LOW-tier & hence its VRM-thermal is just-enough & that's with with good-airflows: are you going to stop playing games with high room temp. on hot summer days ? Antec DP301M: Techfast 's link noted '2 preinstalled 120mm case fans' & @ Antec website you can see that the front-panel is 80% solid & 20% mesh-> likely that your parts will be fried, say blue/black screens from GPU crashing. May be Techfast should NOT have offer this case as novice-buyers is UN-aware.
      No overclocking: LOW-tier mobo & PSU are likely to fail.
      May be 'the devil is in the details' ?

      Hi Gamers, I am doing a review: Gaming PCs LOW-end Systems Only-> LOW-tier vs MID-tier. Much appreciate your support-> https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/788858

      Looks like good value to me. Some people will be dramatic about cheaper parts 'frying' or 'blowing up'. I've built budget PCs with lower priced parts since the early 2000's and have only experienced one RAM failure in 2006 and a PSU that wouldn't turn on after it had been in storage for 3 years in a coastal area which pretty much (profanity) any electronics I had. Everything else has been fine, mind you I'm not playing at ultra for 23 hours a day or interested in overclocking to get an extra FPS on things, perhaps that's what these guys do? idk

      • ab c on 21/07/2023 - 22:00

        @chasls123: I am sure he wrote with good intention.

        Gamers wants to play @ ULTRA setting with smooth-FPS, 60+ min. This pushes their systems hard & they run hot.

        Regarding these comments 'Mobo is likely LOW-tier & hence its VRM-thermal is just-enough & that's WITH good-airflows': my case has 4 fans, 50%+ mesh-front panel, & Ashrock H510M-HDV mobo. On 15-Jul-23: gaming OverWatch2 @ 1080P-ULTRA & room @ 17°C, I recorded 57°C @ VRM via a Milwakee temp. gun 2268-40. On hot summer days, it's common for my room temp hitting 30°C + & I expect the VRM to be close to the limit of my safe operating temp.: 80°C or thereabouts. No OC.

        POOR AIRFLOWS: triipwire's system has 4 fans, but glass-front panel with just side-vents, he commented https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/771991 & he bought this deal https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/765263.
        Another example: 100% mesh-front panel but just 1 fan only https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/763319

        When you cheap out on parts, you are taking risk…but do it with research & educated-guess. Hope-for-the best is too risky ?

        ALL-sellers sometime offered parts that make their deals NOT 'fit-for-purpose'. May be they ALL need to raise their standard, as a minimum, good airflows: 3/4 fans & mesh-front panel ? Also, if there are any limit, they should SAY-SO, then it's your fault because you cheap-out.

        If you push your system hard, may be it's prudent to monitor the temp. of your parts: say HWinfo64 S/W. Assuming that you want your system to have good-chance to see its 4th birthday: may be blue/black screens are too late ?

      A520 only supports pcie gen3 on nvme ssd and GPU, 6700xt use pcie gen4, not much bottleneck tbh. Techfast charges too much for the upgrade as always, unless their b550 boards has much better cooling and 4 dimm slots. Better cooling will help precision boost overdrive a bit, 4 dimm slot can allow u to double the memory urself

    Can someone explain to me what this would be capable of? I would look to play games like dayz or arma. Also animation software. Every time I see a pc posted in this site I see a million comments about why it sucks or what’s better

    • cobknob on 19/07/2023 - 15:55

      I'd suggest walking into a computer store and having a chat, searching google for good PCs for animation and 3d, or ask on the animation software forums or reddit. Plenty of info already out there.

      Also animation software

      Not very specific, 2d animation, 3d animation, cell-like animation - they all have different hardware requirements.

    • goose25 on 19/07/2023 - 16:15

      As someone who plays Arma 3 (Antistasi and Exile), I can say with confidence that these machines would both handle it with ease.
      The more expensive system of the 2 would deliver much better performance (as my friends and I discovered moving from AMD Zen 2 to Zen 3 CPUs). Plus the extra V-ram on the graphics card would be more "future proof" for other titles down the line.

      The main things people complain about with Techfast PCs are the slow delivery turnaround, the unbranded power supplies, cases with poor airflow and expensive part upgrade costs. It's worth getting quotes from a couple of other stores to see how they'd stack up, but I suspect for an everyday PC user, these machines would be fine.

      • cobknob on 19/07/2023 - 17:16

        unbranded power supplies, cases with poor airflow

        I agree here too. Replacing with gold rated psu and decent case probably ups price by minimum 150$

        • cobknob on 20/07/2023 - 01:49

          Less GPU ram

          is not indictive of how capable a graphics card is

          The memory bus is important, 6700xt has 192-bit and 3060ti has 256-bit, but end of day benchmarks 6700xt beats 3060ti but by a slight margin. I'd be choosing the use case for what card u select. If u need DLSS over FSR go Nvidia, if u want more performance or FSR go AMD - either cards are good :)

              DLSS and FSR are upscaling methods to improve graphics. Google it to find a better response than I can give. So at some point chipmakers gave up on native resolution processing power, imo this is why DLSS and FSR was born.

            @cobknob: Ok, way I interpreted.
            If I know the actual part I'm chasing I do a quick web, static.
            Whilst not perfect (nothing is) PP makes it time efficient, most the time.

            • cobknob on 20/07/2023 - 17:20

              @linoc66: I agree. I usually check google, ebay, staticICE, amazon and sometimes PP (for PP if I wanna check basic part compat at same time as prices)

        • KarlDilkington on 20/07/2023 - 15:58

          I just picked Australia from the top right of the page.

          • linoc66 on 20/07/2023 - 16:05

            @KarlDilkington: OMG! what a Nob! I had my local msy & ple selected as merchants.
            Getn ur prices now

            • cobknob on 20/07/2023 - 17:23

              @linoc66: PLE is pricey aye - I bought several components a while back in 2019/20 and probably won't do it again

    • linoc66 on 20/07/2023 - 12:34

      Thank you for putting in effort to your post.

      Curious - how did you filter search/discover the "No Prices Available" parts? (I always filter by price)
      Weird how it doesn't show stock & price/s in results, yet does if open item page.

      Also, why select 5500 over 12100? (~+10% performance for +$5).

      • cobknob on 20/07/2023 - 13:58

        From memory ain't Intel motherboards more expensive?

        • linoc66 on 20/07/2023 - 15:58

          Only a few $'s via price filter.
          ~$20 based on however Karl decided to select AR A520M-HVS, when it had no price.

          Regardless, issues/returns with amd boards cost$ more in the long-run, so unless requested I avoid. Wasn't an issue until 3600 fanfare.

          • cobknob on 20/07/2023 - 17:18

            @linoc66:

            issues/returns with amd boards cost$ more in the long-run

            Thats your experience and opinion, some people may say the opposite in the industry - usually a coin-flip

            Otherwise I really haven't dived into the motherboard and CPU combo side of things for this post

      • KarlDilkington on 20/07/2023 - 15:58

        I didn't have any show no prices available.

  • ozbozb on 20/07/2023 - 12:09

    Has anyone tried 6700xt for video editing? I am reading that it might have some issues

  • Rawrkun on 20/07/2023 - 13:07

    Which one offers a better value for money between this deal:

    R7 5700X, RX 6700XT, AMD A520, 16GB 3200MHZ $999 | R5 5500, RX 6650XT, AMD A520

    And the previous:

    Ryzen 5 5500, RTX 3060Ti 8GB, A320 motherboard, 16GB 3200MHZ RAM, 750W PSU, 500GB M.2 SSD $799

    Is it worth paying the $200 extra, I'm more confused now…

    More of a casual gamer and wanting to upgrade my ancient pc and maybe get back to some gaming again.
    Will be pairing this with a new 27inch 1440p144hz monitor.

    • ozbozb on 20/07/2023 - 14:25

      Yea I think the 3060ti is the better deal. but it's expired unfortunately. Wana buy it too, but might go with the 6700xt instead, although 3060ti is better for everything besides gaming.
      You could still go with enigma offer, think it's worth the extra 100$ though not performance wise

    • ab c on 21/07/2023 - 12:22

      @Rawrkun: as a guide, scroll down to 1440P & find your game's FPS: 6700XT vs 3060Ti…is there enough FPS to make your gaming smooth & enjoyable-> https://www.gpucheck.com/en-usd/compare/amd-radeon-rx-6700-x…

      May be test gaming @ 1440P on a 27" monitor at gaming-lounges & see if it's MORE-enjoyable & immersive: personal preference ?

      As a guide, moving from 1080P to 1440P system will cost you 50% more.

  • ozbozb on 20/07/2023 - 14:24

    Can we install another ssd later on or that's not possible with this motherboard?

    • cobknob on 21/07/2023 - 02:04

      Not another M.2 NVMe. Only has 1x slot. You can connect SATA 2.5" drives though.

    • bteq on 17/08/2023 - 14:46

      Well you can replace the M2 (or add a 2.5")

  • j ck on 21/07/2023 - 15:01

    I was thinking of jumping on this and upgrading my from a dusty Optiplex 9020 with a nivida 1030 card in it.

    I don't want to pay a huge amount as I'm not an avid gamer. I mainly use my current PC for light gun gaming and a driving build with my newly purchased g29.

    I presume the R5 5500 would be more than sufficient for this use case considering what I would be coming from. I can't see me playing in much more than 1080p for a long time. Even as newer light gun games get released from Patron (Time Crisis 5 for example), I don't think they are that resource intensive that this rig couldn't handle it.

    I've been out of the PC gaming and buying scene for a lonnnnnnng time so would welcome any advice and thoughts from the community.

    Cheers

    Does anyone know if you can disable fan RGBs? Never understood the whole bright rainbow thing 😅 I see they're fixed RGB so assuming it'd be custom mod?

    • KarlDilkington on 17/08/2023 - 15:32

      I'd be interested in this too. Seems annoying.

    • dxlr8 on 18/08/2023 - 21:04

      unplug the rgb cables from fans on the rgb hub, you can access this by removing the right side panel.

      • dxlr8 on 18/08/2023 - 21:11

        the reset button also changes colors and patterns. holding the reset button pauses the current effect.

        • Rawrkun on 19/08/2023 - 10:32

          Is that applicable for the Antec NX200M RGB fan as well or other typical case with customisable RGB fan?

          • dxlr8 on 19/08/2023 - 13:23

            @Rawrkun: Mine came with the Antec DP301m case, so it's applicable for that one and how mine came wired up. I can't speak for any other case/config.

  • may1985 on 24/08/2023 - 16:28

    Just ordered one for my wife to play WOW classic

    Bought one myself back on 2019 with techfast. And that was the process with a bit hiccup (PSU died when arrived twice, yes, twice)

    Hope this time everything going fine.:p

    • choofa on 31/08/2023 - 12:03

      Which did you order? The 5700x/6700XT deal seems to have ended

      • may1985 on 01/09/2023 - 02:04

        6650xt one,

  • Villainous on 30/08/2023 - 17:58

    Ordered 6 days ago and have had no update except for initial order confirmation email. First time ordering from Techfast. Is this normal for them?

    • choofa on 31/08/2023 - 10:25

      I was just considering ordering, but now wondering if this deal is too old. Have you heard anything?

    • may1985 on 01/09/2023 - 02:04

      I am at same boat, ordered at 24th, no updates.

      • choofa on 01/09/2023 - 12:26

        Have you tried PMing the OP?

        • may1985 on 01/09/2023 - 14:30

          Not yet, but I will try to PM them today.

          Still shown as order placed ATM.

          • hsc21 on 05/09/2023 - 09:20

            @may1985: Did u hear back? I'm in the same boat.
