    I’m surprised there are still brand new 3070 floating around

    • Balls on 21/02/2024 - 14:34

      would recommend in this case from the 3060 to 3070 for $100 as theres quite the gap

      • maverickjohn on 21/02/2024 - 14:36

        Absolutely the 3070 deal is a steal, 3060 is not worth the $100 saving.
        Makes me feel bad building a 3070 PC a year ago for $2600. It is much higher itx build but still

        • bazingaa on 21/02/2024 - 21:27

          3060 is good for deep learning though due to VRAM, after that it would be 3090

  • Bappy on 21/02/2024 - 15:05

    I pad approx $1350 for my EVGA 3070 only during the crypto days…. Ohh well

    It's still a very capable graphics card, except (thanks to NVIDIA) the 8GB VRAM limitations.

      My 2080 super build was only $200 more around the same time, I can see why people think their 30 series builds are worth $1500+ 2nd hand on marketplace now…

  • Weshouldgetsushi on 21/02/2024 - 15:08

    Second hand (or ex crypto) 3070 on ebay are still at $475 plus. (and often into the $500's)
    The rest of the parts are another $400 and all parts, including GPU are new.

          I bought one and upgraded ram, CPU and Mobo and was a beast of a machine, could play Cyberpunk 2077 1440p at 90~fps with a mixture of high to ultra settings and FSR quality on.

          • Soled Out on 21/02/2024 - 16:06

            @lookingforadeal7: how much did that cost?

              @Soled Out: With 5700x, 32gb ram and b-550m Mobo with wifi ax card cost me $1350 delivered. Sold it for about $100 less a few months later.

            • lookingforadeal7 on 21/02/2024 - 16:15
              +1

              @Soled Out: They had a 5600g upgrade which you probably could have gotten away with not upgrading Mobo and the 5600g upgrade cost was a lot better bang for buck than the 5700x but I needed the extra power, probably could have gotten away with the 5600g upgrade for an extra $70~ so would have cost $1100 delivered. Also took less than 7 days to arrive interstate so +1 to BPC for that. Was also eligible for free Starfield premium edition.

        • lookingforadeal7 on 22/02/2024 - 09:10

          Probably one of the best deals, I find it would be a struggle building one with used parts for the same price.

        • lookingforadeal7 on 22/02/2024 - 09:23

          The deal on their 7800xt with 7500f is underrated. For $1488 which is only $130 extra than I paid for mine you get better CPU and GPU so I'd consider how much performance you're actually getting out of it compared to the 4070 builds, it's well priced

    • congo on 21/02/2024 - 18:13

      6800 is about 10% faster than 3070?
      This deal $900 is about 10-15% cheaper than a past 6800 deal?
      I am surprise 6800 run Cyberpunk faster than 3070 with RT on?

      • lookingforadeal7 on 21/02/2024 - 22:25

        Without RT, would fall to 60 with RT pretty abysmal so not worth it for me. In cyberpunk it benchmarks the same as the 4070 https://youtu.be/ZUDP9W296G0?si=PUYr8bGtnwt8GFDn

      • lookingforadeal7 on 21/02/2024 - 22:35

        If you look at a few benchmarks of 6800 vs 4070 it's pretty damn close when both are using DLSS/FSR quality @ 1440p with RT off.

      • JJtoTheRadio on 22/02/2024 - 07:46

        I have not a clue where you got the 10% number from, I pray it wasn't from user benchmark

        The low vram is not enough to run a few games and a lot of games where you can expect 2x the performance of the 3070. Notably the last of us.

        Yes raytracing and AMD not the best of combos but even after using raytracing myself, rasterization performance at max settings runs so much better and looks not that much worse

        And yes AMD is not known for their raytracing but that doesn't mean the games are unplayyablr. Especially considering how in pure rasterization it chews the 3070 in most games

          • JJtoTheRadio on 22/02/2024 - 08:08

            @congo: Not sure about his accuracy I don't watch him often but the video below and one on one videos of the 2 cards show a bloodbath

            https://youtu.be/Rh7kFgHe21k?si=1xlwn5OjB9JCf_UF

          • lookingforadeal7 on 22/02/2024 - 09:08

            @congo: Not sure where the 10% comes from in that article but if you scroll down to the tables the 6800 is beating the 3070ti in FPS by almost 10%. You'll find if you check multiple YouTube benchmarks though it's actually much more than that and has similar performance to a 4070. Take into account the 4070 is still $850~ and the 6800 build was $1000 definitely a bargain. 6700xt and 3070 is a better comparison and roughly shows same performance in that article you linked.

            • congo on 22/02/2024 - 09:37

              @lookingforadeal7: 6800 build would be around $1100?
              So that around 20% more in price.
              The NV cards have better tech, you lose a bit in rasterization performance, but you gain in DLSS and RT and AI.

              • JJtoTheRadio on 23/02/2024 - 07:37

                @congo: For purely gaming I think RT has very few games where it's worth the performance trade, for e.g games like a plague tale, ray tracing litterely looks worse or atleast the same as ultra rasterization

                A gaming machine is about rasterization so being able to do 1440p@60FPS than being able to write an LLM that will take a couple decades to train

                Also this "small difference" in rasterization in some games translates to 2x, if your card is losing by 2x in some games, a bloodbath in the others and in RT your speciality you only get 5-12fps more, it's quite reasonable to say that the cheaper 6800 is more value for money. Unless you absolutely genuinely need NVIDIA for "better RT", or tensor cores, the 6800 beats the 3070

                DLSS3 frame gen isn't even available on NVIDIA cards, just shows the support they give to their older gen cards

                But at the end of the day both cards are very capable gaming cards and can run probably 100% of games available nowadays

    These systems are excellent value but as soon as you want to do more or upgrade then you're stuck. Still a great way to get a $400 NAS box with a $500 brand new 3070 for a custom build though!

    • mrblu on 21/02/2024 - 16:16
      +1

      The H610 motherboard should support up to 14th Gen Intel CPUs, you should be able to double the ram - I don't think that would force you to be "stuck"?

      • Switchblade88 on 21/02/2024 - 16:45
        +2

        The last lot of RAM I got from Techfast was this cheap and cheerful Team stuff; I tried to put 4x sticks into one PC and it just wouldn't cooperate (random BSODs etc) despite Memtest showing each indivudal stick was perfectly fine.

        Then you get to SSD upgrades and the Biostar board only has one NVMe slot. Sure, a SATA SSD is okay as a secondary game drive, but then you're also limited to 4 SATA ports in total; and you can't add a HBA since there's only one PCIe x16 slot for the GPU.

        I totally understand the reasoning though, and they're unbeaten on price, but it's many of those small niggles that you don't realise makes a difference until 18 months down the track after buying.

    8gb version of 3070. Need to bare in mind the 3060 has 12gb.

    I have a laptop with 8gb 3070 where reviewers are concern about longevity because of the small vram

    • Switchblade88 on 21/02/2024 - 16:48
      +2

      Unless you're running LLMs, marginally more VRAM is a negligible factor versus the better overall performance of the 3070.

      • CptnObvious on 21/02/2024 - 20:32

        I run LLMs

      • JJtoTheRadio on 22/02/2024 - 07:50

        No, games are starting to take up more and more Vram especially as graphics get better. 12Gb would be so ideal nowadays, the 4060ti gets slapped on because it's lack of RAM and the upgrade to 16Gb costing almost 200bucks more

    • xyron on 22/02/2024 - 12:30

      The 3060 will run out of rasterisation power long before it fills its VRAM buffer. It's really a non-issue.

      Anyone seriously using their GPUs for LLMs will also need something more powerful than a 3060.

  • LanceVance on 21/02/2024 - 16:42

    Are these machines if purchased as is really fantastic value, or do most people purchase with the intention to do immediate upgrades so make them great?

    • Miami Mall Alien on 21/02/2024 - 16:46
      +2

      The upgradeability options for both builds are fairly limited without spending thousands of dollars more, at which point you'd be far better off buying one of TechFast's higher-end gaming builds due to their better performance-per-dollar value, as linked in the OP.

      You're buying these systems because they're excellent value, entry-level gaming builds that will run most games at 1920x1080 at a solid ~60 FPS and you're trying to save as much as possible on unnecessary higher-spec components/extras.

      I do similar tasks on an old Dell Optiplex 790 with a GT1030LP. This may be lower-end than your departed. If rendering/encoding wait times aren't a deal breaker, you could spend half as much on a setup like mine.

              @mbrooks: Yep that's why i said somewhere between - better than 4060, not as good as 4060 Ti

                @luketechfast: Gotcha thanks! So then, any deals on a 4060 Ti system coming up from you? Cheers

                  @mbrooks: It's a maybe. Of all the 40 series cards, the 4060 Ti has been the lowest selling in our experience, which means we don't have as much leverage on volume. Will do our best!

    @luketechfast Hi Luke/Team, I have received my 3070 PC, thanks for that

    I can see motherboard is KOLOE H610M4-PLUS. TBH, I don't mind a cheap motherboard as long as it can do it's job. But just want to check with you, have you got any issues with this MB?

    @luketechfast My cousin ordered the 3070 PC on 24/2 and hasn’t received any updates. He’s reached out to [email protected] and is still yet to receive a response. What can he do as it’s now almost 3 weeks on an order that was estimated for 5-10 business days.

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 14/03/2024 - 10:36

      I'm on it - will get it sorted. Confirmed - sorted and will ship very shortly.

        Thanks Luke. Any chance he will get an email confirming this? I've asked him to check his emails today and no response yet. I can DM you the order details if that will help?

        • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 15/03/2024 - 09:39

          He'll get the email when it ships - it's testing now so should ship today meaning he'll get notification around middle of the day when Auspost picks up.
