Never seen this store before
Lol…what should I see here? Last comment is interesting
Buy from Amazon for easy return if something went wrong.
Really holding out for some AM5 mobo sales. Picked up that 9700X on sale a week ago
Just buy it man
This is an Intel board and he will need an AMD AM5 board to support a 9700X CPU
DO NOT Just buy it.. it will not work with an AMD CPU
I mean just buy the AM5 dont wait for discount man
Not bad deal. I hold off because of these comments
A year ago but still.
https://www.reddit.com/r/bapcsalesaustralia/comments/15749gr…I saw this store a lot in Facebook Marketplace, I feel their PC tower is usually more expensive than Techfast and Nebula.
Anyone actually buys Intel platform at all with the abysmal performance…?
Poor intel, they cant even give away these boards.
why is that?
Probably because their gaming performance is terrible for their price and barely any faster than ~$200 CPUs and you can get similar or better productivity performance with AMD anyway and now without having to make the sacrifice: https://www.techspot.com/articles-info/2965/bench/Average.pn…
Went there a few days ago. Mike , the person who runs the shop out of his house, is an extremely rude man. Even though I was paying cash up front, he totally refused to answer any questions about the product he was selling. He refused to let me test it out.
Be very careful when buying from them.He refused to let me test it out.
Does any shop let you test before buying?
Cause other stores have a pretty straight forward return process in place. With this bloke, it's pretty much between you and the manufacturer. Also, him being an "authorised" reseller is questionable, further complicating the warranty process, should something go wrong.
me want
Prices for the gigabyte z890 range from $399 to $449 from legit sources. At best these will be grey imports with no viable warranty. I assume same for the other parts.
