ozfool replied to Boop Doucha on [PreOrder] ASRock Arc B580 Challenger 12GB OC GPU, Assassin's Creed Shadows, 6-M Ubisoft Classics $449 Delivered + SC @ Scorptec
He admitted pricing and performance was similar between rtx4060 and B580, and then whinged a bunch of random stuff about Intel business…

Note that the "free delivery" is uninsured, you will be prompted to pay $8 for auspost insurance, which is fair and probably advisable

At the risk of repeating other comments, the intel cards have a high driver overhead that will strain any weaker-midrange CPU. E.g. you…
ozfool commented on Coolermaster GA271 27" WQHD 100Hz Gaming-Monitor $139.98 Delivered @ Brand Tactics via Catch
Mine arrived. Quick shipping, everything works. Mounted on my VESA arm. So far so good. I've only used 1080P 24" screens before so it's…
ozfool replied to Nom on [Pre Order] Intel Arc B580 LE 12GB GDDR6 Graphics Card $439 Delivered ($0 MEL C&C) @ PC Case Gear
This new issue isn't about ReBAR. It means any CPU (including modern ones) is getting bottlenecked much earlier on B580 than rival cards.…

Deal still works with SUMMER10. Just ordered one
ozfool commented on [PC, Steam, GOG, iPadOS] FTL: Faster Than Light $3.62 @ Steam / $3.69 @ GOG / $2.99 @ Apple App Store
Love this game, still have a slap every now and then. Hard as (profanity) though, don't expect to beat the final boss until you've really…
ozfool replied to Look Up on [Pre Order] MAXSUN Arc B580 Milestone 12GB GPU & Bonus $20 Credit: $429 + Delivery ($0 to Metro/ SYD C&C) + Surcharge @ Mwave
Sure, but the B580 is only a clear winner in competitiveness when it undercuts the 4060, which is the case in the american market. In…
ozfool commented on [Pre Order] MAXSUN Arc B580 Milestone 12GB GPU & Bonus $20 Credit: $429 + Delivery ($0 to Metro/ SYD C&C) + Surcharge @ Mwave
Looks like PLE and PCCG have raised their prices on all their B580s. LE now $469 up from 439. Sparkle Titan now selling for $499. Dodgy,…

Mwave is on the list of participating retailers for a free copy of Assassins Creed Shadows with Intel products, B580s from other retailers…

some listings say it's included, some don't, even though I think all the following retailers should be doing it…
ozfool replied to Everettpsycho on [Pre Order] Intel Arc B580 LE 12GB GDDR6 Graphics Card $439 Delivered ($0 MEL C&C) @ PC Case Gear
ReBAR is important, it will run without it but at a significant (~15%) reduction in performance. PCIE 4.0 (11th gen intel) is likely to…
ozfool replied to JTayzer on [Pre Order] Intel Arc B580 LE 12GB GDDR6 Graphics Card $439 Delivered ($0 MEL C&C) @ PC Case Gear
The A770 for $399 is definitely an interesting discount from its RRP, and I considered it myself, but we already knew that the B580 was…
ozfool replied to Mr Bob Dobalina on [Pre Order] Intel Arc B580 LE 12GB GDDR6 Graphics Card $439 Delivered ($0 MEL C&C) @ PC Case Gear
There's been a lot of inflation of the last few years. So yeah a first guess would be to take the 4060's RRP and add 20% if it's simply a…

ozfool replied to dammit on [Pre Order] Intel Arc B580 LE 12GB GDDR6 Graphics Card $439 Delivered ($0 MEL C&C) @ PC Case Gear
There's not many options for GPUs under this price. It's either this, or a 4060 for the same price, or an rx6600 for $300. I think you can…
ozfool replied to MHLoppy on [Pre Order] Intel Arc B580 LE 12GB GDDR6 Graphics Card $439 Delivered ($0 MEL C&C) @ PC Case Gear
A 4060 for $400 (common deal price, current low is $420) is about even value with a b580 for $439 just going by performance and not other…
It is ok, if the molecule is safe. You should prioritise being mad at chemicals that are *actually harmful*. If NOP-3 was a thousand times…
There's a million other sources of pollution you're exposed to. What makes this molecule in particular so scary and worth avoiding? Do you…

Update: texting 3498 from my new vodafone sim now says my Redmi Note 11 is fully compatible! Pretty crazy. What a mess. Putting my IMEI…
ozfool replied to whyisave on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
No worries. When I changed to LTE only, on telstra sim, the device would refuse to make calls at all until it got defaulted back to…

ozfool replied to whatthej on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
Interesting message. Maybe it's true that it still wouldn't do VOLTE in emergency mode. From what I've read, it's impossible to check.…

No worries, I'm still hoping to squeeze out a bit more life from this before I upgrade
ozfool commented on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
My redmi note 11 was blocked by telstra today! The phone is capable of VoLTE, and I enabled all the right settings in using the codes…

That's right, the bad stuff basically just accumulates linearly with number of times of reuse. Oils that you only use once, thermal…

Yeah that's definitely pretty nasty for you, as certain as anything can be in nutrition science. Please buy some new oil (maybe canola,…

Saturated (coconut, ghee) and monounsaturated (olive) oils are thermally stable. There are some seed oils that are monounsaturated ("high…

Seed oils may be fine when consumed raw and in small amounts, but there is a lot of literature showing they rapidly degrade when heated and…
