I agree with the above, the 9800x3d is currently the best value cpu.

The best time to buy is when you can afford to buy it.

To sell white goods like that is going to take weeks if not months.
Its only worth it if you want the max carrot rank, instead of having to spend 5k to get max rank, you only need to spend 2500.
I remember the big gateway sale when they left the australian market. Millions in old IT stuff. Think i got some boston acoustic speakers,…
garetz commented on 2M in ETFs Would That Be Enough to Retire

garetz commented on Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 WINDFORCE OC SFF 12GB GDDR7 $899.10 Delivered (Excl. NT) @ Smarthomestoreau eBay
16gb is really what you need these days, anything less and many future games will have problems.
