sicarius on Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER Graphics Card $1180 ($1175 eBay Plus) Delivered @ Smart Home Store eBay

I did this upgrade. I hadn't realised how many games in 4K used over 10GB of VRAM, particularly the Sony ports. Happy with the purchase,…

Easy Money on $100 - $500 Cashback Bonus on Select Air Conditioners @ Mitsubishi Heavy Industries

@Easy Money Hmm OK I thought the review/approval might've come through quicker and then a few weeks wait to actually receive the cashback.

@Easy Money How long did it take from submission to approval?

The Schweppes brown creamy soda is not too different from the old Tarax one. The Kirks pink creaming soda is nice as well. River Port…

zacka444666 on Lexar NM790 PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD 4TB $227.15 + Delivery ($0 mVIP / SYD C&C) @ Mwave

This review seems to indicate that it'd get pretty toasty without a heatsink and may throttle on sustained writes.…

Just re-read it. Pre-ordering in store, I originally interpreted this as if you pickup in store it'd be given at pickup, or up to 2 weeks…

bargaino on Switched Gas Provider from Alinta to Covau Due to High Prices; [Stupid] Covau Didn't Switched Even after 40 Days

The more than doubling in price is rude and doesn't give people take up time to migrate to efficient electric. Gas is widely used in…

ocyrion commented on Switched Gas Provider from Alinta to Covau Due to High Prices; [Stupid] Covau Didn't Switched Even after 40 Days
Gas prices in Victoria are a disgrace. I was on a fixed plan that expired in July, the balance step (>50MJ per day) for my area was…

Agreed, I have both the SN850X (boot/games) and the Lexar (secondary storage). Benchmarks are similar but the SN850X is more consistent,…

Those temps are not hot. I had a Samsung 970 Evo Plus that used to sit at 62 at idle and hit the 80s under load. This was under a…

Haha, yes indeed, these would be on another level if they did 4TB/sec.

Received the 4TB model of this last Friday. I was looking for a good secondary storage drive with a decent sustained write speed. Copying…

Thanks for the heads up. I'd be hoping they'd be coming down though rather than going up! :)

I snoozed on these, thought the Gigabyte would be better due to extra warranty and they seem to reliably not have coil whine. Snooze you…
