Yep, there's a compromise for every option. S23 - older model, shorter support, slightly weaker screen. S24 Exy - worse reception and…

Some people would actually prefer the S23 CPU over the S24 CPU, since they went Snapdragon 8G2 to Exynos 2400.

You will pay so much more for a 5800X3D for a relatively minimal gain. 5800X3D on Aliexpress just doesn't go nearly as low as this despite…

I am currently using a CPU from this seller (also upgraded from 3600). For what I am playing most of the time (FFXIV) it's a massive…

3070 at 1440p. Improvement depends on the game. FFXIV got a 50% boost in crowded areas. FH5 got basically nothing. Most games are somewhere…

Depends on your GPU and main games, but it was a huge upgrade for me. For $240 it's such good value. Sure AM5 has a great upgrade path, but…

Can I ask why people would anyone get this to use docked full-time? Surely a laptop or even SFF desktop would be better value?

You will notice a difference, but how much depends on your use case. I have a 3070 driving 1440p and went 3600->5700X3D. Stuff like Final…

This. In most cases, the gap between the 5700X3D and the 5600X is as big as the gap between the 3600 and 5600X. If you're CPU bound, it's…

Considering the power of the Steam Deck, you're not running much at 4K@60 anyway. Bandwidth should still handle 1080p60 easy and one review…

There were only two DLCs and they're already out. Not like XV where they needed like 17 DLCs to patch all the story holes.

Most people won't recommend investing in an old platform unless you're just upgrading the CPU in an existing build. However, if you want…

Reiterating your recommendation: 5700x3D needs a newer BIOS than the 5800X3D, so check you NEED to check for compatibility with this…

Diamond and Pearl remakes were DULL and had limited sustained interest. If you played DP, they are literally the same experience with a…

Technically no, but not far off, but with better driver optimisation, thermals and a better modem than the Exynos. It's an insane phone for…

8s Gen 3 is weaker than 8 Gen 3. All cores are downclocked by a little, the Cache is 33% smaller and the GPU has half the shaders (but…

Surely having to replace/recharge batteries is more inconvenient than any benefit for most cases?

For mice, sure. What's the issue with cables on keyboards? Just the aesthetic?

C200 and C211 both use 9V 0.6A according to my adaptor. C212 uses 5V, according to Amazon.

It's closer to a base S23 with an SD 8G2 and 3700 mah battery. S24U is 8g3 and 5000mAh.

After the $30 discount code, yes.

Just got mine today (is Chinese Snapdragon) and can confirm VoWifi and VoLTE (4G & 5G) both work on Telstra (Boost). Happy.

These things last forever.

Mine took 8 days to even show up on the shipping tracker... Hope the actual shipping doesn't take too long.

Agreed that oversteer is worse, but understeer isn't safe either. The Eco tyres aren't coping and should be replaced (and roughly matched),…

* 4070 Ti is about 5-6% faster than 7900GRE * 4070 Ti has about 5% higher power draw when gaming, meaning noise is going to depend mostly…

Our dogs love these. Great training treats for inside or winter. They get melty if you take them on a walk in summer.

I am also keen to know if VoLTE and VoWifi are working with Telstra. If you could confirm (or even with another network), I would love to…

"Won't somebody think of the corporations!?" It was more from a theoretical and legal perspective, but yeah, unlikely that anyone will care.

What are people's thoughts on using a staff discount count when you're not staff? In the loosest sense, is it not a bit fraud-y or is it no…
