A bit surprised that linked 7800x3d deal hasn't dropped a little since then due to all the 5070ti deals that have been popping up lately.…

This seems to be same specs and exactly same price as the last deal the "Cinder", only with DG400 Air Cooler ($35) instead of the MSI MAG…

Fair enough... go with what you prefer... but I feel people conflate "cheap" and "light"... except maybe for the skates, which tbf, are…

chinese ones last longer, are cheaper, and unless you get the <$30 ones, have the same core components (paw3395, nordic mcu, good switches)

Also still waiting for a vic seller to come close to the latest techfast/nebula deals... but I might just have to give in and go interstate…

How do 240 AIOs compare with simliar priced air coolers these days? (I've generally avoided watercooling for less hassle) also is that case…

Definitely on the fence on this one... it's so close to the recent 9070xt deals that it makes the 5070ti much more desirable. Any chance…

now it's $15,09 ... damn... wouldn't that be nice :D
19/03/2025 - 13:35
hol'up, 5070Ti for 1109... while the cheapest 9070xt you can get your hands on is 1299?!
19/03/2025 - 13:23
yeah the upgrades are always like that it seems... going from a 9700x to a 9800x3d should be <$400 but it costs +636.90 in the builder :(
07/03/2025 - 17:21
lower quality mobo, psu and ssd... and I think they were 16gb ram by default... but yeah it was a little better value overall
22/01/2025 - 16:47
intel 14th gen is out of the question for me due to all the manufacturing issues, pretty set on the 7800x3d+4070ti combo atm, just being a…

They'll be grabbing whatever they have on hand. It'll most likely be 36's with some occasional 32's. The difference is like half of one fps…
30/10/2024 - 13:31
Yeah you've allayed my fears for the gaming side of things... so it's really just long renders or sims... but I guess in those cases I…

Ty for the response! Disclaimer: I am definitely out of my depth here, and just aggregating as much info as I can from trusted sources.…
30/10/2024 - 12:51
Yeah from what I can tell, the "Plus" has more ram slots and an extra M2 slot... but the gigabyte site says both have "5+2+2 Phases Digital…

Was about to buy it myself... but my mate found the Achilles' heel of this one. Gigabyte B650M Gaming Plus WiFi motherboard has garbage…

Crazy x3d/TiS deal compared with the recent steam gift ones! A couple questions for Luke: 1) What sort of SSD's are these? I'm assuming…
28/10/2024 - 17:47
still waiting for another good 7800x3d + 4070tiS deal to even match what we had a few months ago... guess we're still screwed by 7800x3d…
21/10/2024 - 15:01
If you want the 7800x3d this ends up at $2528 (with $225usd steam voucher) vs the techfast 7800x3d one ending up at $2177 I think overall…
18/10/2024 - 14:44
the 4080s is a bit of a bait isn't it? I think the 4070Ti S is gonna be a better value buy for most.
20/09/2024 - 14:01
the $2188 4070ti super "Striker Elite" deal keeps getting linked at the end of your posts, but then it's sold out when you go to that deal?…

In the market for a new pc, and noting that I share the preference for a focus on airflow and no rgb
09/09/2024 - 14:23
[@cloudy](/comment/5417182/redir): The increase is 79% for 16/17. I gave the range because TPG took over a little before the 16 range…

Difference being, you see a deal at HN, you buy it, you get what was advertised. Internet service is a bit less tangible. While issues…
