The chips are still being produced new-in-box, so they're inherently "new", not old stock. I don't see how that's an issue when it comes to…

AMD quite literally launched "new" SKUs for AM4 [less than a month…

No worries, happy to answer what I can! Regarding Nintendo Switch emulation, I haven't tried it out on the Steam Deck myself. I've mainly…

Not really, as the Steam Deck formats the SD card in a way that a typical Windows PC can't read. It's more about keeping the internal…

The discount code doesn't stack with the trade-in. Applying a trade-in overwrites the SSTEN code, and it errors out if you try to use it…

For what it's worth, I followed the steps and the page is now showing a $100 trade-up value instead of $200 as posted. My loyalty voucher…

An i3-9100 isn't too far removed from an i5-7500; the i5 is maybe 10% slower for 14% less cost ($119 vs $139 assuming the rest of the…

If you're looking to take advantage of hardware transcoding (Intel QuickSync on these machines), you'll only get proper hardware 10-bit…

I've had an OLED since [this](https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/849825) deal. Was still a bit on the fence about how much I'd use it given…

Yep, as far as Intel CPUs go, you'll only get hardware AV1 decode on an 11th gen or newer chip (UHD 700 graphics or newer).

HODLing out for another [~$40](https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/841237) deal... Would be a nice addition to my new Steam Deck.

Drat. The timing with the Steam Deck deal was too good to be true, unless you nabbed one of these beforehand I suppose. Though, looking at…

I'm on their 1000/1000 plan, located in Melbourne. Been quite happy with it so far. Bit of a long winded post but hopefully some of the…

I'm with Pineapple on their 1000/1000. Contacted them last night about this as I've been considering using ZeroTier or Tailscale as a bit…

It's not an argument, those are all **sub**jective things...

Objectively? Based on what metrics? There's lots of subjective differences between the games.

A few 'cheap' motherboard options at the moment if you're after a Z690 chipset board to go with one of these CPUs: **mATX:** Gigabyte Z690M…

For anyone already on AM4, a 5800X3D probably saves around $250-$300 ($200 if you go really destitute with your motherboard and RAM) vs a…

Yep, that's exactly it - if they want to keep me around as a customer they'll honour the deal. If not - there's literally no difference in…
