jasswolf on Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Ti WINDFORCE 16GB Video Card $1509 + Delivery ($0 C&C SYD) @ Mwave (Sold Out) & JW Computers

Fair, fair. I've been responding to some other comments so the exact context was lost on me. I personally don't think Blackwell is going to…

I'm sorry, what year is it? Surely you're trolling but I'll bite anyway. A GTX 1070 Ti for $500... when 3070s are selling for [that or…

FuRyZ on Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Ti WINDFORCE 16GB Video Card $1509 + Delivery ($0 C&C SYD) @ Mwave (Sold Out) & JW Computers

Can we _please_ dispel with the notion that either of AMD or NVIDIA has more or less driver bugs than the other? They've both had their…

Yep, some pros and some cons to either this Dell or a comparable Surface Pro, but IMO performance is a wash between the two. Big plus…

In some cases yes, but in this case these generations are essentially the exact same as each other with minor differences in clock speeds,…

I'd probably bite as well for a 16GB model. Would make for a good replacement for my old Chromebook Duet.

I was a little bit curious until 8GB of RAM. Could be worse I suppose as these _could_ be configured with only 4GB...

Performance wise, the raw difference between the CPUs on paper won't be much. Not all 10th gen CPUs are made the same, and these Comet Lake…

I played Investigations 1 on my DS back in the day, so Investigations 2 is definitely on the cards in the future!

selphie on XFX Swift Radeon RX 9070 XT Triple Fan Gaming Edition 16GB GPU $1199 + Delivery ($0 to Metro/ VIC C&C) @ Scorptec

It's definitely noticeably smoother than my 165Hz Dell S2721DGF monitors side by side, but how much of that comes from the raw refresh rate…

Overly long ramble incoming but I recently made this switch. Ultimately, it really depends on whether or not you're happy with the…

IIRC the 3DS uses a different pixel structure that makes it look perceptually lower resolution than an actual DS screen. DSi XLs all have…

Well you can't really buy a 4070 Ti Super anymore, but OP shouldn't consider upgrading from one in either case. In the current market, the…

botchie on PowerColor Radeon RX 9070 XT Reaper 16GB Graphics Card $1139 + Delivery ($0 MEL C&C) @ PC Case Gear

Brrrrt on PowerColor Radeon RX 9070 XT Reaper 16GB Graphics Card $1139 + Delivery ($0 MEL C&C) @ PC Case Gear

Let me propose a question. Cast your mind back, let's say, six months: NVIDIA and AMD are launching a new generation of GPUs. Do you assume…

Wonderfool on PowerColor Radeon RX 9070 XT Reaper 16GB Graphics Card $1139 + Delivery ($0 MEL C&C) @ PC Case Gear

A launch price of $1080 for the 6800 XT converts to close to $1300 accounting for inflation (approximately). It was also basically…
