Pancake Parlour is pretty popular when I've been, and people seem happy to pay the massively inflated prices. Although they do have deep…

I've tried the NM790 (DRAM-less) in my PS5 last week and it appears to be working fine. Transferred games from my internal to the drive…

Mine was cancelled too although it also had the Disney Illusion game on Switch in my order too, and they cancelled that as well.

Yeah sorry, should clarify that the PS5 cannot use HMB, so the recommendation is to only use DRAM equipped drives on it. But I can't find…

Is the lack of HMB problematic for PS5? Tried looking for comparisons/benchmarks and couldn't find any. Only that Digital Foundry used a…

OLED alone justifies the extra $130.

Performance wise the A770 objectively worse across the board. Sometimes a lot worse due to Intel's less mature drivers. However, you get…

Probably not a good buy considering Battlemage is literally just around the corner. If anything, I can see this going cheaper to clear…

Cheaper via non-edu store + 13% cashback.

Code no longer works.

RM750x Shift is $119 at Mwave.

5600

Not OP but no.

It released at $1300 although the MSRP is higher. It was cheap even at $1300 compared to other laptops with these specs.

It manages cooling very well, but like I said the fans can be annoying going into idle all the time. At 100% fan speed it's not that loud…

Dual fans side-by-side, you can see them underneath. The cooling is extremely good and I've seen no throttling. Benchmarks at the top end…

Sitting at the desktop it says 11-12 hours. General usage? 6-8 hours. Gaming? Less than 90 minutes.

Sorry, should clarify that RAM is soldered, storage is not soldered.

It's two less cores and wouldn't have any impact on day to day usage. You get a less powerful iGPU too. That said for just $100 extra it's…

This one has no trouble maxing out the 8845HS. Runs fairly cool overall too, although the fan can be a little obnoxious ramping up and down…

This one is pretty decent. Fully metal, glass touchpad, keyboard is fine, has a few creaks when opening the lid but feels fairly solid…

RAM yes, storage no, and it has another m.2 slot.

65Wh (just checked mine)

People who were interested already bought it digitally and it was very expensive at full price ($125), also not all DLC is on disc so it's…

It's the same price ratio for 32GB and 64GB kits though. I'd rather get a single 64GB kit than introduce stability problems going 4x16GB…

Using the board right now. It had no issues installing Windows and it's running great. 31950~ in Cinebench R23. Temperatures peak at about…

Same with me. The board has an audio header which was a nice surprise. I've built the PC so far. With a slim 12mm fan it literally fits…

Just got an update that mine is coming today too.

Delivery date 24th October which seems slow for DHL express.

Same - DHL Express.
