coldazure on Gaming PCs: 7500F, RX 7800XT, 32GB CL32 6000Mz RAM, 1TB M.2: $1448 | 9700X: $1798 | 7800X3D: $1998 + $50 Del @ Nebula PC

Me too. Would love a 7800 X3D (or ideally 9800 X3D) deal with a 4080 Super or similar.

mintea on [Steam, PC] Humble Choice Jan 2025 - Against the Storm, Jagged Alliance 3, Blasphemous 2 + More $16.95 @ Humble Bundle

Skipping a month extends the current subscription by 1 month, so you should be fine.

Lululuke on [NSW] Ozito PXC 18V Cordless Hedge Trimmer Kit $35 @ Bunnings Chatswood

$119 is the wrong model. $69 is the standard price.

Heaps of stock at Bunnings Chirnside Park. No price displayed, but rings up at the standard $69 price. I asked about price matching and…

Looks like that one isn't published on their site, so I believe them with it being discontinued. The cheapest on the site is an $89 skin…

CarbonTwelve commented on Lrtzcbi 14" 1920x1080 IPS Portable Touchscreen Monitor $90.99 Delivered @ zhixian via Amazon AU
Where does it say it supports PD passthrough? Any details on wattage? It'd be great to have a device plugged into this using USB-C powered…

Essentially the same prices on Steam for those looking to get them for the Steam Deck.

CarbonTwelve commented on Garmin Epix Pro (Gen 2) 42mm - Silver with Whitestone Silicone Band $910.38 Delivered @ Amazon UK via AU
Worth noting that the Sapphire 47mm is $899, and Sapphire 51mm is $999. If you can go a size up then you're much better off with those.

CarbonTwelve commented on Yard Force 1200W Solar Power Station $299 ($269.1 after 10% Member Discount) + Delivery ($0 C&C) @ Mitre 10
I also pulled the trigger. Didn't use cashback giftcards as I'm half expecting the order to be cancelled, meaning I'm stuck with $300 of…

mito on Yard Force 1200W Solar Power Station $299 ($269.1 after 10% Member Discount) + Delivery ($0 C&C) @ Mitre 10

A UPS as the name implies is designed to be uninterruptable. If the source power cuts out, the delivery does not, so your device never…

CarbonTwelve commented on Azur Heart Rate Monitor and Cadence Sensor Bundle Deal $45 (RRP $124.90) + Delivery @ Mr Cycling World
Anyone got any experience with the Azur kit? Seems like a good price for the bundle, but if it's no better than a watch HRM then not much…

10+ years on I'm still slowing working through getting all the achievements in this. Great game. It can be a little tricky for new players,…

Same laptop (albeit with i5 rather than i7) is available from Amazon for $329, and they quote 80% or above for battery health:…

Wonderfool on [Used] Dell Latitude 5400: 14" FHD, Intel i7-8550u, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Win11 $309 Delivered @ corporatepc

Depends which segment. In the 8th gen H range (still laptop) the i7 is a 6 core CPU vs i5 being a 4 core. You're still missing my point,…

Wonderfool on [Used] Dell Latitude 5400: 14" FHD, Intel i7-8550u, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Win11 $309 Delivered @ corporatepc

I'm not suggesting you're gaming on this, I'm saying for the average user that an i5 vs i7 matters more in older CPUs than it does in newer…

220 nits on the display is a bit disappointing. Fine for average indoor lighting, but a bright room or outdoors and it's going to be…

[Deactivated] on [Used] Dell Latitude 5400: 14" FHD, Intel i7-8550u, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Win11 $309 Delivered @ corporatepc

I'd argue the other way around. i5 vs i7 for new chips makes jack-all difference to the vast majority of users. For a 5yo processor the…

Hub by Triforce on HP ProBook 450 - i5/16GB/512 + Bag & Wireless Keyboard & Mouse $1,104.15 Delivered @ Hub by Triforce

If by "premium products" you mean paying more for the same components without additional value, then yes, this is the wrong site for that.…

I feel like that's a bit unfair. Side by side with another laptop it'll be noticeably less rich / vibrant, but on its own I find you get…

Just got a pair of these for father's day. Seem to be really good so far; multipoint works well (call came through perfect while gaming on…

CarbonTwelve commented on [PC, Steam] Capcom Summer 2024 Bundle: 3-12 Items $7.64-$45.88 @ Humble Bundle
Seems kinda expensive unless you want some really old titles. Not saying it's bad value, just was looking for some cheap things I might try…

You're not wrong, but I also think that you could say that neither the Liberal nor Labor Parties care much about your average Aussie…

I'm also curious. Youtube reviews seem decent, but not very comprehensive (no comparisons in terms of laser strength, and no validation of…

Quigo Basic and Plus are only for walls, not ceilings.

Deceiver on nbn 1000/50 $99/Month Ongoing (FTTP and HFC Only) @ Buddy Telco (Aussie Broadband)

People negged your comment because of referring to 1000/400, not the comment about CGNAT. Even forcing CGNAT would be fine if they actually…

Arsenal on nbn 1000/50 $99/Month Ongoing (FTTP and HFC Only) @ Buddy Telco (Aussie Broadband)

Yep, same for me. Dynamic IP is easy enough to deal with by using a Dynamic DNS service, but CGNAT is a no go.

The expansions don't really change the gameplay, they just add more content. So buy the base game and only if you get through all of that…

You should check if you do. A complete original copy of Hero Quest can fetch up to $1,000 on eBay.

CarbonTwelve commented on 80% off Most BEKANT Office Desks & Parts + Delivery to Selected Areas ($5 C&C under $50 Order/ $0 In-Store) @ IKEA
Sit/stand seems to be sold out in VIC.

Even worse for me; not only did I find I already owned it, but apparently I even played it for 8 hours back in 2016...
