Cheapest one I could find. My Vertuo Next machine is on the way out. Comes in Blue, Yellow and the sleek Black.

@mikejohnson27 @lordra So.. you were spot on mike.. bios version with AGESA ComboPI 1.0.9.0 for my motherboard fixed it. Legend!

@mikejohnson27 Sorry to late reply, mate. The MSI website for my board does not list the 7900 GRE as compatible yet. I raised this with a…

@lordra Unfortunately no luck. I am waiting on Scorptec to reply to me to get a refund / replacement.

Yes my GPU has the red light feature (indicating when the psu cables are not plugged in). I have tried the CMOS reset. the internal HDMI (I…

The PSU cables are definetely plugged in. I have tried various psu cables which I know work, various slots in the PSU itself.

Hey Lodra. Yes it is! Bought it via scorptec. When GPU is seated, it lights up, fans spin etc. I see red CPU light and yellow DRAM light on…

Manual isnt much help. CPU Red: CPU not detected or fail DRAM Yellow: RAM not detected or fail

Sadly I didnt get a dispatch today. Hopefully they honour the deal.

wickybar commented on Lexar NM790 4TB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 4×4 NVMe SSD with Heatsink $299 Delivered / MEL C&C @ Metrocom
Bingo! I was hoping for prices around the $260-$290 range but at current M.2 prices I will grab one.

Lord Ra on Samsung 990 PRO with Heatsink PCIe 4.0 M.2 4TB SSD $423.90 Delivered @ Amazon UK via AU

Any size will do, my Mobo has 2x m.2 slots anyway so can always add-on later. If the 4tb is the best value, I will wait for the Lexar deal.

Just to game on, and store game files. Nothing else really.

wickybar commented on 4TB M.2 Solid State Drives (SSD)
What about 2TB, anyone see anything of decent value at the moment?

wickybar commented on Samsung 990 PRO with Heatsink PCIe 4.0 M.2 4TB SSD $423.90 Delivered @ Amazon UK via AU
Can anyone suggest a 1TB-2TB m.2 ssd deal other than the above? Doesnt need to be lightning quick but should still be good value for money.

At $789, the [RX 7900 GRE](https://www.scorptec.com.au/product/graphics-cards/amd/110413-rx-79gmairw9) seems to be a very solid deal. Plus…

I ended up going for the 7900 GRE mentioned above. I have a white NR200 case that it will be going into so it will pair nicely
