AlienC on Virco N526a ASUS Solid Gaming PC with AMD Ryzen 5 5600x & RTX 3070 $2258 + Shipping @ Virco Computer

I’d say the 5600x is fine for 99% of the general home use cases. I think it’s definitely the best value in the 5000 series. If you…

AlienC on Virco N526a ASUS Solid Gaming PC with AMD Ryzen 5 5600x & RTX 3070 $2258 + Shipping @ Virco Computer

What I’m saying the guys plan is to buy twice: Ie. 3600 then 5600. But it costs the same price as the 5600x (Money is lost selling 3600…

AlienC on Virco N526a ASUS Solid Gaming PC with AMD Ryzen 5 5600x & RTX 3070 $2258 + Shipping @ Virco Computer

sct911 on Virco N526a ASUS Solid Gaming PC with AMD Ryzen 5 5600x & RTX 3070 $2258 + Shipping @ Virco Computer

Yes. It seems like wholesalers need to sell off older GPU stock, so they are telling the stores they need to order the 6000series with…

Brand loyalty is for schmucks, get the best value for the money you pay. Which is 1650S in this price range without a doubt. Half the TDP…

shellshocked on AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT CPU $339, Crucial P1 1TB NVMe M.2 SSD $129 + Shipping @ Shopping Express

Changing the architecture means games optimised specifically for zen2 would not be as optimised for zen3, negating some of the…

8azinga on Galax GeForce GTX 1650 Super EX (1-Click OC) 4GB Graphics Card $209 Shipped @ PC Byte

This is comparable to a 5500XT 8GB. (Better TDP but slightly lower/better performance depending on game/driver) The RX570 is significantly…

[Deactivated] on Asus Radeon ROG-STRIX-RX570-8G-GAMING 8GB GDDR5 $179 + Postage @ Shopping Express

I don’t get why people compare the 1650S to this, the 1650S is faster than the RX580... The 1650S is more comparable to the 5500XT

adepta commented on Lif3 Smart Chip $0.50 @ Shaver Shop
Even at 0.70 this is a complete rip off and worth a neg. Do not encourage stocking of worthless conspiracy-ware. Buying at any price only…

It isn't, 13" laptops come at 4k these days, and 6" phone screens are 1440p. I would not want a monitor less than 4k at 27", unless you are…

There's no way 27" 4k is unusable, my 13" XPS is 4k and looks amazing and so does a 6" 1440p phone. The difference in distance from a…
