No offence, but half of you are parrots that regurgitate the same talking points whilst having no practical experience with the product…

Care to elaborate? If you're aware of the drawbacks (i.e., poor performance for hardware configurations lacking ReBAR and in games using…

I did some research on this prior to purchasing, and the consensus was that the brand was perfectly fine, but uncommon beyond Chinese…

Certainly not an expert in this area, but my feeling is that the A580 for $259 or A750 for $299 might be the better value options for your…

That's for Nvidia (and presumably, AMD) graphics cards. Intel's drivers are not optimised for configurations lacking Resizable Bar (i.e.,…

I preemptively contacted Centre Com regarding the promotion, and all of the Intel graphics card models (inclusive of the B580 which this…

Essentially halves the performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=378GPJH5Pdk

If you'd prefer a different brand, Scorptec has the ASRock Challenger OC model for $449 (sans the $14 discount obviously):…

... and they've removed 'Dishonored 2' from the store without remediating the issue. Absolute amateur hour.

I was tempted, but the price has increased to $719 ($705 with coupon code **MINGLES**).

Yeah, Humble Bundle's payment backend is broken. Oddly, I could purchase a book bundle, but nothing from the store.

Doesn't it work out cheaper to simply buy the 'XCOM 2 Collection' (which includes the base game) for $12.19 AUD from Steam (unless Steam…

Use the coupon code **MINGLES** to save an additional $14 (effectively removes the credit card surcharge).

Starting to piss me off that Amazon won't delivery any of these items regionally anymore. Currently, the Prime subscription doesn't feel…

I churned my FTTP service from Leaptel to Superloop at 11:40PM last night and the service was active within 40 minutes. The whole process…

Fingers crossed there will be an equivalent deal for Black Friday. Would I be stupid purchasing these now if I don't need them for another…

Great deal (relatively speaking). I was waiting for the 'Origin' edition to go on sale for approximately $474 (which was the previous ATL),…

I've previously purchased both the Quest 1 and Quest 2, but sold both a while ago. I recall the experience with the Quest 2 being a bit…

Thanks for that. I believe I have an unused Amaysim somewhere, so hopefully that can be temporarily activated instead. Doesn't look like…

Clearly no virtualisation subjects!

I impulse purchased this, but perhaps should have thought about it for a minute. My intention for purchasing it was to temporarily port my…

Visited the local 7-Eleven. "Do you have the rainbow boss?" "No." "So, you can't do the promo?" "No." The other flavours were completely…

Fingers crossed it changes in the future, but in its current state XDefiant is garbo. The netcode is equivalent to Battlefield 3/4 at its…

Unfortunately, the only Apple device I have on hand is an iPhone 12 Mini, which doesn't even support video output without an additional…

I can't look at used laptops (specifically, MacBooks) the same after the repair video by Louis Rossmann where a customer had somehow…

Looks to be out of stock already... Edit: apologies, it was unavailable for my delivery location, but adding it to the cart with an…

Ordered. I've tried a sit-stand stool from OfficeWorks prior but wasn't overly impressed. Fingers crossed this one is better quality.

I'm all for supporting smaller businesses, and I purchased quite a few tubs during the last sale at Coles to assess whether it could…

I purchased two of these, so happy to perform some testing and answer any questions once they arrive. Certainly not as cheap as the other…
