Waiting for a product to drop in price so that it is as good value as it's predecessor is a let down if it offers almost no improvement. If…

picket23 replied to Ademos on TCL C855 QD-Mini LED TV: 65" $1,599.99, 75" $2,149.99 Delivered @ Costco (Membership Required)
Yep my thoughts exactly. Prob match a $100 soundbar... Not even close to a decent $300 one though, let alone higher end.
'mentioned it' ... Come on mate it's not a thing to 'mention' you just make a statement, 'I am on leave and won't be on call.'
Makes no difference either way. If you are rostered to be on call then take annual leave you are no longer on call. The leave was approved,…

I know right? It's so funny how people look at one or two numbers and think it makes a TV. Particularly something like dimming zones. There…

680m for the GPU? this seems like a great deal vs the mini PC's I was looking at a few years ago
picket23 replied to picket23 on AMD Ryzen 5 5600 CPU US$78.84 (~A$116.78) Delivered @ cp u Store AliExpress
Also x3d will hold value so you'll make your $100 back if/when you sell it in a couple of years. No brainer for some but the 5600 is plenty…

Totally different point, but yes agreed GPU is usually the bottleneck for most people in most games.

You're right if you don't include the 'damaged box' and refurb sales. However there's been plenty of sales, just not posted as a 1700$ x90l…

You're taking anger out on the wrong people. Hisense are at fault due to their behaviour. They have dudded Australian consumers by having…

And obviously a different OS on the AU vs US TVs which is very significant to many, including myself.
