GIGA-3080-LAUNCH

Party like it's 1995! Kicking off RTX 3080 season with high spec systems through our partnership with Gigabyte, starting at $1998 with the Ryzen 5 3600.

Ryzen 5 3600 or Ryzen 7 3700X | Gigabyte RTX 3080 10GB Gaming PCs: $1998 and $2188 after GIGA-3080-LAUNCH

Here's how allocation works:

  • Limited quantity of Gigabyte Eagle OC cards arriving in September (scheduled for next week)
  • Limited quantity of Gigabyte Gaming OC cards arriving in September (scheduled for next week)
  • More stock is arriving in October for both. Once the "September" cards in the Graphics Card section are marked as sold out on the website, you can purchase the October variants, and your system will ship as soon as they come in.

It is strictly first come, best dressed, no holdsies.

Godspeed.

        That is so true. I have two friends who need a new pc and the only thing holding me back from recommending techfast to them is the brand of the SSD and ram.

        Luke, it would be a killer deal if the RAM and ssd was from a better brand even if it means the price is higher. I would without a doubt pay 50-100 bucks just to get good ram.

          Ram is the easiest thing to replace in the system, and one of the cheapest. Just buy one that you prefer from somewhere else and sell the one that you get included with the system when you want to upgrade. Even then, the HyperX ram that I've seen in some of the shipped systems is still pretty decent.

          • savagext on 13/10/2020 - 14:58

            @CaspahG: I'd be more than happy to get the Hyperx ram in my system.

            Idk how I'm supposed to sell the ram if I choose to replace it. Like who would wanna buy unbranded 'allied' ram or even PNY.

            But still i guess i can upgrade tho. I was thinking, what if the RAM or ssd fails after the 1 year warranty expires? Do the parts get individual warranty? Normally ram sticks come with lifetime warranty but I don't think that will be the case with 'allied' ram.

            From the Amazon reviews of the PNY ssd, it seems that the a LOT of people are having issues with the drive failing after just a year.

    Just got my system yesterday - ordered a September Gigabyte Gaming OC. Unfortunately I wasn't one of the lucky ones to get an upgraded card due to the shortfall from the supplier (I guess those who had chosen more upgrade options got those cards).

    Normally would build my own system, but the value on offer here, I couldn't pass up and thought I'd give it a go of getting a pre-built.

    Based on the pcpartpicker prices of the other system components, basically getting the graphics card for less than $1200 - which is pretty good considering the retail prices and markups of the 3080s people are still trying to get hold of.

    For reference, RAM I got was Corsair Vengeance LPX, PNY CS900 SSD.

    Overall I'm pretty happy with the system - quality components at great prices.

    Ran a quick TimeSpy test at stock settings, no stability issues with the card, got a graphics score of 17k, max temp of 64. Apparently top 1% of TimeSpy scores.

    Running some of my games at 4K using DSR to downsample to my 1440p monitor - still getting 100fps - awesome.

    Will leave things at stock for now, but will look at undervolting the Gigabyte Gaming OC card to reduce power consumption and heat, and probably get better frames during long gaming sessions because of the reduced heat.

    Would recommend to buy.

    PSA - for those of you who got a Gigabyte card - go here to fill in the form to register to get a key for Watchdogs : Legion.

    I registered this afternoon and got my redemption code in about 5 hours. You'll need to register for an Aorus account.

    This deal gets better and better - got Watchdogs and AC Valhalla for free too !

    • ozvictor on 17/10/2020 - 08:08

      I can’t find the check number on the card, as mine is pre-assembled without the box. did you order it unassembled and find the check number on the box? Thanks

        I got mine pre-built too. I only found out about the Check Number when I tried to register the warranty online the day I got my system. Contacted support and they were able to help me out.

        Bit of a silly system from Gigabyte (other manufacturers don't have it that I know of (MSI, ASUS, EVGA)).

        • theknight27 on 26/10/2020 - 21:46

      • gooseberry on 17/10/2020 - 21:25

        AMD have a promotion on at the moment, if you buy a Ryzen 7 or 9, you can get AC Valhalla - Techfast being a system builder would have gotten some codes from AMD to send out with their systems - Luke said they're available until they run our of codes.

    • doweyy on 26/10/2020 - 17:41

      Excellent, thank you heaps for that. Got my check number through Gigabyte Support after a few emails, they asked for the direct invoice from TF which I needed to get via email which was sent really quickly. Process was easy as and waiting for the code now.

      • Flamexio on 31/10/2020 - 17:10

        Hey mate, my PC from TF is on its way to me but I want to get the ball rolling on this before the promo ends. Do you mind telling me what the Gigabyte support email was?

        • doweyy on 31/10/2020 - 19:10

          Hey, so you just need to go to the Gigabyte Support website and create an account, from there you can directly raise a ticket with Gigabyte to get the check number. You'll need to have the original Techfast invoice for the PC to get the check number from my experience, and this involves contacting Techfast Support ([email protected]) to get them to provide an invoice.

          From there, Gigabyte will ask for a few details in their ticket reponse, including a photo of the GPU serial number. That's the issue you may run into prior to claiming, but if it comes early next week you should be within the time to claim. But it's worth raising the ticket now as you will be able to respond to the information they ask for and there's a window of 7 days to respond.

          Hope this helps :)

          • Flamexio on 31/10/2020 - 20:40

            @doweyy: Thank you so much for the response. I only got delivery details on Friday afternoon so I doubt it's coming before Thursday (the promo cut off). I'm not sure whether they'll even allow it if I can't take a photo of it haha. Worth a shot though I suppose.

      Update: Looks like there was a shopping cart error, so it actually totalled to $2643 (without coupon) because CPU upgrade didn't go through.

      I honestly don't know if I should just go with the Ryzen 5 3600, or go through with the upgrade, from a gaming standpoint they aren't that much diffferent are they?

      • fundidadoowa on 20/10/2020 - 11:16
        +2

        I can somewhat help to answer this question because I had to research it myself. For reference, I ended up going with a 3600.

        When you game at a lower resolution, your GPU works less hard and this allows the CPU to reach its full potential. So at 1080p, the 3600 is likely to bottleneck your 3080. Conversely, at 4k, your GPU is working extra hard, and is reaching its full potential. At 4k, the 3080 will bottleneck any CPU no matter what it is. At 4k, it doesn't really matter which CPU you pick.

        At 1440p, a lot of benchmarks showed a 10fps difference at most between the 3600 and the 3700. I'm talking going from 100fps to 92fps type thing. So at 1440p, there is a bottleneck by the 3600, but not a large one. It's up to you if that performance boost is worth it.

        Overall from a cost-performance ratio, I think the 3600 is better value. I'm going to be gaming on a 1440p ultra wide.The 3700 may have more longevity though as it is 8 cores, and the 3600 is only 6 cores.

        In general I'm assuming ultra settings here.

        • Scribbles on 21/10/2020 - 02:58

          Thanks for the info! And yeah the plan is to be able to run games at 1440p on Ultra

          I didn't really do much research on the CPUs till now, I mean I'd be fine with either of them, but I can see myself upgrading in the future with Zen3, so the error ended up being a good thing since it saved me a bit of money for any future upgrades.

          Saw a lot of the comparison videos between the two CPUs and for me personally, I don't think it's worth 200 for an extra ~12 frames for gaming. Maybe 3700 could've been useful for any Photoshop/Editting I also do, but the 3600 should be good for the next few years

      Adding on to this. They said cards should arrive this week or next.
      Fingers crossed.

      Awesome news! was this an October card?

      • creesy on 22/10/2020 - 13:55

        It was

        • ryan1815 on 22/10/2020 - 13:59

          perfect, hoping they got the eagles in at the same time then

          • creesy on 22/10/2020 - 14:01

            @ryan1815: You’d think it would be safe to assume they would

    • fundidadoowa on 22/10/2020 - 16:28

      Lucky…

      Guessing they're still waiting on the MSI ventus cards tho D:

      • creesy on 22/10/2020 - 16:32

        I only got the email because I emailed them first.

        So it is still possible they received other cards today as well.

        Still no shopping confirmation as yet though

        • nascent on 22/10/2020 - 16:34

          I had a shopping confirmation when I bought the item :p

    • DavidBrentIPresume on 22/10/2020 - 19:43

      Get in!!! Great news 😀

    Is the gigabyte gaming oc worth the $100 upgrade compared to the price for the eagle oc?

    • creesy on 22/10/2020 - 18:58

      Apparently has slight better cooler, slightly higher base clock, 360 watt max vs 340, dual bios. Umm one extra display port.

      I upgraded purely because I think the gaming OC is slightly better aesthetically

      • Shameless on 22/10/2020 - 19:08

        Thanks for the comparison! Might snag the system with the gaming oc then ;)

    question guys, does anyone have the Allied SSD 256GB? just wondering if the write speed for this drive is about 50MB/s? seems 10x slower than other SSD drives i have. the read speed however is fine.

    before i lodge a support ticket with Techfast, was wondering if this SSD is normal.

    I looked at Allied website and it advertised this same SSD to be about 500MB/s write, 10x faster than what i am currently getting.
