    I am expecting further developments in the arse derived promo codes

    it's got to be ARSERIPPER for a 3080 based system

    and probably ARSEBLOWER for 3090

      There's a deal for 3600 + gigabyte b450 for $359 atm. Compared to $445 as per pc part picker. Also the case on the price list has no fans.

      Problem still lies with the gpu. 3070 rrp is $800 and is not in stock anywhere other than scalperbay.

            @luketechfast: Look you can word it whatever way you like, but the customer deadset will not receive the PC in 14 business days which is already 3 normal weeks, 1 month is only an extra week.

            I think most people use the general definition of a preorder - example he recent s21 release, pre-order from the 14th Jan, ships 27th - still a defined ETA, no different than a 2 week wait vs your 3 week wait. Your'e basing it on techfast's definition compare to your other deals where your waiting on stock.

            I've still recommended your systems to 3 friends and all 3 of them got their systems after the 1 month mark, one of them was after 2 months. We joked about an early October purchase getting to him after xmas, it came 2 weeks before xmas, so a wait time of 2 months and a week approx. If the majority of your systems did ship at 14 days at least 1 in 4 (including my purchase) would have made it before 1 month.

        Also considering between the XPS and this deal. Could you please explain how it is better??

        The Dell i7-10700k seems to perform higher than the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Processor.

        If I upgrade it to match the Dell so change the SSD to 1TB, add a 2TB Hard Disk Drive, upgrade the case so it is a closed case, add on windows 10 activation. Then the price is just about the same as Dell's $1999.

            @d39833: This deal has more bang for buck than DELL. DELL has 500w PSU which is BELOW NVIDIA's recommendation and DELL uses undervolting to manage current flow to their card. Also, DELL's 3070 has 2 fans, this deal should have GPU with 3 fans (I hope).

              +2

              @oliman: In the XPS deal thread where you discussed the Geekbench results with BushWickBill, the table you linked clearly shows those 3070s with higher scores are OC models. The GPUs are all clocked at 2.2GHz.

              Now if your argument is that this PC uses an OC model and the Dell uses a non-OC model for the same price, then fine… but that's not undervolting/underclocking. That is the other card overclocking.

              And everyone keeps saying "Nvidia says you have to use a 650W PSU". This is only partially true as not all PSU are equal. The Dell 500W psu is platinum rated, whereas many standard/lower quality PSUs are not.

              More importantly, the Nvidia spec sheet for the 3070 clearly states as a footnote to the 650W figure "Recommendation is made based on PC configured with an Intel Core i9-10900K processor. A lower power rating may work depending on system configuration."

              This looks like a great deal FWIW. This will likely be cooler and more upgradable than a Dell XPS, but also significantly larger. Buy whatever you prefer.

              • ln28909 on 04/02/2021 - 11:17

                @lunchbox99: Platinum rated vs exceeding the wattage limit are different thing, the platinum rated psu on the dell are el cheapo compared to atx psu and generally use in environments where noise is not a concern

                The dell prebuilt would perform like a 10700f underclock and a 2 fans 3060ti if you were to build one yourselves

                • lunchbox99 on 04/02/2021 - 11:56

                  @ln28909: It does not exceed the rating. You are basing this on speculation. What exactly leads you to believe the PSU is an "el cheapo". Also you clearly don't understand what platinum vs bronze means if you feel this has no impact on power delivery.

                  We have already been through your baseless speculation in the XPS 8940 deal thread about the GPU being "like a 3060ti". Remember that? Where you ate shit and admitted you were wrong? The thread where I posted the nvidia specs. The thread where you had to admit the reference design has a single power connector.

The card sold by Dell exactly matches the Nvidia specs. If you're now claiming that you can buy an OC 3070 that is faster, then that is a completely different argument.

                              In any case, you're the one making extraordinary claims that Dell is apparently selling fake 3070s - go research it yourself. I ain't your benchmarking bitch.

                                      @ln28909: Mate I haven't run a benchmark in at leat 10 years. You know why? Cause I don't care if my cpu or gpu could be slightly faster. Why would I care if my card can do 90fps vs 95fps, or 140fps vs 150fps. It makes zero difference (to me) to the ability to play AAA games.

                                      Similarly, I don't lose sleep by not tuning my car for absolute maximum possible performance because I don't care. All that matters to me in a pc these days is that it's relatively small, relatively quiet, it's styling is not garish (hate "gamer" style), and that it can do what I use it for.

                                      So let's say for example that you're right and that by using a small case the bios fan/voltage profile slightly limits CPU/GPU performance. As long as games are above 60 fps I don't care.

                                      You want to max out your overclock, or eek out fps - then go for it. Been there, done that, dont care anymore.

                                      In any case, if you really want to know I'm sure someone has posted benchmarks. Go look it up.

                                      What I am absolutely confident about is that Dell is not engaging is some bizarre mass-scale fraud whereby they are selling PCs with RTX3070s that are not real 3070s. I am sure of that.

                                        @lunchbox99: Because it is the difference between 3060 ti and 3070, not even talking about overclocking, just run it at stock settings lol

                                        Have you seen linus tech tips secret shopper?

                                        Sure they don't use a 3060 ti and called it a 3070, but they would sell you 3070 that performs worse than 3060 ti (for example. This is like a known fact

                                        But like I said, it's true, you shouldn't run any benchmark otw you'll realise how much money you have wasted

                                          No matter how much you say it’s 3060ti, it’s not. Why don’t you file a lawsuit against dell if you’re so confident. Why don’t you make a complaint to the ACCC? Why don’t you call your mum and tell her about the mean company and all the mean people on the internet who won’t believe you. It’s important godammit!!

                                            @lunchbox99: Because nvidia say puts 1800mhz clock on paper but most card will boost to 2000mhz with appropriate thermal and power headroom , so even if the dell underperforms, it is still within specs, that's the loophole lol

                                            They're not doing anything against the law, just like how in laptop there is a high power vsriant and low power variant, even they are name the same, the performance is drastically different

                                            I've no idea why are you speaking like a child, but anyway

      Hard choice if i bought this system i would upgrade the mobo to a brand name and add another HDD to match the dell specs (2TB) also add WiFi and then you have to buy windows, Probably change the stock cooler which would increase the price by at least few hundred. If using Techfast prices this is around $1978 (without the cooler upgrade) with the discount code.

      While the Dell already has every thing you need for the same price and the i7-10700k is a better CPU especially for gaming. Only down side is OCing on the Dell mobo?

      • abuch47 on 04/02/2021 - 13:18

        rust spinner

        no

        buy windows

        lol no

        stock cpu cooler

        its fine and this deal will be much cooler at base specs and be completely upgradeable.

        10700k

        at 1080p sure but you don't need a build aimed at 1440p then do you.

        dell delivery/warranty for absolute noobs will be good which are the only people who should go that way

          Meh i can't judge the Dell system as i have never used it. I have an Alienware Alpha that is still going, 6 years old now i put 3k hours of BF4 on it, plus many more hours on other games and it was okay. Sure the Dell mobo is basic but it gets the job done.

          I think you will find the majority of us still use mechanical hard drives for mass storage.

          Stock cooler on the 3600 is not good and i wouldn't recommend using the stock cooler its as bad as Intel's attempts at a cooler. I own a 3600 even when not OC running prime95 it would overheat.

          As a AMD fanboy i would still chose the Intel CPU over the 3600 as its generally faster and is a tier above especially for the same price.

          You could always spend a bit more on a few case fans to help the Dell system perform better. If you want to future proof buy this system (Techfast) but upgrade the mobo.

      The dell 8940 deal has expired. I have been deciding between the dell and techfast for awhile. I heard the dell suffers from overheating which can't be good in the long run.
      Watch this video: https://youtu.be/CEdCpRTLQTE
      It will turn you off buying the dell for sure.

  • oliman on 03/02/2021 - 22:42

    good price

    Geez, after upgrading damn near everything on this is still a great price..
    Really want a 5000 card though..

      can anyone please advise what’s the priority / order of upgrades for this system as hoping to keep within a budget

      • Shef3000 on 03/02/2021 - 23:10

        Buy as is, if it suits what you do you have saved. If you need to upgrade pull out the 3070 and add a 2nd hand 1060 and sell, then upgrade to what you need.

        by and large this is an exceptional deal for a gaming pc, if you have specific purposes in mind that can help with the answers persons can give, as far as keeping within a budget and thus in some sense future proofing I would tentatively (because I'm not the most versed person when it comes to computing) suggest upgrading the cpu but even that is far from necessary

      • Salmando on 04/02/2021 - 00:26

        I'm upgrading the motherboard to the x570 with wi-fi, for both future proofing and built in wi-fi (LAN not convenient where it will be)

        I'm choosing to upgrade the power supply, just better. Probably not strictly needed.

        I'm upgrading the cooling to 240mm because I really would like a 5900x

        Upgraded case because it needs to be upgraded for most for the cooling and motherboard I think. I also hate the look of the stock tower.

        Choosing to double ram. This isn't really for gaming for me, more game development.

        So! Upgrade board if you plan to upgrade this at all. Power supply is a nice upgrade, not really needed, but more efficient. Upgrade the cooling at least one level of you live mid/North of Australia, or game pretty heavy. I'd 100% upgrade the case if you ever plan on adding or changing anything.
