  • Very solid price given the current shortage of parts!

    • +4

      or just wait until there is no shortages

      • +1

        how long will that be?

        • at least 2022 for 3080

          • +6

            @wjb: I see you are a glass half-full kind of person

          • +1

            @wjb: but could be waiting til 3080 because crypto mooning

        • When the next gen cards come out and there are second hand miner cards. Wouldn’t recommend though.

      • +6

        Or just buy the thing you want instead of waiting months/years. I get saving money, but you'll be perpetually waiting at this point.

    • Thanks XD

  • -3

    respectable price but the cpu is a bit of a letdown

    • Not just that, but for me it's also the ancient looking Case.
      Feels like I'm time travelling 🤩😂

      • +12

        You would have nightmare for weeks if you see my case …

        • +7

          I mean, at the end of the day screw the looks, if it does it's job by keeping dust out and the insides cool, I'm sold 🙏🏼🤓

      • I actually have a similar case from Cooler Master. It's very practical to work with at least!

    • +1

      Kinda. I mean it's still $2k for the 3080..

      • +3

        $2k for 3080 is cheap these days, the xc3 is a particularly good model as well

        • The people down voting you obviously haven't seen current auctions on eBay for used 3080's.
          They go for around $2.5k…

          • +2

            @Viper8: Guess there are a lot of suckers out there then

            • @reactor-au: Not suckers but miners

              • +3

                @botchie: Game during the day, mine when not gaming… Done that since I got my 3080… Makes 200usd/month and I game in 4k. Best 1700 I've ever spent.

                • +1

                  @drjamie: fake news

                • @drjamie: Just enough to cover the cost of the electricity and wear-and-tear :D

                  • @ajm: Hehe the joy of solar :)

            • @reactor-au: they're not suckers if the choice is favourable, you makes around $200-$300/month mining depends on your other usage, i paid the premium back in december for $1700, now cards are easily going for $2000 used while I have made over $700 in the process

              the people that wait for cheap preorder from PLE are the real suckers here

        • -2

          Sure. Doesn't mean I'm ok with it.

          • @justtoreply: Sure. What's that got to do with people down voting In28909 for stating facts?

          • +2

            @justtoreply: The fact that In28909 thinks the 5800x will bottleneck any consumer grade parts on the market, and keeps trying to shill intel parts, is enough to tell you his head is so far up his own ass he'll never see the sunlight.

      • +4

        1.45 at most retailers, it's one of the bottom end 3080's out there. I don't think at this price it's a competitive system. Even if you add $300 via scalping it's still $1800 which leaves the rest at $1600

        • +2

          Sold out everywhere though…

          But agree it's one of the lower-end 3080s (looked it up after seeing this deal the other day, apparently has thermal issues).

        • +2

          why is it bottom end? thought EVGA would be one of the better offerings.

          • +1

            @abuch47: Most likely because it appears to be a thinner dual slot card which has far poorer thermals and because of this much more noise + less performance.
            At the end of the day yes it's still a 3080 but based on these things alone and more if you can be bothered to look more in depth (i can't tbh i just skimmed the important points) it does qualify as one of the lowest possible cards on any tier list.

          • @abuch47: It isn't, better than all of gigabyte lineup in term of thermal and performance I'm fairly sure

            • @ln28909: thankyou for the in depth reply xD

              • @abuch47: Gigabyte is atrocious for their cooling, and their more expensive lineup the aorus, actually has the worst cooling this time around for all models available in Aus

            • @ln28909: Actually it only beats barely the 3080 eagle series which is Gigabyte's lowest tier card (same as the xc3 series from evga). Although I should say that it beats the eagle at a lower price. Again this would be a valid argument if we were buying gpu's alone but my original point is that you get a whole PC extra at $1600. (or $1900) if you don't add $300 of scalping.

              • @Lighter Fluid: it beats the aorus master in terms of thermal, the eagle and gaming oc are actually gigabyte best cooling card this series, better than their aorus lineup

                and that's only for core clock, on memory temp, gigabyte is absolute ass compared to evga

                • @ln28909: thats better, ta ;)

                  • @abuch47: Lol go ahead almost everything he just posted is false. The master has more efficient cooling per watt at a standard noise ceiling of 59 db. It has faster core clock, memory speed and of course higher power requirements and temperatures. He's straight up ignoring apples to apples and just picking facts with no context.

        • +4

          Pray tell us which retailers are selling in stock 3080s for $1450.

          • +1

            @Trawler: Actually if you check the in stock discords you'll find that these were sold at that price whenever they were in stock with most recent in February 2021. You just need a bot running alot of windows to buy one. No one said getting 3080's were easy i'm just pointing out that this price isn't competitive. This is ozbargain, not land of oooh $1800/1900 for a $1400 3080 i'll take it!

            • @Lighter Fluid: Can you recommend an in stock discord that I should be lurking on? Also on average how long do cards stay in stock after an alert is up on the discord?

        • Except no retailers have stock.
          These are selling for $1k over RRP on eBay when USED.

          • +1

            @Viper8: ebay's a poor estimate of what these actually cost via reselling as most don't want to take the 10 or 11% tech tax that ebay takes. You'll find them for closer to 2k on gumtree/facebook marketplace mate.

            Again, these are valid arguments if we were buying a gpu but no we're buying a $3400 gaming rig. Most people don't need a $3400 gaming rig and i'm just putting it out there that even if they were desperate enough to do this, this isn't a fantastic deal as the cost alone for the gpu, if we take the other parts at retail cost is close to buying it off a scalper.

            • @Lighter Fluid: Since when were we talking about the cost to sell? We're talking about the cost to buy. And people are buying for mid-2's on eBay.

              • @Viper8: The amount is negligible compared to other fee-less online markets.

                Also we were always talking price to buy.

      • do people realise that OEMs arent paying inflated prices?

    • +12

      How's the CPU a let down? it's one of the fastest and cheapest for gaming

        • +2

          lolwut? What a waste getting a 5800x just to sell it… And we're talking about 6 cores on the 5600x anyway… Not 5800x…..

          • +2

            @aaronsd: in28909's comment made no sense BUT I agree that a 10700k system would allow you to save alot more on the motherboard/ram and be a far cheaper psu overall. I bought 3 10700k's via comp alliance last ebay sale for $359 delivered. It'll be destroyed in workloads but for gaming (why would you buy a 3080 system otherwise) there's far less of a difference especially considering a 10700k will boost to over 5ghz if you cool it well.

      • +3

        I don't understand why someone with mainly gaming workload needs something more than a 5600x. The FPS gains going with a more expensive CPU are totally not worth the FPS/$. If you do content creation or something creative related and game on the side then I get getting something more than a 5600x…

        • +3

          the 10700k and actually the 10600k are highly competitive gaming cpus at far lower prices than the 5600x, and most importantly in stock.

          • +1

            @Lighter Fluid: Yeah you make a fair point, it's been such an exciting reversal on the whole performance vs price thing between Intel and AMD across most of their line-up!

      • because you can get an 8 core 10700k for cheaper

    • +2

      What's wrong with the 5600x?

      • +2

        It's overpriced for a 6c12t cpu

        • +4

          Don't look at the performance, just count the cores/threads

          • -1

            @mickeyjuiceman: C/t is more important for what I do

            • +3

              @ln28909: In most productivity workloads the 5600x is similar to the 10700k despite the 2 core deficit. in that case you'd be more looking at a 5800x or 5900x 12 core 24 thread if you're not gaming but mostly doing production workloads - which is well documented and tested at this stage

              • -1

                @Doomedgrind: not if you want to run some light task in the background and game at the same time, it's only similar if you're only gaming or work 1 at a time

                • @ln28909: What a load of bullshit. Sure if you're rendering or doing something CPU intensive but light tasks do not give an issues. Going through these comments it seems like you're a bit of an intel fanboy and not adding anything to the discussion.

                  • @Bpw87: i use a 3950x myself, main downside with amd is the lack of integrated graphics, even a 5800 is bad if you're planning on multitasking from my experience, zen 3 is only really relevant if you buy 5900x or 5950x, if you're budget doesn't go that far, then zen 2 or 10th gen intel

                    • +1

                      @ln28909: What is "multitasking" your opinion? The term is very broad and can vary significantly between people. If you're running VM's or rendering I can understand but that's not a most people real world scenario. In that you also mentioned you are going to a 10700k? How is that anything but a downgrade from either a 5800x or 3950x for multitasking

                      I run a 5600x and have a 3070. I can play pretty much any game in my library maxed out (given almost all aren't current AAA titles) at 1440p and maintain 144fps or very close to. Whilst doing that I can stream my gameplay for my friends, using chat programs, streaming youtube videos, have 20 plus google chrome tabs open and never have issues. I might lose a few frames here and there depending on the the task but it never feels like a bottleneck that is noticeable or worth going to a higher tier CPU.

                      I will say that the 10600k, 10700k and 11600k aren't bad and especially the 10th gen was on sale they are great options and will give comparable results in most gaming situations and similar uses as mine. But they are also crazy power hungry and hot. My 5600x boosts to 4.65ghz all core out of the boxes in most games, 4.3ghz in 100% load tests and runs at about 65-70c on air in a 20c room and uses 72w. No intel CPU can even go close to that power efficiency for similar performance.

                      • @Bpw87: i want to be able to game when having a vm open at the very least so 8c16t don't cut it

                        and i recommend 10700k because it is a much better cpu than 5600x of this deal, but yes personally can't buy intel cause they don't have enough c/t unless i go to something more extreme and expensive

                        I would never buy a 5600x, absolutely pointless, gaming 1440p is mostly gpu bound on games that are demanding, sure it is faster on esport and what not with 5600x, but you don't really need 500+fps

                        for the same price you can get more cores, or for a much lower price you could get the same amount of cores, don't know people are buying 5600x in this day and age

                        • @ln28909: You're going to hate when I say, I use a Ryzen 5 1600 AF with a VM in the background, while running a game on the host…. and it works fine……..

                          • @Doomedgrind: depends on your hardware, it's a pretty big bottleneck if you run dual gpu like me

                            • +1

                              @ln28909: Yeah I understand. And do agree that a 10700k with a cheap motherboard at the discounted prices right now would be a great option for anyone looking to build new right now.

                              But I cannot agree that the 5600x CPU is a let down in the pre-built system offered here. While your workload seems to be a niche case, the 5600x is more than what 90% of users would actually need. Users buying this system probably don't know what a VM is, very small percentage would even know how to stream a game at the same time as playing one

                              • @Doomedgrind: it's more that I see no value added using a 5600x instead of a 10700 and rather a decrease in overall potential performance while paying more

                                • @ln28909: How much you willing to bet if the system integrator swapped the X570 and 5600x for a z490/z590 with a 10700 it would be the same price?… at that point there is no argument on price but, I would argue at that point that you get more features on the X570 platform with future upgrade path to CPUs like 3900x, 3950x, 5900x, 5950x, PCIE 4 support while at the current moment the 5600x performs similarly or better than a 10700 (non k that you specified here)

                                  • @Doomedgrind: fast ram is overrated, even more so for intel, just get a b460 and run ram at 2933mhz, you'll won't notice the difference anyway, if they are charging b460+10700 at the same price of 5600x + x570 then go to someone else lol

                                    and yes, I specified non k as most people won't oc anyway

      • 3600 was $239 at the previous ebay sale, 5600X is at cheapest $490, it doesn't pass my math, my last 3600 can do stable 4.4GHz all core……

        • +2

          for sure, 3600 shouldn't be written off for gaming at all and still a very capable gaming CPU, especially for 1440p resolution with 3070 (if you ever bother with a 3000 series from nvidia - i for one will not support the graphics card pricing bubble and will just not game until prices come back to more realistic RRP)

          • +1

            @Doomedgrind: Agree, 3080 launched at ~$1350, the world is mad

          • @Doomedgrind: The issue is the manufacturers are used to people paying stupid $$$ for GPU's - why would they lower the prices? Doesn't really make business sense.
            I hope they do drop 25% but not holding out for 1-2 yrs in hope.

            • @pharkurnell: You are right, we need to look in the mirror and ask ourselves, is a graphics card important in life and worth paying 200-300% mark up over all the other priorities in life, and if the answer is Yes, then the business will take that as you are willing to pay at that price point. Thus, the business will take that as they have the correct market price and are selling the right product at that price, so will continue to do so.

        • BTW, 5600x is at $459 with code ppsaver at https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/AMD-Ryzen-5-5600X-4-6GHz-6-Cores…

          Only 3 left (bought one myself)

    How does this compare to the Alienware Aurora R12 with the RTX 3080 ?

    Also, typo on the number after Ryzen in the body?

    • +4

      Similar. This has better ram and more useful storage (no hdd tho), not sure about cpu. Kinda sad when dell's Alienware is price competitive with regular pc shops.

      • -5

        Thanks,

        As I know very little about computer specs, the benchmark results from googling are showing me that the i9-11900F absolutely destroys the CPU here?

        https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-intel_core_i9_1190…

        Sorry this is "K" whereas the other one is "F". Not sure how much difference that makes either, if any.

        • +13

          cpu.userbenchmark are absolute clowns who are notoriously biased towards Intel. Do not pay them any attention whatsoever.

        • -1

          Well there you go.

          It's a lot of money. I'm not sold on either.

          If you want one right now I'd go the dell. Mostly because it isn't ryzen, which has known usb issues.

          But it's ugly AF. And the smaller pcie drive is a nuisance.

          In practice I don't know what you're using it for but doubt you're going to notice a difference in speed.

          I'm waiting for ryzen usb issues to be sorted and hopefully 3080 availability to coincide. Then I'll build what I want. But whilst amd has acknowledged the USB issues they are being useless on fixing it/keeping people informed.

        • +3

          K means it's overclockable
          F means it has no integrated GPU
          KF means it's overclockable and has no integrated GPU

          techpowerup, techspot, hardwareunboxed, gamersnexus, among others, are far more reliable for CPU/GPU comparisons

        • Userbench is absolute garbage and should be considered satire at this point.

      • +1

        Doesn't say what brand ram or model that it is or what die it uses, so how do you know it is better?

  • Latency of the RAM? C16? or 18?
    Pretty tempting

    • Hi borgia-,

      The Ram is 3600MHz CL18

  • No USB-C port at all? Max USB speed capped at 5Gbps?

    Good for gaming only then.

    • Wow, that is one basic X570 board.

  • Which PSU is it? 750w Gold can mean a lot of things and based on the mobo/ssd being Gigabyte, there's a decent chance the PSU is as well and I think people would want to know if it's one of their Gold units.

    • +3

      Hi divvydan,

      The PSU is In-Win 750W 80+ Gold Power Supply.

  • any chance of doing a similar deal with a dvd drive/slot?

    • Hi Krayzie666,

      Unfortunately, the DVD function is limited by the case design.
