    Just doesn't seem that exciting compared to the 3070 builds ($1000 RRP at the time) for $1500 that happened earlier in the year.

    Compiling on that getting the cards themselves for that price was near impossible, are 3060s hard to get for $900?

    • xyron on 04/11/2021 - 10:54
      +1

      Techfast themselves sell them for $878, so I'd say they have a pretty good supply of them (but probably not great margins).

      In current circumstances this is a decent deal. 3500X still kicks hard.

  • Dack Smith on 04/11/2021 - 11:31

    Better specify with the correct size and spec

    Or some snotty nose whinger might complain and cry about it 12 months down the track lol

      Possible, but unlikley with November allocations.

      No word on allocation on anything AMD rn

  • Ryugi12 on 04/11/2021 - 13:26

    Any more RTX 3060Ti deals planned? Should I go with this one, https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/658509 or hold on if I want a PC for christmas in the 1500 - 2000 range?

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 04/11/2021 - 16:01
      +1

      We're looking at 3060 Ti yep, but CPU is the question. 5600X may not be available to go up a step (and price would increase), and we may not go down into the 3500X pairing with the 3060 Ti.

      • Ryugi12 on 04/11/2021 - 18:56

        Thanks Luke. Looking forwards to an even better deal on 3060 Ti + 5600.

      • nootvert on 05/11/2021 - 19:15

        Any chance of a 3060ti deal at the 1500 price point?

      • Marmz69 on 07/11/2021 - 16:50

        Was hoping for a 3060ti myself but this deal looks pretty good and everything is a lot better than my current pc lol

  • pacer4000 on 04/11/2021 - 13:33

    Hi all,

    I'm keeping an eye on PC pricing for a first gaming PC for my 14 year old. Would this system be considered entry-level or mid-range?

    @Luke, If this is "mid-range", are you planning any Black Friday deals that are a step down from this build (if there is such a thing without it being a potato)?

    Cheers!

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 04/11/2021 - 16:00
      +1

      RTX 3060 is really where it's at in the current generation of cards. I'd call this mid- to mid-high tier, meaning it's at the top end of 1080P resolution performance with High Quality settings and can go into 1440P performance (preferably with the R5 3600 CPU ugprade as well), but 1080P is the sweet spot. Unless older generation cards come back into supply, like RTX 2060, and in sufficient quantity to do a deal which will sell plenty of units and enable us to come up with a deal price, this is about where it's at. I would say it's unlikely this month.

      • pacer4000 on 04/11/2021 - 16:29

        Thanks Luke, appreciate the reply.

      I'd say unlikely given supply of both

  • Real Nimo on 04/11/2021 - 15:10

  • DrSwag on 04/11/2021 - 15:51

    Is there a Youtube channel that can get me up to speed on what all this means. Am looking for introductory level to get me to the point where I move from my super old gaming PC?

    • seethroughthong on 04/11/2021 - 16:48

      You could check out JoeyDelgado. He does some really nice budget PC builds and he goes into detail about parts as well.

      • DrSwag on 05/11/2021 - 10:17

        Thanks. I've added videos to the watch list (y)

    • abuch47 on 04/11/2021 - 17:32

      step1.decide what your max overall budget is
      step2.decide the percentage of that budget that is taken up by the monitor (screen) cost
      step3.find out monitor specs within that percentage
      step4.spend the rest on a PC that fits those specs.

      price to performance is far better at the lower end.

      • DrSwag on 05/11/2021 - 10:17

        Makes sense, especially the price-to-performance.

  • kaikor on 04/11/2021 - 18:09

    This is exceptional to see TF keeps pumping out cheaper and cheaper deals every week, hope others are following this soon!

    Ive been in the market for a pc the last few months and the ozbargainer in me really wants a great deal and I think Luke tech does the best but every time one comes up there's always something wrong with it whether be the graphics card, ram or processor. Just want that holy grail to appear so I can buy it lol

    • eltito on 04/11/2021 - 23:26

      Agreed, I’m in the same boat, been thinking of building my own (even though that would be hard) so that I can at least choose my own parts and get an overall solid build.

      I don’t want the holy grail but I just want an overall solid build. Every time a new PC build comes out, I feel like the comments state that even though it’s an overall decent build they cheap-ed out on certain parts

  • philu1988 on 04/11/2021 - 20:30

    Just a quick quesion Luke or any other member, if you upgrade the GPU to MSI Ventus 2X, would this model have LHR? Thanks

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 04/11/2021 - 22:43

      Yep, all LHR

  • tempestswitch on 05/11/2021 - 00:08

    Can you ship it non built? I love building PC's and this one will be for a sibling so I was going to show them how to build it.

  • McFly on 05/11/2021 - 00:35

    I thought we aren't supposed to order from Techfast or Luke at Techfast.

  • Marmz69 on 07/11/2021 - 16:56

    Self confessed tec noob so unsure about most of this stuff.Had heard there was an issue with windows 11 and AMD and was wondering if anyone here could set me straight on that or not.Been a bad year for me and i have taken a huge financial hit so i cant afford to spend too much.My pc is on deaths door so i desperately need a new one and im hoping this deal is good enough

  • wongphu on 10/11/2021 - 12:52

    how many black friday deals do techfast usually provide during this period ?

  • DKPARTY on 12/11/2021 - 19:39

    Luke,

    Can you please be more specific on the X570 motherboard upgrade on this deal.

    IE, if I place an order immediately what would I be looking at?
