How to Keep Track of Deals on PC Parts?

krampster2 on 01/07/2023 - 12:31

I'm looking to build a new PC and I'm going to buy the parts slowly over the next few months as they go on sale. I check OzBargain every day and am wondering if there are any other sites or methods I could use to find out when PC parts go on sale? I'm interested in both internal hardware components and peripherals.

    You may already be aware of this, but keep in mind that if you're buying parts slowly over time, you won't find out if any are DOA for up to a few months. Of course warranty is still there if you're buying within au, but at most retailers warranty replacements are a bigger PITA than DOA replacements - eg DOA is often exchanged on the spot, vs with warranty having it sent away for analysis and eventual refund or replacement.

      That's a good point, I didn't think about that. I still think I'll risk it though, even if it is a pain to get a refund or replacement through warranty. I'll make sure to buy within Aus though.

    Over a few months? Mate it will be outdated by the time you build it.
