This previously popular CPU is back on sale and while it's a couple of dollars more than the all time low you can join Team OzBargain and get 7% back on your purchase as AliExpress shopping credit. I personally have received 3 of these from previous deals and they've all been flawless.
It features 8 cores, 16 threads, base clock of 3.4GHz, boost clock of 4.6GHz with a default TDP of 65W. As usual if you're upgrading from 2xxx or 3xxx ensure you update your motherboard's BIOS first before installation.
AU$ based on current Mastercard rate, GST inclusive and does not stack with TCB/CR/SB shopback. Since this is a Big Save limited deal, coupons are not redeemable either.
For those paying in USD this is how you get the correct exchange rate in PayPal:
Setting overseas websites to AUD or letting PayPal do the currency conversion results in an inflated rate. To get the correct rate you need a card without international fees and do the following:
- Set the website currency to USD
- Checkout with PayPal
- Select your card with no international fees
- Click "See currency options"
- Select USD to bill the card in USD instead of AUD
- Proceed with checkout
Now you'll get the correct MasterCard or VISA exchange rate depending on the card.
Thank god it's back thanks bought another x5
