See there's the point, you're saying B grade, I've had a look at the site and thet only description that leaps out at me was "very good-…

If they're saying when new it could go for 10 hours battery tests and now it goes for 7 hours, that's a reasonable statement. If they're…

Asking to put the year on is more than reasonable. At 5 years old laptop batteries are typically shot - the claim of 70% life now will be…

Late reply I know.. but yes I'm running a 9800X3d and an RTX5070Ti and it is showing up on CPUZ as PCIE5x16 HOWEVER PCIE5 , or at least my…

Nothing specific, mainly it is too good to live in a cupboard when I got the beelink eqr6 for $405, which as I said has a built in power…

Nope, windows 11 Pro running hyper V servers, no issues whatsoever while I did that. Was running PLEX conversions on the internal GPU…

Not sure what this supposed issue was with 96gb as I never had an issue... But I wasn't using the machine direct, it was running VM's and…

Yup they just said approved on mine, not bad for a $199 motherboard!

I have one of these with 96gb onboard and it's very good, however I would caution that the oculink is only PCIe 4 x 4 , not x16 and it…

Case Thermaltake Tower 300 $219.00 CPU HSF Thermaltake TH360 V2 ARGB $129.00 PSU 1000e modular $249.00 Fans Thermaltake CT140 ARGB…

Yep that one. Pleasingly has AIO + 2 fan connectors and another 2 chassis fan connectors. I'm in a Tower 300 case, with 2x140's on top…

Using an Asus B650M-E Wifi at the moment, $199, seems to do the job perfectly well with PCIE 5.0x16 working , not sure why anyone needs…

Mainly could not get to the registration page / find a working link that was not taiwanese.

Glad I came back to this thread if I get a free game but had some issues registering : https://www.asus.com/au/events/register/activity_8842

Thanks that at least is goog to know!

Is this store above board? They seem to have a lot of deals, I ordered the 9800x3d which said delivers today or tomorrow but it hasn't been…

Thanks for that, saved me a 1 week wait from amazon US, I hope.

yup codes aren't working and you can order from amazon US for $820 + $15 for delivery within ~10 days

I bought a 5070Ti on my older B550 plus 5900x and have been a little disappointed as the B550 works best at pcie4.0x8, I've been getting…

Thanks , yes that would make a great budget upgrade... I'm moving from a B550 board with a 5900x at 4.4ghz, DDR4 3600 , I would imaging a…

One thing I have notices is there's a pcie 1 slot where you would normally have the x16 slot, which pushes the GPU one slot to the left?…

Thanks for that , I'll be on the lookout for a Micro ATX 2 slot / B850... not sure what benefits X870 brings but I have a B550 and an X370…

What's a good motherboard for these (cheap!) that can support a 9800X3D or above... Bought a 5070Ti and now feel like building a new core…

Once a thorium reactor is started up, it produces gamma rays, making it lethal and impossible to maintain or repair... that means they're…

I came very close to ordering this, but suspect I'd have no room even for verticals on either side and I have a lot of machines to work…

Size, Price, refresh rate, all major ticks but if you tried to sell this for the pretend price (false sale here?) of $2799 you would soon…

While we all wish that performance goes up and costs go down, you have to remember that a $600 2070 is less than half the performance of a…

I have a 13 and 16 year old daughter who've both got these phones and they're pretty good. About the only "missing" feature is wireless…

I like the way you think My B550 i gaming is only running 8x PCIE since the latest BIOS update, so I probably need a new motherboard , CPU…
