incipient replied to Sleepycat3 on Noctua NH-D14 $107.99 Delivered via Newegg
I personally wouldn't upgrade. I have the 14 on a 4790k and I kinda regret it haha. My CPU runs stone cold, even with a slight oc, so...

incipient replied to harcle on Gigabyte 2080S Windforce OC / 2080TI Aorus $1299/ $2200 (Save $100/ $199) Delivered @ CGB Solutions
For sure. Next gen GPUs promise to be a huge increase. Covid tax drops off combined with massive jump (look at ps5 performance).

Worth noting this is frozen. Somewhat self evident, but still.

I thought it was just the Android 10 version that had gaaps installed? But yeah if it has gaaps that makes it a much easier purchase!

incipient replied to northshore on Cygnett 57W USB-C USB-A AU, EU, UK Travel Wall Charger - $39 Clearance (C&C Only) @ The Good Guys
Cable is a possible culprit, but intermittent is not a good sign. Ive used an 18W charger, and it works on he book, however slowly.

I expect a lot of these "basically free" deals are companies needing to clear stock to avoid Amazon's insane holding fees.

The main difference likely between the 45w and 18w chargers is voltage the 45W will do 20V, whereas the 18W charger won't.

Difference is CCP blatantly abuses human rights, on a scale bordering cultural eradication. And that's just the stuff they admit to!
