Krad3r on RTX 3080 Intel i5-11400F Gaming PC: 16GB RAM, 1TB NVMe SSD, 750W PSU & H570 Mainboard $2249 & Free Post @ Titan Tech & FuseTech

This deal has an unknown video card. FTW3 is probably better in terms of overclock and speed.

cille745 on Gaming PC with i5 -12400F, RTX3080, B660M MOBO, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, 850W PSU + Bonus 2TB HDD & Headset $2469 + Delivery @ BPCTECH

It also is one of the highest performing. Don't forget your PC only uses the additional power when the card demands it.

keejoonc on Tenant or Landlord Responsibility to Replace Light Globes? (27 Globes)

huh? Its a repeat freebie, which means they have given it away for free before. See: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/509680

Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair is a repeat freebie.

I prefer double length over 3PLY, i'm not fussed with 2PLY if it means less trees are cut down.

For that price you would want 32GB of RAM, but hey it is DDR5

I pay $180 each service for my Toyota. It’s capped. Yay.

Oh your a spammer now?

WTF? That’s bad advice.

Targeted, I do not see it

I think the difficulty levels for Iratus are a lot better, you can go nuts with harder modes if that's your style.

Yep it’s good, I’ve finished it - I think it’s better than darkest dungeon.
