Meg4 on Audio-Technica ATH-M50XBT2 Wireless Over-Ear Headphones (Black) $139 + Delivery ($0 C&C/In-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

There is passive noise cancellation by virtue of them being closed back headphones, but no active noise cancellation. It might be enough,…

AKG by far, just remember to EQ either way.

They do not. If you want a new wired that outperforms them, try the FiiO FT1 via AliExpress deals. About $160-$180 after cashbacks.

For audio quality? Momentum 4 or AKG N9 @ $200.

Dienk on Galax GeForce RTX 5060 8GB Ex Graphics Card $490 (Was $549) + Delivery @ Gamer Tech

Should slightly outperform it after a simple couple of tweaks out of the box, plus it won't fall to pieces with path traced workloads, and…

CrispyChrispy on XFX Radeon RX 580 GTS 8GB XXX Edition OC+ $159 + Delivery ($0 VIC/NSW/QLD C&C / in-Store/ $250 Metro Order) @ Scorptec

Yes, because if the VRAM budget works for a game, 1440p30 is achievable, as is 1080p60. Neural compression will go a long way to helping…

Are you aware that RDNA3 can encode and decode AV1 video? Are you aware of motherboard prices? Once the RTX 5050 drops down below $300, my…

Either buy a Ryzen 8700G on sale (sub-$350) and progress to a better CPU and dGPU combo in time, or save up for something like an RTX 5060,…

Still a silly price for GB206 IMO, really need to see more from NVIDIA in terms of 5070 Ti mobile pricing.

Depends on the aspects of audio performance you're chasing. The more you're chasing in a total package or the more you're pushing the limit…

Fair enough, guess it's just the matte coating making it less dramatic!

It's not a consistent 1000R, I think that's more of a peak measurement... it's barely different from flat compared to older curved…

itsmoe on Alienware AW2723DF 27" QHD 240Hz IPS Gaming Monitor $399.41 Delivered @ Dell

Honestly the caveat with OLED is that it's so fast it's going to hold the image for longer, so motion compensation becomes super important…

Just as an example, Samsung G6 QHD 240Hz VA refurbs and clearance sales can still be found around this price (before Samsung or eBay…

Neither did the 3050 at first: was a GA106 variant on a 128-bit bus sold for $249 USD. In time this will get cheaper, and then an even…

BROKENKEYBOARD on Palit Dual GeForce RTX 5050 8GB GDDR6 Graphics Card $349 Delivered ($0 C&C/ in-Store) @ Centre Com

They've been producing some variation of GA106 and GA107 for 4 years, probably only stopping to give space for Switch 2 production.

BROKENKEYBOARD on Palit Dual GeForce RTX 5050 8GB GDDR6 Graphics Card $349 Delivered ($0 C&C/ in-Store) @ Centre Com

You're thinking of the 70W GA107 version: the original desktop 3050 was released in 2022.

3nm wafer costs are not much higher, and it's likely we'll see density maximised instead of pushing clocks, making for an ~80% transistor…

15 GB or 18 GB are the only combinations that can be done affordably, 16 GB would need a 256-bit bus, making it cost almost the same as a…
