0jay on [Back Order] Breville Bambino Plus Espresso Machine - Sea Salt $399 Delivered @ Amazon AU

Fwiw I think the non-Plus version is actually better for milk frothing, as most people will get better results than auto frother after a…

Pmpm1898 on Palit GamingPro V1 GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB Graphics Card $1359 Delivered ($0 VIC, NSW, SA C&C) @ Centre Com

Playting through Doom right now, it's sitting at ~58c, and on the default 'silent' profile fans are at 30% - almost totally silent.

reactor-au on Palit GamingPro V1 GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB Graphics Card $1359 Delivered ($0 VIC, NSW, SA C&C) @ Centre Com

Did the noise develop? Or it was like that from new? Mine is super quiet so far, much more so than the EVGA 3080 it replaced

Securityclearance on Palit GamingPro V1 GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB Graphics Card $1359 Delivered ($0 VIC, NSW, SA C&C) @ Centre Com

Fwiw I bought this exact card and have no noticeable coil whine. Maybe it's there and just blends into the rest of the case sounds.

Shame! I bought mine during the promotion, but for those who aren't interested in Doom this is a better deal I guess.

wintermadness posted a deal Palit GamingPro V1 GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB Graphics Card $1359 Delivered ($0 VIC, NSW, SA C&C) @ Centre Com
Cheaper than the last deal. Possibly the cheapest price so far on a 5070 ti? Best value in the mid/high end GPU sector right now imo.…

MegaBytePanda on Palit GeForce RTX 5070 Infinity 3 12GB Graphics Card $1010.65 ($951.20 eBay Plus) Delivered (Excl. NT) @ Smarthomestoreau eBay

If you have eBay Plus, the $1375 deal on the Palit 5070ti is easily the best graphics card purchase atm. It's still overpriced, but so are…

NutImpressed on Palit GeForce RTX 5080 Gaming Pro V1 16GB Graphics Card $1895 Delivered (Excl. NT) @ Smarthomestoreau eBay

20% raster, 35% raytracing, better upscaling, and multi framegen if that's your thing. It's a significantly better card. It's worth more…

Just be happy, you got it at a good price before AMD pulled their pricing shenannigans. At the $1249 it'd cost you now the 5070ti is…

reactor-au on Palit GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB Graphics Card $1423.75 ($1375 with eBay Plus) Delivered (Excl. NT) @ Smarthomestoreau eBay

I'm sure the vapor chamber coolers are better, but I have this model and it barely cracks 60c in games.

Until the 10-15% price increase on NVIDIA cards kicks in. But for now, 5070ti is the pick imo.

9070s are in stock everywhere too, and also overpriced. The price gouging from both sides has made the GPU market horrible value. Weirdly…

Kenwood Chefs *aren't what they used to be* but at this price there's nothing else close

tqqq on Palit GamingPro V1 GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB Graphics Card $1409 Delivered ($0 VIC, NSW, SA C&C) @ Centre Com

Cheapest in stock is $1249, no? Would take a 5070ti over a 9070xt any day at $160 difference.

Bruceflix on ASRock Radeon RX 9070 XT Steel Legend 16GB $1249 + Delivery ($0 to Metro/ VIC C&C / VIC in-Store) @ Scorptec

S24U seems to get a touch louder and it's a little clearer at max volume

JessC on KitchenAid KSM60 5.6L Artisan Bowl Lift Stand Mixer - Red $629 Delivered @ Amazon AU

Just keep it under 1.1kg of total weight if doing dough, and the tilt head mixers will be fine. If you need to do more, bowl lift is the…

Great phone. Changed from an S24U mostly for the better cameras, but also surprised how much snappier it is given that the S24U is no…

GPU is the bottleneck, so for gaming there's no improvement with the U7 over U5
