Yeah, RRP for oils have crept up heaps since COVID. I remember Penrite Racing was $45/5L on special back in the day. Now over $100. Can't…

I paid $1,100 for the 7900 XT two years ago - at the time it was the best value for money imo. Edit: I think you misconstrued my comment…

Unless its for something other than gaming, nobody needs this. Ryzen 7600 and a 7900 xt and can pretty much max everything at 4K

Confirming Jimbo is right - DOT3's moisture absorption is slower. If it didn't have this advantage, it probably wouldn't be on the shelves;…
