Thank you for the feedback & thanks to the OP. I have bought several autos from Starbuy & I love the yellow dial on this one (it will be my…

Had a look at the website and hats' off to the lady who has started and directed this small business. Well done! However, OB has a large…

I'm curious. This unit is discontinued according to Choice. Poor electronics causing failure due to dust buildup and no spares available.…

It does assist, thanks. My understanding is that refurbished drives are essentially rebuilt in part - perhaps new spindles, platters, heads…

I've attempted a little research on recertified Seagate drives (and reprocessed Seagate drives). I've found Seagate's public facing…

Bought one (MDCCF-9) yesterday afternoon from the 2 remaining at Balcatta store, Perth northern suburbs. We have A/C in our upstairs big…

Thank you OP, JB HiFi in Joondalup (WA) price matched this for me - local warranty, click & collect. I bought it for my adult grandson who…

Thanks OP, bought a couple more. For those who are interested in facts rather than opinions, I might be able to help.…

Got greedy, bought 2. For anyone in Perth's northern suburbs, they're still in (diminishing) stock in Wanneroo store. A great bargain @…

I'll use this exclusively for my PC so it will probably take around 2 years or so or even longer to use the can. 15 litres of petrol spread…

Metro Perth here, no problem with Amazon Prime shipping. Thanks for the deals, got one of each! Great value. I'll compare the screen…

I'm on my third Asrock board, a Z690 Taichi & it's frankly awesome. Extremely high end specs, 20 power phases, Japanese caps etc etc I'm…

Don't use your Visa or MC. Use a shield like PayPal it's worth it & secure as well.

Received them, very good sound for my requirements (hearing is excellent for an old bugger like me). A little tight on the ears but I have…

Bought one! In fact at that price point, it was just what I was after. My last set was Edifier which was even less expensive and great for…

Lol. I have to disagree. As a man with a genuwine Guiness beanie and a genuwine personalised Guiness pint glass, bottles are closer to the…

Not "seems like a good price" OP. It *IS* a good (actually, great) price! Just click&collected 2 sixpaks, waiting for the SMS. I'm in…

Or for that oft neglected class of builder, the wealthy enthusiast - or an even more esoteric subset, the overclocker.

I'm not overly impressed by Gigabyte's fan tech either. The only Gb card I ever owned (very briefly) was a three fan setup R9 390 - when I…

I have 5 P12's and 4 P14's (PWM PST) all daisy chained to 2 fan headers on the MB (Taichi Z690) and a case power-assisted fan header which…

Bought the 850 as a PSU for a second machine I just decommissioned but want to rebuild and keep or give to a family member. With a $15…

This is a good price but it's a shame they're white otherwise I would buy. Excellent reviews. My tow bob's worth - people are paying up to…

Red hot advice and blazing fast! Thanks to you all. I was pressed for time when I put this together (Twitter and Telegram) so I'm very…

Morning. I need to buy a Taichi Z690 and it's pretty expensive here in Australia. The best quote I can find is $899 online (Mwave). Looking…

I joined Tangerine after a bit of research about 2 years ago. They were my first NBN provider and I'm still with them well after the…

I'm intrigued. This would only apply to prescription lenses though, is that right? You need prescription lenses for distance sight so you…

I took the plunge with the make but another model (see above) because it was dirt cheap and it's Amazon, so no risk. If you like the look,…

Agreed. But I won't buy another and my comments might have value to anyone here making the decision to buy or not. My experience shouldn't…

Yep, I'm more than happy to give the benefit of the doubt - the Chinese are not renowned for good QA methodologies. I wouldn't mind knowing…
