serpserpserp on [Refurbished] MSI Claw A1M – 7″, FHD, 120hz, U5-135H, 16GB RAM, 512GB - $399 Delivered @ JW Computers

You're right. I think at $400, it's a pretty decent deal though. I'm more of a steam deck user, can't go to handheld windows after quick…

This is cheaper than a lot of handheld Android devices as well.

17.31 $/TB, pretty good. Used drives but if they're in a RAID array with redundancy, that should matter less

Counter-argument, if you can afford to wait for a GPU, always wait for a GPU.

I think that was for the wifi 5 version. These are newer and I haven't seen them lower than this personally.

Sure re/RAID5, but it will not be $1300 anymore :P Always have a backup even in RAID10 if the data is important. DDR4 only, DDR5 has a…

4K gaming is $$$. That said, I have the 1440p 27" version of this and it is really nice.

5090 is the very best? 5070ti is about 10% higher FPS over the 4070ti super.

Hard agree. The 9070xt is not a superior card to the 5070ti and the price should reflect that. It's nice to see the 50 series prices…

Fair enough, I was wrong. Going back the last 30 years, that surge in the 2010s wasn't normal either though.

1 AUD to 63c USD is pretty normal for the last 5 years. Maybe it goes up to 70 in the future and you get a mere 10% discount for waiting?…

Linus Tech Tips was right to say "buy a 40 series now" before the 50 series launched.

This is basically a 4070, with 4GB more VRAM, but without ray tracing and DLSS, for hundreds of dollars less than a 4070. Good deal IMO.
