Gone? Saying out of stock for me Shame. As I’m after something to the old backbeats pro, haven’t found anything that compares

Mine turns up today! Installed truenas and a few 18tb drives. Works great.

Yes I’m in Melbourne, though 75km out. The N4 does look nice and I think I’m okay with the compromises if I can keep it quiet.

Mines just shipped. Be interested to see how you go with the n4, I’m considering moving my main lab over to one of those cases as…

I’ve done a lot of research over th e past few days and while I’ve got quite a lot of spare gear I could repurpose into a n4 or n5 the…

Yeah I’m backing up my unraid server with this. Bit over the primaries bulkiness

What did you get? I got the n150 version, noting quick sync requirements and it should be good enough for nas duties

Picked up the wtr pro for 375ish.. thanks op

Interested to hear your thoughts on the aoostar. This looks slightly better tho with ddr5 and multiple nvme slots

Thanks. I’ve got the og deck which I use from time to time and would t mind a little more power but not enough to take a punt on this.

Anyone come from a steam deck to one of these?

I think with AliExpress as long as you stick with vendors (like szcpu etc) you will be fine. I’ve bought about 5 am5 CPU’s off there,…

Lechucks revenge was great. Same with Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, which is my favourite

I game pretty happily with a 9070 at 4K. It’s not perfect but spending 4x as much is really chasing the dragon. If you’re doing ai…

For the record, I’ve got a Palit 5060ti and makes a clicking sound every 10-15 seconds. Not sure if the 4xxx is affected but I’d steer…

I’ve got an og lcd deck and wouldn’t mind something a bit more new to run some more modern stuff. I think this is still rdna2 thou…

I think with the mwave code you can get it down to 740? Also this was 1360 from Centrecom last week

How does this compare to the Alienware? I really would like usb c

So let me get this straight. I’m getting downvoted - in your opinion - because I’m commenting on a post where I am trying to give…

lol at the downvoting though - this site cracks me up sometimes

Ok mate, whatever you say. I own both so think I have a decent understanding and also appreciate that modern gaming is a bit more nuanced…

Yes and no. Pure raster for sure, but people need to take a look (and feel) dlss 4 for themselves.

Just to add - I did some further testing with kcd2 and dlss4 vs fsr3.1 (on Linux admittedly) I was amazed at how well the 5060ti ran with…

Depends on what you’re using it for. 4070ti non super only has 12gb of ram, but performs very well in gaming (I ran one at 4K for a bit).…

I have one of these (a Palit) replacing a 4060ti 16gb. Purpose was ml/ai testing, and for that it seems to be doing an ok job. Also has fp4…

Agree. Although the leaps have gotten very expensive these days.

Probably trs and gift cards

That’s an exactly what I ended up doing. At 1050 the 9070 actually punches above its weight

Yeah that's not great.

Yeah I've got this one sitting to pick up but thinking of cancelling due to the noise issue. Interestingly enough I have a Palit 5060ti and…
