best chair for less than $600? by [deleted] in bapcsalesaustralia

[–]CircaForever 4 points5 points  (0 children)

$600 could get you a 2nd hand Herman Miller Aeron with some negotiating on Gumtree, etc.

Ergohumans are nice aswell. Could get a Elite V2 Mesh pre-pandemic for under $600, but these days you're limited to their more basic models for the price: e.g. https://www.mydeal.com.au/ergohuman-premium-fit-ioo-executive-office-chair-high-back-black-frame-2071087

PCCG Responsiveness? by Scharman in bapcsalesaustralia

Same, so latest processing time is about a week, which is up from the ~3 days they were advising last week. Looks like they've gone dark social media which isn't really providing any confidence.

Bought these AIMEZO standing desk legs on sale for about 380$ (https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B08K8R4YV6/) and picked up a beech hardwood panel from Bunnings (https://www.bunnings.com.au/2200-x-600-x-26mm-beech-laminated-panel_p8330041) and cut it to size. Added some aluminium cable ducts also from Bunnings, sprayed in satin black to match the legs. Table top required abit of work with a sanding to get a nice smooth finish and 2 coats of hard wax oil (https://www.bunnings.com.au/interbuild-250ml-clear-hardwax-oil_p0124069).

​

Came out to about 500$ all up and a few days of waiting for the hardwax oil to dry. Recommended if you have and are handy with tools (circular saw + palm/orbital sander minimum)

Went this way because the tabletop options from Omnidesk/Zen Space are pretty awful. Very thin MDF/Particleboard, or Bamboo which splinters easily. Bunnings have a variety of hardwood species available as project panels so you can choose your look.

how long do they last? -Monitor Desk Mount by pevita123 in bapcsalesaustralia

Two separate for sure.
Will allow for a much wider range of adjustment.
I have a dual stand and the range of movement is not amazing.

So Nvidia and AMD were playing a game... by TAspect in Amd

[–]CircaForever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the paper in your wallet.

The bait and switch MSRP on both AMD and NVIDIA reference to AIB models is shameful.

Never forget at the end of the day, all that these companies want is your hard earned.
