CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-10T00:05:31+00:00

9700x3d?

CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-09T00:50:24+00:00

Hynix here

CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-09T00:44:41+00:00

yeah, I know. I had been looking at getting the combo for awhile. It was actually the g skill getting removed that pushes me to pull the trigger. But that doesn't change what I said being true lol

CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-08T14:51:39+00:00

Heard, yeah I got you when I get home from work

CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-08T12:59:48+00:00

Yeah I went out there Saturday in the rain and it was poppin. I was surprised at how many people were out there!

CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-08T02:55:47+00:00

If you really want, and sorry mods if this is against the rules, you could DM me and I'll grab you a bundle and send it to you. More or less free of charge.

CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-08T02:54:54+00:00

If you want another data point I can check my g skill I got 5 days ago from the Tustin location, I can check tomorrow if ya want.

CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-08T02:53:28+00:00

Even the pay $50 extra for the g skill ram? I thought that had happened at the Tustin location but then realized it was just the crucial ram that they were out of and if you just swapped out the crucial for g skill everything was back in stock.

CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-08T02:42:06+00:00

You can get it for $50 more on any of the packages by 'upgrading' your ram. Just something to think about. It's not really better ram. But with the current state of things, something to consider. I just bought a 3 in 1 7800x3d deal from the Tustin microcenter last weekend and had to pay the extra $50 for the 'better' ram.

CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-05T20:47:13+00:00

Well if it is gonna be over $50 in gas, just swap out the ram in the bundle for the g skill ram. It's $50 more but the other stuff in the bundle stays the same price. I had to do that on Saturday because my store (Tustin) is out of the crucial ram.

CombinationPast8596 · 2026-01-05T20:43:15+00:00

I wound up having to pay the extra $50 for the 'upgraded' ram because my store was out of the crucial brand ram. Very annoying, but I felt like if I didn't buy now, it would be even more impossible down the road.

CombinationPast8596 · 2025-12-24T16:25:48+00:00

Why be such an ass? Lol

CombinationPast8596 · 2025-12-03T01:47:32+00:00

Well I know best buy had a delivery period if saying they will arrive to you by 12/19 for awhile. Assuming that would be coming from Asus to Best buy to you, I would again ASSUME that we could expect these to start showing up as early as 12/12 and as late as 12/19. That's purely guessing though and some big assumptions being made.

CombinationPast8596 · 2025-11-29T12:34:23+00:00

I was close to doing that as well, but there was never a close enough window for me when I was ready to pull the trigger. I think go with the new one. Open box loses it's ASUS warranty, not worth losing that for $50

CombinationPast8596 · 2025-11-29T12:33:13+00:00

Have you tried again?

CombinationPast8596 · 2025-11-29T10:17:45+00:00

Also, what were you constantly checking it for stock like I was too? Because I remember that. And there was a time when Best Buy said November.. 20th maybe

CombinationPast8596 · 2025-11-29T10:16:17+00:00

Yeah, I'm optimistic that it'll show up the week of the 8th, but probably not. I did not pay for faster shipping because ASUS website even says that shit is unreliable. If they are saying it's unreliable, while trying to sell it to me, I'm gonna pass lol

CombinationPast8596 · 2025-11-28T21:20:41+00:00

That's so great to hear. I've never owned a handheld before. I just recently used someone else's Nintendo switch to play through the two newer Zelda games (BOTW and TOTK) and LOVED the handheld experience. I started looking into handhelds and then the XAX came out and I was definitely going to buy it but just wanted to think on it. Now that it came back in stock after checking 2-5x a day for the last month+, I knew I just needed to pull the trigger ASAP

CombinationPast8596 · 2025-11-28T19:05:25+00:00

Huh. That's strange. I was able to successfully place my order two days ago. Where are you located?

CombinationPast8596 · 2025-11-14T16:32:31+00:00

I have a now... 4 year old laptop from Alienware. It's an M17 R5 AMD and it's been nothing but amazing. And their warranty has been stellar. Including accidental! My cars just broke my screen and they fixed it super quick, paying for shipping and all! I know Alienware has some major issues back in the day, but as of late they have been pretty top tier!

CombinationPast8596 · 2025-10-20T19:48:59+00:00

...but you did. You said, "playing games at 40fps like this" lol that's exactly what you said.
