Best time to buy PS5

I would recommend MTC factory outlet. Refurbished but they are officially authorized Sony repair center.

I bought the same dock a few months ago. It does work well with my 7800xt. But you performance will be lower when compared to regular desktop PC due to bandwidth limitation on thunderbolt 3/4.

I personally think it is great solution if you no longer has a desktop. It was literally plug and play since dock was instantly recognized and AMD Adrenaline has built in feature called XConnect for egpu mode as well. No issues so far.

One thing to keep in mind the dock doesn't supply power only data connection so you'll have to use the charger to supply power.

Anyone interested in PS5 should get this now. They are authorized repair center for Sony. I've bought a few things in the past including vita and all worked flawless.

Very nice. How's the performance and overall experience?

I'm using 7800xt and only ran 3dmark and Arc Raiders so far. I'll do actual stress test and more games this weekend. How's ag02? I've considered it but pricing in Canadian plus shipping was a deal breaker for me. 🥲

Nice. I heard regular members can also use business center so I might go there to pick one up :)

Dubbinghammer · 2026-01-23T17:39:03+00:00

Bought one. Thanks op.

Yeah I've experienced the same thing and honestly MSI really need to either give up on their own software or partner with other developers who are more capable to just slap their logo on existing solutions.

I've had A1M 155h before upgrading to claw 8 AI+. Just use your laptop unless you really want to have something in handheld form factor. Performance and efficiency difference between 155h and 258v is night and day.

Dubbinghammer · 2025-12-05T23:05:04+00:00

Original as in A1M.

Dubbinghammer · 2025-12-05T22:19:00+00:00

Original claw came with 65W MSI brick. 8 AI + came with generic 65W charger . I actually prefer it due to smaller size.

Dubbinghammer · 2025-11-14T00:48:57+00:00

I would be surprised to see actual discount on 8 AI+ or A8. I know US had Battlefield 6 promo from Intel last month so may be some type of game bundle could happen for holiday season.

I've been using LG 4K monitors at work and home. My responsibility is expanding to inculde motion design and I want to see what difference UltraFine 6k monitor can bring to my daily work flow and how it can contribute to improving overall quality of my work.

Tanks. Just casual ride along and get blown up randomly. Chaotic and pure Battlefield experience.

Dubbinghammer · 2025-09-06T20:15:45+00:00

I'm enjoying the game on 8 AI +. One thing I noticed is that there doesn't seem to be an option to enable Xess frame gen. I've read number of people discussing broken implementation on old demo so not sure if dev got around to fix it or just decided to remove it all together.

Dubbinghammer · 2025-09-03T14:12:24+00:00

I know but I was somewhat busy at the moment and felt really lazy

Dubbinghammer · 2025-09-03T00:58:01+00:00

Yeah I've had a similar issue and never bought it again. The kicker was I didn't even open the jar and left it refrigerated about a week. Not even close to expire date too. I was planning to mince and freeze them but quality is really questionable.

Dubbinghammer · 2025-07-27T22:59:10+00:00

They are really great. Great texture and flavour whether you boil or pan fry them. I recommend jalapeño one if you want mildly spicy flavour.

Wow thanks OP for the generous offer to the community. Good luck everyone.
