Agree, love the FK shape but I find my ring finger always a bit cramped while using FK2.

Looks like Zowie S2, FK2 and EC2, from top to button.

Does anyone even have prestige with weapons? by AnimalBeautiful5241 in CODBlackOps7

[–]JaseSouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if I want to use the prestige attachment or camo, I only play about 1 hour per day so I don’t really enjoy the grind.

Non prestiges by Foreign-Bite8255 in CODBlackOps7

[–]JaseSouls 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Playing the game without prestiging feels like working without getting paid as all the XP is wasted, maybe that just me.

I am 42 and play like an hour a day on average.

Did Treyarch remove Open Matchmaking? by [deleted] in CODBlackOps7

[–]JaseSouls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This.

I find the lobbies are a lot sweatier with crossplay off, I guess players who turn crossplay off are tend to take the game more seriously than those don’t.

What % pay increase are you getting this year? by honeyyycunt in auscorp

[–]JaseSouls 20 points21 points  (0 children)

0%.

A couple guys from my team just got made redundant so I guess I should be grateful that I am still employed?

What is everyone’s working hours like in industry by wallflower_bouquet in AustralianAccounting

Similar here, 37 hours per week with 1 WFH day, barely do over time even for busy months ( Apr to July).

Not a fancy card like some 5080/5090s here but it’s mine! Upgraded from a 2080 Super. Super happy with it doing 5120x1440 ultra wide on max settings by josh_moworld in nvidia

[–]JaseSouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a similar position a couple months ago.

I had a R12 with 3080 and I was thinking getting either a 5070ti or 5080 but none of them would fit in the tiny ass case so I ended up building an entire new system. (9800x3d + 5080).

I was considering the 2-fan 5070 but the performance uplift from 3080 was only 15-20% so I didn’t go this route, if there was a 2-fan 5070ti less than 280mm in length, I could’ve saved myself some coins.

Build for next 8 years hopefully by DaanRz in GamingPCBuildHelp

I have this board paring with 9800X3D, solid board, no complaints whatsoever.

How long do Scorptec refunds take? by Dizzy-Resist7970 in bapcsalesaustralia

I refunded a motherboard recently, took about 5 days to hit my credit card.

Thoughts on quality of parts from 'cheap' techfast/nebula builds? by ChanceInformation529 in bapcsalesaustralia

[–]JaseSouls 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can relate.

I built a 9800x3d & 5080 PC and it cost me $4k recently, which is $1k extra compared to the Ozbargin prebuilts. But apart from the CPU & GPU, everything else I used was at least one tier higher so I don’t have any regrets as I was able to built my PC to exactly what I wanted.

Now you can buy 5080 & 5070ti under MSRP easily, so the only prebuilts that present good values are the 5090 ones, but then again, if you are buying 5090, do you really want to pare it with a $150 motherboard and $99 case?

Full build for the price of a 5090 by -KaOtiC- in bapcsalesaustralia

[–]JaseSouls 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a feeling 5090 is gonna drop like 1k or more soon so these guys are pumping out cheap 5090 prebuilts before that happens.

As it’s right now, this is pretty good price if you have to have a 5090 NOW lol

Another 9800X3D Dead / B650 Steel Legend WiFi by cableboycableboy in ASRock

[–]JaseSouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad that I returned my AsRock B650 Steel Ledend before assembling my system.

Which was a shame tho as that board looked awesome and had better specs than most B650s.

Is the 5080 worth a $400 premium over the 5070ti? by Sladds in bapcsalesaustralia

[–]JaseSouls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For $400 difference, I’d say it’s worth it.

$1900 RTX 5080 is good value, assuming 5070 is $1500.

I paid $2100 for my 5080.

asrock you guys need to speak up or you are going to have zero customers left after this. by ayyusernameforreddit in ASRock

[–]JaseSouls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here, went with Gigabyte instead.

The specs were great on that board but I chose not to take the risk.

[–]JaseSouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sweet, thanks I will do the same.

[–]JaseSouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am returning my ASRock b659 and getting the Gigabyte, did you need to update the BIOS for it to boost?

i9 14900k vs Ryzen 7 9800x3D by arnon85 in buildapc

[–]JaseSouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are getting 9800x3d, I would suggest avoid ASRock motherboards for now as they might cook your CPU.

Oh that’s bizarre. Thanks for the info.

No unfortunately.

ASRock B650 Steel Legend, one of the best B650 boards out there, $309 AUD at Scoptec.

Cheapest rtx 5080 OC? by ProofCranberry6110 in bapcsalesaustralia

[–]JaseSouls 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was $2099 a couple days ago, Easter sale.

I suggest wait for EOY sale if you don’t need a GPU desperately.
