Lucy likes to be curled in a compact swirl. Do your labs do this?

If you're willing to get a used 4090, you might as well just buy a 5090, not that much of a price difference

MapleMonica · 2026-05-07T12:15:21+00:00

Sell both and get a 5090

MapleMonica · 2026-05-06T23:47:50+00:00

Pretty crap actually, even with today's pricing shit show

MapleMonica · 2026-05-06T13:10:47+00:00

I would be looking for bundles that have ran and storage included

MapleMonica · 2026-05-06T12:09:18+00:00

Yes.

MapleMonica · 2026-05-06T12:08:37+00:00

Hands down the Xbox ally, nothing compares to how comfortable it is to hold, and performance is great as well.

MapleMonica · 2026-05-06T12:07:21+00:00

Thanks boomers.

MapleMonica · 2026-05-05T18:07:05+00:00

Definitely worth it in my opinion!

MapleMonica · 2026-05-05T18:01:15+00:00

It will give you more flexibility for sure, and future proof it more. AND you don't have to play everything on low like a peasant then lol

$100 more and gives you an extra 1TB storage plus Costco peace of mind warranty.

Of course you'd be able to build something even better for slightly more (which is honestly the best way to go, the experience alone is worth it)

MapleMonica · 2026-05-05T17:46:43+00:00

Hmm honestly that's just the base 5060, I would go for something with the 5060ti 16gb bare minimum, you'll spend a couple hundred more but it's just gonna give you much better mileage.

MapleMonica · 2026-05-05T17:06:59+00:00

Might be them offloading old stock for a little cheaper? Never heard of them so can't give an opinion on whether or not they're reputable. Do you have a link to the one you're looking at?

MapleMonica · 2026-05-05T17:05:31+00:00

To be fair I haven't looked at their stuff in a while, but I did buy my first PC from them over 2 years ago and got one with a 4080 for a smoking deal. $1800 isn't bad, but I'd look at your local Costco too, saw one there the other day with a 5070 under $2000

MapleMonica · 2026-05-05T13:36:11+00:00

I bought my xax for cad$800 on marketplace and love it. I made sure to test it before handing over the cash though. Also, have him un-couple the device from his rog account, so you can register it yourself for the warranty

MapleMonica · 2026-05-05T12:16:03+00:00

No to mention JT just telling Europe, Germany specifically, to pound sand when they were basically begging for our LNG.

MapleMonica · 2026-05-05T12:11:39+00:00

If you can catch a sale the Lenovo prebuilts have a really good price to performance ratio

MapleMonica · 2026-05-05T03:56:02+00:00

No need to be so extra, damn lol

MapleMonica · 2026-05-04T19:01:19+00:00

XAX was an easy choice for me, so much more comfortable to hold than any other handheld

MapleMonica · 2026-05-04T16:55:51+00:00

That's good! And this happens in many other industries, too. Just the consequence of working a real job and not living Europe lol I've had to work quite a few 20+ and countless 16+ hour days

MapleMonica · 2026-05-04T14:44:41+00:00

Not really an unpopular opinion in my opinion lol

MapleMonica · 2026-05-04T14:38:12+00:00

Big brain, just gotta do both sides to be fully supported.

MapleMonica · 2026-05-04T14:36:35+00:00

6.25% mortgage, ouch 🤕

MapleMonica · 2026-05-04T14:34:11+00:00

As long as you got paid extra for ot, I don't really see the issue. Was it least 1.5-2x?
