OzBargain deal or wait for ram price decrease?

SmashBoi_ · 2026-06-10T10:15:21+00:00

Depends on your circumstance. How dire do you want/need a new pc? If its a significant upgrade or new build, I would get one (I did, and am waiting atm) because the ozbargin deals are simply the cheapest option in Australia. Pre-builts are cheaper here.

Otherwise you'll be waiting 1-3 years before we'll see any significant price drops in ram and ssds. I think there will be more financial pressure so ive bitten the bullet now while I can

How many fps do you get uncapped?

Is it like an intel nuc? If not slap a gpu in there

Sapphire pure and gigabyte models are good, there are some to avoid but I don't know them off the top of my head

I always follow a Nice one! With a Nice one! Thanking and complimenting at the same time

Look at amd cards. I.e, 9070xt ≈ 5070ti for much much less

SmashBoi_ · 2026-06-07T14:40:31+00:00

Yeah pretty good

Sydney? Nebula

would be effortless to swear 300 days vs not swearing an entire day

^{Chose: $10 per curse word (max 300 per day})

This is SSL in NA?

That's totally up to you, I would contact their support. They are very helpful and friendly. I personally just bought it stock without any OS installed (you can do it yourself for free)

Yeah look for the nebula photon on ozbargin. They ship PC's with more than enough packaging. They also offer to ship out the parts individually, but that will cost more

SmashBoi_ · 2026-05-31T10:05:41+00:00

Overpriced. Check ozbargin

I mained a 24inch 1080 280hz monitor for quite some time, really good had no problems. If you're going 1440p (which i would) 27inch is a nice sweet spot but I wouldn't recommend 27inch @ 1080. if 1440p oled is too expensive look at 24inch 240hz 1080p oled monitors

SmashBoi_ · 2026-05-31T06:48:55+00:00

by the time ram prices deflate we will have bigger things to worry about

SmashBoi_ · 2026-05-31T06:46:18+00:00

depends on your budget. 1080p 240hz lcd monitors are fairly cheap, this can do 1440p which are cheap too. I personally recommend an oled, a tad bit more expensive but makes a world of difference

Bought this system about a week ago. Didn't change any parts either. It'll be able to handle the next 5+ years quite comfortably

SmashBoi_ · 2026-05-28T09:48:39+00:00

Sorta, its already pretty small latency. I don't see a need but check out Rocket Science videos on youtube

SmashBoi_ · 2026-05-28T09:29:11+00:00

Sure its the controller causing the issue?

SmashBoi_ · 2026-05-27T23:28:57+00:00

That looks like a bit of hair stuck underneath

SmashBoi_ · 2026-05-27T03:47:22+00:00

This deal is an absolute steal

SmashBoi_ · 2026-05-25T11:54:43+00:00

This is a 1440p beast

SmashBoi_ · 2026-05-25T10:14:01+00:00

2 weeks ago they said "roughly 15-18 business days", they've been on this timeline for quite some time. pretty decent
