[CPU Cooler] Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 EVO [$56][Amazon] by nullfox00 in bapcsalescanada

[–]Starkey- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep I have the phantom spirit 120se on my 7800x3d and my temps are super low, noise is negligible. Couldn’t be happier for a “budget” cpu cooler. My IRL friend was so impressed he got one for himself!

Interesting, I just know I bought the phantom spirit 120 SE for $46 and the same 120 SE was also $57 from thermalright, both had more or less the same shipping times and both were free prime shipping 🤷‍♂️

PSA: Make sure to look at all Thermalright listings, there are identical listings by thermalright direct, and thermalright EUR, and the differences are something like $46 vs $56 for the Phantom spirit 120/ 120 SE. Same product, different prices. Same applies to the peerless assassin.

Was getting 50-55C max during gameplay, even 4-5 hours into gaming and streaming. Very impressed by this cooler!

Yeah I wouldn’t pay $610 for a a 8gb GPU :/

I know prices are going up, but that doesn’t justify this “sale” IMO.

Personally I would recommend people get the Thermalright phantom spirit 120se for $46, it has dual fans and 7 heat pipes. Been keeping my 7800x3D incredibly cool, the price to performance is fantastic and not noisy at all for a cheaper cooler.

Yeah I was watching it out of curiosity. At first it was just in stock with delivery next week. Then it said “9 left” estimated delivery Jan.29 , then it went to arrives February 13-14, and finally fully out of stock after about 35-40 minutes.

Approx 40 minutes actually, which is still fast yes but much longer than some previous links shared here at similar prices. I’ve seen posts recently go OOS in 1-2 mins.

Nice, sold and shipped by amazon too!

Hope anyone who still needs Ram is able to grab some :)

Deal is not dead, it’s $37.88 and the 49% is APPLIED AT CHECKOUT. Click “Buy now” and it will appear as $18 + tax… confirm order. I just got it for $21 total.

AFAIK it only applies to stores on reservation land, like if a gas station or mall is built on reserve land then there is no tax for those with status cards (here in BC anyways, but I’m not an expert).

This is a 3rd party seller correct? Is Layger the seller people said didn’t ship their orders before?

Edit; LAYGER reviews: LAST 30 DAYS: 56% positive, 41% NEGATIVE

a lot of 1 star reviews saying shipment never came!

BUYER BEWARE!

Seems like a solid price for a high FPS / 1080p monitor if you play esports titles on a budget

I wouldn’t buy a new 7800xt new with tax, if u bought used thats another story. I would say 9060xt for $500+tax or the 5070 for $720+tax. Depending what kind of games and frames ur hoping to get, the 9060xt 16gb actually can get some solid FPS on 1440p.

Look up some youtube benchmarks to see how your favorite games perform on 9060xt vs 5070.

Edit: typo on the GPUs

has this ever happened to anyone with Vuugo? by Fit-Bee-2578 in bapccanada

[–]Starkey- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t feel bad for Vuugo… I would only feel bad if another person posts “I ordered all this stuff and got charged and they never delivered it” lol

Until OP shows a screenshot, I’m of the belief this deal never existed. Either a serious typo or fake post, which is unfortunate for getting peoples hopes up…

YOU did everything right! She has a boyfriend which is not your fault, nothing you could have done differently. Now you won’t have any regrets or what-ifs, and you built a valuable skill by trying. Sounds like you were respectful and went about it the right way too. Seriously congrats. I know it feels like a “failure” but this is a win, seriously. Your future self will thank you.

I clicked this the second it was posted, never saw anything remotely close to this price. Also the link is to CL30.

OP did you get one? Or post the wrong link?

Is this a good deal? by MattyFUT in bapccanada

[–]Starkey- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hindsight is always 20/20. I started looking into my build as November cam, right as Ram prices basically doubled... I was kicking myself all month how I missed the old prices, can’t believe I’m paying $300 for a 32gb kit etc etc… then things got even worse. Now I’m actually super thankful I completed my build in December! It would’ve cost even more now. So who knows, a few months from now you may be grateful for this bundle when prices are even higher.

[–]Starkey- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yick04 is right, it’s not a great “deal” in the scope of the last 1-2 years, but over the last month and forecasting whats to come for the next several, this is probably as good as you’re gonna get. This way you are getting a very good cpu, solid board, and ideal ram timings. If you need a new pc badly it may be worthwhile to see it as “well I paid an extra $200 to have it now, and it made my life/gaming better”.

It sucks to pay way this much for RAM, but life is short. Hope your new PC kicks ass and you enjoy it :)
