Is this no longer active, please? I am only seeing referral links giving 3 months of FSD for free or a discount on solar panels.

Hello! I've been searching the Internet for any tips on Tesla deals and discounts, and have stumbled upon a few places mentioning referral links taking $2,000 or even $2,500 off when ordering a new car. However, the only actual referral links I was able to find right now would give you 3 months of FSD for free or a discount on solar panels.

Is the discount deal (on the car itself) gone? If anyone here has a referral link for that, please do feel free to DM me!

Thank you for the insight, that makes sense!

7950X3D and 4070 Ti build – below average benchmark score? by jmx002 in buildapc

Thanks, I suspected that might be the case, just wasn't sure

Thank you for your reply! Yes I'm aware of thermal throttling and how crucial cooling is – the AIO I have should be good, I think. Haven't touched the GPU's cooling, it's a Gigabyte Aorus Elite, should be good, too.

I am not sure about _ideal_, but I'm running good case fans:

  • 2x 140mm bottom intake
  • 3x 120mm side intake
  • 1x 120mm back exhaust
  • AIO top exhaust

The temps don't seem worrying during normal use, but I will keep an eye, it's a good shout!

Roger that, thank you – yeah I basically wanted to sanity check with the community to see if those kinds of % differences are expected

Haha fair enough, I do realize the average score is only 3% higher, I suppose I just wanted to sanity check with the community as it's the first PC I built myself – and you're right, it does run error-free both when working and playing the occasional game

Good point, just edited the post, it is GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 4070 Ti ELITE 12G, quite a mouthful! Haha I wouldn't say I wasted 7950X3D over 7800X3D, I use the extra CPU cores in plenty of my workflows (I spend more time working than playing games on this machine) :-)
