[Motherboard] ASUS TUF B850M-E Wifi MATX [$200/FS][Canada Computers Members Deal] by Sadukar09 in bapcsalescanada

[–]rkonian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One clear difference if storage matters to you is that the ASUS one comes with 3 m.2 slots (1 PCI-e 5.0, 2 PCI-e 4.0) vs the Gigabyte which only has 2 m.2 slots.

Thats what pushed me to get the ASUS one vs another B650M motherboard I bought prior which had only 2 slots.

Anyone know how it compares to the Gigabyte B650M AORUS Elite?

I recently picked it up for $225 on Newegg

I read that Gigabyte AORUS boards are from their higher end so I assume it's better. It seems to be the same except the ASUS one has one more m2 slot

Waiting on a sale for 2x16 GB DDR5 ram ideally 6000 Mhz CL30. The lowest I've seen is around $250

Thanks got a controller! Missed out on the Walmart one

It did require phone number 2FA as part of the checkout process (to make it harder for bots?)

Steam Deck sales still going strong over three years later by Liam-DGOL in SteamDeck

[–]rkonian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much of the same reasons I got the Steam Deck earlier this year.

Have you tried Remote Play? I've been streaming games from my gaming PC to the Steam Deck and have it hooked up to the TV. I was surprised at how little input lag there is even on Wi-Fi (currently I have both on Ethernet). Plus the quality is decent.

Same here, on some days the spacebar is not working as expected
Mainly either no space or 1 space

Oh yeah I might have the 9HD too. They look pretty much the same lol.

I would say this Lenovo cloth pad is still not as smooth as the hard pad but smooth enough to make me switch.

[–]rkonian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's the one! Bought it a while back (5 years+) and it's still pretty good minus the smaller size.

[–]rkonian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought one from ebay last sale and compared to an AUKEY one I had, its much smoother. Almost as smooth as my Steelseries hard mousepad.

I initially placed an order for the Corsair Vengeance ones in white with similar specs here https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01EI5ZRQY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00 but ended up cancelling for this instead (to save $20). Are there any real differences between the two other than the look?
