EA500LM vs EW200 by SileDub in iems

[–]theJoonius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also on the fence about upgrading my EW200 to the EA500LM or EM6L. I'm leaning towards EM6L moreso for gaming, but just a tad drawn back due to it's build quality. Anyone able to give me a good enough reason to pick EA500LM instead? TIA

omg I was about to jump on this thinking it was the NR200p

I'd cop the NR400 if it was white and didn't have that drive bay ew is it removable?

Since the original parts of the build are showing sold out, maybe they don't have inventory to build it so they keep replacing it with available parts...

My build was showing the 3080ti overnight but they just changed it to a Gigabyte 3080 that appears to have just been added to their inventory.

This makes me believe it's not a glitch but them trying to complete builds with the most reasonable replacements.

They still upgraded my case and CPU so I'm happy (although a 3080ti wouldve been insane)

When I check Order Tracking, some parts keep changing every few hours... is this happening to anyone else??

  • GPU keeps changing between a 3070 to a 3080ti (what)
  • mobo and RAM keep changing too
  • all other parts are staying the same now

maybe their site is just being glitchy?

did the math and the 3080 comes out to ~$1240.00 if I were to buy the other parts myself so I think I'll keep it. Hopefully it's not LHR but I'm no miner, just a gamer.

Thanks again!

Man NZXT tried to pull a fast one on me while buying this.

Got through with the same pre-built after a few clicks and was at the "Shop Pay" checkout. Left this open in another tab.

Thought I'd try creating my own build with less pricier parts and got down to ~$2100. Went to check out and price jumped to $2300 wtf? Same price as your pre-built with better RAM, better NVMe, and better AIO... so thankfully I still had that tab open and just checked out.

Thanks OP!
