Newbies - Building OverKill Streaming, Gaming PC, & Mining

Next bet is launch of RTX 3070 TI on June 10th

Stand in line
Apply a 2 - 3 day sick leave or any leave from work. Pack your camping gear and plenty of energy drink, to prepare for worst 12 - 24 hour stand in line at the Micro Centre. What is worth it? after the worst 12 - 24 hour stand in line, you'll get the thing which is more affordable compared to options in Ebay.

Online
I don't know how the scalp bot tech works; but because it responds very quickly, you have to be one step ahead of them. Be on the stand by to press that add cart and buy button instantaneously. It is going to be an online war zone.

I would rather stand in line then online. Good luck~~

just get back. when i get there they already camp and missed the chance
what do you think if i just re selll everything i got and get pre build ?
it seems to much waiting for GPU this day. its going to be like for a while until AMD and NVIDIA figured it out how to seperate those 2 type mining and gaming type of GPU

Well there is that advantages and disadvantages of pre built systems
Advantage is you will be getting a system with a GPU.
Disadvantage is you might be paying more for a system which does not have the components you want.

In stores, pre-built system is not that great. Because they addin all non-popular components and sell it at ridiculous prices. Pretty much stores themselves play the part of being scalpers.

If you resell your current pc components, there is no guarantee you can get back the money you spent on them.

I have few pals in America, even they got tired of the situation. They decided to just buy from scalpers. One of the Vanguard even decided to just go for it for $2770 USD (Including shipping fee and tax fee).

I am not your financial advisor, and I don't want to support scalpers. Sometimes you just have to break your boundaries to get the very thing you want.

If it helps to make you feel any better to purchase from Ebay scalpers in America, here in NZ our RTX 3080 TI retail price is $2300.78 USD. Even we are paying 2 times more compared to US retailers.

GTX 1080 TI and RTX 2080 TI are still great gpus. Cheaper alternatives~~~

I have noticed some ebay sellers that do not do international delivery, you might be able to purchase the gpu for few hundred dollars less.

Well you already have a Blade don't you? Maybe you can try sell your old Blade and get this one~~

Or just press that big buy now button in ebay, and say it was a "destined buy"

Gosh with enough tutorials, I think I'm gonna plan my custom water cooling for sometime this year~~~

This video was great. It thought me to never do hardline tubing. I was actually considering it at one point.

they should make the silicone insert change colour due to heat and calibrated to tell you when its hot enough by the colour
