    I had a similar issue a few years back, 3 or 4 I think, someone bought a bunch of NBA points on my account, like $700 dollars worth. I dont even own that game. Long story short I disputed the charges and got my money back than fought with sony for the better part of 2 weeks before they agreed to reinstate my account. They wanted me to pay for the $700 in NBA points before they would reinstate it. took a long time to get through someones head that I have no intentions of paying for things I never bought in the first place and had no use for. About 3 months later I sold my Playstation and have refused to give them money ever since. WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH on any level.

    Post codes?

    So they cant keep up with current production on 4 cards, so they think the next logical thing is to double the product stack? This makes little sense to me but Ill be interested to see where they all land price wise.

    There is no way you are smart enough to work a computer and not understand the difference here. Its not a logic loop, its common sense. And yes my reasons for looking down on someone in this case are 100% more valid than someone looking down on someone solely because they choose a different way to play video games. If you dont understand the difference than thats on you

    Im in Edmonton and did an order on the weekend and it says it shipped from Vancouver I believe. Apparently shipped on Sunday and is expected on Thursday which leads me to believe it originated in Canada. Back to the OP, no there is no separate Canada site, you just buy through the main store and do the $$ conversion yourself

    If you shit on someone just because they play on a console your a piece of garbage and need to re-evaluate your life choices. People need to be better

    Honestly in Canada im gonna guess we are looking at May or June before you are gonna be able to find everything in stock and not jacked up

    Bought a GPU and CPU shirt as well as a stealth water bottle and beanie, first order from LTTstore.com, I guess ill see how nice the shirts are when they show up and see if I need to order more or not lol

    The thin part of any kinda charging port is gonna be the weak point of the design. Apple smartly put that on the cable which can be replaced cheaply. USB C puts that fragile part in the device, making the cable robust but making the weak point in the most expensive part of the system, dumb dumb move
  10. Ravendarat
    I agree. Ive had lightning cables break but never a lighting port on any device I have owned, and I have had a lot off apple. Almost every type c port on phones ive had has needed to be repaired within the first 6 months of ownership.

    I think thats his prototype hes been testing. They talked about on WAN show a little while ago about a new product coming that he was planning on spending a TON of money on promoting and we all were speculating that it was that screwdriver

    I would wait on it, I know people love the new and shiny, god knows I do, but until you see the real world numbers you shouldnt get married to that idea, hell you dont technically know if that PSU will be enough until you see the numbers (I cant imagine it wouldnt be but you see where Im coming from). At the end of the day waiting for reviews is always smarter, however as you said if you buy one and decide the card isnt for you then it should be easy to move unless its a total dud

    It stops more than you might think, did a good job for me and I live in a basement suite with dog

    Try flipping the top two fans to intake as well as the front two and just have the rear as exhaust maybe. In my experiences, which arent extensive, ive always gotten better temps that way. My current define R6 has 3 front 120LL and 3 top 140mm fans as intake and just a single 120mm LL fan as a rear exhaust and its very acceptable temps

    2 years ago I built a pc using a define R6, then I left it for a thermal take p5 when I did a full open loop because that made it easier and I liked the look of the case, then I downsized and went back to air and used a Meshify C, now as I prepare to go back to a custom loop I found myself looking at all sorts of cases, even thought about the new Thermaltake P8 but ended up going back to my old friend Define R6 although this time I got the version with the type c USB on the front panel. This is still just a temp version with a Ryzen 3600 and a 2060 ko but in the new year when stock is easier to come by I’m going with I think a 5800x and then a 6800xt IF the reviews live up to the hype, if not then I’ll go 3080, either way it will all be back on an open loop with Hydro X products.
  16. Ravendarat
    Right now you can buy a 3900x for roughly the same price as what the 5800x sells for when they are back in stock. Am I missing something or wouldnt the 3900x be the better deal for an everyday user?
  17. Ravendarat
    Ya with what your job is I understand wanting something like a 3900 then, that makes sense
  18. Ravendarat
    There are some great deals out there on 3900x right now, if you wanna get up and running right now I would probably go that route if you can. If you plan on selling it once the 5950x is avalible you could check the used market and see if someone upgrade to a 5000 and is selling a 3000 series cheap. Also I dont know what your daily work flow is but if its gonna be a temp processor you could always get something cheap like a 3600 for now knowing its only gonna be for a couple months, it will be far easier to sell when you are done with it compared to a higher priced chip

    Case is fine, and once again, no one knows what the new cards are actually gonna draw in the real world so anyone that says they know is just guessing. It also kinda depends on how much you are overclocking.
  20. Ravendarat
    Hard for any of us to say for sure until we actually see real world reviews on the new AMD cards, but im thinking hes right and you need a bigger PSU
  21. Ravendarat
    Kinda hard to know for sure if its gonna work well since you are asking about a gpu no one has put hands on yet. As for the mobo I believe all 5 series chipsets are going to support ryzen 5000 out of the box unless I missed something. IF I had to guess though I would say its possible your PSU might be underpowered and I would just look for a mobo with wifi built in as opposed to using a separate wifi card, is there not a board around the 210-220 mark that has wi-fi?

    My problem with the Dell sale was after REFUSING warranty several times THEY STILL GOT CHARGED for it. Like that borders on illegal I would thing. Customer refusing a service and you just charge them for it anyways? And in the follow up service call they wanted them to send the PC in to depot even though I believe that one of the things they were charged for was a onsite service warranty.

    I was gonna order one of the foil pin shirts but at the end of the day I couldnt do it. I live in Edmonton, so one province over from LTT, and one shirt shipped to my door was gonna be $56 CAD, I just cant bring myself to shell out that much for a single t-shirt. Im not blaming LTT or anything, just saying that there is no way I can justify that.

    I was literally just looking at those anti-off fittings tonight from Bykski, im interested in hearing if anyone has experience with them as well

    Ive almost pulled the trigger on this case before but what stopped me was the tremendous amount of gear needed to fill it up and not make it look like a bunch of empty space. To be worth while you are looking at a pair of 480-560mm rads, a pair of pumps/res to do a dual loop system, an impressive looking motherboard and graphics card and a lot of time and care in planning and building the loops. I still think about it but in reality just for the case and water cooling equipment needed to make it worth while would be like 2500-3000 CAD so in USD thats like 1900-2300 and thats all without buying a single component
