Nvidia Deals & Offers

Have a good night :)

Wanna take a bet on that cockwomble? Go back to posting rrp deals 8 deals and half if them are rrp for shield. You are the cockwomble cyclist who thinks they are special and cannot read the rules about not posting rrp deals. Gets all defensive when people point stuff out as well. Keep posting "deals" as you see them I'll happily add cooling to every single one that's rrp

Lol, you wouldn't utter a word of what you're saying on here in real life. This is probably your only outlet to feel tough. Have a good one (y)

No. Personally Rrp £200 would have been more than I wanted to pay but value is going to be based on use. if you’re using it as plex/media server etc and watch a tonne of films/tv then I can see the value of £200. I bought it as more of a games console for GeForce now and emulation box, £135 is about right For me.

Are you still posting (poo) deals which are rrp? Haven't you got some traffic laws to flout whilst cycling and thinking you are special? London cyclist says it all utter cockwomble

That deal is not going to rob me.

Dude delete post quick before there is no going back

Yeah might as well get something like this instead if you're getting a branded gaming desktop: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MSI-Infinite-9SI-834UK-Intel-Core-i5-GTX-1660-Ti-Gaming-PC-1-TB-HDD-256-GB-/113989724809?hash=item1a8a512a89

Is that not a bit pricey? I’ve put a GTX 1650 (£130) in a Dell optiplex for arcade emulation.

Temporarily out of stock at that point

Was it showing as in stock at this point @Scott_TurnerR6v ? Or was it showing as temporarily out of stock?

Nope

Has anyone else had their orders confirmed yet? (I haven't)

🙏🏽 Let’s hope

Just got an email from Currys giving me 6 months Spotify Premium as well, cheers OP :D

Yeah, all setup and working thanks.

Did yours arrive?

Well its not really, it is a different design of the same thing, just like any hardware refresh. Just like both amd and Intel have done many times. So it is new hardware design, so not 5 years old, but also not generational and not worth a premium. As noted though its totally fit for purpose as it ever was.

The short answer is Yes, it will. The problem is that Atmos can be encoded in either lossless (Dolby TrueHD) or lossy (Dolby Digital) format. The files you have must only contain a TrueHD Atmos audio stream. DD+ Atmos files will play via the internal app. The internal app and Plex on the TV support lossy DD Atmos but not TrueHD Atmos. LG have said they wont fix this as the only real use case is pirate content, and fixing it would require changes to the hardware. Full uncompressed audio with TrueHD Atmos needs to come from an external source.

Damn there were 3 on amazon at 11:45 last night... I dithered and 12:02 all gone! Got fire stick 4K and pi and love my emulation / 4K prime - hence hesitated but too late...

Supposed to be receiving one soon according to this from Scan

Why too much hype? The Nvidia Shield is awesome.

Too much hype

yep, sure as fate, despite the order status page still stating they will dispatch on wed 27th and deliver today got a mail at 23:35 to say will dispatch on 16th June. Given the feedback from others on this thread I'm going to cancel and get my money back (has indeed came off PayPal already). I'll close the deal as well - sorry folks saw this and it was linked directly from the Nvidia page so thought it was a good idea!

currys had stock this morning but now out of stock. Worth checking on them on the regular.

Aaand gone again

Amazon are taking orders again, in stock June 6th

after an anxious wait mine has shipped, thanks to the OP for highlighting this stock

You and your nits lol

Thanks man appreciate your help

For PC I use Moonlight, for PS4, I use a third party app called PSplay, I think it was £2.99, it is well supported in the XDA forums. Both apps will work with third party controllers I bought one of these from Amazon, works very well. https://www.amazon.co.uk/PG-9083-Wireless-Bluetooth-Controller-Smartphone/dp/B07B8PJFPJ/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=tablet+Bluetooth+controller&qid=1590353434&sr=8-6 But when streaming use 5GHz, 2.4ghz tends to mess with Bluetooth when streaming.

What app for ps4 and pc?

This stock is mythical. They simply don't exist. It's been this way with the 2 remaining items for almost 2 months. It's a glitch on the Amazon stock system. Try putting one in your basket and going to checkout. (annoyed) (confused) (skeptical)

I bought the Samsung 43inch a couple of years ago for 4k gaming, I had a 28 inch monitor before that, the TV I bought had good opinions from the Overclockers UK forum, for less than £250 at the time of purchase, due to a ebay site wide discount code, it gave a lot of benefits over a monitor, price, size, resolution and HDR..

Code expired

The code says expired does anyone get the same

Hi, it says that it has an Anti-glare LED Backlight Non-touch Narrow Border WVA Display. Does anyone know if it is an ips display and how colour accurate it is? I am looking the to use the laptop some photo editing, so a more colour accurate screen will be preferred. Thanks!

Seems v good, Was going to press the button, until I got to the end of this review...... https://laptopmedia.com/review/dell-inspiron-14-5490-review-two-workdays-on-a-single-battery-charge/ not sure if the new Inspiron models have a design flaw, a ticking time bomb for a dead screen in the future, out of warranty coverage. It seems the cooling fans exhaust up through the the back, and the screen absorbs a lot of the energy. The infra red shot in the review shows a localised heat concentration on the screen, and getting up 50C. Someone posted a question about the heat having long term damage potential, but I suspect it’s too early to know. v v annoying, been researching these for ages, and thought this was ticking all the boxes for a non gaming v capable laptop. Would be interested to know if anyone else knows about the screen heat issue.

I just don’t get the rational of soldering 4gb of RAM on to the motherboard (confused)

Lol, hope you get yours soon, not opening the new one, it's practically the same as the old one, had my bloody beer goggles on, saw the word Pro, lol..

Happy for you. I am Still waiting for the tracking info..

Strange, mine came from Digital River, based in Shannon. !

Ok, no luck so far for me. Its still in processing and I am in NI. It may take another couple of days for the delivery

Oddly enough, this morning!!

Looks like these DO ship from Germany. I ordered Air Pod Pros last week via Amazon.de and those actually shipped from within the UK. Expected delivery is Thursday this coming week, so effectively a 7 day delivery time frame to the UK.

This just dropped even further to EUR 420,76. Re-ordered for £376.32! (highfive)

That's good to know, though I'd imagine it would be a bit pricey to send back a large item like this.

I did a test on an order I made from amazon.de and it states that Amazon will refund upto €7.99 (or something like that) for postage

I'm not sure to be honest, perhaps it may be possible to return an item for free but I'd look into it.

great deal but gave up in the end...my basket shows nowhere to put promotiomal code, unlike what is shown above....

No, still pretty shocking

What are the batteries like these days - they used to be rubbish on these? Have they stopped sticking in a small battery?

Well it depends on your budget I suppose. The XPS are towards the higher end of dell's make. They are very well built though. But very pricy if you want this spec.

Cheers mate. Added that to the OP to bring the price down to 738.64. Very decent spec for the price in my opinion but hey let's wait and see. Iam sure there would be someone complaining. (lol) (lol)

There are better PCs around the price that'll have atleast a 1650 super in it. Would be easier if you stated with 2/3 titles you're talking about too

For the GPU

Can still use code NUSBIGSALE

I work at a computer retailer. Shame I didn't see this sooner, but everyone should avoid these like the plague. There seems to be some fundamental problem with the 5000 series mainboards, as they seem to kill their otherwise healthy storage drives and LCD backlights very quickly. It is an issue that seems to have persisted since the 8th gen Intel models were released.

Those are not the new AMD 2020 Ryzen 4000 series, you’re listing older 3000 series.

This is up to 1,199 now.

Apologies if it didn’t come across in the post - I had the 2018 version, Core i5 8th Gen, no discrete GPU. Fan noise was acceptable - largely silent during normal daily tasks (web browsing, emails, YouTube, Netflix etc) only really spinning up during light gaming (I mainly used emulators on mine). The fans weren’t overly loud when spinning full speed, were a little high pitched and whiny though.

Do you have a discrete gpu on yours? Hows the fan noise? Heard its a big complaint

Panel appears to be the same one as in the 2018 version - its a good display. Its 3:2 like the Surface devices, which is great for browsing the web. 300 nits max brightness is merely okay - its not terrible, but you will find yourself using it at max brightness more than you think you would. Additionally, contrast ratio of 1000:1 is the same as the previous model - I found blacks on mine to be slightly more grey than I would have liked, but they weren't awful. Having said all that, I found the colours on mine looked excellent and the taller display was very useful for web browsing.

Well last 4 days it's AMD 8 - 10 Intel. :{
