    Yes, I upgraded from a 49 about a year back. It's a mixed bag tbh, the anti-glare screen you get can be hit and miss in terms of quality and how much the pattern affects the image, mine's about middling from what I've read to compare online. Other than that visual quality is excellent, even HDR which sucked on the older 49" models (I had 2 previously). Text is crystal clear. For gaming the way it fills your field of view is glorious but for work even with the 1000R curve it's a little too wide, I do like the extra height vs. the 49" but now have to strain a little to see the edges….first world problems :). I think my next will be back to a 49" / 1000R if they bring out an OLED with those specs and ideally at the same 7680x2160 res.

    PSA: Amazon Ireland is working on Hagglezon now. Also, for popular parts it's definitely worth checking.

    Guys how much would one get for a MSI GeForce RTX 4090 Suprim X bought in 2022 ?

    (never overclocked)

    CEX price check:

    Buy: €1,900.00 w/5 years warranty

    Sell: €1,368.00 Trade-in for Voucher / €1,178.00 Trade-in for Cash

    So 1400-1650 is a decent ballpark price.
    If you're willing to brave eBay, you might sell for closer to 1900.

    If I'm selling anything that cex have I advertise just under the amount they sell for and expect to get the midpoint between what they'll pay you for it and what they sell it for. A handy rule of thumb. You get a bit more than going direct to cex, the buyer pays a bit less without cex's warranty though.

    My 7800X3D from amazon.ie just arrived…

    Got on the phone to them to send out a replacement (CPU 😁).

    I keep wistfully looking at 7800X3D but it seems more prudent to wait for Zen 6 (especially now it's confirmed to be coming to AM5).



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 575 ✭✭✭Coyler


    Still on AM4 and very happy with it. 5700X3D will do me and the 5700x and 5600x in the other machines are rattling on just fine.

    Since I moved to AMD I have had a 3700X→5800X→7800X3D and the current 9800X3D. I bought them all on release. I will most likely get one of the Zen 6 chips on release as well.
