fuck Nintendo they’re almost as bad as apple

Play Asia’s BF sale is now live

https://www.play-asia.com/info/BLACKFRIDAYsale2019?tagid=16202

Fred Meyers Black Friday ad has been leaked.

I also talked to a bunch of the electronics associates at my work/Walmart. They said that the BF ad usually shows up in our app about a week out from Black Friday. We get fliers a few days later. But they usually get leaked before that.

Regarldess, I’ll keep an eye out.

Cheap ass gamer made a spread sheet of the locations and prices for all the games, consoles and bundles that are (so far) going to be on sale during BF.

Walmart just posted their BF sale.

Honestly kinda ho-hum about it. Target and Best Buy have a wider variety of games on sale and better prices for the ones Walmart shares with them.

I’ll get the ones they’re the same prices out of convenience but I’ll go every else for the rest.

My SSD for my PC just went goodbye yesterday. Not sure if I want to wait that long for a deal though.

Do you have a M.2 slot on your motherboard? Can get $20 off this NVMe drive with coupons

I sure enough do. At the time I built this unit it was costly.

Anyone have any experience with the M2 based SSD vs SATA?

This video explains it well

I use both on my system. I use an M2 as my boot drive and SATA SSD as a game drive. My PC boots in 10 seconds thanks to NVMe. I can’t live without it.

Thanks. I immediately figured that M2 would be better than a cable, but you never know.

It should be as long as you buy the right M2. SATA M2s are no different from a standard SSD. All you are paying for would be the form factor. Look out for NVMe, that’s the good shit.

a couple of things I’m definitely interested in for the Newegg ad.

Only one 2TB SSD is on sale on Newegg. How good are HP drives?

No clue tbh. The few things I’m eyeing are the ADATA 512gb NVME drive (and giving my wife my current 480gb NVME SSD), the Asrock motherboards for AMD (the Phantom Gaming 4 is my current front runner), and maybe the G.Skill kit of 32gb of RAM. Depends on how much I have saved when the sale rolls around.

If I did all my maths right it’ll be about $440 to get everything I want on Black Friday. Almost all of it is from Best Buy.

The only thing that I’ll likely get from work is the purple DS4 controller since all dual shocks will be on sale for $40 at most retailers might as well get it at the one that’s closest to me
