April 2020 Loots ( Ordered back in March) [COVID19 PRICEHIKE]

March 2020- April 2020 Update


This maybe kinda late, but due to working life, I have not had the time to order things and showcase everything to the peeps here. However, I have received the order listings on 31st of March 2020 and I'll be sharing my deal hunt findings and Order Listings with y'all.

First of all, these are the deals that i have gotten on the 31st of March, shown in the photo below.

The first deal was a Ryzen 7 2700 (New), on the extreme right side of the photo. I got it from a friend at a decent price of 230 SGD. (Do note that i treat SGD:AUD as roughly 1:1)

Next was the pair of G.Skill Trident Z (Red/White) (8GB x4). As they were used, I decided to negotiate with the buyer from his asking price of 200. I ended up buying them at 180 SGD as he wanted to deal on the same day. The price to performance is a steal.

Last of all the deals was the GPU, which was a new Zotac GTX 1070 8GB Twin Fan edition. This GPU came with a backplate and its new RMA-ed few days ago by the previous owner. Initially he wanted to sell me a used and dirty Zotac GTX 1070 8GB Twin fan, but i rejected it and he decided to sell me this New GPU which was listed at 260 SGD. I negotiated and ended up buying it from him at 240 SGD which was quite a decent price, compared to the rest of the prices on the market.


Next after the deals, here comes the orders, shown below.



As shown in the photo , from left to right ( Top to Bottom) I ordered the following:
A Pair Of Tecware Forge ATX Cases (99 SGD per pc; 99 SGD from shops)
A Pair Of FSP Hyper K 500W (65 SGD per pc; similar price from shops)
A Pair Of FSP Hyper K 600W (74 SGD per pc; similar price from shops)
4 Pieces of Lexar NS100 (62 SGD per pc; 65 SGD from shops)
A Pair Of Toshiba 1TB 7200rpm (57 SGD per pc; similar price from shops)
A Pair Of ID Cooling RGB Fans (3ARGB Fan pack; 55 SGD from shops)

These parts are meant for a new and upcoming build which will be updated on the blog in a day or two. The prices were hiked due to COVID19 outbreak, so I couldn't find ways to reduce the prices.

Take care and hope that everyone stays safe while the virus is still out and running.
