I've been noticing that Since AMD won with Ryzen all over the world and succeeded with Polaris, vega and Navi... Same doesn't seems to happen in Pakistan. In Pakistan most online stores are still advertising Intel and Nvidia on the front.. While AMD giving alternatives to make cheapest gaming pc under 200$ or 300$ for the rest of the world. Amd is still not better option in Pakistan when there isn't much difference in price. Also Every Pakistani computer online store has different prices for same thing, which makes it hard to us that which ones deal is better and at reasonable price. Is it possible to make gaming pc in very tight budget that isn't aged and is also power efficient?

AMD hardware is actually quite cheap here; compared to Intel's.

You can find a brand new B450M mobo for like 12k at local shops. Pair it up with a Ryzen 5 2600, currently going for 16k on AliExpress. About 6k for 8 Gigs of DDR4 RAM @ 2.8GHz.


Then just drop something like a used RX480 (14k locally) and you've yourself a VERY decent machine with a 'bright' upgrade path.

Non-registered parcels can get lost, but registered ones almost always reach the recipient.

Here's the tracking information of a Pentium G860 CPU I ordered not too long ago via "AliExpress Standard Shipping":

    Nope. They have a very valid case. The above video explains it all.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.
