Hump days brings a bit of a slow down of deals as far as I can see this morning. Mainly because I have covered all the good ones now. A few good graphics card deals are out though which will be perfect for people wanting a decent budget build.
Amazon
PowerColor Radeon 8GB RX 580 RED Dragon V2 – £178.79
Around a £20 drop in price from the already low price. The cryptomining boom is thankfully over and we are seeing some reasonably priced components. While Nvidia maybe the more popular brand I would argue that AMD is better for budget builds as you can then make use oy FreeSync displays.
Nest Third Generation Learning Thermostat – £169.99
Not as cheap as the Hive option, but Nest is better reviewed and arguably has better functionality and a wider range of compatibility with other smart systems
Ballistix Sport 16GB Kit (8GB x 2) 2400MT/s DDR4 RAM – £88.99
Almost half the price it was compared to January, DDR4 is finally affordable again. Sadly it is not quite as cheap as 2016 levels, this used to sell for £57!!
HyperX FURY Black 16GB 2666MHz DDR4 DIMM Memory Kit
£10 more than the previous option but running a little faster, this could be a better buy for AMD Ryzen builds
Other Retailers
MSI GeForce GTX 1060 6GB GDDR5 OC V1 Graphics Card – £ 199.96
Offering similar performance to the RX580 this will run cooler and quieter so may be preferable and it still represents a great deal
Apple Watch Nike+ Series 3 (GPS + Cellular) 42mm – £240.08
I got the buy now pay later Very deal the other day, not sure if I should return and get this instead. For an extra tenner, you are getting the GPS + Cellular version.
