well in India thats the cheapest they offer we have to pay like 1.5x of normal rates due to customs duty etc
this is how we hae to pay here in India
did I hear that right 5tb of RAM?
Great specs!
I guess he tried to say STORAGE
Hahaha
yup that might be it
I own a R7 5700x running on ROG B550-F with 32GB DDR4 3200MT, RTX 3060TI, 750W-V2L, AX200 WiFi+BT along with 1TB*2 NVME and 2TBx2 HDD
i believe it has nothing to do with customs(unless of course you are importing the said device from overseas), the pricing being on higher end is due to one plain reason and that is the 18% GST on sales on top of it the corporate tax the company has to file annually(roughly around 25%-35%). Now let's come to another aspect of importing apple products in india, apple products are usually imported with 18% GST along with 4% cess and 10% Social welfare charge and 10% basic duty thud making the cost 1.5x on the declared value, declared value is product cost + shipping cost.
lol 5tb ram would be awesome
sorry, mobile happens
my dream PC
RTX 3060 TI is a BEAST!
that it is, and ofcourse it's much more faster in 3d rendering compared to my rx6600.
i think thats a similar price in the us here given its a mac. You can get a much beefier pc for the amount is all
Thats why i have never been able to go mac, amongst other reasons!
Oh well, I thought it was because it was manufactured somewhere else so those charges added up didn't know about these well aa GST is the main factor that makes littrally everything costly in India
I just like hate that I know yaa tax is necessary and what not but really its on everything man
Well in case of laptop I still think mac is good in that aspect but I hate it for it non-upgradeable ram and storage wish they could change that but instead all the other companies are also shifting to soldered ram
Sorry guys. Had to leave suddenly. What's the new topic of discussion?
Don't know about those guys, but I'm playing "he said, she said".
Also making a giveaway thread: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/202037/giveaway-giveaways#latest
Yeah i wish all the other companies wouldn't follow suite but they have found customers don't care enough I guess.
I just fixed an old sony laptop the other day. Just bought a new battery. Popped the old one out and slid the new one in. No tools required. Those were the days..
yeah same with like the 2012 macbook pro like after the 2015 macbook pro non of them are upgradeable
So generous 😇 unfortunately I am at capacity as well for now 🙃
We were talking about my pc with 1tb of ram for a bit
Well you can also start a giveaway then, of your giveaway
Is this one of your crazy dreams again?
I won't let my dreams be dreams
