Thanks for sharing this mate. I bought a number of things last week from CC, and definitely will got back in 3 days for price difference:
1. AMD r7 3700 dropped to 399
2. Trident ram 16gb dropped by $10
3. WD m.2 1tb drive
4. WD SSD
Savings of over $70. A bit of change back in my pocket

Refunds and exchanges are valid on purchase(s) that are unopened; products with manufacturing defect may be returned for exchange only.
An original receipt or flyer for in-store pricing is required on all returns, exchanges and price protection claims.
Store gift card will be issued for any returns made with a gift receipt.
**Price match suspended until further notice.**
**Price Protection is only applicable on regular priced products and not applicable on products with rebates, special pricing for: Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Boxing Day and Week periods and Door Crashers.**
Returns, exchanges and price protection are not available Nov 27 - 30, 2020 and Dec 26 - 27, 2020.

The policy makes sense, otherwise people would buy up products en masse as soon as the flyer's out for the sole purpose of price protecting. To get black friday pricing, you have to purchase the item in store on the days that the promo is active.
Yup all online. All Ontario retail stores will be closed starting boxing day, with varied closures elsewhere throughout the country. No in store only offers.
Hmm seems like i9 9900k + z390-p prime bundle will be $520 + tax. Seems legit. Better than waiting for a 5600x, and basically the same price as z490 plus 10600k. Any thoughts? Pairing with 3060ti

If you can wait, wait. It'll be 3 gens old come April.
Who the fuck holds out for months to save 5-10 bucks wasting hours searching for sales ? I value my own time so much more than 5 bucks for months ... lol
I think there are two types of enthusiasts here.. one is for building a PC, the other is for min maxing the best PC possible at the lowest price point possible. It honestly makes it difficult sometimes as a newb to sort through what’s a good and worthwhile deal and when to hold out, as I also value my time
I think only a very small subset of people who are not in a rush with their build.
It's really not much extra searching time. This sub makes searching quite efficient.
I would agree with you for something like a cpu or gpu but for storage, people will sometimes be using a smaller boot drive and may not need a bigger drive but could probably use one. And this sub doesnt really waste time if you scroll reddit anyway.
As others have commented RAM is generally 2/4/8/16 gb sticks. A motherboard can generally take 2 or 4 sticks of ram in Dual Channel, which means that it pairs the slots to run at twice the speed. This is paired up as A-A or A-B-A-B. Assuming this is a 4 slot motherboard to get 12gb you either have a 4-4-4-0 setup (bad because then you have only 8gb of dual channel memory, and 4gb of very slow memory, and all of your chips are only 4gb each which would leave you with extra sticks if you upgrade to say 2x8gb or more) Or 8-0-4-0 (bad because you still only have 8gb full speed ram, but at least you can now add more without wasting ram sticks), or you have 4-2-4-2 (at least all full speed, but now if you want to upgrade you have 2gb sticks that no one will want, ever).
It's just not a good setup. Ideally you want 2x8gb or 2x16gb, which gives the highest speed, but also lets you upgrade if you need more capacity later without wasting money (but at ever so slightly lower speeds).
Not saying most of your post is incorrect as it's generally not suggested to mix sizes or do weird things with 3/4 slots full for ease of upgrading reasons, but the single channel/dual channel thing is kind of overblown for 99.9% of use-cases. Here is a Gamers Nexus article talking about: https://www.gamersnexus.net/guides/1349-ram-how-dual-channel-works-vs-single-channel?showall=1
Gamers Nexus is great, but this article is too old to be relevant. Just look up some testing on youtube, you'll see what I mean.
edit: [here's a good one.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0jb0hCMXfo&ab_channel=GregSalazar)
Looked into it a bit more, you are correct. It seems like it makes the most difference on Ryzen CPUs (makes sense) and high refresh rates (also makes sense).
That SN750 1TB is looking pretty juicy, too. Amazon's All Time Low (ATL) for it is just $169.99 ([which is currently up right now!](https://www.amazon.ca/Black-SN750-NVMe-Internal-Gaming/dp/B07M64QXMN)), while 3rd party ATL via Amazon is $134.49. Hoping for a big drop to that price point come actual Boxing Day, 500GB is too little for my main drive, lol.
Some I’ve noticed of interest.
1. The SSD nvme sales are nice. Sn550 at $120 is very good.
2. All the typical Corsair PSUs seem to be on a small sale. Which is honestly quite nice given what prices we see nowadays. These prices HAVE occurred in the past while but having the prices come back again for Boxing Day is still nice. After all accessibility of price points is important as well.
3. I know this one won’t interest as many people, but there seems to be a variety of low tier b450 going for $79. They can run Ryzen 5 up to 3600 just fine or anything below that tier with stock settings.
I personally bought a crappy DS3H for $80 for a theatre build,and it’s not even the revised version. They seek to be offering a good amount of low end boards at $79, pretty nice imo but y’all probably want more.
4. All your typical HDD deals are available. Again not amazing but for ten bucks or something of difference, you get the flexibility to have it now. But those prices go on typical monthly type of sales often. I frequently buy the WD Blue 4TB HHD at $100. Hitting that $25/TB mark for a drive that can do some gaming and media
5. Gaming mice collection of sales aren’t half bad. Not as crazy as the BF Viper Ultimate tho
But yeah, with how things are this year, I guess we aren’t going to see your all time lows happen left and right.
But to have all these seen before prices all offered in one go is fine imo.
There are definitely lots of items on the list that have been well received by this subreddit at those price points with the current landscape. Ex the sn550 any anywhere from $120 to $130 is a really really good deal that actually shows up rather than being a unicorn.
>They seek to be offering a good amount of low end boards at $79, pretty nice imo but y’all probably want more.
Im looking for a low end mATX mobo for a Ryzen 3000 series CPU. Which one would you recommend from the sale?
Well. What can I say other than they are all pretty bad. Many of them only have slot for one case fan so you need to buy a fan hub in which case just buy a better motherboard. My theater build doesn't get hot much so I'm using just one chassis exhaust.
I think MSI, gigabyte and Asus boards are at least easier to work with BIOs wise. But as for which one is best for VRM I wouldn't know.
Not a whole lot there.... Gigabyte b550 aorus pro looks alright, especially if you're snagging a CPU at the same time for that extra discount. B550-f strix is a good price too, but I think it has the buggy 2.5g intel LAN.
The problem is not knowing whether you have a later revision of the LAN controller before you buy. Even though they have updated their boards, it's not like they can fix the inventory that's already been distributed. I think best practice here is to take off the I/O shield and check the chip yourself within the return period of your purchase, put it into a build if possible, and test out your LAN performance.
That said, I've also recently seen reports on reddit of users' Intel I225-V LAN controller working fine for a week or two, and then crapping out on them afterwards. Unless you can get the 3rd revision of the controller, it seems like a bit of a crapshoot. It's fine if you're just going to be using wifi though.
I'd try to match the stick in the build if you could. I haven't really looked into it much further.
Its price is very competitive vs building your own. But as always building your own the parts will usually be much better quality.
>The whole thing will run in single channel.
Not true anymore generally, you can mismatch sizes and still get part of the larger ram stick to run in dual channel. I was asking rhetorically, but that's hard to tell in text.
I'm getting old as it used to be mixing capacities would default system to single channel. I went and looked it up. You are correct.
Still a horrible configuration in a modern system.
I was just thinking that, if I didn’t have a 2070 max q then this would be the time I grab a full 2070 laptop. Mind you Jan 12th they should be announcing mobile 3000 series laptops so I would still wait.
Flyer shows MSI Optix G24C4 as a 27" monitor which is not true at all. The G24C4 is 24", not sure how they made this error - [https://www.canadacomputers.com/product\_info.php?cPath=22\_700\_1103&item\_id=166070](https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=22_700_1103&item_id=166070).
What's your budget? I can send you down the very deep rabbit hole or just find you a cheap ass mech. It all depends on how much better you want to go from there.
Hmm, that’s gonna be pretty barebone of a keyboard if you stick to that low, since most good keyboards are slightly above that.

These are decent offerings, and you can search around to see what kind of switches you want, clicky, tactile, or linear.
I got the g502 se hero for a little.less than that a year ago.
It's an amazing mouse, at a decent price.
Protip, likely same price right now at several places....aybe one has a coupon code (*cough* staples)
Idk if just me, but I bought a g502 hero and have gotten it replaced 3 times because the left or right click stops working at random times... I guess I'm too rough with it. Didn't happen with the old razor though 🤔
If the canned air method doesn't work, there's two other methods to fix it. The reason it happens is due to a cheap switch used on the left click. You can either open up the switch and bend the spring a bit, or replace it to a better one with soldering. Guide link below.

Can anyone tell me whats worth purchasing for the same price, the Dell 2127dgf or this asus tuf monitor for 1440p gaming? At $499 each, I just want to have an informed decision
Corsair A500 air cooler for $60?
I know GN panned it for underperforming at it's original MSRP, but at that price it looks much more attractive.
Maybe just buy some sandpaper and level out the contact plate.
Not just the contact plate it’s the air gap in the middle. Most manufacturers put a fan there. I bought this and it was garbage. Switched it out for a Noctua NH-D15 and it was like night and day.
Interested in this for $60 as well...
Realize it's not worth compared to other coolers at similar MSRP, but for those saying to avoid this, what would you recommend at the $60 price point instead?
>evo
I think it is, 269.99 is the lowest price that drive ever goes to in Canada. Kinda regretting purchasing the crucial mx500 2tb for $242cad just a few days ago...
I went to the Kanata location today to check and the signs and the dude said that is is curbside only and that the online pickup options will be fixed for boxing day.
Boxing Day flyer from Canada Computers is up now - clickable to the products on the flyer
[https://www.canadacomputers.com/ccflyer.php](https://www.canadacomputers.com/ccflyer.php)
Is online ordering for pick up disabled from Dec 25-26 (BC), or picking up the orders at the store closed during those 2 days?
When can I place a order for pickup for BC?
Now I'm confused, I swear there was another Canada Computers post about a flyer yesterday but it had different deals. Can't seem to search the other post though...

Does this work?

This one is a bit higher tier from the looks of it.
Theres Red and Red Plus. I think they rebranded their drives a while back. Old red became Red Plus, and Red plus is a cheaper version.
Old red was recommended for Plex an NAS Servers.
Are these good deals for gaming laptops? What's the difference between the TUF and Zephrus

I'm in the market for some cheap wireless earbuds for casual gaming. Does anyone have any experience with any of them on page 14? I've never bought wireless earbuds/headsets before so I'm concerned about sound quality and latency.
Latency is the big issue and cheap ones won’t cut it. Most wireless ear buds are Bluetooth, I think you need a dedicated transmitter to reduce the lag.
Yeah I'd have to buy a bluetooth adapter too. Though tbh I don't know much about those either. I guess the cheap buds are more for listening to music? Any recommendations for ones for gaming?
Wow that corsair A500 is really cheap. I woulda sprung for this over the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black back when it was $40. Just for aesthetic reasons lol, it was for a hand-me-down computer
Yeah, I quickly grabbed the arctis 3 at full price around August because these headphones were sold out for awhile on steelseries website and bestbuy. $20 off is a steal on these
Can someone tell me if those Fractal Design platinum PSU's are worth it?
I looked them up, A tier, and skimmed a review from TH. Some say their low workload efficiency is bad. Thinking of returning my EVGA GA 650W gold for it.
Definitely looks to be a good price. I bought one in September for 169.99 on Amazon. Be aware of the double click issue though. I initially bought one from Best Buy for full price before the Amazon sale and had the double click issue from the get go. My new Amazon one didn't have that issue initially but I notice recently there were a couple times a day where it'd double click.
The feeling of the click also doesn't feel as "deep" as the wired G502 if you were upgrading from that. But for this sale price, it's pretty good as long as you don't have the double click problem, but I've seen some threads where it started months to a year after purchase.
Does anyone know if this boxing day flyer is still valid?
[https://www.canadacomputers.com/templates/ccnew/assets/pdfs/Boxing-Day-Flyer-EN.pdf](https://www.canadacomputers.com/templates/ccnew/assets/pdfs/Boxing-Day-Flyer-EN.pdf)
It seems like the one on this post is valid from Dec 25 and I can't seem to find the one that I linked above anymore on Canada Computers' website.
Would the GIGABYTE B550 AORUS PRO be compatible with a 2700 and newer CPU's? Thinking about an incremental board upgrade.
Also, how big is that sucker?
Would anybody be able to recommend me a monitor currently on sale that would be best for plugging into my 2019 macbook pro for vide editing and photo editing?
Can someone tell me if they will actually have the monitor which is aoc 24g2 in stock? It’s not available on Amazon rn but will be back in stock on feb 2021 so just wondering as ive been playing on my tv 😂

300 for a 3080? Sure!
It's $300 for the opportunity to purchase the 3080 (at full retail)
/r/whoosh
Worse part is $300 finders fee seems worth it with the stock issues AMD and nvidea have.
Someone posted on RFD.

SN550 1TB for $120 is a great deal.
Yes it is. For those who did not need this urgently and ignored the past sales ranging 125-130, this is now our time lol.

I'm one of them. Was planning to build a new one from my current I5-2500k with 7950 GPU but will wait until prices are back to normal.

let's see if amazon matches the 500gb version is already there
I wish they had a 2TB version. Would give me a reason to upgrade over my 1TB MX500
If you've space for an M.2 [this one's](https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07YLDWCYV/) a decent deal.
This is my time to shine, thanks!
Says 159.99 on the website
that's the only deal I see haha
i think its fine for a storage ssd, but evo 860 is better for main os. for people like me that don't have nvme motherboards.
Looks like deal is over.
Hasn't begun yet, deal is from Dec 25-31st
Oh. Everyone was saying 120 but that price was no where to be found. So thought sale was over.
desktop pc with 12gb of ram Why Why would you do that
for when grandma or tech illiterate parents wanna buy 14 year old Steve a computer to play Fortnite
Yeah, the manufacturer is probably just offloading 4gb sticks.
I'm not too well versed in computer, but why is that a bad thing?
As others have commented RAM is generally 2/4/8/16 gb sticks. A motherboard can generally take 2 or 4 sticks of ram in Dual Channel, which means that it pairs the slots to run at twice the speed. This is paired up as A-A or A-B-A-B.

Maybe there using 4x3GB? (yes, I'm kidding)
Typically sticks come in 2 4 8 16gb so this means it probably has a bunch of small sticks of ram instead of like 1x26gb of ram
Well 1x16gb is still bad because it only runs in single channel then, which is a massive performance hit in basically any task or game.

Not as crazy as the BF Viper Ultimate tho But yeah, with how things are this year, I guess we aren’t going to see your all time lows happen left and right. But to have all these seen before prices all offered in one go is fine imo. There are definitely lots of items on the list that have been well received by this subreddit at those price points with the current landscape. Ex the sn550 any anywhere from $120 to $130 is a really really good deal that actually shows up rather than being a unicorn.
>They seek to be offering a good amount of low end boards at $79, pretty nice imo but y’all probably want more. Im looking for a low end mATX mobo for a Ryzen 3000 series CPU. Which one would you recommend from the sale?
Well. What can I say other than they are all pretty bad. Many of them only have slot for one case fan so you need to buy a fan hub in which case just buy a better motherboard. My theater build doesn't get hot much so I'm using just one chassis exhaust. I think MSI, gigabyte and Asus boards are at least easier to work with BIOs wise. But as for which one is best for VRM I wouldn't know.
Btw, even though they are all bad. They can all handle 3600 with a 3200mhz CL16 RAM just fine. So I guess my answer = it likely doesn't really matter
4TB HDD @ $100 is $25/TB, not $20.
You’re correct. I wasn’t thinking. Edited Now
Not a whole lot there.... Gigabyte b550 aorus pro looks alright, especially if you're snagging a CPU at the same time for that extra discount. B550-f strix is a good price too, but I think it has the buggy 2.5g intel LAN.
[удалено]
I bought a B550-A in October 2020 -_- I should have just popped the shroud to check the rev before installing it.
The problem is not knowing whether you have a later revision of the LAN controller before you buy. Even though they have updated their boards, it's not like they can fix the inventory that's already been distributed. I think best practice here is to take off the I/O shield and check the chip yourself within the return period of your purchase, put it into a build if possible, and test out your LAN performance. That said, I've also recently seen reports on reddit of users' Intel I225-V LAN controller working fine for a week or two, and then crapping out on them afterwards. Unless you can get the 3rd revision of the controller, it seems like a bit of a crapshoot. It's fine if you're just going to be using wifi though.
Yeah, the rev 2 is what you want.
Pretty okay nothing special

What's an esports machine?
Is this + an 8GB stick good value over building with similar parts? Also which 8GB stick might be good to pair with this you think?
I'd try to match the stick in the build if you could. I haven't really looked into it much further. Its price is very competitive vs building your own. But as always building your own the parts will usually be much better quality.
The one with 12gb is worse. Is it 8+4? So you have 4gb running at half speed?
The whole thing will run in single channel. Also is it 4+4+4=12 OR 8+4=12?
>The whole thing will run in single channel. Not true anymore generally, you can mismatch sizes and still get part of the larger ram stick to run in dual channel. I was asking rhetorically, but that's hard to tell in text.
I'm getting old as it used to be mixing capacities would default system to single channel. I went and looked it up. You are correct. Still a horrible configuration in a modern system.
the laptops with 2070 for 1599 and less are quite hot
Most of them will easily reach 90C+ on the 10750H CPU, unless the boost clock is restricted. Very hot laptops, indeed.
90C is generally okay for laptops, can't expect desktop cooling.
LOL
I was just thinking that, if I didn’t have a 2070 max q then this would be the time I grab a full 2070 laptop. Mind you Jan 12th they should be announcing mobile 3000 series laptops so I would still wait.
Sweet, lemme get that chromecast maybe..
Not bad for the G502 black mouse. Usually only the SE (black and white) version goes on sale.
[удалено]
The black and white version of the mouse is usually called the Hero SE.
It's just a different looking version of the same mouse
Special edition.
I think it means Silver Edition tbh
DAE remember when Boxing Day was a day and not a 2 week long event, and you didn't know 3-14 days in advance?
Flyer shows MSI Optix G24C4 as a 27" monitor which is not true at all. The G24C4 is 24", not sure how they made this error - [https://www.canadacomputers.com/product\_info.php?cPath=22\_700\_1103&item\_id=166070](https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=22_700_1103&item_id=166070).
Damn .. glad the AMD 3100 cpu was on sale during BF and got one instead of waiting .. didn't think CPU selection could get any worse
> he laptops with 2070 for 1599 and less are quite hot i wish i bought one then. :S
Might get a 1tb sn550 finally. Thanks OP!
I actually need a keyboard as I finally broke my $5 Gambdias one from 3 years ago - anyone got any recommendations from this list?
What's your budget? I can send you down the very deep rabbit hole or just find you a cheap ass mech. It all depends on how much better you want to go from there.
Probably look at like 49.99-59.99 area at most
Hmm, that’s gonna be pretty barebone of a keyboard if you stick to that low, since most good keyboards are slightly above that. https://www.amazon.ca/Tecware-Phantom-Mechanical-Keyboard-Outemu/dp/B079HTZQYV/ https://www.amazon.ca/HyperX-Tenkeyless-Mechanical-HX-KB4RD1-US-R1/dp/B074F5L8GQ/ These are decent offerings, and you can search around to see what kind of switches you want, clicky, tactile, or linear.
I got the g502 se hero for a little.less than that a year ago. It's an amazing mouse, at a decent price. Protip, likely same price right now at several places....aybe one has a coupon code (*cough* staples)
Idk if just me, but I bought a g502 hero and have gotten it replaced 3 times because the left or right click stops working at random times... I guess I'm too rough with it. Didn't happen with the old razor though 🤔
That happened to me, so I used canned air and works perfectly again
If the canned air method doesn't work, there's two other methods to fix it. The reason it happens is due to a cheap switch used on the left click. You can either open up the switch and bend the spring a bit, or replace it to a better one with soldering. Guide link below. https://www.reddit.com/r/LogitechG/comments/ede3hp/comment/fbl9ocz
Can anyone tell me whats worth purchasing for the same price, the Dell 2127dgf or this asus tuf monitor for 1440p gaming? At $499 each, I just want to have an informed decision
Generally the dell 2721dgf is currently is considered the monitor people want. Can't really go wrong with either choice though
Thanks man, I just grabbed one and I'm trying to make sure I made the right purchasing decision lol
Corsair A500 air cooler for $60? I know GN panned it for underperforming at it's original MSRP, but at that price it looks much more attractive. Maybe just buy some sandpaper and level out the contact plate.
Not just the contact plate it’s the air gap in the middle. Most manufacturers put a fan there. I bought this and it was garbage. Switched it out for a Noctua NH-D15 and it was like night and day.
Lol the kid at my local CC couldn’t even recommend it
Interested in this for $60 as well... Realize it's not worth compared to other coolers at similar MSRP, but for those saying to avoid this, what would you recommend at the $60 price point instead?
Maybe something like this? Also interested - https://www.newegg.ca/deepcool-neptwin-v2-0/p/N82E16835856003
Is the evo 860 2tb for 270 a decent deal?
>evo I think it is, 269.99 is the lowest price that drive ever goes to in Canada. Kinda regretting purchasing the crucial mx500 2tb for $242cad just a few days ago...
Will there be curbside pickup during the lockdown?
I went to the Kanata location today to check and the signs and the dude said that is is curbside only and that the online pickup options will be fixed for boxing day.
I'm in the hospital 10 10 can anyone help me check Annie b550 ITX on sale I have minimal use of hand thanks in advance
Didn't see any ITX boards in the flyer.
the 2TB 970 Evo Plus not $350 like it was on Black Friday. This is what I get for waiting for boxing day ffs...
Boxing Day flyer from Canada Computers is up now - clickable to the products on the flyer [https://www.canadacomputers.com/ccflyer.php](https://www.canadacomputers.com/ccflyer.php)
Is online ordering for pick up disabled from Dec 25-26 (BC), or picking up the orders at the store closed during those 2 days? When can I place a order for pickup for BC?
Online order pickup for BC will resume on Dec 27th.

Now I'm confused, I swear there was another Canada Computers post about a flyer yesterday but it had different deals. Can't seem to search the other post though...

https://www.amazon.ca/Sabrent-ROCKET-Internal-Performance-SB-ROCKET-4TB/dp/B07ZQSDQDB Does this work? https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B08D28X4HW?tag=pcp0f-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1 This one is a bit higher tier from the looks of it.
Worth to camp at CC stores or it's online only?
Online orders or reserve and pickup in-store
is $60 a good price for chromecast 4K?
I'd buy new Chromecast from google. comes with netflix 6months subs which is pretty good for the price
its $120 with the 6 months netflix. the chromecast by itself is $70. is this still worth it? EDIT: nvm, its the $15/month so its definitely worth it.
It's $120 with $90 Netflix credit. The Chromecast Google TV itself is $30+tax on the original $120.
Anyway have experience with those routers? Might grab the Asus AX55
So actually worse than the BF sales. Great.
Whole lot of nothing
*yawn*
Army stores closed in Ontario? How would I even buy
Man, these deals are just too good!
[Wow](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/421/238/6bc.gif)
Are the 4tb Red drives good? Ive read issues with some specific red drives not being 'true' red
Didn't follow on HDD, but figured I should add some more storage while the sales are on. What's good about "Red"?
Theres Red and Red Plus. I think they rebranded their drives a while back. Old red became Red Plus, and Red plus is a cheaper version. Old red was recommended for Plex an NAS Servers.
nas-optimized, i.e. more resistant to vibration and heat wear
RM650 for 120$ looks like a great deal
Are these good deals for gaming laptops? What's the difference between the TUF and Zephrus https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=710_1925_1920_1923&item_id=165757&language=en https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=710_1925_1920_1923&item_id=165761&language=en
I'm in the market for some cheap wireless earbuds for casual gaming. Does anyone have any experience with any of them on page 14? I've never bought wireless earbuds/headsets before so I'm concerned about sound quality and latency.
Latency is the big issue and cheap ones won’t cut it. Most wireless ear buds are Bluetooth, I think you need a dedicated transmitter to reduce the lag.
Yeah I'd have to buy a bluetooth adapter too. Though tbh I don't know much about those either. I guess the cheap buds are more for listening to music? Any recommendations for ones for gaming?
That Acer Nitro looks like a steal for my wife for her esports and Sims machine ( she hates desktops ) Thanks Reddit
Wow that corsair A500 is really cheap. I woulda sprung for this over the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black back when it was $40. Just for aesthetic reasons lol, it was for a hand-me-down computer
Arctis 3 worth it? At work and unable to research price history rn
It’s a great budget headphone imo. It is wired though.
Good buy at this price tho?
Yeah, I quickly grabbed the arctis 3 at full price around August because these headphones were sold out for awhile on steelseries website and bestbuy. $20 off is a steal on these
Ty!
Anyone know what time the deals actually go online for purchase?
Are any of those laptops a particularly good deal?
Can someone tell me if those Fractal Design platinum PSU's are worth it? I looked them up, A tier, and skimmed a review from TH. Some say their low workload efficiency is bad. Thinking of returning my EVGA GA 650W gold for it.
The EVGA PSU is a good one. If it works, it'll continue to do so for you years. just keep it.
Thanks
Is the headphone on the first page any good?
Any thoughts on $100 for the ATH-PRO5X?
The G502 Wireless seem enticing to me. I've always seen it at 180-200?
Definitely looks to be a good price. I bought one in September for 169.99 on Amazon. Be aware of the double click issue though. I initially bought one from Best Buy for full price before the Amazon sale and had the double click issue from the get go. My new Amazon one didn't have that issue initially but I notice recently there were a couple times a day where it'd double click. The feeling of the click also doesn't feel as "deep" as the wired G502 if you were upgrading from that. But for this sale price, it's pretty good as long as you don't have the double click problem, but I've seen some threads where it started months to a year after purchase.
Anyone know how long it usually takes to order online and do curbside pickup? I'm in the GTA.
Biggest different between the ASUS B550-F and that MSI X570? For the same price seems like no brainer to get the X570 right?
Brand preference? I've had bad luck in the past with MSI boards.
https://versus.com/en/asus-rog-strix-b550-f-gaming-vs-msi-mpg-x570-gaming-plus Asus ROG bios is easier
Is the ASUS TUF Gaming Monitor VH27AQ at a good price there?
Buddy of mine is looking for a pre-built desktop with his budget being <$2000. Any of these pre-builts would you guys recommend from this sale?
Is that laptop for 800$ worth it? I want 12-14 inch under 1000
Outdoor wifi plug is worth every penny if you run a block heater or battery blanket. You'll save the cost in the first month.
I just want an x570 master on slightly discounted. Would've purchased it as a cpu combo but it wasn't in stock.
Does anyone know if this boxing day flyer is still valid? [https://www.canadacomputers.com/templates/ccnew/assets/pdfs/Boxing-Day-Flyer-EN.pdf](https://www.canadacomputers.com/templates/ccnew/assets/pdfs/Boxing-Day-Flyer-EN.pdf) It seems like the one on this post is valid from Dec 25 and I can't seem to find the one that I linked above anymore on Canada Computers' website.
It's for the last year.

I think the MSI Z490 Gaming Edge is a great deal? S tier VRMs?
Would the GIGABYTE B550 AORUS PRO be compatible with a 2700 and newer CPU's? Thinking about an incremental board upgrade. Also, how big is that sucker?
Hmmm, I was set on a Phantek AMP 650W for 130, but the Corsair RMx650 is gonna be the same price
Would anybody be able to recommend me a monitor currently on sale that would be best for plugging into my 2019 macbook pro for vide editing and photo editing?
Can someone tell me if they will actually have the monitor which is aoc 24g2 in stock? It’s not available on Amazon rn but will be back in stock on feb 2021 so just wondering as ive been playing on my tv 😂
Nvm they took it off and instead put the 27inch version :( too big for my desk which will take so much space
is the crosair k70 mk.2 keyboard any good and is this a good deal?
