amd used to have a factory here
the die still come from foundries
2005-era processors had "assembled in malay" on them
Yes my Phenom II is also Made in Malaysia
But that's 2009
prices r still fked here tbh
at least the lower ends r untouched
considering malaysian demographics, that's 80% of the market
If I ever come to Singapore I'll bring you a cpu from Europe
Poor guys you
threadripper 3xxx?
They're basically half priced here
<:alismirk:230784726615588865>
Well if you pay it
I'll just smuggle it
Illegal CPU trafficking
One step towards my Malaysian Pirate dream
if you wrap it as a gift I doubt chinkapore customs will question you much
tfw nvidia cards still ridiculous price here
even 1 series
Then no customs will ask questions
1050ti is RM 800 still
"sir why do you have a cpu in your luggage?" - "I always carry one with me in case locals force me to use Intel"
!answer 800myr to usd
191.98 US dollars
sigh
Thats not as bad as the cpu in relation
damn
170 euros here
abotu the same i guess
but still a lot imo
fucking nvidia and their memory pricing schemes
140 $ here
I got a 570 for 90 $ on Black Friday
i could get one as well
but shit happened
Now there's a 580 for 130 $ on sale and I feel like I made a mistake
ouch
feels good to get 1060 for free
i just need to do the silent switcharoo
