You do realise that's at least 50% more than 'pricecharting' has as the 'new' price for the pokéwalker version of Heartgold and almost 5x the price a 'new' Platinum should be.
A little patience could've saved you about $300.

I didn’t pay him immediately no, I told him to send me few pics and I asked him questions. He answered them all and send pics. Other sellers dont send pics and say if you didn’t like them return them hehe no pic.

gaming grounds is the best one and have both games.

The money I spent was a extra/gift, I am not rich at all .... to me they worth it.

Welp, got a decent refund this year thanks to babby and marriage, so gonna use some of the extra cash to replace my HP x360 laptop I've had for about 2 years now. The screen has a crack in it so no more touchscreen and it's not the fastest thing in the world, so this time I'm opting for something with a bit more dedicated power...

A used 2017 Razer Blade 14, for $700. Has an i7 7700hq, 16GB of RAM, 256GB NVMe, and a GTX 1060, which will be miles better than the Ryzen 5 2500u and it's Vega 8 APU in the HP. I could've gotten something a bit better for just a little bit more, but I'm not planning on using this for hardcore gaming or anything especially (that's my desktop :P), I just wanted something with a decent amount of performance behind it in case I wanted to do some gaming while watching the babby, that's also fairly light and compact so I'm not lugging heavy stuff everywhere.


EDIT: Also ordered some more thermal paste, so I can repaste the CPU and GPU when it shows up :)

Wow they are so cheap I might pick up a Xbox dongle if they are not too much to try it on 360/One and like I said that dongle you bought will also work on PS3 and vice-versa if you got a PS3 dongle.

I will probably stock up on those, I have a feeling that it will become the next PS3 memory card adapter...
Seems like it, things are still very hard to find. Plus once PS5 comes out it's gonna be tough to even find new DS4s.

Finally got an Action Replay disc for launching GBI so I no longer have to mess around with Agent Under Fire hacks. So nice now just turn on the Gamecube and it boots right to the Gameboy player! Another nice thing is that the Action replay disc does not keep spinning in the drive like the Agent Under Fire disc used to.

Few old PC games, Madden 07 as filler for PS2 collection.

And what i consider as my personal holy grail right now, Ballistic for the NUON DVD Player, its the first time i ever see a NUON game in the wild and i had to pick it up despite not having a NUON player

I purchased a Super Famicom with two controllers for £30 ($39) and before purchasing I told the seller to kindly send me the console in better condition and same for the controllers. Hopefully he did that, but the console is probably yellowed no matter what. The controllers alone are like worth £10 each, so it's a good deal.

There's still 4 more for sale.

The pic of the eBay product (a sample of what one could receive)...

Are these made of gold?

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
