AUSTRIA PC Parts Hunt - How To Get DEALS in Europe!

2018-08-08
here we are now finally in Austria and landed in absolutely fine I've recovered and after that deals hunt as well that bust in Italy which things went okay but now this time around we have a home-field advantage and that is Ron he has a car he also speaks Austrian and fluent English he's also got a channel called Tec therapy so he's really good at building custom pcs and today we're going to go deals hunting through a couple of sites so if you're in Austria there are two main ways to get PC parts and that is through will Harbin which is kind of like gum tree and Craigslist's if you're overseas but also there's that website and that app that we used before spark which was good and Italy it's sort of like a smartphone quick snap and get those deals so we're gonna be browsing both of those but the good news is as well we've already picked up a couple of deals so let's get you used PC parts hunting capes on and go for the hunt welcome by detects any before we start this deals hunt there is already some deals that I've lined up on the app Spock one of those being 32 gigabytes of ddr3 Vengeance memory got this 495 euro shipped and we've also lined up 16 gigabytes of ddr3 vengeance this is some really decent stuff in terms of X and P profiles this is 55 euro we can go pick this up later today and then there's also a PC a whole PC with a 1050 Ti I 570 400 gigabytes of ddr4 memory one terabyte hard drive of Zeus motherboard everything got this for 250 euros shipped so some of these deals the shipping might come in after I leave but that's not a problem because Ron said he can make me a little stash pack and then send that over to Australia so it's not a big problem I guess the whole meaning of today is to show that yes with the home-field advantage we're gonna get those deals so here we are now and we're going on to will haben and we pulled up a heap of different graphics cards scrolling through here that's anything from gtx 660 s the gtx 770 s26 ats to 970 defect which we drop in a real low offer perhaps of reball could definitely do the trick that it's also a 1050 here going really cheap we might even come under that with money like an offer of 60 and that price would be well worth it 780ti as well hopefully we can go lower than these offers main ones here that I'm looking forward to calling up though is the 980 s and they both go on for pretty decent prices as they are but especially this one here with the custom Arctic cooling solution if we get this down to 160 it would make it really worthwhile then there's some 10 70s which were mined on there going for I believe 310 euro if we came in maybe 250 and they took that that'd be a decent price yet again today we've got I 739 30k as well 75 euro even at the asking price that's a decent deal we're gonna come in maybe with like 55 euro so we can score that but then there's this one here an honorable mention because this is actually quite a rare board nowadays x79 micro ATX rampage or gene this is a really good board whilst 16 gigabytes of ddr3 if you're in Austria you put an offer of 250 you just may get this recently I wouldn't go for it as I bought 2 X 79 boards recently they were the big brother of this and I got them for really good deals but we'll talk about that in a separate video and then last up here we've got a PC and it's 135 asking price we're gonna come in really low here 75 because I don't think anyone's putting offers on this and it's got what I want 1 terabyte hard drive I three decent motherboard and some RAM to boot so 70 Europe it would be a decent deal so basically now we've hit the road and we've got a few deals lined up of course some of the deals we have to meet the people after 7:00 p.m. now in Austria the Sun especially in summer sets really late things like 8:30 9:00 so feels like it's like 3:00 in the afternoon yet it's already almost 6 p.m. but first deal we got lined up here is the i7 3930k we ended up scoring this the 60 euro we're going to go pick that up right now it's about 20 minutes down the road so we just on the highway now and what a deal I think that's like a hundred Australian dollars US dollars even less but what we're gonna do is we keep picking up these deals and then once we get all the deals I'll tally up the prices for you guys to see how we went right so we got the first deal here we're just driving out of what's this town called shuffling shuffling okay so we're just getting out of shuffling we've picked up the 3930k got this for 60 euro it's time to go get ourselves a gtx 980 now so just got done picking up this here the GTX 980 we've got this for a hundred and seventy euro I think that's around two hundred and seventy Ozzie dollars this is the Strix Edition as well so pretty much one of the best and the best when it comes to the GTX 960 my pict up a GTX 980 gigabyte for 250 but for me personally I'd rather pay an extra $20 for a Strix Edition card with that said let's go pick up the next deal so now we just got the last deal for today from I'm Devon this is a GTX 1060 I actually found this on Spock I was going for 150 euro put in an offer of 130 he came back at 140 and we just sort of said look we're on the road we can come and pick this thing up now and he agreed for 130 so that is pretty much because it's getting late now it's like almost 9 o'clock even though there's still sort of sunlight out which it's crazy we're going to actually postpone the next deal which is a GTX 680 which we're gonna pick up for 45 euro we're gonna postpone that till tomorrow because that's on the other side like it's over a 40-minute drive away and Ron has to go there in the morning anyway so we're gonna pick that deal up in the morning and that pretty much is where we're gonna come back from tonight we're gonna head back home and then take a quick look at what we've got so now we're back at Ron's place and this is the GTX 980 and that is one deal in the bag the Strix we've got the KF a2 which is what galaxy's called I believe in the EU and that is a GTX 10 63 gigabyte and then we've got these 3930k so that concludes today's pickups we've also got some of those deals being posted I don't know if they'll make it in time whilst I'm still in Austria's actually have to leave tomorrow night but tomorrow morning we're definitely going to be getting on that grind again hustling them deals seeing what we can pick up and seeing what will finally go into the suitcase before I head on over to Japan but how do we say that an Austrian I don't want to hear it in the comments down here you should been nicked incoming Thailand so now we just got this deal right here this is the GTX 680 picked this up for 45 euro and the good thing is it comes with a water block as well and they stock cooler so really neat deal considering a GTX 680 in Australia usually goes for around a hundred Australian dollars and you still don't get a water block with that as well so really nice pickup let's get back on the road and see what else we can get and to quickly recap the deals that we've actually confirmed now we've got 32 gigabytes of ddr3 memory Corsair Vengeance scored that we've got a GTX 980 GTX 1060 a whole PC with a GTX 1050 Ti and an i5 7400 a 3930k and also a GTX 680 these are all the deals we pick these up for 740 euro in total which is about 866 US dollars on the current change rate or if you're in Australia 1165 so Austria has definitely been good to me and this was only over a couple of days so I did this yesterday and today so one and a half days the two days before this I was recovering resting up and doing a bit of sightseeing has actually got a cold when I was over in Italy but here we are guys deer hunting you can do it in Europe but one thing of course is you've got to speak the local lingo the local language one thing I will say about Austria however is that I find on average a lot more people here speak English than they did in Italy people looked at me strange when I just try to speak some English in Italy but in Austria they actually spoke back to me especially a lot of the younger generation so that was interesting of course if you're going to Europe and the official language of the country is not English then I sort of wouldn't Bank on hoping that people spoke English but I think in Austria you could get by if you didn't speak English I think it's definitely possible but anyway right now we're going to change the water block over to the staff cooler so I can fit that in the suitcase lighten up the burden a little bit and then we are going to head off to Vienna so before I go I'm actually gonna give the waterblock to Ron since he does a lot of hard line custom water loops and also on that note this does have a lot of like someone's been putting this maybe on carpet or cat fur mighta got honors or something and so there is a little bit of gunk on this and you don't want that touching the PCB because it can cause problems so an easy solution for this is to just simply flip the pads over to the clean side so that'll be touching the PCB and you won't have to worry about changing pads in this case because I could use these pads here but they're thinner than these and that can cause problems as well so we just picked up the i5 8400 got that for 120 euro now something Crazy's happened I've got about two hours and 20 minutes before I get get to the airport but another deals come out 50 euro for a GTX 1050 so we're gonna quickly hustle that put that in the suitcase as well and then we jump on a plane so now here we are I'm right before the gate I've got 15 minutes to a boarding time the 10:50 that was a bus the guy he sold it to someone else but the ddr3 16 gigabytes they go back to your head and come back so anyway he's gonna get that tomorrow Austria has been absolutely amazing and Ron right here he is the Austrian gun when it comes to getting those deals absolutely phenomenal and just always on the hunt always on the grind Austria proved that you can get deals where it's you you just got to be on your hustle be on your grind and here I am now I'm gonna be heading to Japan doing the exact same thing because I do speak the lingo I know where to go and a big thanks to run as well for hosting us absolutely awesome love you guys in the community love what Ron's doing if you have any questions or comments be sure to drop a comment the comment section below and I'll catch you in another tech video very soon cheers for now bye oh wait it's peace out for now oh wait take one piece out for now bye so Ron's also taught me how to say some of the company names in Austrian as Zeus is our Zeus EVGA is a folder and then MSI is MSG and then gigabytes gigabyte and then I think as rock is a sure doc so here we are finally in Austria and we've finally yeah this freaked me out the Z key is located over here and the Y key is changed over here I think this is unique to Austria Germany and Switzerland
