    Road Trip Route

    Hi everyone. I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this but I can move it I guess. My wife, 3yr old and I are emigrating to Belgium in January. We live in Johannesburg and the plan is to spend a couple of weeks with her family in Cape Town and then fly out from there. We're thinking...

    Where can I buy anti-static bags?

    Hi Everyone. I'm emigrating in a few months and I'm taking my PC with. I need to buy some anti-static bags so I can pack the components safely but I'm struggling to find any that aren't bulk sales. I don't need 100, 20 max... Any help is appreciated. Regards, Devon.

    Emigration question. Laptop or Console?

    Yup. That's what I ended up deciding to do. Bought a Ryzen 5 3600 rig with an RTX 2060 6GB OC in it for R3k less than the laptop I had in mind which only has a GTX 1660 in it...

    Emigration question. Laptop or Console?

    So PC's that side are not cheaper than here. From my brief look they're around the same price or a little more expensive. Aside from the fact that when we get there, I forsee my wife needing to dip into my PC fund for bedding or curtains or something like that and I know I won't end up getting...

    Emigration question. Laptop or Console?

    Thanks everyone!! Your responses and advice are greatly appreciated... Just to throw a spanner in the works...what's the opinion on getting a Desktop?? I've read that if you take the delicate bits out of the case, package it properly and put it into a decent carry on they should be safe...then...

    Emigration question. Laptop or Console?

    Hi guys. I've got a budget of between R15 - 20k and I need to decide whether to get a decent gaming laptop or perhaps some consoles. The kicker is that I'm emigrating at the end of the year. Obviously a laptop is much easier to take with, but I'm wondering if anyone has any experience on...

    Huawei P30 and P30 Pro

    So I'm due for an upgrade and was considering getting the P30 or P30 Pro...but I'm hearing conflicting reports about how serious the split from Google is. MTN say that all current devices up to the P30 Pro have valid licenses and they'll continue getting updates and support from Google and it's...

    Best wrist based fitness tracker for Crossfit or HIIT??

    Ok so it looks like it will pair with any device or app that supports ANT+ or BT...so I can pair it with the Garmin device and the data will be ingested by Garmin's mobile app... The bands are R1200 though which might be a bit tough to get past the minister of finance...but perhaps I can...

    Best wrist based fitness tracker for Crossfit or HIIT??

    As far as I'm aware that's right. Just make sure you arrange it with them. "Cancelling" the deal incurs a penalty so be sure that they're aware that you want to settle rather than cancel. And perhaps just double check with them directly? It's been a while since I spoke with them about it and...

    Best wrist based fitness tracker for Crossfit or HIIT??

    Thanks!! The Tickr Fit seems pretty great. The only thing is that it seems like it uses it's own app to store the data and I don't know if their app is able to sync with Discovery for the vitality points? Or can you connect it to the Garmin device and store the data in Garmin's app?? To the...

    Best wrist based fitness tracker for Crossfit or HIIT??

    This is correct @djbrendan . You either pay the required monthly installment (it shows up under your online banking as an account and the debit order goes off automatically) or you pay the full retail price to close it out. You can't pay a little bit extra each month or anything like that. I've...

    Best wrist based fitness tracker for Crossfit or HIIT??

    Yeah it seems like a fantastic device...but it is pricey... I'm not in it for the accuracy of the tracker, more for the vitality points...lol...but I obviously don't want to feel like it's a waste of money like I felt with the Samsung...
