Whole thread about it. Just make sure you test the 120hz in the first week as some units have issues. Mine does not though

How's the performance when connected to PC for movies and gaming? Is there very noticeable input lag and can frame processing be minimized/turn off? Considering one as a monitor, but I'm told TVs make bad monitors generally.

Haven’t connected it to a PC. It’s a PS5/Xbox/Plex machine for me. Haven’t noticed any lag in any use case so far but I’m sure if you take a Laptop to Makro they won’t mind you checking it out
 
Thanks for the concern everyone. I did do some research and they seem legit. Even a previous thread on here with reputable members confirming they bought from Chavda before:

Received an email from them now stating that stock will only arrive at the end of October and that they will be refunding me.

Product is now out of stock on the website, but at double the price.

R1 cheaper than Snatcher, nice. There is a %-off snatcher voucher floating about though. They dropped to this price a week or so ago and is at this price all over - nice and cheap, but the CPUs are crazy expensive when I checked.

I was tempted getting 1 but like you said, CPU prices are still crazy.

Was actually priced at R9500 retail from the two spots I checked, till about mid august sometime, no RRP nonsense.

Farkstakes, how much is a CPU?
And why would normal people need those CPU's when a 5950X 16core is plenty for 99.99999% of the population?

Ignoring their R50 offer, they are R9 cheaper, all in. But do I trust a glorified chinashop with my tech purchases? No.
