From my research 2070's aren't worth it, it won't run raytraces well unless you do 2080 and you might as well get a 1070/80 until the technology matures.

Anyone have any additional info on $300 CC gc with selected TV purchases. I get the feeling none of the ones in the flyer will qualify...

I bought the WD Red 4TB's on BF for $119. Decent at $124, but still not as good as the BF deals.

Canada computers as far as I know hasn't really commented on their recent security issues. See https://www.reddit.com/r/bapcsalescanad ... ir_server/ I did find some news articles that picked it up and some supposedly CC employees commenting. But nothing really concrete or official. That's pretty scary given how serious of an issue it was.

Probably best to buy elsewhere if you can. Or physically go in store and only pay cash and give none of your personal details.

And die in 2 hours.

Those Team Group SSDs are just horrible and have terrible DOA and early-death-rates, and even if it works the performance is extremely low, easily lower than a platter drive at writes (10-30 MB/s in some cases)

This has caused reviewers to surmise that this is actually another one of those "SD controller + chips in an SSD case" scams, but the case is glued together and you would have to rip it totally apart to see.

Official Response from Dollarama Management:

Dollarama has a no exchange/no refund policy, and as a result, all sales are final. This information can be found on the screen of each check-out/point-of-sale in our stores as well as on each receipt.

I have the 250Gb version of this, had it for about 6 months. It was in my gaming PC and now it is the HDD for a Dell laptop I got from Microsoft store. I find it decent, no complaints so far.
Maybe I got lucky.
