Hello Everyone,

Due to users who continuously ignore the sub rules and having their posts removed only to repost right after, we have no choice but to take extreme measures to curb and keep this space's sole purpose as a gaming community and having civil discussions where we can learn from one another.

This goes without saying for self promoting business and social media accounts.

Ban appeals are welcome but AI generated appeals will be ignored. Mods will review ban appeals and will decide whether to respond or not.

Lastly I want sincerely thank the community for reporting these posts and comments, it makes a difference.

Best regards,

I just got $60 PSN card (equivalent of 240 dirhams on the PS store) on Amazon just for 190 dirhams.

I used the following code - DIGI8ER4 (I can't guarantee if it will work) and got 10% discount.

Got Phantom Blade Zero for 190 dirhams instead of 240 👍🏻

Hardware Amazon AE sold me a tampered RTX 5090

Hey folks. When you see a good deal, you better believe that something is up, even from a trusted retailer.

Yesterday while I was browsing Amazon.ae for an RTX 5090, I found an Aorus RTX 5090 White Edition listed under Amazon Resale for 14,916 AED.

Knowing that Amazon does reinstate returned items under resale category, and I have bought resold items before, I didn’t think twice to snatch this. It’s 50% below current market pricd and sold by the official Amazon Resale channel, heck yeh!

Thinking I’ve won the jackpot, I rushed home to see the delivery.

Box was looking bit scuffed, but this was expected from resold items.

So I opened the box, saw the accessories intact. Very good so far.

Then came the card. It was in the ESD bag, so I took it out. Then…

Biggest blunder! A tiny loose connector emerging near the card’s power connector.

I flip the card, and more bads news. Multiple connectors probably for the fans are disconnected.

Oh no….

This only means 1 thing. Chips have been harvested and already half way through China.

I immediately applied for an item return. Booked for next day to be picked up.

Lesson learned.

We avoided the fake chinese sellers, but fell for official Amazon resale listing. Watch out folks it’s getting trickier by the minute to source a 5090 on a good deal.

So, asking myself, what does a naked 5090 look like?

Curiosity hit me. I had to know, I had to see.

Flipped the card and started removing the screws. They were so loose, the guy that took it apart didn’t even bother to hide his shenanigans. Just a lousy job.

Behold, card clean as a whistle (figuratively). Then he dumped the thermalpaste on the heatsink like the monster he is.

Hope you enjoyed the journey. Let’s see how the return goes, will update you all.

Later!

General Buying a Gaming Laptop from Al Ain Center

6 Upvotes

Anyone have any experience buying a laptop from the wholesale center?
After searching in the malls and online stores, found the lowest price from a seller in computer street in Al Raffa.

the catch is its a US spec/import and its only store warranty, not from the brand.

should i go ahead with the purchase or is it too much of a risk?

PlayStation Question about gamesharing b/w 2 accounts [PS5}

2 Upvotes

I am in the process of setting up a new PSN account outside of the UAE. How does gamesharing work with psn accounts with different regions?

I will refer my UAE account as MAIN and the new one(other region) as SECONDARY

Should the SECONDARY account be activated as primary account for me to play my existing games from my MAIN? Will censored games like CP2077 be uncensored on my SECONDARY or does it involve reinstalling.

Can I play the games I purchase on the SECONDARY on my MAIN and does it involve me making the MAIN as primary.

I am just confused between making what accounts primary for playing games on either accounts and are there any possibility for potential deadlocks/softlocks ? Such as being locked out of accounts due to whatever reason.

Thank you for your response.

Hi everyone
Help me choose a Ps5..I decided to buy one before COD Warzone drop in November 6th I think.
I play for fun only I’m also looking to buy a monitor 34-38 inch to pair with it.
Last time I play COD was 2024 on PS4 haha
Didn’t play B07 or last season COD.Originally from Australia and I have 2 nephews who I missed out on 2 years living in this great country who wants to play COD with their cool uncle.Both are now 1st/2nd year at university so it’s our bonding time as I won’t return home to Brisbane for a long time.

My question are which should I buy
Normal ps5(big one) slim one or the pros?
I’ve bought pros for my nephew but I have the money to my sister to buy my nephews for Christmas but didn’t experience it.

For the ps5 experts I took screenshots off dubizzle please let me know which one I should buy I’m not a gamer but love a good experience and hopefully did my part so my nephew won’t carry my old ass while we play COD.Also please choose for me what should I buy and also is their a big different between the fat ps5,slim ps5 and the pros I see the prices are vastly different and I want disc only.

Thanks in advance.
Noob Uncle

General Issue with Geekay Gift Card

2 Upvotes

Hey Guys, I purchased gift cards through geekay for the PSN store for the UAE region but unfortunately when I try to generate the codes it says undefined error and to contact their support. I contacted them via insta/facebook/email and they emailed back asking for my ID and Card used, which I replied back immediately but it's been over 24 hours with no response.

Has anyone been through the same issue? What should I do? I bought psn cards through them before but never had this issue

Xbox Adding credit card issue

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm having an issue adding my credit card to my Microsoft account so I can pre-order GTA 6.

When I click Save, I get an error saying something went wrong, even though all the card details are 100% correct.

I tried adding my debit card, and it was saved successfully without any issues.

Has anyone else experienced the same problem? Any idea how to fix it?

Thanks!
