Are there any Amazon Prime members here? And if so, are you looking forward to the big Prime Day sale? If I can find a good deal on a 4K TV, it might be time for me to upgrade.

I refuse to buy anything simply because of that annoying commercial.

*who am I kidding, I will probably find something I need...

As a Amazon Prime Member, I'm actually looking into building a new PC gaming despite my current one is still a high-end but the purpose is for me to go back to AMD with it's Ryzen CPU+Motherboard build and so with that, I'll see if they have any deals for PC components and as well as GTX 1080ti since the minors have jacked up both 1070/1080 and makes sense to buy 1080ti despite I love my 1070.

Yeah I'll be doing some shopping myself from Amazon Prime Day.

Is the fire HD 8 any good?.

All-New Fire HD 8 Tablet with Alexa, 8" HD Display, 16 GB, Black — with Special Offers £49,99

All-New Fire HD 8 Tablet with Alexa, 8" HD Display, 32 GB, Black — with Special Offers £69,99

Is 16GB big enough?.

Can you use any micro SD card as already got a 32GB one.

EDIT: Ordered 16GB £49,99 normal price £79.99. arriving tomorrow. If it crap I not spent anything any way I won £400 on roulette in a week last week so I got £155 of amazon vouchers to show something for it. I got a pie 3 the other day too.

I'm broke and haven't had Amazon Prime in years. So nothing for me.

I do most of my online shopping on eBay. Usually cheaper for the stuff I want. Including shipping. Largely since Amazon charges more fees to sell on their site.

PC components? It will be interesting to see if they have any good deals on those because I actually thought about building a gaming rig myself.

I haven't tried the fire tablet or Alexa but that deal does look sweet.

I bounce back and fourth between Amazon and eBay, but eBay does have better deals on certain items.

It's worth the value, but depending on your usage, don't expect it to run smoothly over a period of time. I own Fire 7 tablet and after a few months it became laggy and was not usable for a human being. I only downloaded a couple of apps :( The exact same problem happened with my Fire Stick. Personally, I am better off with an iPad at this rate, but too expensive.

There's a saying "What you see is what you get". Considering the fact you are spending on your winnings from roulette, I wouldn't regret it.

In answering your other questions, 16 GB is sufficient as long as you don't download big-sized games. Not sure about micro SD cards since I haven't touched my Fire 7 in over 10 months.

What stopped me from going Ryzen wasn't Ryzen, but the bad selection of motherboards when it launched. I actually had the Ryzen 1800 preordered on newegg but canceled it a few minutes into what would of been my order confirmation cause of those issues.

As for the 1080ti it might actually be worth it to wait this time until 2018.

Or heck with it, if the deals are there, go and buy some darn happiness and have fun!

I shouldn't be spending money right now, even if I could find good deals.

Yeah I know, that was some serious B.S. I even went to bed early but I still couldn't get up!
