Where can I buy the RTX 5090 FE in a physical store in Dubai?

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to buy the RTX 5090 Founders Edition (FE) from a physical store in Dubai. I prefer not to purchase from online stores.

Does anyone know which electronics or PC hardware stores in Dubai might have it in stock? Any recommendations on reliable shops and estimated prices would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Is there a good place to get a second hand steam deck OLED for a good price?

Can’t really afford a whole new steam deck but wouldn’t mind paying for a second hand a reasonable price. Is there any place you guys have experience with that has good quality second hand stuff?

Advice needed!

Been using a nitro 5 (gtx1650, i5-9th gen, 8gb and 60hz) for five years now. Mainly play rpg, fps, racing games and bit of coding.

Since I’m planning for a long term upgrade, what is the best time to do so? Should I wait for any sale or new release? What model should I go for? Not willing to spend more than 5-6k as I have limited use now.

It’s the moment for Asus Rog Ally . Yeah BUT…

This noisy friend is running games like Read Dead 2 and Cyberpunk 2077 smoothly

Now in 2025 with all the updates and the optimization made by game studios, AAA games are more accessible in the Rog Ally . In the case of RDR 2 i have a lot of the settings in ultra and a few of them jn medium and it won’t go below 30 FPS even in open areas or towns with lots of elements . BUT . It needs a lot of work . You need to get a masters degree on this machine before you actually squeeze the potential out of it . When I got it it was barely running big games. CYBERPUNK 2077 was running at 2 FPS🥵. 2!!! It was challenging even going through the menu. But it has improved a lot and i totally recommend it if you are an intermediate or advance user with time and patience to spare . These days you can find it for 2300 AED for the Z1 extreme and 1900 for the Z1 model.

Can I trust blackseacomputers?

These guys have insane deals that are found no where else, I've heard the reviews are fake and that the domain was recently made. They look fine just by the website but I want to know if anyone has experience with these guys and if i should buy from them.

Is Cloud Streaming PS3 games to PS5 available in the UAE?

I have the highest tier of PS Plus, and I have the classics catalogue. But I can’t find any of the games supposedly able to be streamed onto PS5 from PS3.

Example, GOW original trilogy. Can’t find it anywhere on PS Plus. I can’t find a ‘Cloud Streaming’ area either, and when I sort by platform it’s only PS4 and PS5, can’t see earlier consoles.

I know people have issues with ping and connection, but is there a reason I can’t even access it? Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance :)

PC Parts help.

Currently planning to build a pc and I need some recommendations for what other parts to buy and are there any online stores / physical stores near business bay that I can check out for some good deals?

This is what i currently have in mind.

5700x3d or 5800x3d if available. ( dont wanna go for the 7800x3d...budget wont allow limit is around 4.5k dhs)
4070 super. (this because it has shadow play, that records every kill / knockout you get)

I am also eyeing the Viewsonic Xg2431 on microless.

going to use this pc purely for PUBG (which is why i am only going for an x3d cpu)

as for the other parts im basically clueless...help.

RTX 5080 on release day

Was scouring the local shops and online sites since the past week to get a hint of the price on these cards as i was looking to buy one. Now that they're releasing this 6PM i've got prices and maaaan they're crazy. I won't name which shop in Al Ain Centre but they're forcing you to buy a full pc build otherwise they won't bat an eye on you.

So this is how it goes every release day, guess gotta wait for a couple of days before i can buy one at a fair price.

Is this a good PC deal (Microless) - Prebuilt

Hi I am new into PC gaming, previously only had laptops therefore i dont know much about pc gaming. I wanted to get my self a pre-built PC and found the following listing on microless (https://uae.microless.com/product/gigatitan-xtreme-gaming-pc-intel-core-i9-14900kf-24-cores-32-threads-nvidia-rtx-4080-super-16gb-32gb-ddr5-ram-6400mhz-1tb-ssd-gen-4-850w-80-plus-psu-360mm-liquid-cooler-windows-11-proi/).

its costing 8,899.00. Is it a good price for this built? I am not comfortable building a PC for myself thats why im going for a prebuilt. However, if I can buy the parts from a store and have them assemble for me and if that turns out to be cheaper i dont mind doing that too. I am open to any type of suggestions. In general I would not want to lower the specs to save money but if in the same money or a few hundred up or down i can get a better performing PC then im all ears. Specs listed below too:

VXE R1 Pro in Dubai

Where can I buy VXE R1 Pro Max? I searched quite a few retail store websites but still haven't found one that will deliver in a few days. I don't want to order from Aliexpress since it's the CNY period, and the order might be delayed.

Availability of Ryzen Thinkpads.

Disclaimer:I'm sorry that my Post is irrelevant to GamingPCs I just want to know about Laptop purchase(UAE) from People like you all.

Guys I have been searching up for ThinkPad T14/X13 Amd Laptops but I can't find AMD models there. But the market is Flooded up with Intel Variants. AMD is miles better than Intel in Laptops that too in a Business Laptops ( No AI Gimmicks). Why the availability of AMD ThinkPads are rare in UAE? Where to find them? I'm from India I dunno about stores and shops to buy Laptops. I talked with 3 store people in Al Ain centre through WhatsApp. They told me AMD has no demand here in UAE. Can anyone Help with this Ryzen thing?

Is it cheaper to buy a GPU from USA?

I'm saving to get a 5070, is it better if I purchase it from a USA site like Best Buy at msrp price 550 USD, and ship it here using a shipping service like Emirates Delivers or Shop N Ship, it says that the shipping cost is around 75-100 AED, so I would be paying around 2100 AED total, I think stores here will sell it at a much higher price
