showing my ignorace but whats OCAU?

Overclockers Australia

www.overclockers.com.au

It was primarily an overclocking website but now its a very big forum with a wide variety of areas, motoring, science, sports, current events and of course all the computer related stuff. If your into geeky stuff or endless arguments you'll probably find something to interest yourself there.

hey yeh 2 grande to build just a system is plenty for the average gamer (not in retail) i never look at retail prices nowadays so maybe 2 gs isnt that much for a box (no mon), i spent 3 gs whole sale on my comp and its running a treat, but dont future proof urself when buying a computer... theres no such thing, young kids just tell it to their parents to try and buy better equipment. :(

lol i spent about 4g on this rig over time got rid (not by choice) of my x850XT PE for a x1900xtx

but yeah HDTV and all the good bits when brand new

CPU+Ram was $1000

Mobo+PSU was $650

LCD was $700 3 years ago

and the list goes on ...

a quick $2,000 PC no monitor hopefully youve got 1

maybe SAZilla can do the same to show a comparison of a asus system

keep in mind these arnt the skimpiest parts and system could be built cheaper but there not the deaest parts either its a nice comprimise

Have a look at www.umart.com.au

System looks nice only problem might be the power supply most prob need a 400watt min.

You can get the ga-965p-ds3 which is the same motherboard as the one u listed but without the intergrated graphics which you dont need so its cheaper.

i like to build them with intergrated just in case you have to RMA the gfx card your not left without a basic PC

and yeah would probably get @ least a 350w PSU but you wouldnt have to as my dads case has a 350 generic and it runs my xtx fine so a 300w would be ok for a PRO card

alot of these website arnt good for ppls that dont know what there looking @ its a bunch of pages with prices and pictures if Nick doesnt know which motherboard goes with which CPU then thats why hes here asking for help

if anyone wants 20-22 inch widescreen monitors... talk to me. under 600 dollars, great for alot of things including u fellas with xbox 360s needing something cheap and moderately big to play games using 1080dpi Hi Definition.

Actually thats the going price these days. Check out www.staticice.com.au

The viewsonic 2025 is one I picked up and its fantastic (21" widescreen). Got it for $550 delivered a few months ago.

yeah im thinking 22" 1080i for 600 very hard to find that since you dont get 1920x1200 until you hit the 24" screen

EDIT

OMG OMG

22

FP222W 22"WIDE,5ms,300nits,700:1,D-SUB,DVI-D,1680x1050,SILVER/BLACK BenQ

$239.00

not the reso i wanted but its a good brand and its cheap ... must be off the back of a truck

or far more amazing

FP241W 24"WIDESCREEN,500nits,1000:1,6ms,DSUB,DVI-D,HDMI,SVID,BLACK BenQ

$259.00

I just rang them and both of those prices were entered incorrectly (no big surprise).

But I have been looking at these (OCAU did a group buy on these recently, but this price beats even that) :

Chimei 22" WS

lol tell em its in black and white i want 10 of each monitors

EDIT

Chimei 221A 22" WS

You want to look at the 221D as it has dvi. If you want to have a look at the chimei monitors in action jb hifi in marion has one setup.

    • The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change
    • I was at Tunehouse in Marrickville (great team over there really know their VR's) , and I spotted this Very clean R35.  
    • Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down. 
    • The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
