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.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
