Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Robbojlr on 15/12/2011, 04:34 PM Nah thats through a Sunny Coast business.
Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Mummbles on 15/12/2011, 06:02 PM why dont u speend another 800 orso and get a higher end gamming rig through bohica?
Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Robbojlr on 15/12/2011, 06:15 PM why dont u speend another 800 orso and get a higher end gamming rig through bohica? I don't have much money atm. and I don't need a super computer, just one that runs current games smoothly which is what this should do. Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Carples on 15/12/2011, 07:04 PM get a 560 not 550
Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Dutch on 15/12/2011, 07:19 PM put an extra 150 and get a nice 560 ti card. Then when you more money get another 560 ti card.
Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Vert on 15/12/2011, 07:26 PM You can save a fair bit of money on the motherboard and ram, I would also recommend against the Coolermaster Extreme Plus power supply's, they don't have the best track record. If your looking to save more money you can acquire windows 7 through alternative means, I won't discuss here. Also can save money on the case but thats personal preference.
Here's a sample build with prices from MSY if you have one near you, managed to include a ATI 6870, which is inbetween a GTX 560 and GTX 560 TI in terms of performance. Intel Core i5-2500 $331.00 ASRock H61M-VS B3 $50.00 Transcend 8GB Kit (4Gx2) DDR3 1333 $36.00 Seagate 3.5" Barracuda 1TB $110.00 LG SATA Black DVD RW $19.00 Powercolor 1GB 6870 $169.00 Antec 300 Gaming Tower $59.00 Antec Neo Eco 520C 520W (BYO power cord) $67.00 Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM $96.00 Total: $827.00 EDIT: give Bohica a PM as well mate. Title: Re: PC Build Post by: KARNAGE on 15/12/2011, 07:37 PM listen to vert, that man helped me with my build and not only has it been fantastic, it's reliable enough to withstand, well, me
Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Vert on 15/12/2011, 07:43 PM Cheers karnage but I'd have to say Bohica's our man here, he owns a PC shop :P I'm just giving a general idea of what to get.
Also probably would've worked out cheaper going through Bohica for you karnage? Didn't you manage to wreck a CPU by inserting it the wrong way? Ah funny memories.

Didn't you manage to wreck a CPU by inserting it the wrong way? Ah funny memories. yes :PDT_Armataz_01_16:A shame that the newer members cant become experts in PC building after following what I DIDN'T do since I cant find the thread through searches. Nothing against bohica, but I wanted to buy my parts at the shop with cash, just easier for me I guess. Well, easier to go back and buy a new part... Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Virgil83 on 15/12/2011, 08:04 PM If I were you KARNAGE (and I'm not and never will be, thankfully :P) I'd go the Bohica route... at least you know when the machine shows up it's gonna work... and may or may not explode (depending entirely upon whether Chalice intercepts it en-route and stuff its it full of explosives)..
Shit, I can even build a PC and I'm gonna use Bohica's services (several of them, the least of which is his technical expertise, the most of which involves him, high heels and red lipstick) when I purchase my next new PC... Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Chalice on 15/12/2011, 08:13 PM (depending entirely upon whether Chalice intercepts it en-route and stuff its it full of explosives).. Good luck shitlords...I've got a 6th sense for picking up new pc deliveries....

Can't comment on reliability as mine didn't fail, sold a few weeks ago, but I had a Coolermaster RS-650-PCAR-E3 PSU and it was VERY noisy.

Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Yunique on 16/12/2011, 02:33 PM I like the prices of PC shit in Aus, back in NZ I was having trouble getting stuff at a decent price.
Title: Re: PC Build Post by: Chalice on 16/12/2011, 03:18 PM It should be in some sort of 'best of DI' Done, linked it in best of death inc thread Title: Re: PC Build Post by: DonutKing on 16/12/2011, 06:49 PM what we have one of those?
edit: found it lol I just realised I killed the 'this beats that' thread, but its in a pretty good way so I'm happy with it :) Title: Re: PC Build Post by: YosimeteSam on 17/12/2011, 05:36 AM Get a Corsair PSU at least 650 Watts...As for the Coolermaster PSU..Yum Cha shit! Try and get a GTX570..Stock reference one will be fine... Your better off to get a faster GPU than a faster CPU! That i5 is fine.... But get a GTX570...don't skimp on the card!!!!!
