Fair dinkum, a sleeper PC build... The amount of effort is mind boggling for the only possible reasoning that it might not get stolen in the event of a robbery...

[.Stripes.]

Yeah...I'm way too lazy for that.

Same. Just buy good quality parts fit for purpose and then get contents insurance and online backup for data

Anybody had experience with the

 

AOC AGON AG271QG 165hz G-Sync Gaming Monitor

 

Been offered a good deal from a computer wholesaler I deal with for business, including gst it's around $50 less than the cheapest Australian retail price ive found.

Looks good from a quick glance if you can use the G-Sync and refresh rate

Expensive if a 120hz screen would make no difference  to you.

 

Cheapest I could find it was $821. https://www.saveonit.com.au/product/aoc-27-ag271qg-agon-nvidia-g-sync-gaming-monitor

Man that's a bloody good deal, cheapest I was finding was around $850. Might ask my guy for a further discount if possible, it's a wholesaler and their pricing is excellent for the other stuff I buy (cheaper than MSY and everywhere else). I think they import AOC screens.

 

Looking at the acer equivalent which I think is slightly better for closer to $900.

 

I have a card that supports G-SYNC...as for how well it will push 1440P is a different question though.

 

Also ended up getting sent back another one of the same EK water pump...fun. Can get store credit if this unit fails though. this $120 water pump shouldn't bloody fail as this is the third replacement of the same model for the same type of failure.

I think one of those pumps is used in the EK pump/res combo im about to get back.

 

will look at different brands if I get another failure...got my chinese no brand pump/res and it works fine. I doubt it fills the huge radiator to the top cause it has like no flow though but the rig doesn't over heat like it did with the EK pump.
