Quick Comments

TADivinity:

I like to say i had input into this baby :)

[Fadey]

The m18x came with 2x 500gb SSH's , they are only like $110 each if that , the 240gb ocz vertex 3 was like $500+ tho. The m18x was all up about $4200 before the ocz hdd i added to it my self but because im getting it via work (tax free , gst free , 12% off raa code xD) comes to just under 2400.

Lol dur.. Math fail from me. Thats what i meant.

OOOOOOO nice link. I'm now scrolling through there seeing if they have cheaper options than Netplus, a shop local to me.

The rig I plan on building is basically the high end gaming build from build-gaming-computers.com/with alterations to suit my budget (feel free to criticise as it may help me make the right choices but im certain on the asus sabertooth p67 motherboard).

At the moment I'm using an asus notebook N61Jq series:
Intel i7 Q720 @ 1.6ghz (2.8ghz turbo mode)
4g ram (2x 2g sticks that I want to upgrade)
500gb seagate hdd 5400rpm
ATI radeon hd 5730
Windows 7, 64x bit
Sc2 razer peripherals: spectre, marauder and banshee (I place the marauder keyboard on top of the built in keyboard :P)


It used to run and still can at times, sc2 on ultra settings. ($1299 off eBay)

I want to get a ssd to replace the hdd in my current laptop but will probably just get one and put it in the laptop until the tower is ready for it.

MSY are -the- cheapest place in Aus... unless your budget is pushing $2K that motherboard will eat too much into upgrading something else, imo.

I like the whirlpool knowledge base for really good budget gaming builds (http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/rmp_sg_...ming_configs_1)

Dunno about *the* cheapest. I know of a shop in my area, only a local store, but still. [url=www.netplus.com.au[url] has cheaper prices on all the parts, such as motherboard and cpu's.

But it looks like in terms of coverage and price, MSY are definitely brilliant.

Mine is old, minus the GPUS.

x2 Intel X2-M SSD
x3 WD VelociRaptor 600gb (raid 0)
i7920 - 4.6ghz
X58 SLI Classified (evga)
x2 580gtx 3GB
24gb RAM (some corsair 2000mhz low latency crap)
x3 27" samsung S27A950D (120hz is all I'm after really, 3D can be fun though)

I am however waiting for the Evga Super Record 3, 12 RAM slots, capable of running 4 dual GPUs and two CPUS. That's when i'll buy the 3 projectors and have them running as one huge 'screen'

My desktop is pretty much this but NVIDIA 560ti cards instead. Might update them soon.
Also I have an nzxt phantom. Probably overkill on the case
