Thanks, yeah true. I agree it is probably worth the saving however for some reason the overclocked ones seem to be a boatload cheaper than the stock ones in NZ . For example the cheapest stock speed one I can see is a Palit one for $370 NZD. No idea who Palit is. Next 'reliable' brand at stock...
From what I can tell the MSI GeForce N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II/OC 1GB is the cheapest at $365 NZD, followed by the Asus GeForce ENGTX560 TI DCII/2DI/1GD5 1GB ($399 NZD) or EVGA GeForce GTX 560 Ti SC HDMI Dual-DVI ($399). The EVGA has the fastest clock speeds. Shame you can't get the 448 core...
Yep, turning left and right e.g. using the pedals in a plane/helicopter.
I have opted for a cheap Logitech Extreme 3D Pro which has throttle, rudder and joystick all in one. I think that will be ok. I'm really keen to try a joystick out for BF3 and HAWX2 at any rate.
Have spotted a EVGA...
Many thanks for the replies coolpurplefan and mfenn.
Funnily enough the cheapest RAM at 1.5V is the G.Skill Ripjaws X DDR3 PC12800/1600MHz CL9 2x4GB which is a bit more expensive but I've swapped that out, I'm guessing the CPU only supports 1.5v. Good catch thanks. :thumbsup:
Probably quite...
1. PC will be used for Battlefield 3, business work with graphics (logos, web development etc) so the color on the monitor needs to be as accurate as possible
2. Price limit is $2800 NZD for everything incl monitor which is $2200 USD plus or minus $100.
3. Buying from New Zealand (I'll lookup...
OK great, thanks Axon. I'll agree with you that I may not have any problems with either AMD or Nvidia mobile cards these days but the Catalyst Control Centre interface drives me nuts which is still making me lean towards the Nvidia solution.
I guess AMD have come a long way since I last checked them out. You can in fact now download 6990 mobile drivers direct from their website. ;)Previously they made you download them from Toshiba or the OEMs website which was never updated. Eventually I ended up using Omega drivers or modding the...
Ok so I need a recommendation for a laptop for Battlefield 3. My current machine is 3 years overdue for an upgrade and not too worried about how much it costs.
Official Recommended BF3 specs:
OS: WINDOWS 7 64-BIT
PROCESSOR: QUAD-CORE CPU
MEMORY: 4 GB
HARD DRIVE: 20 GB
GRAPHICS CARD -...
Hi all,
I'm trying to design a new gaming system for my younger brother, most likely will run it at stock speed. The monitor will be bought separately but the box and peripherals have to come under 2000 NZD (1500 USD). I've had an initial go at trying to configure something up. I get the...
