  1. there's somethings that reddit is good for but some places are pretty negative

     

     

    edit: then again im not really a person to talk about people being dicks to each other one of my posts was the background of /r/toosoon for several months (not for the easily offended)

  2. Watched the Announcement, saw the stats and thought yeah a PC will be cheaper xbox is $900 in Aus

     

    all i learned from it is that its good for TV, Sports and call of duty

     

    so i quickly thought about it and chose 

     

    AMD FX-8350 Black Edition 8-Core Processor   $210.00

     

    Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P Motherboard probably should change this $59.99

     

    G.Skill 8GB DDR3 KIT (F3-10600CL9D-8GBNT) $67.72

     

    HIS AMD Radeon HD 7870 2GB Video Card $219.00

     

    Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 3.5" 2TB SATA 6.0Gb/s Hard Drive $95.00

     

    Cooler Master Elite 335U Case $45.00

    TP-LINK TL-WN781ND 150Mbps Wireless Lite N PCI Express WiFi $12.99

     

     

    With a total of $878.89

    (prices from Aus retailer mwave.com.au)

  3. You may want to consider a modular power supply if its within budget, they make things a lot easier to manage inside.  Also the Chaser A31 has a very short front audio cable.  I wasn't able to route it behind the motherboard tray, in fact I was barely able to route it in front of the motherboard, I literally had to cut across the board diagonally, the cable had to go behind the graphics card between the chipset heatsink, and it barely managed to reach.  I'd consider looking online for an internal HD audio cable extension or something.

    thanks for the advice i was most likely going to use the back I/o and not worry about the front anyway

  4. Mainly for gaming and occasional video editing/uploading

    I was thinking

    Corsair GS-800 V2 80+ Bronze Power Supply  probably going a Cougar CMX 850W 80Plus Bronze Modular

    corsair H100i
