  1. Most of the EVGA cards that I can find that I can get in Australia are at least AUD$50 more. Is that worth it? Also, is this PSU fine for this setup?
  2. This is my first PC Build. Just want to check if it is alright. I'm aiming for a quiet build with a black and orange colour scheme. I am in Australia for reference. It's mainly for gaming (for example battlefield 1, WOW, gears, skyrim + mods, fallout + mods, mass effect, and a bunch of indie steam games that are very pretty), and Uni (browsing with a heap of tabs open, LaTeX, Matlab, python, Java, etc). I would like to try overclocking in the future. I already have a 1440p monitor. Any recommendations for cheaper or better quality parts would be great. I am also looking for keyboard and mouse suggestions. My overall budget is about AUD$2000 (including peripherals).

  3. I've been playing a rogue in D&D recently, so I'm all about that Stealth. Seriously though, the stealth would be amazing for uni; I wouldn't have to carry around several exercise books to have my notes for class, and I wouldn't have to choose between lugging around heavy text books, or trying to navigate and read the pdfs on my phone. Plus I'm in the process of choosing parts for my first build (eep!), so hopefully I should have a pretty sweet gaming rig.
