  1. Hi, I have recently bought the MSI Optix MAG27C monitor for my PC and I have been using it and its been great however I have been trying to use the crosshair function but am unable to find anyway to get it too work. I have searched the entire internet for assistance but cant find any support for my monitor model. Thanks for any help
  2. Lighting Node Pro is here everything else should be here by tomorrow or Monday.
  3. Thanks, I'll ask if I need anyone's help.
  4. Hi all, After many months of creating PC Parts lists and thinking of a PC that both looks amazing and performs amazing while staying in my budget I have finally come to my final part list and found all parts at great prices. I have just bought all the parts for my new RGB Gaming PC and all parts should arrive within a week. This will be my first ever PC and I am coming from PS4. This will be a big step and I can't wait to game on PC. I am also hoping I will also be building the PC within a week if all goes well especially for a first time builder. Any additional tips for building would be great, also, would someone be able to tell me what drivers I would need to install for my PC as I have no idea as I am new to this. I will add my part list below for you to have a look. I appreciate it if no one would comment on things for me to change in the part list as I have already paid for the parts and can't change them. If there is anything that you like about my build and anything you think I could add in the future feel free to leave a comment. I have gone through many different builds and decided to go with this build due to a 25% off sale on eBay which is the reason I have bought all of the parts that I did. The main reason behind this build is for it to be fully RGB, I also plan on using this PC for high refresh rate 1080p semi-future proof gaming.

  5. @andrewmp6 @TVwazhere Ok, thanks guys, ill buy the case, since I have the budget and it includes the commander pro and ll120 fans which are essential for my RGB build. Thanks
  6. Awesome, would it be worth buying an aftermarket cooler or stick with the included one? thanks
  7. Hi people, I'm building my new RGB PC soon and started to compile my parts list. I was just wondering if I should buy the Ryzen 7 2700x now or wait for the rumored 2800x to be released when the 8c Intel CPU is released. Also, just confirming FreeSync is for AMD GPUs not CPUs, right? Or I'm being dumb. Thanks
  8. Hi people, I am creating my part list for my new RGB PC I will be building soon and was wondering if this case was any good. It includes 3 corsair ll120 RGB fans and the corsair commander pro. Would someone be able to tell me if it is actually a good case in terms of airflow and other things cases should do that I dont know about. This is the case I'm talking about - https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/xVbwrH/corsair-obsidian-500d-rgb-se-atx-mid-tower-case-cc-9011139- the Corsair Obsidian 500d SE Thanks
  9. ok cool, ill stick with the 1060 6gb then
  10. Awesome, thanks for the build, looks good.
  11. Thanks, this is a nice build, I have put together something as well, would you be able to look over it and tell me how it is.

Why did you add what you did in your build? Just wondering. Thanks
  12. just build it off the Australian PCPartPicker, it's just much easier and at least you'll see the cheapest prices. thanks
