Hi Everyone,


 


I was wondering if I can get PC designed for me??


 


Budget & Location - The budget is around $2000 and location is Australia 2330 so $AUD


 


Aim - I want to be able to use this PC for gaming and Audio recording so I will be using Protools which requires 16 GB if RAM things and the games I will be playing will pretty much be anything.


 


Monitors - I will use 2 monitors but maby get a 3rd in the future the monitors are - BenQ EW2440L 24in at 1920 x 1080 2 of those.


 


Peripherals - No need I have keyboard and mouse ETC.


 


Also I would like a corsair case with window and some sleeved cable which I would like to go with a black and white theme.


 


I am upgrading because PC is old and I want a new one as I want to start to do heavy work on Protools and my PC is not capable of running it well.


 


Thanks for the help!   :)


 


Scott

Actually go to Pcpartpicker, select australia (Something tells me you forgot this is AUD and not USD) and filter the PSU's on 850-860W and you will see that the G2 is far from overpriced.

Yeaaah, it really isn't. It's cheaper than the RM850 and the G2 scores higher than the RM850.

Hey everyone thanks for the replys do you think you could also include The corsair 750D I think it is that one. I love the look of that case and windows 7 not 8 also if use could include sleved cables??

 

thanks

 

Scott

 

Much is possible but until it is known if monitors and o/s have to be included in the build it is not possible to answer the question.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

Well the monitors dont have to be included and the OS dose have to be included

 

It is not a Corsair case but I think it will do a better job with the black & white theme. Going with the 750D would add about AU$50 to the cost. The sleeved cables shown are from Newegg and include an approximation of shipping costs, in AU$. You may be able to find the part locally.

There is an all white sleeved cable set for the psu at the bottom of the list (see Other). The cable set that comes with the psu are black-sleeed. So just mix and match the two sets to meet your needs.
