Go to solution Solved by stconquest,

If it's required then yes, but I'd just like a list that ships to Aus, is silent enough so my microphone doesn't pick it up and is under 2k, thx.

 

My original build is exactly that.

 

I made a balls to the wall build here, it is ready for a second GTX 980Ti if you just love spending money:

I seriously recommend the Phanteks Enthoo Pro.  It comes with large fans(quiet) and is very well built.  I consider it the best value at it's price range. 

 

This is a good case, but you are spending $50 solely for aesthetics:  http://au.pcpartpicker.com/part/nzxt-case-can450ww1

Thanks for he videos :)

Also, with the cases including the fans wouldn't that exclude the fans in the part picker untimately bringing down the price anyway?

You are welcome.

 

You lost me on the fans thing.  The reason I like picking cases like the Enthoo Pro is that it comes with enough airflow to get you started.  A big 200mm front intake fan, and a 140mm in the rear (exhaust).  The bigger the fans, the quieter it can be.

oh, sorry, I thought the original case didn't include fans, thanks for all your help, I'll try and grab this for Christmas and build it (I'll tell you how it goes) thank you so much for all ur help!

Would the alien looking cases be as silent as the original or would it be a bit louder? (I just can't stop asking questions can I? :P)

Can I just ask what you mean by this? I don't quite understand how it can get messier inside cities

Also, is this design loud? Because I'm planning on doing yet on it

 

Fallout 4 uses Gameworks and therefore is immediately optimised for NVIDIA cards such as the GTX 970. The game does experience quite a drop in fps when in combat or when entering a city on a 390 however.

 

 

Just turn off Gameworks features such as god rays and it should run fine. Or maybe when AMD gets around to upgrading their drivers.
