    Prices taken from MSY. GTX670 price is based off the previous Leadtek/ASUS bargains on OzBargain. Of course you have to add shipping for those which is ~$15 I believe. Overall not a bad bargain, could be much much worse. :P This one is essentially free assembly with a discount on parts which you can then put towards paying for shipping.

    • Shwayne on 17/06/2013 - 12:35

      The obvious issue is that you can't upgrade parts.

      I'd steer away from cheap PSU's and would probably want to bump the CPU up to the unlocked model.

      Decent price if you couldn't care less about over-clocking and you're happy with the line-up.

      It's not a great PSU, but you could do a lot worse. Reviews on the Litepower 450 seems good. Can't say much about the other OEM stuff TT bundles with their cases though. http://www.overclockers.com.au/wiki/Thermaltake_PSUs

      • polol on 17/06/2013 - 11:29

        Thermaltake is a reputable brand. They're just cheaper. Antec/Seasonic PSUs just pack a bigger punch for the same wattage rating and generally have a higher efficiency rating (this is pretty gimmicky). This accounts for the cost difference.

        It's not like Antec vs SHAW, which are horribly built and are known to fail/explode.

        EDIT: that page was last updated in 2007 and was referring to PSUs from as far back as 2003 era.

    • Shwayne on 17/06/2013 - 12:36

      You're right, even on that build I'd invest another $60 in the PSU.

      • yargnairod on 17/06/2013 - 12:22

        This. "ultra" is just some arbitrary setting defined by the devs. Some "ultra" settings supersample and then downsample which is ridiculously taxing on hardware

    • [Deactivated] on 17/06/2013 - 11:51

  • JayCeeJay on 17/06/2013 - 11:22

    [off-topic] Out of curiousity, will this beat PS4?

    • Hardstuck Silver 2 on 17/06/2013 - 11:31
      +1

      i'm not an expert, but I think you're comparing apples to oranges in a sense that a PS4 is a dedicated console for just gaming, and has all its parts specifically designed for that purpose where as a PC has all these components added that allow you to play games but also allows you to do other things. For that flexibility, its going to cost more, and be a little less stable (in some cases) compared to PS4 in the same sense as iOS vs android. So it's hard to do a straightforward comparison in that sense. I'm moving away from xbox to PC because I also do photo and video editing, and I can knock down two birds with one stone.

      But if you're asking whether PC is better than PS4, then you're opening pandora's box.

      • JayCeeJay on 17/06/2013 - 12:06

        You're right, I should of mentioned comparing the gaming aspect.

        PS4 specs:
        Single-chip custom processorCPU: x86-64 AMD 'Jaguar' 8 cores
        GPU: 1.84 TFLOPS, AMD Radeon

        Memory
        GDDR5 8GB

        Hard Disk Drive
        Built-in 500GB

      • CarbonTwelve on 17/06/2013 - 12:19
        +2

        You can't exactly say the PS4 has all its parts specifically designed for the purpose of gaming, given that it's using a desktop derived CPU, desktop derived GPU, and RAM designed for desktop GPUs.

    • krisspy on 17/06/2013 - 11:48
      +1

      yes.
      - ps4's apu was quoted 1.8 Tflops, which is near the 7870/660ti.
      - limited to 1080p for games
      - no oc

      But then this all depends on how games are developed and ported. But raw power, pc hands down.

      • CarbonTwelve on 17/06/2013 - 12:22
        +1

        FWIW, this system doesn't have any meaningful OC either. But I agree even without OC this will have more raw power, and given how close the next gen consoles are to desktop hardware I'd be surprised if the optimisations gained from focusing on that hardware don't benefit PC users as well.

    • [Deactivated] on 17/06/2013 - 11:53

      Within 1 year of PS4 release most games on this PC will only run under low/med, 2 years even worse

      Games for consoles are tuned heavily, PC games have a lot of overheads including drivers, OS and unpredictable hardware

      • Letrico on 17/06/2013 - 12:17

        EDIT: I think PS4 will still run games on med/high. A massively tweaked high.

      • samfisher5986 on 17/06/2013 - 13:12
        +4

        This is no longer the case with the X86 CPU's and ATI Video cards in the new consoles.

        The #1 reason the PC and Console hardware does not match up is the resolution.

        Playstation 3/Xbox 360: 1024x600 = 614400 pixels
        PC: 1920x1080 = 2073600 pixels

        PC has 3x more pixels to render.

        Console: 30fps
        PC: 60fps is normally what is wanted. Even old computers can achieve 30fps in many games.

        So in total a PC needs 6x more power just to run it at the resolution and fps you want.

        Then you add the fact that most consoles only run at low/medium quality, PC players want high/very high.

        Its unfortunate so little people know this.

          I'm not sure where you are getting your information from. Almost all PS3 and XBOX 360 games released in the last few years are 1280x720 with some 1920x1080 titles (mainly PSN/XBLA). Lots of 60fps games too:

          http://www.giantbomb.com/60-fps-on-consoles/3015-3223/

        • samfisher5986 on 17/06/2013 - 18:29
          +2

          I just googled it, turns out it was the call of duty games that run at 600p.

          You do realise that 720p is hardly close to 1080p in terms of processing needed.

          And the 1920x1080 as you mentioned is PSN/XBLA, basically 2D games mostly.

          My point still stands very clearly.

        • dazweeja on 18/06/2013 - 11:43
          -2

          Except that for games that need it - like fighting games and shooters - that benefit from 60fps, they are actually running at 720p/60fps on consoles so the difference in processing power is much closer to 2x to 6x.

          Of course, PCs need more processing power because 1080p is much more common - I'd never deny that - but your point was grossly exaggerated. I was just pointing out the facts - I'm sorry that PC fanboys feel the need to neg a completely factual comment. Insecure much?

        • samfisher5986 on 18/06/2013 - 13:37

          The games that run at 720p/60fps run perfectly on PC's anyway because of all the processing room spare.

          That doesn't change the fact that a PC has 6x more processing power, just because some games don't use it it doesn't make it untrue.

          Also don't forget that consoles run at low/medium, PC users will rarely use these settings.

    • yargnairod on 17/06/2013 - 12:18
      +1

      It's technically superior in that the CPU is greater than the 8 core jaguar and 670 > 7850+ that's in the PS4. If the same game was released on both platforms due to optimisations I would think the PS4 would be better but who knows?

      This would be fine for photoshopping and lightroom, but I'd recommend getting in contact with cpl and getting 16gb Ram. Photo editing is heavy on the ram and cpu, rather than the graphics card.

      • Shwayne on 17/06/2013 - 12:39
        +1

        8GB is more than enough unless you have 400 or so 20 Megapixel RAW's open and no space left on your SSD to page against.

    • Hardstuck Silver 2 on 17/06/2013 - 12:23

      I'm pretty sure the RAM demand is also fairly dependant on the catalogue size… (possibly).
      On lightroom 4 I have never exceeded 2Gb ram taken up whereas my friends takes way more.
      Every time I go out shooting, I make a new catalogue.
      So the largest catalogue I have is probably around 500 photos whereas he puts them all into a single catalogue and I'm pretty sure thats why his takes up so much more RAM.

    I've previously had major issue with getting warranty service from cpl. And I,m not the only one

    I bought a hauppage 2200 tv tuner card from them in store. Even before leaving the store. I won't out the the item was used. . I demanded a new one. And was they were all the same. I asked that if it didn't work. Could I return it for a refund. This was declined .. I then asked for my money back and was forced to fill out an rma' form for an item they had not left their shop. Took me over an hour to get my money back.. I then bought the same it sealed and new from pcdiy……

    There's a few major threads in whirlpool about people taking them to small claims…. They basically have worked out that people can't be bothered. Or the costs in time and effort aren't worthwhile

    There's only two places I refuse to purchase from. CPL and Megabuy …..

          To be perfectly honest - your first link tells us that there are around 10 threads started about them every year - with the oldest being 2004 (either way, we know that they have existed for, at the very least - 10 years, without doing further research)

          Your 2nd link is pretty ragey, some horror stories there

          3rd link - a little more raging there

          From my POV, they seem to be a MSY-type store.. with past horror stories, it looks like they're improving through out the past year or two. Your post on whirlpool: "2011-Nov-1, 3:19 pm", just saying, it's been 2 and a half years. I'm not sure how relevant that should be for today's buyers. Definitely worth noting, but I'm not sure it should be a valid negative vote on this deal.
          Also, their rep here seems EXTREMELY knowledgeable.
          See here for their OzBargain history: http://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/cplonline.com.au
