• 1k Build, WA-Aus (Compatibility check?)
    0 replies, posted
My old desktop blew up a while ago and I've finally gotten the permission for a new one. This is the build I'm currently looking at, I'm relatively new to PC building so if someone could double-check that everything is compatible I would appreciate it.

If there's somewhere cheaper in WA, Australia please say so. I could probably re-use my optical drives from my old build. My monitors are 1920x1080 and 1440x900, secondary may be increasing since there's a spare lying around somewhere. Should be able to re-use my old case. I have 5.1 speakers. I think I'll be able to get an OEM windows 7 from my uncle. I don't play games often and they're not normally high-end but I'd like this computer to be future proof as I only ever "upgrade" when my computer is completely dead. Most of the games I play chug along on low-med on my laptop so I assume they'll be fine. (ManiaPlanet, Sims, G-mod, Dota2, etc..) My university course involves lots of programming, technical drawings in AutoCad/Inventor and other related stuff but I don't think that'll be much of a problem since they run fine on my laptop. I have a feeling I've missed something.
