Second hand screen ... Make sure you collect it in person and see it running !

I can get the Asus for £500 second hand.

For the sake of £50 I would rather have a new screen and 3 years warranty. The AOC might be cheaper than the Asus when new but you are generally just paying the Asus tax. The two monitors use the same make of panel so probably not much difference under the hood.

Master is the better board with UK RMA, Asus has the better bios and can hit over 4000hz ram speeds

They both have the better bios ? I am guessing you mean better VRM on the Gigabyte

[orbitalwalsh]

Looks solid, post up with how you get on !
Make sure seller will honour RMA for the card if warranty still left

 

[nathanael91]

Will certainly keep you updated. This computer should last me a couple of years. Hopefully the RTX Series won't keep the current prices as it's too expensive now.

Hi guys these fans here are not very quiet are there any others that are quieter for the front of my case?

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x be quiet! Silent Wings 3 120mm High Speed Fan= £19.99

Total: £24.65 (includes shipping: £4.66)​

​

I think 140mm is ok. It just sounds like a mini motor and it's too loud for what I need.

Thanks guys

I thought of these

Noctua 140mm Premium Quiet Quality Case Cooling Fan NF-A14 FLX
Corsair CO-9050047-WW ML Series ML140 Pro LED Red 140 mm

your running high speed versions... they are loud ( prob same sound as an average fan but provide almost triple the static pressure and air flow ) just run them at 70% full speed and they'll be quiter then most whilst pushing more airflow then 70% of fans on the market at the same noise level

Spoiler: i have 10 of them , including the PSU :)

 

[nathanael91]

I don't know how to run them at 70%. Iv tried using gigabyte settings on fan speed as quiet. However nothing changed.
