Ah i must have chose the wrong one in the build - i actually purchased the 240R thank god. I Had to double check :p

Yeah I just ordered my new pc build - got a 1000W Gold PSU that has the connections required. So - No major issues with connecting the gpu if it's bought in the states and sent to australia?

So I've seen a few online pieces claiming that Australia won't get any Founders Edition Cards from NVidia and we will have to buy the Third party stuff. Which is fine, i guess - But i can't seem to find any type of specs on said cards - Would we expect these cards to be much bigger than the...

Doubtful that PCIE 4.0 will give any huge benefit, from everything i've read 2080ti's don't even utilize the full 3.0. I can't see PCIE 4.0 giving such a substantial boost in performance that Everyone jumps to AMD for it which would then force Intel into releasing MOBO's with it early.. The...

Thanks for all the help man, really appreciate it - I've ordered everything but the GPU and although was skeptical about waiting for the 3x series, after watching the reveal and seeing how potentially can have the card much earlier than NOV (i thought it would be like next year, could still be...

Unsure, all I've been reading is that the z490-A doesn't have a heat sink like the z490-f... I ended up getting the z490-a anyway as i figured I'd have to remove the heat sink to install the cpu cooler? Will the i710700k bottle neck with the 3080? Will the i710700k bottle neck with my old 1070...

The Screen I've ordered. With a 3080 and i7-10700k - will i have any issues? The Full Build - GPU will be the 3080 as soon as i can get it - will currently be using my old 1070 for time being. Edit: I've added colours to the links but not showing up for me, the bold text is the link.

PSU for 2080 i think is 750w minimum, so you'd probably want atleast an 850 to be 100% safe - I'm in the middle of making my build and decided to now wait for the 3080 (after almost pulling trigger on the 2080ti) and i'm upgrading my PSU from an 860 plat to a 1000W plat. better to be safe than...

Best Case Scenario (You sell your 2070 a few days before 17th of sept, and you get a purchase for a 3080: Delivery lets say a week so you're out of a GPU for almost 2 weeks) Worst Case Scenario (You sell your 2070 in a few days, have to wait 2 weeks to purchase a 3xxx - miss out, have to wait...

will a i7-10700k bottle neck a 3080?

So I have decided to wait for the 3080 haha. Hopefully i can snag one on 17th. If the 3090 was a little cheaper, i'd have gotten that but, it's not double the performance of the 3080 so can't justify the extra $$ (Even though i was about to drop $1900 odd on the 2080ti). Now we know some info...

Ah right, thanks for that info. I'm unsure on what the difference between the ASUS Prime Z490-A and the ASUS TUF GAMING Z490 Plus(wifi) is other than to obvious fact that the TUF mobo has built in wireless. From what i could tell the specs seemed pretty identical, am i missing something? Would...

Yeah, i'm probably going to end up just going with a 20 series tbh, who knows how long it will be before we really can get our hands on a 30series. Think this setup will fit in the case?

Yeah I see the point in waiting for the 3000 series, Which I am waiting for paper release to see prices and potential distribution dates but i somehow think we won't get our hands on these new GPU's until next year some time maybe middle of the year considering the whole COVID-19 situation and...

Did you get a chance to look at the new build Dark? Think all will be compatible and fit in the case? Forsee any problems that could arise?
