theirs no such thing as compatibility  issue's or region in the pc world , hell even the power supply is universal :)

but before you buy :

1- check if your country have taxes when you import parts , because in my country we dont have taxes .

2- sometime you may get DOA(Dead on arrival )so RMA may cost you sending and also receiving again .

3- theirs no warranty   unless if they say they cover world wide , like panasonic !

hope it helps .

Hi Guys, Just been playing around with computer parts working out what to build and realised parts in the USA are alot cheaper... a build i put together in AUD that came in at 2300 worked out to be 1700 using parts from the USA. Do any of you guys import your parts? Can there be compatability issues or any other issues doing this?? Thanks :)

Hi Guys, posted on here a few days ago regarding myself and a few mates all building gaming PC's. This weekend we went out and did some research and price comparisons. A little bit of feed back from our experience: 1. We had a great expierience with centrecom. Friendly staff very helpful spent 30 minutes helping us comparing parts and designing a PC within our budget limits. They reccommended the following: - Intel I7 4770 8MB LGA 1150 - GIGA GA - H87M D3H HDMI - 8gb Kingston DDR3 - 2TB WD 20EZRX GREEN INTELLIPOWER 64mb - SAMSUNG 840 PRO 128GB SSD - PIONEER DVDR- 220 LBKS - GTX780 - 800W coolmaster - TTI Overseer RX1 CASE - ASUS MX279H 27 inch (unsure about what monitor to go for to optimize our graphics card) We managed to get a deal for the price of $2000 2. Our second experience was with MSY, we didnt have much success here. Infact we showed them a quote and they actually went up on the prices so they basically defeated the purpose on the price matching so in our experience we had a bad experience here. I will not quote the prices as it was worse than any other quote. 3. PCDIY was our third experience, they had very good customer service and spent about an hour with us and recommended what they thought would benefit our needs regarding gaming. So far centrecom has been the best to price match our other quotes. Our questions are this if you could help us 1) Is our build okay? any changes or suggestions to parts? 2) Is there anywhere else that anybody can recommend in terms of purchasing parts for a more competitive price? Thanks in advance lads.

Hi guys, New to the forum looking to build a Gaming PC for on a budget of $2000-$2500 with a couple of mates (all build one each). First time doing this and still learning about all the parts, prices and whats compatible etc. Can anyone steer us in the right direction for the sort of comp we could build on this budget and what parts to use? Ive heard its bad to bottleneck on parts and buy a top end graphics card and skimp on other parts as they wont be able to support the graphics card is this true? Can anyone recommend hardware to build a top end computer on this budget? Thanks in advance..

in a nutshell is it fair to say their both fairly similar units which arnt going to dissappoint either way you go and it comes down to personal preference?

mate the money doesnt phase me that much. Id rather pay 200 extra dollars and get a better system seeings im going to have it for a long time. Get use to it coz prices arnt about to drop and i garantee you the new nexbox will be up in the same bracket. They are only going to keep getting more expensive.

thanks for that analysis. Im tilting strongly toward the ps3. Just not sure about its online capabilities! Are they very good? Heard the XBOX one is awsome. I want to do alot of stuff online aka play in tournaments etc, is the ps3 still good for this?  as good as the xbox?
