Well my moved hasnt gone as smoothly, the shipping company are looking for over 1000 euro to ship my PC, So I need to setup a system quick over here, until I can have the parts shiped across individually.

Anyone have any sites???

Im looking at

http://www.umart.com.au
http://www.computeralliance.com.au/

If anyone has any other sites great.

Also has anyone got a 7600 what are they like performance wise. Im not talking those crap tests they do online, Im talking proper day to day use. I need something to pass me over until I get my GFX cards over here.

www.itwarehouse.com.au are probly my highest rated


www.pcmaniacs.com.au <---- this place has alot more parts, but the guy who runs it is a real jerk, he sent me the wrong parts and then tried to blame me saying i didnt know good parts when i saw them -_-

www.eyo.com.au <----- bunch of good guys, they shipped out a part for me on christmas eve in an emergency and even gave me 30% off because it was christmas.

thats pretty much the only 3 i know :)

I have two friends with a 7600. They do very good. I played on there computer with it, and just used it for anything. It does fine. So I wouldn't worry about it at all.

Ronan,
I have a 7600 GT CO and I must say it is a very nice card. I bought it at newegg
www.newegg.com for around $200. The only thing that might bother you is the card is on the louder side, but it does not bother me that much. Great card overall.

As far as shipping costs I know what you mean. When I took my 6800 out to replace with the 7600, I decided I'd give it away to someone, one of the guys I was going to give it to was in Brazil, and the shipping from the US was going to be around $175!

also consider signing up on OCAU (www.overclockers.com.au) for sponsor specials, and trade forums

finally there is nintek (www.nintek.com.au) they have enthusiast brands, but they are being dodgey with their service atm

I never reccomended it to him...just stated where I bought it from, and Newegg is a great site, even if he can't buy it from them he can still use it for research or whatever.
