Posted a thread over at the Computer Lounge forums asking for ncase owners to hola about what cards they're using. No bites, BUT, Computer Lounge have said they will be getting these afterall - https://www.asus.com/us/Graphics_Cards/TURBOGTX970OC4GD5/ due to quite a few people asking. No ETA though.

YUS!!!

Since posting this, I haven't received any sort of a follow up from CL when I asked if I was able to put my name down for a "pre-order" despite posting in that same thread and emailing them directly. Sent Playtech an email and they have their supplier listed as having them in stock on the 11th of July. They'll follow up with a Facebook announcement when they're available. No price indication as of yet though.

Thought CL use to be rather spot on with this type of thing? They dropping the ball a bit?

They should just get a heap of the cards in and offer some SFF builds.

If you are happy waiting a month or two Nvidia prices should drop due to 980ti release after retailers stop milking the prices

Shiiiiit. Y U DO DIS AMD.

I was sure I wanted nVidia this time around.

$389USD for the R9 390X comes up to roughly the same pricing as the 970GTX. And like the article says, when you throw in higher performing VRAM, along with double the amount, the price starts to look enticing.


No AMD for you! You not running a house sized case anymore to much heat,that cards a rebrand of the 290X, AMD drivers are shitstain they cancelled mantle because shit.

http://www.computerlounge.co.nz/components/componentview.asp?partid=23135 Problem solved if the other NCase users are not having any heat issues.


p.s if you get AMD will wait the 3months before you throw toys and say "told you so" :) Current friend is selling his 2 x 290x's to get a 980ti. Wasn't happy at all with them

Length is 11".

I've always liked EVGA.

Thanks for the link, Xeno. Will check out.

I'm also looking at the mini 970 edition, turns out it performs along side the full sized 970's - http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/gigabyte_geforce_gtx_970_oc_mini_itx_review,29.html


Follow up with the EVGA 970, The mini 970 may perform alongside full sized cards but how does it perform in an actual mini-itx case? You don't have size restrictions so would gimp yourself by using it

Windows is on.

Pretty impressed with the onboard Intel 4600 HD GPU. Am able to run WiDi (wireless display) to my Sony Bravia.

Quick as lightning, 7 second boot from a cold start on the Samsung 850 Evo SSD. CPU idles at 23.C on the silent fan/pump profile.

Looking at grabbing this - http://www.msi.com/product/vga/GTX-970-GAMING-4G.html#hero-overview as it's the next best thing to not being able to get a blower style card. You're able to control the fan speed of each individual fan which is awesome, considering the card will have a 120MM Corsair blowing on it as well. Hopefully Computer Lounge can get one in.



The problem with using a non blower style card in these type of builds (mini-tx) is all the gpu heat dump inside the case. You would want bottom fan intake and the 2 x side panels fans (including cpu cooler) exhausting. Give it a shot the 9 series nvidia cards are super cool regardless so you should be ok.......... My recommendation is still blower style gpu but do some research Other people would be in the same boat as you.

This game looks good, but Early Access ... ewwww.

What's the state of the game at the moment?

The game is the most fun I've had in awhile. However it is not optimized yet so you will have low fps no matter what system you have. For some this is game breaking but I DGAF. Gameplay over graphics.

Is the server down? Can't find it in list

I'm having the same issue :(

Getting my 25-30fps average with superb gameplay (tamed a sabertooth last night) :), Server hopefully getting updated to 171.1

Unotelly DNS. Would a VPN be more stable?
Erm, they work differently.

VPN will hold a tunnel open between you and the remote server, and will shuffle packets in and out of that tunnel.

SmartDNS changes the endpoint of domains, the 'fake endpoint' shuffles packets from you to the real endpoint, acting as a middle man.

Both rely on the internet.
VPN is considered more secure.
VPN traffic is impossible to shape between the client and server.
SmartDNS requires VERY little setup.

Take your pick

Waiting for XENO to offer secure dns setup for gobbies..... Have been using Unotelly and their DNS Set-up because easy in flat environment for them wifi's.

Yes, but that still doesn't explain why certain devices work first time when another won't

I am setting a friends firth stick up soon, be interesting to see how that works, it's considerably more powerful than ATV, smart tv etc.

What are you using to access netflix americano? VPN or DNS

Stinkfist.

CL wont be getting the ASUS card due to no interest from the market for blower fans.


Ahh the peasants of the world with XL/ATX sized cases ruining it for those with M-itx builds. Any others using non blower cards in the n-case?

Also you may still be able to find reference 980's or 970's from MightyApe.... not sure if I would go down that route (some comments on the listed cards having incorrect specs for cards received)

BUUUTTTT CORSAIR!

Totally agree with ML though.

Corsair does = +20 wank factor with build log photos...... BUT Riis cable management gone be so bad never see the brands :/

Wasn't intending slut shaming. Perhaps I should re-word.

The guy who wrote the original piece on the ad is who I believe is kicking up a fuss over nothing. His original story reads like a massive creep-fest.

The last sentence Until you look at her very public Facebook profile - multiple photos of her getting her tits out on and off campus. Kinda gives the impression Lias has commented on. Not sure if rustling jimmies over the sleeze criticising the advert? Or trying to open debate on the girl's response relative to other photography work that can be deemed titillating?

Tis' bitter sweet.

Tomorrow I order RAM and optical drive (I have a large collection of physical media, and am still a fan of it over digital distribution).

I get to see my machine up and running (minus a GPU, that will come in the next few weeks, O/B GPU FTL) but I also have to spend a few hours on cable management once everything is plugged in - le sigh. Never done cable management in a case this friggin' small.

Haven't decided on RAM yet, will probably be a 5 min decision once I look at Computerlounge.co.nz. $250 budget for 16GB.



Decision made  = http://www.computerlounge.co.nz/components/componentview.asp?partid=24219 I have the corsair stuff but brand whore. Same timings & speed $40 price reduction to allow increased grapefruit purchases..... (or increased budget for the right gpu)

What config have you gone with fans for exhaust/intake? Personally I would have both corsair reds intake and the cpu AIO exhausting.

Will look good with that Asus 970

This: http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/TURBOGTX970OC4GD5/

But I've no idea when it's going to be available in NZ and I'm not ballsy enough to order via Amazon.

I want a 970, so my options are the lesser clocked ASUS or Gigabyte dwarf models of the 970 that have exhaust based coolers, or end up getting a 970 that just has an open cooler.


It's available in Aus https://www.ple.com.au/ViewItem.aspx?InventoryItemId=619456 surely a local supplier should be able to make a special order for gobbies?
