Haha. Karma for laughing at my misfortune 3 weeks in a row. I may have accidentally clicked buy on a new GPU yesterday so should be able to max ACC out  ::)

Also rtx 2070 super up for sale soon  ;D
Cancelled my evga xc3 from ple, 9 weeks later and the queue wasn't even moving. As far as I know those cards haven't been shipping to Australia at all. 1080ti will do for now.

Mwave supposedly had 2 in stock. One said pre orders on the detail page one didn't so we'll see. 3070 and 3080 seems impossible though

Does that mean you ordered a 3090? $$$$

Ummm. Possibly... 2070 super to 3070 or 3080 wasn't enough of a jump. I have a 4k 120hz 43" monitor on the wall I play non sim games on. From what I've seen the 3090 will max out just about anything at 4k and still be over 60 fps

Well the options of in stock and not completely ludicrous price were PNY or Zotak. I've known of PNY and they've been around a while just never had anything of their so went for that one.

Mwave had it on a black friday sale which I didn't expect with 300 bucks off.

I justifyed it to myself in that the 2070 super is still worth a good amount, I work in IT so I'll deduct it on my tax return next year, and my son is about to finish day care and start school next year saving me 400 bucks a fortnight, lol. As for the misses, I've been the sole earner for 12 years so I didn't ask her  ;D

 What Pwr Supply are you going to use? I went for the Cougar GEX Series 850W 80+ Gold Fully Modular Power Supply .

I went for the cheapest 850w they had haha. It was a cougar semi modular one. I read 750w is enough with an i7 but went 850w just incase.
