Regarding the hardware again, I have to agree with Adrian. How about this, go ahead to Aussie first and then buy everything there. It would be even better because the conversion rate will be towards your favor if you are earning Aussie dollars and you get better products. But the decision is yours to make. Go ahead and see the world. Good luck !

Reputation: 24 Rep Power: 11 | Hey, if you are in the States, I am sure that you can get all those good stuff, but I am not too sure if the stuff you are looking for are out in Malaysia yet. Well according to Chai, many of the new stuff is not out in Malaysia. So you better check it out before you make any configurations. Actually, if you really want the stuff real bad, I can get it for you and ship it back by FedEX. It will be pretty expensive, I am sure but you will get the latest and greatest stuff around!

Reputation: 1673 Rep Power: 32 | "also whaddya think ? in aus, every part is like +RM 100...so im also thinking to buy things like cpu/mobo/ram there (as they are critical n can get hurt from OC) for sure i think ill get the wd 80gb 8mb hdd as i need to bring some data over...and also looks like ill get the Radeon 9500 Pro....if not in time then...the Albatron Ti4200 Pro (the one which can o/c past a Ti 4600)..it costs RM700 from robyncom (the only kl shop i have prices from) " While it might be Rm100 more, at least it's easier for you to RMA from them. furthermore, there's lot more choice there in AUS i think. So i guess it's better for you to get the normal stuffs like hard disk, cdrw, etc from here. |
