Was looking for some computer parts and came across this sale on centrecom.
Some deals that stood out were:
and more
Update
Seems the price has now increased to $18. I'll update this to see if I receive the fans.
The current status of my order is "picking" but I did order some other things in addition to the fans.
I have these for my watercooled desktop. As it can get quite loud near top speed, make you have some way of controlling the speed. Either via fan controllers or the PWM function (i.e. plug it to your PWM enabled mobo)
Pre built centrecom pc looks to be good value for $399:

Not really. They're using 2 year old CPUs although it's only a 5~10% difference from current gen.
CPU: i3 3240 $120
Mobo: Intel H67BL $50
GPU: Nvidia 1GB GeForce 210 $30
- Onboard-graphics is probably better
RAM: 4GB 1333MHz $40
HDD: 1TB 7200RPM $60
ODD: DVD Drive $20
Case: Thermaltake Chaser A31 $100
- The case is disproportionately expensive compared to the entire build.
PSU: Thermaltake LitePower 600W $70
- I wouldn't trust the 600W marking on this. Don't know why this junk is at this price.
Total: $490
This rig will play older games (5 years+) or maybe it's meant for flash games.
yeah - piss that TT stuff off
$62 for case+psu -> http://www.centrecom.com.au/coolmaster-elite-344-blue-420w-u…
if you are gonna go questionable PSU, don't spend $100+$70 :p
Those psu's are not too bad, not brilliant and I wouldn't use one on an i7 but for general i3 or lower use and no large GPU they're fine.
True, for a gaming pc its not worth the value at all. Used as a Media PC or basic PC use Office/Internet it would be more then enough.
Damn BitFenix Phenom for $23!!! TOo bad Sold out…
wow, clayton store is trash, called up literally 5 mins before going into the store to pick up 2x SP120 fans. Dude confirmed on the phone they had 2 left. I arrived 5 mins later, they said they can not find them, even though they should have them. One of the workers that was serving me, had same problem with another customer this morning saying that he couldnt find the fans for them, so i told him to have another look. Other worker that i saw answering the phone asked what he was looking for at the back, and dude just smiled back, seeming like he knew they didnt have it. Waste of time.
He probably took them for himself
Thanks OP! Got two of the SP120 fans, should work great in my case.
i honestly think the fans are mispriced. cant even find them unless you specifically go into case fans
the wpm model is the best compared to the quiet and non-wpm model and yet its going for 9 dollars less for each one?! almost definitely they should be going for 14.50 or 15 if everything else in their store isnt this outrageously priced
Just make sure it is $5 when you go to pick one up, and they don't change the price to $49.50 on you!
(sorry, just sour grapes from this morning!)
its because they are mispriced. you cant find these cheaply at all id honestly pay the shipping to get these because a single one is $22
its the only thing on the site thats 80% off
Nuuu hesitated earlier on whether I needed the fans… Price is back up to $18 now.
Ahh well money not spent is money saved (for another deal) :P.
What the hell, they just changed the price to $18. Happened after I made an account

Fan is back to $18 (+ postage)?
wow this is a fantastic price (if its not a pricing error)
jump on this guys! paid $40 for 2 and they're really great fans
EDIT: shows up at $18 now, must have corrected it
Looks like the fans are back to $18.00 each. Could have been a pricing error?
I got an order receipt and they charged my PayPal account so I don't think so. Centrecom usually jacks the price up on "sales" when things are popular.
maybe i shouldnt have said anything.
Thanks OP! This is a fantastic deal!
Managed to pick up 2 for $17.10 delivered to WA earlier. Hopefully they fulfil! Shame that case was instore only, would have considered grabbing one depending on what the extra postage was. Thanks OP
Damn, i missed it :(
Coulda used a couple of new fans for summer
These guys spam me daily with crap deals - I wonder why they don't mention these awesome deals to their email database
So other than the emails pretty much everyday these guys are pretty good, even thought it was a misspriced I got two of these fans delived for $17 which is pretty good seeing as that would normally cost me 40 bucks
Is there a pick up option?
