~$1843 at this time.
I made my own choices for the AIO and the PSU. The AIO because I'm not sure what OEM Aftershock are using, and PSU isn't listed. (I picked the same one as the NZXT site is configuring though)
So uhh, leave about 1.2k for the custom panels, assembly, testing and delivery.
Although what really concerned me was the amount of corners cut in the build.
Gigabyte mobo (This is a personal bias, albeit one that many may share)
Arc GPU (I'm a bit mixed on Arc at the moment, between having a AV1 encoder but relying on DXVK for better performance on DX9 titles)
Fairly cheap Corsair DDR4
Kingston NV2 as a boot drive (This is a budget Gen 4 drive that is worse than a decent Gen 3)
Unlisted PSU
AIO that's only available from Aftershock themselves (Unknown OEM)Guess this PC is really just built for esports titles like csgo which they are running for dreamhack
Let's go! Good luck all!
Does anyone from OzB actually win these?
Probably not if you’re spamming entries across several gleam giveaways as gleam will make your entries invalid across the contests.
Yes they certainly do. Random example https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/742625
I've also won PC from JW Computers last year that used gleam as the entry method. Gotta be in it to win it.
Its my first time using gleam to enter and you're definitely right.
All the components are sub-parts :/
Definitely not a dream computer but thanks for sharing - and it's free for the winner.Thank you for sharing, BargainsGrabber.
Nice, thanks as always OP
