Hi all!!
so to the point; I received a $300 AUD prepaid card as a gift.
The gift was given to me to spend on something PC related (long story, and I kinda don't mind that fact)
now point being that I live in Australia so parts usually have very expensive shipping costs so I narrowed my purchase sites down to
FrozenCPU.com, and
PCCaseGear.com

Now just wanted to know, what do you guys think I should do with it?
My current PC:
Z87 Fatal1ty Killer MOBO by ASRock
i7 4770k not OC'd - planning for custom cooling
212x cooler
Kingston Fury X RAM (2x 8GB)
GTX760 SLI 2way
2 x 1tb Harddrives
320GB HDD from my ps3 1tb swap
samsung 840 EVO 120GB SSD
Blu-Ray reader Writer by Pioneer
Tons of white fans
Soundblaster ZX
3 Channel Wireless Card by TP-Link
all inside a CM Storm Trooper

PS: basically what would you do if you loved PC's in every aspect, from Performance to looks
and had $300 to spend on an already good PC?
I was planning of a G27 wheel as I play quite a bit of sim racing on my PlayStation and PC

Sorry if this was too long, so have cookie if you read up to here!

Thats a pretty open question :)  For me I am looking at open loop water cooling systems these days but lack the money for it atm.

There are many Wheels out there these days that are superior to the G27 now. Just look at the arguments id diverse G27 VS XXX in different forums out there. However the G27 has suited my needs for quite some time now, and it is a robust and comfortable Wheel. If you go for the G27 and don't have planned a custom setup for it, I advice you to get one of these:
http://www.wheelstandpro.com/ Instead of having to "build up" the wheel every time I want to use it, I just pick the whole assembly down from the wall where it is stored when I don't use it. It it is stable and surprisingly robust.

Anyhow - good luck with your purchase. :)
