Some opinions:<br>
<br>
Speakers<br>
- Look good. Nice to see they have headphone jacks.<br>
<br>
Mice<br>
- Look nice and simple... I might get one or two myself :)<br>
<br>
HDDs<br>
- MSY lists the 8TB as an "archive" disk -- might have a relatively
low spindle speed.<br>
- A 4TB disk should be sufficient (my steam library fits on one,
with plenty of space to spare)<br>
<br>
Monitors<br>
- No to 4K (overkill for most of our hardware, maybe next year when
we start getting GTX10s)<br>
- I'm not sure about 144Hz, it could be good but it is pricey.<br>
- 1200p is generally nice, but I'm not sure it's worth the extra
cost.<br>
- Freesync sounds nice, but reports are that NVidia cards don't
support it (but the extra update frequency may make the gamers
happy)<br>
<br>
tl;dr: <br>
Smaller HDD, and probably go for the VX2457 monitor<br>

<div>Dear techy UCCers

If any of you read the minutes
from the last months, you would
have seen that committee has
been attempting to organise the
purchase of peripherals for
clubroom computers. Due to
general disorganisation, and the
very real priority that is exam
preparation, committee only just
got around to pricing stuff up
this week.<br>
