This card is a little over $1K but doesn't charge import fees where pretty much every other 4070 Super does on Amazon AU: https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0CQTNRTWR?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

Ok that is a contender, does it get slapped with plus GST on order / at entry? Never ordered from Amazon AU.

No it doesn't, every other 4070 Super does though (I was shopping for one last week).  However, I believe technically customs could add GST on it during import, however in my experience if Amazon don't charge it (which they usually do), it just goes straight through.  Someone else might have more knowledge/experience than me on this though.  I just bought something else a couple of weeks ago from Amazon AU that cost just over $1K but didn't incur any import fees.

 

This one is also under $1K including delivery although is temporarily out of stock: https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B0CS197RJM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

For your current GPU try replacing the thermal compound on the GPU may give you a bit more time

Unless you are locked into an old gsync display why not AMD? the 7800XT is on par unless you are ray tracing and its local so CGA/Warranty.

Not really sold on AMD and prefer DLSS over AMDs version as it seems more refined (happy to be corrected) :)

This would do it.

 

Then select Amazon AU.
