What Made You Think It Was A Good Idea To Type Like This?

 

Well, I had to sell my DSi and two games last year to buy a new FX-6300 since my Phenom II x4 was about to die. Here I am now, not a year later, planning a conversion to Intel.

I saved up for 12 years to get my main rig (I only bought it when it looked like I could hit the sweet spot, though the GTX 970 isn't quite what I thought I was buying).

My X58 setup back in 2009. Lasted me for 5 years and it I don't regret saving for it even one bit!

I saved up around $1100 for it (no GPU included since I bought the GPU earlier).

Back in 2010, I started saving up for an iPad. By 2011, I was able to get one and was looking between the iPad 2 and a refubed iPad 1. Luckily, I went with an iPad 2. The support for the iPad 1 ended with iOS 5 while support for the iPad 2 continues to today (albeit not great).

My arsenal: i7-9700k Gaming Rig, an iPhone, and Stupidity.

Well, start saving. You can only truly appreciate something when you save up for it and buy it yourself.

I'm saving up for a K70 Keyboard, a mouse mat that will cover my whole desk, a better office/gaming chair and after all that, a better GPU. I only work once per week so it takes me forever to get these stuff :C
