If necessary, I'll extend the upgrade period, as I've explained before.

 

And here is the current shopping list :

* removed/postponed, due to budgetary concerns

already purchased

 

This would be outside the budget for my summer workstation build, so the money for these will be more limited. Listed in order of priority. More changes coming in the next few hours...

    i've always wanted to get one of those tablet draw pads, but then again i can't draw for sh*t even on paper.

    @Tech_Dreamer I got myself a Wacom Intuos Art Medium a while back and it's pretty good but, paper is cheaper if you just want to doodle or get into drawing.

    Plus, when you go digital you'll also need to learn a bunch of extra stuff so, I'd just stick to paper until you get your bearings.

    Okay - things have changed drastically since I posted this. I'll do an update in a few minutes...

    I might actually end up leaving out the Elgato HD60 Pro at this rate. They haven't gotten back to me about the issues I've been having yet...

    Also looking into a PCI-e over Copper (expansion) solution from Dolphin, in case I end up needing to add more devices in the future. Might not need it initially, though. Because of the free spot that the HD60 Pro probably just made...
