If you're wondering, the filter is from snapchat. And yes, I'm immature for using such an agressive filter but I just thought it made the colours pop really good. Pic was taken after a sliding session on wet ground

The seller even threw in a Fiio E07K portable DAC with the purchase of the Thor Silver 8W cable.

Bought a Low Profile HD4350 for my HTPC setup....

And cap it off, a pair of HiFiMan Focus Pads for my just acquired HE4.....much more comfortable and it did affect the sound somewhat.

That's a great car but get some extensions to get the antennas out from behind you case. Also maybe some better antennas since those are a measly 2-3dpi gain. That's the one nice thing about the ASUS's is they ship with that but are much more.

 

I am not allowed to change the antennas otherwise I'd exceed 100mW EIRP

My 15ft CAT5e cable arrived. :D Now I can move my laptop away from where my "computer corner" has a keyboard. Next up is the dock for my laptop. :P

Due to regulatory standards in you are a? I would still get the extension that have bases to get them out from behind your case. They're a couple a bucks a pop on ebay.

8GB. Still a tiny amount, but external storage isn't an issue.

Yep the smaller model just forgot the size. The funny thing is it shipped with a download code for nintendo land while the 32Gb shipped with a physical disc. The 8GB doesnt have room for nintendo lands save files after the download :P

I have a 500GB external on my 32GB. Took 3-5 games to fill up the 32GB but I have a HDD and enclosure lying around so no biggie. Just wish it used eSATA or USB 3.0...

Its good to write with but just flows much more ink that needed which ends up smudging sometimes. For that reason i prefer ballpoints for general use. If i was drawing i would probably use the hi Tec C more. There is a reason that my dad using gel tip pens all the time. At any rate my main writing implement is a rotring 800, pens fall to the wayside when it comes to doing maths.

Asus ROG Swift. First 144hz or 1440p monitor and I LOVE IT! I will never go back to 60Hz.

 

I need to hook up my 4th monitor, I have to drill holes in an old TV wall mount first, and convince my dad that drilling holes in the wall isn't THAT bad.

 

Have to love the colors of TN Panels! I made a mistake getting 4 TN panels xD

The fact that there's even an 8GB model in this day and age seems crazy. I'm so used to having terabytes of spare storage.

 

I take it you get your games from the eshop?

Yes it does. They are using flash in it though not a HDD so using more would have significantly driven up the price. Why not then just use a HDD?

Yep I download all of my games cause why not in this day and age. I turn on just the pad and can launch into my last 8 or 10 games and applications. I do t see why anyone would want to fuss with discs. I blame steam for this influence on me.

Recently acquired a Xbox one and im essentially doing the same thing. Almost more important though since I'll be streaming it to my pc most of the time.

I would do the same if the physical copies weren't about $20 NZD cheaper ^^;

from EVGA B-stock ($369).  I haven't installed it to test it yet but physically it looks flawless, blemish free.   Now!  I just hope it works as well as it looks.  The build quality is truly amazing, makes my EVGA GTX 670 look like it was made by Fisher Price in comparison.  Also,  I'm very...very glad that it came with a backplate, this thing is heavy.

obtained a fiiO x1 in order to get around the fucked headphone jack on my nexus 5 and hopefully allow it to last a bit longer on battery. I did not know that there were 2 colorways and i should have told Headphonic that i wanted the silver one but oh well. I kinda want to try and paint it black anyway so no big deal. Need to get a 128GB micro sd card for it though.

 

My only real issue with the x1 is that making local playlists is a pain in the ass and a complete wasted of time. Also with large lists momentum based scrolling like on the ipod touch would be amazing but hey, it was only $140 vs close to $400 for a no fucked Ipod classic. I do want to try to make a 1TB ipod at some point though not that i have any need for that much storage.

I also got a new cable for my SE215s because the stock cable is currently broken

Upgrade from my HD5450 in the 64 X2 rig.

What Athlon, exactly? Regardless, nice time-correct pairing. I'm planning to pair up a GTX 480 with a 7850BE if I can ever get the stupid thermal pads for my 480. :/

Damn that is sexy. And the high flow bracket is just an additional plus, in my book. I still need to try and find one from a 580 or 480 so that my 480 can breathe a bit better.

Non-G-Sync, which I'm glad about because I hate displayports right now. I've never had a monitor with such an awesome stand before, so I'm still moving it about for no reason like an idiot  :lol:
