I've got 3 desktops, 2 laptops, a 16TB server, literally hundreds of pounds of GPUs (I've got at least 86 of just one kind), and loads of other parts as well (dead GPUs, old CPUs, piles of DDR2, some old motherboards, and lots of fans).

 CPU: I9-7900X RAM: 64GB (16X4) DDR4-2933 GPU: RTX 3080 MOBO: ASUS X299 Deluxe PSU: Corsair RM850 SSD: ADATA XPG SX8200 PRO 1TB HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB Case: Corsair iCUE 465X Cooler: Corsair 280 AIO

I find either good used deals, like I got a bunch of DDR3 8GB sticks @ 5$ each, then I give them to my friends with old computers and sometimes I show them how to build a computer and they get a computer and they let me have their old computer. my parents gave me an imac (in like 2008, it has a core 2 quad that I stuck in there, it came with a core 2 duo), my old i5-3570k/670 rig, and my old Q8400 rig. They still run last time I checked, but I never use them.

Old laptop & macbook is my previous laptop and the macbook that my parents gave me.

 

Also impulse buying :P

You mean computers that just sit in a corner and nobody uses them? If so, I have 2 desktop, 2 laptops and a pile of PC hardware like HDDs, GPUs, CPUs, motherboard and RAM+some cases. I could probably build another 3-4 desktops for web browsing out of those parts.

Main system: Ryzen 7 7800X3D / Asus ROG Strix B650E / G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO 32GB 6000Mhz / Powercolor RX 7900 XTX Red Devil/ EVGA 750W GQ / NZXT H5 Flow

Like in current use. Like I have 1 desktop in my bedroom, 1 desktop in my basement, 1 thinkpad for travel, and 1 computer I'm just working on for fun. But, I'm considering turning the thinkpad into a desktop and ditching my less powerful gaming rig (yeah the one with the i7-2600 and 1050ti and just funneling the sale of that into my main system

I just built a new PC actually, which I wanna sell but hey while it's around I'll tally it

 

3 gaming PCs

3 laptops

1 dell desktop

a playstation 4 and 2 switches (those are computers too, and the handful of smartphones I've got around)

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Then I will add 2 high end gaming PCs, 1 mind range gaming PC, 1 desktop for web browsing, 1 PC that I use as a Plex server and 2 Predator Helios 300 laptops. Those are all currently in use in the family. Not counting smartphones/tablets.

There's  my main, My laptop, the Tertiary, and another one that I have but haven't found time to poke at, if things go well I'll soon have another.

† † †

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
    That mark our place; and in the sky
    The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
 
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
    Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
        In Flanders fields.
 
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
    The torch; be yours to hold it high.
    If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
        In Flanders fields.

 

 

Cry havoc and let slip the Togs of war.  (Signature V3)
