I am so close to my final upgrades  :D

 

My almost essential last upgrades are

1. Corsair 700d case or possibly something like a 650d (I hate my phantom 410 tbh it is built so cheap)

2. The H105 Corsair CPU or possibly a noctua air cooler

 

The rest are things in the future that aren't high priority at all

Replace gtx 770 with 800 series GPU (probably 880)

Get an ROG class motherboard 

Get a steelseries mouse to replace death adder to go along with my steelseries mousepad and headset

Corsair Dominator Platinum Ram (2400 8x4gb = 32gb) <_<

 

Everything else though i'm overly happy with, just got a new 144hz monitor, 2tb WD black drive, 128gb Samsung Evo SSD, Ducky white LED Keyboard Cherry MX Switch and windows 8.1

In order of purchase priority:

 

Gigabyte R9 290, 3tb hard drive, Cooler Master Quickfire TK cherry mx brown, new monitor, second R9 290, liquid cooling loop.

You're and your are not the same. Neither are their, there, and they're. Defiantly and Definitely are definitely not the same. Definately and Rediculous are not words, and you should feel bad for misspelling them. If English is your first language, you don't have a learning disorder, and you get any of these wrong, you are making the entire forum slightly dumber by doing so. Please take the extra three seconds to type properly, and have a nice day.

I'd like to improve my audio setup. Right now I am running only an ASUS Vulcan ANC as a headset.

New to Star Citizen? Look no further!

Have just ordered a Logitech G502.

 

Next step will be a nice mechanical keyboard.

 

Beyond that, I eventually plan to add a decent capacity second SSD for games (currently have OS and aps on SSD, games and files on a Caviar Black HDD), just to make them load a bit faster, but that's a luxury I can wait a bit for as its quite expensive.

I ordered a Samsung 840 evo 250Gb, i actually wanted to get 500 Gb but that was too expensive, because i realy need a good new headset too (Steelseries Siberia V2), my laptop actualy has 2x2,5'' S-ATA rev. III and 1xmsata, 1xSATA Rev.I (for dvd drive), so i can just

 add a SSD to the msata slot if i need more, the crucial msata 250Gb just costs ~100 Euro so that would an option later

I forgot to mention i will be adding some dome cameras in the room with facial recognition running to bb gun anyone's ass who is not on the allowed list. I plan to put up my warning signs and give a 5 second warning before shots start to fire, with all this, no court would be able to prosecute me with a guilty verdict. You and the rest may think i am joking but i am serious about making my very own sentry to protect my home, of course it will not have bullets but some sort of projectile that can stink like a paint ball gun but with out the mess.

I want the Security cam footage of it misrecongnizing you.

And while your at it Bb grenade launchers are cheap and 30 of Em at 70 rounds each backed up by two m134 airsoft mini guns would be very very painful. And no mistaking it.

Now I'm going to ask that your restrain from using airsoft guns as they are already on everyone's hit list. But paintball guns aren't and especially if your going to uses filled rounds. 6 mm filled pellets tend to explode more than fire so paintball would be ideal

Thanks Guys! Fullmetal

I already planned for the mis-recognizing me, i will get one of those round metal trash cans and cut out the bottom and i would be on the inside with the lid as my shield so i can pull the plug. 

 

Like i said i don't want the paint balls as i don't want to clean up the mess. The grenade launchers are way to much for my uses, i don't want to kill my family just lightly injure them.... :D
