Recently, Guns of Icarus Online. Bought the four pack.

Buddies and I scream in English accents for a few hours at a time. Making a Junker and putting three harpoons on it, with two flamethrowers...we did better than expected. I don't think I stopped laughing the whole session.

I really wish that we'd just make organic hardware already, that grows and adapts to the demands it needs to meet. That way, grannies' computers can be floppy sacks of organicness and the 12 year old Minecrafters will look like the guys that only do bicep curls, and the nerdy programmers will finally have justice, with their body-builder rigs that skipped leg day.

Probably my Acer C720P Chromebook.

 

I wanted something smaller since my High-powered laptop was too bulky to just chill in bed or easily take to a coffee shop or something and I had a gaming rig aswell so I started reading up on Chromebooks, then I saw Linus' review of the C720P and walked the 3 blocks to Futureshop to check one out.

 

Use it pretty much every day now, infact I'm in bed writing this on it right now :)

 

My laptop is pretty redundant now, and I haven't used my table since I got this either, so I think I'll sell them off and downsize to Chromebook and gaming rig :)

A second GPU and the inside of my build is pretty much done for a while, after the second GPU I'll get a second monitor, because I have found myself needing it more that you would think since I'm too much of a multitasker. Besides that, I want to get an Objective 2 ODAC, but I'm not in a rush to get that

Possibly going to need a second 780Ti soon since I'm now gaming at 4K, other than that I'm perfectly happy with my rig.

As I have little money and a HAF 912+ sitting next to my desk I am modding that to fit my water cooling loop in which is a 240mm and 360mm rad to cool my cpu and gpu. I also have some mayhems emerald green x1 uv coolant which I got for free which I am going to be using so some of the case will get painted as well as the RAM and the motherboard as they were bought for a blue colour scheme. The only things I will need to purchase for this a new reservoir, new tubing, new fittings if I am going to be using acrylic tubing, and some new sleeving for the new colour scheme.

My rig: i5 2500k, MSI Z77A G45, Gainward GTX 980 Phantom, 8GB Corsair Vengeance, OCZ ZT series 750W PSU, 1TB HDD, 800D, fully water cooled. I am currently working on modding my HAF 912+ to fit a custom loop, here is the build log: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/165963-project-viridis-water-cooled-haf-912/

Well, change in plans. I'm going to be getting a Sentry Mix 2, 2 80mm fans, 1 12-foot 3-pin fan extender (for the fan in my "sound input switcher" aka radio tuner so I can control it as well, since it gets HOT), a 120mm fan, and then a while down the road a HAF 912. Then a Dell S2340M, EVGA GTX 750Ti and DVI cable, 8GB of RAM, and a Logitech K830.

I plan on leaning away from watercooling, and possibly building a smaller PC. I want a small box with a handle, easier for moving and transporting. Besides the older I get the less games I seem to play, especially the type of games I play don't seem to be demanding at all anyway.

It has onboard video? Also, did the PCIe caps come with the board, or did you have to buy them separate?
