4. Casio Illuminator wristwatch - I feel naked without it in public, It's gr8

2. 3 1080P Monitors all for £200 (One was new at £100 and a year later I bought the other 2 used for £100)

3. Audio Technica ATH-M50 (Has made me realise just how awful normal headphones are)

4. PS4 (Yes a console but meh I am a console gamer dipping my toe into PC Gaming)

[Slinkey]

2) Denon AH-D7000 ~$900

[Ruostunut kokis]

1. My current PC (~800€ at the time of purchase of which I only needed to pay 500€. Now the total would be ~1100€)

2. Mil-Tec Assault pack backpack (30€ excluding all the additional PALS pouches. Total would be ~60€). The best 30€ I've ever spent. It's surprisingly good for such a cheap backpack. Link to that specific backpack

3. Orange box (24€, physical disk). Out of all the games I've played, I've spent most of my time in TF2, with 1914 hours on my main steam account, and additional +400 hours on my secondary account. Though today I haven't played it much; last time played TF2 over half a year ago.

4. Attitude One Vintorez -gaming mouse (~30€). Cheapie and shaped a bit oddly, but a lot better than my older wireless laser mouse.

5. Mil-Tec paratrooper's combat boots (50€). My most expensive shoes I've ever had, still cheapos, but good ones.

4. Black low top converse chuck Taylors. They go with everything(even a tux)

5. My laptop. 10hr battery and a 1080p 15.6 display at $700

[chilicheeseburger]

Logitech MX518 -It's almost 6 years old still in great condition got it for 20$.

Look up the price now, you'd be surprised.

I have the same mouse and it's awesome. Unfortunately the 'skin' on the sides started to crumble off so I had to remove that but it's still a nice mouse and it already lasted so long I have a feeling I'm gonna be buried with it.

Other worthwhile purchases include:

-my pc

-my dvr sattelite box and sky pay tv (recording movies ftw)

-playstation plus (50$ a year and you get games every month, like good games actually. Bioshock infinite for example.)

1- Logitech G500 for $50. Not the cheapest it has ever been but great mouse and I'll be really sad when it dies or falls apart somehow.
2- My Nexus 4 for $200. Just a great phone for the price, I don't need anything more.
3- Sennheiser HD650 for $300. Amazing headphones hopefully they'll last me a while. They should.
4- My PC for $1400 or so. Business in the front, party in the back. I do nearly everything I do on that thing.
5- Dye DM8 paintball gun for $220. Sold my Dye NT for $1100 and a couple of other guns for a few hundreds each. I only have two hands and this thing does the job.

Yes, i got a cheap one on amazon, realy nice.

[AllstaRawR]

Could you list the exact one? I was looking around a few weeks ago, I'd much rather buy one that someone specifically has tried.

 

Sorry for off-topic haha.

 

Adding to that list: Surround sound speakers...

[Silvercall]

In no particular order :

1. My PC

2. My cameras & lenses (Nikon D610, Leica M6 & M3, Hasselblad 500CM)

3. My Road bike (Trek Domane)

4. My computer speakers (Audioengine A5+)

5. My phone (HTC One M8)

[chilicheeseburger]

[Tsuki]

1.Diablo 2:LoD

2.my computer

3.my kitty cat (adorable yet murderous siamese)

4.my wife (although i didnt technically purchase her, i have spent an absurd amount of money on her)

5.the rockstar i had this morning (i was really fucking tired)

[Quilamento1]

1.) Arma 2 and Operation Arrowhead. I paid £15 for this game and have had thousands of hours of fun playing mods, such as Takistan Life and DayZ .

2.) Microsoft Sidewinder X4. Fantastic keyboard, great build quality and loads of great features that for once, aren't at all gimmicky.

3.) EVGA GTX 570. Although now almost four years old, it still performs exceptionally. The build quality is great and it hasn't faulted once. 

4.) Corsair AF120 Fans. These fans are excellent - they are virtually silent, very easy to install and come with an abundance of quality extras, such as the coloured rings that allow you to change the colour of the rim on the fan.

5.) Olympus E-450 DSLR and all of my lenses. Great compact camera that performs similar to other competitors that are either significantly larger or more expensive. Also, Olympus provides great quality kit at a very reasonable price. However, it must be noted that there is a slight deficit of variety when it comes to third party equipment for olympus cameras.

 

Thought I'd add my least worthwhile purchase - my Kodak Hero. Honestly, this thing is almost excruciating to use. The touch screen on it isn't very responsive, hooking it up with my PC is a pain, the software is the epitome of over complication and to make things even worse, I had to return my first one because it stopped working. For the price, you could buy much better alternatives, like HP and Epson.
