S1Rll Olight flashlight and a Lucid mattress off Amazon

Snagged a used 4TB WD Black 128mb cache HDD for about 102USD (warranty's good till 2022), a nice deal for a great HDD.

 

Edit - Having sold my 2x GTX Titan 6GB, I've decided and have snagged a Gigabyte RX VEGA 64 which I'd be getting tomorrow......I'm back, AMD! So excited, I've changed my sig already!

Was on the flea market again. (As usual) Got a Logitech Trackman Marble FX in mint condition, with manual and driver disc for $5 and a motion.plus chair from gesund-arbeiten.com for $11. Thats a $700+ office chair...

 

Update.: Pictures

 

Please ignore, the splashmarks on the chair, currently rubbing it with carpet cleaner as it has some tobacco smell. I could say it's a fantastic chair after my cheap Jysk faux leather one.

The Gekko adapter! Hand-built by the Behar Bros in Turkey. It'll let me play my Dreamcast games in sweet, sweet high resolution with a super clean signal. That's right, we're talking about the heady heights of glorious 640*480. The same size as the image below infact...

 

...Hey we're talking about console gaming from 1999 here. That was legitimately amazing for the time

We recently had a guy retire in my office after 36 years, he had a camera that took floppy discs like that in one of his office cabinets, haha! It was quite a throwback.

Bought this stuff for my upcoming NAS build mainly because of a 40€ Steam promo with the motherboard. I'm already regretting this though because apparently the promo is closed and the motherboard might not be up for the tasks I wanna challenge it with. 

Also got 16gb ddr4 with it.

You'll be fine, I think that build would be powerful enough for a NAS to stream like 4K @60Hz or something like that. I mean at least you've got the RGB hype train in your station when ya know what I mean.

Yeah I know it will be powerful enough with my 2400G installed, but it doesn't have the ports I need, but I have to double check that again.

I bought a mic to plug into my Hd558 headphones. I don't have pictures but here is the amazon page.

@MEC-777 I haven't played too much of SoulCalibur 6 yet, but it's a pretty good game so far.  I mostly only played story mode.  You start off as Kilik at the start of the story.  A certain event happens that forces you to play as Maxi eventually.  I played all of Kilik's parts and 2 parts of Maxi's.  I really love the combat system as you are forced to change it up.  If you spam the same thing the character you're fighting will learn quickly then counter and kick your ass.  It feels like an SNK fighter, and I love that.

Cool. I'm definitely temped to pick it up and get back into it. I know in the earlier games, you could get really good a certain characters and just spam certain moves to win more easily. Glad they've made the AI smarter in defending in that regard. Should help make the gameplay more interesting. 

 

How is the custom character creation? Or have you played with that much yet?

I bought EL wire for my dashboard

I didn't really purchase it, but I did get it as payment for a day's work:

A new cartridge for the turntable in the livingroom.

Only intended to get a 2080... but the monkey on my back wouldn't fuck off.
