Gotta give you one point, your always getting some of the latest and the greatest, as for showing off i dont like to do it, makes others think your trying to create jealousy or just attempt to be superior to them, but thats me. I believe your income source is very healthy :P too, since your old setup was that "beast" already.

i will haha. its my first time really ocing a CPU, so im being kinda cautious

The only caution you need to have is with voltages, frequencies you can literally do no harm. So just crank it as high as the stock voltages allow, 

Will be 4.2-4.4ish atleast.

 

If you start fiddling with voltages to get it higher, yes, you'd want to know what you're doing

I got one of these things. I've put it on holiday wishlists and put off buying it myself for so long and I really wanted it for camping since summer is coming up/ my bug-out bag I made as a hobby when I was bored.

http://www.amazon.com/iRonsnow-Emergency-Powered-Weather-Flashlight/dp/B00WIF2T7C?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

It's a swiss army knife of survival electronic tools having a radio, LED flashlight and phone charger all powered by either solar panel or hand crank.

I also got a phone case since I didn't have one for my Iphone 5c. It made my phone noticeably heavier, but much more durable and much less slippery in my hand. The price was much cheaper than the one my younger brother got at the mall and at higher quality(IMO) too.

Lastly I got a new mouse. It's much better than the default one that came with my backup office computer I was stuck using. It's cheap and has everything I could ever want and more DPI than I would ever need. It even has LEDs that tell you what DPI you're at with a pulsing effect to boot. It's the comfortable classic mouse design I wanted unlike all those ones with weird shapes and patterns I didn't want or need.

purple version...it just came today and it was just as big as I hoped it to me, really is as slim as I hoped it to be (cause it's using a li-po (or is it li-ion) cell) which is very important when you're going to be walking 25KM for 3 days (and camping) in the wilderness for my DofE silver Practice :D 

And this:

Sigh...should have got a 256GB ssd for my laptop...(which is for school  and the device I use while I'm travelling so...128GB doesn't like games...)

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...

Less of a "purchase" and more of an early birthday present from my brother. 3/8" Snap-on ratchet, Snap-on combination slip-joint pliers, and a 12 inch Mac tools ratcheting bit driver. I used one of my 3/8" craftsman ratchets after the snap-on, and it now feels like a child's toy due to how sloppy it is.

Compared to my 3 inch ratcheting bit driver:

More music, of course! Surprised I didn't have Motorhead - Motorhead in more than just Vinyl.

Went into a store with used CDs for the first time in a while. Ended up with some albums I was surprised I didn't actually own.

56febf2bb7f64_2016-04-0120.31.51.thumb.j

From left to right: Children of God + World of Skin by Swans, Deicide by Deicide, Light Me Up by The Pretty Reckless and Babymetal by Babymetal.

Coupled with the fact that I have ordered Metal Resistance, I think my kvlt card is being revoked by the Elder Council of Black Metal.

Speaking of Metal Resistance... Picked it up today, as well as some 'Tequila flavoured' (pictured) and 'Rum flavoured' (not pictured) beer... They taste like weaker beer btw... Drinkable though, albeit only just. I think I'll stick to the hard stuff from now on.
