Ain't nothin wrong with the 360. Honestly playing through blops wasn't that bad, other than the fact that I can't aim with a controller to save my ass.

True haha. It was a great console for its time. I just keep it for the nostalgia. And it's the exact opposite for me on blops. I've played it on PC, and I was shite with a mouse/keyboard, but I can go all medieval on your ass with a controller lmao

Literally I am one of the worst people you'll meet when it comes to time spent on shooters and skill. In Halo 5 today, I got maybe 15 kills in an hour of slayer, and I got a 60 second ban for killing myself 4 times.

[Nowak]

An R7 240. Yes, really.

 

 

Paired with a Core 2 Quad Q8300, it's surprisingly not terrible, but it isn't great either. If you absolutely must get one, don't get it for $70.

Oh boy. That takes a special kind of skill

Meanwhile I can hop on a Sernix server (read: impossibru) in Insurgency and rack up well over a hundred in an hour just because mouse and keyboard.

Same with me. Like I can hop in an FFA server on CS:GO and get 1st place 99% of the time with a mouse/keyboard, but if I try to do the same with CoD or Doom I end up getting my ass eaten

One of these glorious things, 64 GB for 27$ aint bad and especially for a Samsung EVO Micro SD. My laptop really needed that badly. Plus I get to play Sims 3 on the go now so Win Win!

And a new patch arrived.

[Volbet]

A cardboard box!

 

Ohh, and there was some stuff in the box aswell, I guess.

 

Vinyl records

Top to buttom, left to right:
Black Goat by Black Goat, What Lies Beyond by Bastard Grave, Necronaut & Cloven Hooves of the Holocaust Dawn by Kerasphorous, Devoid of Light by Uada, Upheaval of Satanic Might by Black Witchery, Nordjevel by Nordjevel, Delivers of Faith and City of Slaughter by Clandestine Blaze, Frigidis Apotheosis Genesis and Dead Insecta Sequestration by Celestia and Appaling Ascension by The Ominous Circle. 

Tape


Appaling Ascension by The Ominous Circle again. The sound of this album is simply made for ferric hiss, so I had to have it on tape aswell.

CDs and extras

Songs of the Damned by Divine:Decay and Death and the Beyond by Denial of God.
Apperantly, I had deserved some buttons. I sure as hell didn't order them.
But they are Black Witchery, Nordjevel and Cohol.

 

All in all, plenty of metal. 

Some death metal, some black metal, some that's a mixture of both, some terrible thrash metal and some music made by a person of questionable political and sexual leanings.  

[Marinatall_Ironside]

Time to stretch my wings for a long time! 

[demonix00]

 

A slightly damaged copy of Interviews with monster girls Vol.2 which was caused by whatever untrained monkey Wordery has working packing on Tuesday didn't seal the envelope correctly (which has been rectified with a new copy being sent).

 

 

And what I would refer to as a better headset since the garbage Zalmans I purchased last year are just garbage in every way.

[FloRolf]

An online store had an issue for just a minute where the gtx1080 Strix dropped from 600€ to 450€. 

And guess what? 

 

 

[Totallycasual]

Started having trouble with my PC last week but after some new parts/hassle/troubleshooting the PSU+Mobo i just ran out of patience and order an entirely new PC. 

 

https://www.pccasegear.com/products/38334/pccg-manta-1080-gaming-system

 

This is the system i ordered, i know i could build something similar for the same price but ive honestly had enough of it for now, i just want to get back to playing my games

Damn, I'd love to see the rest of your collection.

Finally bought a 4k HDR Blu-ray player.

 

So, I am now busy watching movies on the TV at the moment (plus, my Mom going nuts over the TV and this player).

I have thought about doing some YouTube videos showing it off, but I honestly don't even know where to start by now. I'm also not sure how to make it entertaining. 

The so called Vinyl Community on YouTube is also the weirdest thing anyone will ever see. It's a personality showcase, that's for sure.

 

Well, I can't remember if I've ever shown these:

Top to bottom, left to right:

Stillbirth in Bethlehem by Recluse, Specters Over Transylvania and Coven, or Evil Ways Instead of Love by Cultes des Ghoules, Suck Cocks in Hell by Shitfucker (with the American cover, becuase fuck censorship that's why), Vargnatt by Ulver, Terminal Death by Terminal Death and The Black Famine by Recluse.

 

Completly dirty and scary black metal, a black metal opera, black metal punk and proto-blackgaze/blackfolk.

Basically, black metal in most of it's shape and sizes.

At least Books etc had a trained monkey in packing since the envelope was actually properly sealed, although I'm going to have to wait for the final item I ordered since where I ordered it from just shipped it out today (that being Friday) even though I ordered it with everything else I ordered from Amazon on Monday.

PS3 version of Persona 5 which has a mandatory 4.5GB install and most likely (even though it's mentioned on the back) a lack of the Japanese voice option since it seems to currently be for PS4 only.

Very nice.  I just got this on PS4 for my friend and I last week.  Neither of us has played it yet but my friend in particular is very excited to have a new Persona game to play.  ?

Wallpaper engine and (while I already had this for a while but still counts cuz its new to my PC in general) A GT 730 for 30$ (Dont mind the dust on my PC ) 

For the love of Nep Nep please clean that.  ?

Hah lol cant, That is the Family PC (Even though im the one who really uses it). So my parents get paranoid when I do anything to do with taking the side panel off  

That sounds like my grandparents...  lol

 

I've been practically begging them to please let me open their desktop and clean it but they won't let me.  Something about being worried I'll break it.  I've only built and worked on 2 desktops of my own and 1 I built and and upgraded for my friend but what do I know right?  ? ?

I wasn't expecting to get the Sailor Moon R set 2 replacement discs, but it seems that where I actually ordered that set from went through the process of getting the replacement discs and probably had them hanging around until I placed another order since they just don't send out replacement discs on their own.

Enjoy watching "Is it Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?" if you haven't seen it already.  I recently watched that and I loved it.

Got some aquatic plants today and started up my fish tank. Also replaced the standard (fluorescent lamps?) lights for 5 time controlled LED strips.

I'm curious how well the plants will do with LED lighting.

 

For a kitty on a fish tank yours looks super pissed.  lol

Got the fan to replace the fan in my PSU that doesn't like being horizontal, and the drive enclosure so that my random 80GB drive isn't being used off of an Xbox 360 Transfer Kit all the time lmao

 

How is that going to replace a PSU fan?

You're running games on an sd card?      Is that possible?  Or a good idea for that matter?

 

I honestly have no idea.  ?

Oddly enough those parts sound rather nice though a few things like the PSU I have no idea if they're good quality or not.  No idea if that price is good or not.

 

Anyway, enjoy the shiny new desktop.   ?

Xbox One S or a dedicated Blu-Ray player?

 

I got an S but I've been waiting on getting paid back some money I'm owed before either buying a 4K tv or computer monitor.  

 

Then it's 4K here I come!  ?

1. Wait you know what Nep Nep is? Holly crap. Also today I will

2. Yeah lol well I got permission after the HDD started to die on my PC

3.  That's Windows 7's task manager. Core Temp is where you want to look. 47 C under full load despite the dust

4. Yep, Its possible. Surprisingly fast too. Good thing too because my PC died a few days ago. Today im going shopping so ill buy a new HDD and a new PSU

Take the old one out, put new one in, shove cable through the 24 + 8 pin hole, plug into motherboard, profit.

[Automobili3XF]

After a lot of thinking, asking around, money rationing and starting 3 topics with the same question here on the forums (sorry and thank you, guys!), i settled on a 1060.

I got a really good deal this week, where i paid the equivalent price of a 6GB Gigabyte or Zotac mini 1060 on a fully fledged 1060 Strix OC 6GB. If i'm really lucky and get to score on the silicon lottery, i'll be able to push this chip past the 2000mhz mark!

I also got a little case fan from CM, it all should arrive until next friday.

Now i'm finaly on the Strix club, shame i can't display this fine looking graphics card, but i will, soon.

Fair warning on that fan: The blades are super close to the edge of the frame (I have the MasterFan 140 Pro so maybe there's a difference but I doubt it). You may have to do some bending depending on where you're putting the fan and such.
