Were you one of the lucky ones to nab a $20 bill?

I just scored this for 30% less than what it's selling for right now on eBay in Australia.

I just saw one of those up for sale in the US with the IT recycler I buy things from. Small world! I was tempted but it ended up going for more than I was willing to pay.

This isn't my latest purchase per se, but it's still a fairly recent buy.

 

(For clarification, this is the fully-enabled Titan Xp, not the Titan X Pascal.)

 

-snip

I had one of those for a brief spell back in late 2017.  CEX were selling it but they had it marked up wrong (Had it as a Titan X not the Xp)  I bought it for £750.  I played with it for a bit and confirmed it actually was the Xp then ended up selling it on eBay for a 200 quid profit.

OK, so picked this Dell Monitor up from a YMCA charity shop today for £10.  It's a Dell U2311Hb

And that's why I keep saying that people who are on a meager budget should try to get a used panel.  They are plentiful.

Sold it to my Uncle for what i paid for it today to replace the Fujitsu i sold him a million and one years ago (That was OLD ips about and inch and a bit thick at the thinest part XD) and not even 1080p.  The fuji was my Dad's for a time after i bought it for a fiver at a bootfair.  Let my Uncle have it when my Dad past

I bought a similar monitor, a 2213T http://www1.la.dell.com/content/topics/global.aspx/snp/topics/dell-p2213?c=pr&l=en&cs=prbsdt1

But with the older style stand (they all swap I guess!) with the split Y shaped foot, rotation, and height adjust. It's very stable and the 16x10 aspect ratio is very pleasing to use. I keep it as a spare monitor for system testing since it's got VGA, DVI, and DisplayPort and even speakers too if I bothered to grab a male-male cable somewhere. I paid a little (7x) more than $10 but there wasn't a sticker on my screen! The 2213T is LED backlit, I'm trying to get all my displays away from CCFL since they fail with age, are more power hungry, and a lot heavier to move around and are slower to turn on especially when they get old.

A Xiaomi Mi 12, no Pro, no X... just 12...

 

Still working on the initial setup... you know, it takes a while until it feels like you want it ^^

 

As well as a nice shell with a camera protection slider. that case is wonderful, because of the sliding mechnism the phone doesnt wobble when lying flat on the desk as it would, without it due to the cameras positioning.

Main System:

Anghammarad : Asrock Taichi x570, AMD Ryzen 7 5800X @4900 MHz. 32 GB DDR4 3600, some NVME SSDs, Gainward Phoenix RTX 3070TI

System 3 "Inskah" AsRock Fatal1ty Z77 Pro, Core I5 3570k @4300, 16 GB Ram DDR3 2133, some SSD, and a 2 TB HDD each, Gainward Phantom 760GTX.

 

On the Road: Acer Aspire 5 Model A515-51G-54FD, Intel Core i5 7200U, 8 GB DDR4 Ram, 120 GB SSD, 1 TB SSD, Intel CPU GFX and Nvidia MX 150, Full HD IPS display

 

Media System "Vio": Aorus Elite AX V2, Ryzen 7 5700X, 64 GB Ram DDR4 3200 Mushkin, 1 275 GB Crucial MX SSD, 1 tb Crucial MX500 SSD. IBM 5015 Megaraid, 4 Seagate Ironwolf 4TB HDD in raid 5, 4 WD RED 4 tb in another Raid 5, Gainward Phoenix GTX 1060

 

(Abit Fatal1ty FP9 IN SLI, C2Duo E8400, 6 GB Ram DDR2 800, far too less diskspace, Gainward Phantom 560 GTX broken need fixing)

 

Nostalgia: Amiga 1200, Tower Build, CPU/FPU/MMU 68EC020, 68030, 68882 @50 Mhz, 10 MByte ram (2 MB Chip, 8 MB Fast), Fast SCSI II, 2 CDRoms, 2 1 GB SCSI II IBM Harddrives, 512 MB Quantum Lightning HDD, self soldered Sync changer to attach VGA displays, WLAN

Nifty little stand for $16. Smaller in person than in the photos, but so far so good. Holds up my Be quiet case with no problems. Very sturdy.

Ordered these nifty USB 3.1 to USB A adapters to use an internal USB memory stick on my Unraid server. IMG_3689.thumb.jpeg.2281ee2a488166aff625037a0f155229.jpegIMG_3691.thumb.jpeg.2ab01309d052da6e8e6f15c379df2ee8.jpeg

Needs to be off the floor, and shouldn't be clogging your desktop space--that's what I always say.

Fair enough. I just enjoyed looking at the RGB for the way I had it angled on the desk, but the case is just too big. Maybe I'll get one of those 70" Ikea tables so I can put it back on the desk. Right now its just not practical.

Sad. This didn't work, the header may be fucked. As the ethernet got fried in a lightning storm years ago. Oh well!

 

Short wifi/BT antennas for my PC & network card for the NAS.

I prefer having a monitor big enough that there isn't room in the peripherals to see the case.  And I have far better means employed...of ambient lighting.

Ordered these bad boys. My mom loves Cherry Slices so with Mothers Day coming up I got her 2lbs worth. I decide to get me some as well. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.

Makes the TIE Fighter pilot helmet I assembled seem like a Duplo set. At least you know you'll get good mileage out of this one!

Picked up a new AOC G27G2U 27" monitor to replace my tired old 40" sony bravia tv i used for 5+ years as a monitor. also picked up a set of creative pebble+ 2.1 speakers as used tv as audio source. my cable management is terrible right now as its not permanent as i will be moving very soon. so far im loving the buttery smoothness in gaming compared to my 75hz panel for £230 i dont think it was a bad investment!

 

Also this time i didnt get a deep gouge in the screen when plugging cables in (unlike my other acer monitor) so i can give a sigh of relief lol

When a man lies he murders some part of the world 
These are the pale deaths 
Which men miscall their lives 
All this I cannot bear to witness any longer 
Cannot the kingdom of salvation 
Take me home
