my mother pushed a large box across the floor to me and told me I had to guess what's inside.

I asked if I could guess a product number. it was an Asus PB278Q. I love this massive monitor. so much room to work.

Happy Holidays: :)

Happy Hanukkah (16th thru 24th)

Merry Christmas (25th)

Happy Kwanzaa (26th thru 1st)

 

Logitech G910 Orion Spark RGB Mechanical Keyboard (+o-rings)

***no it's not Cherry MX and the key switches are amazing so I don't care!***

Logitech G502 Proteus Core Tunable Gaming Mouse

+ other non-technology stuff

I hate the G910 with a passion *shun*

 

Oh and the G502... geez, you managed to get two peripherals that I don't like xD

 

Whatever, I can accept the the G502 is a good mouse (the G910 doesn't get such a bright ray of sunshine from me) so I hope you enjoy it's company!

|PSU Tier List /80 Plus Efficiency| PSU stuff if you need it.

He brought me a R9 290 (DCU II) on Monday that died in 24 hours since a mosfet exploded. Getting a refund and buying a MSI Lightning R9 290X (@CoolaxGaming, :D) since I got Christmas moneyz.

Oh dude, I'm so sorry for you bro :(

Ordered a new GPU today, shipping the 290 to Amazon tomorrow. Also, it isn't a 290X now, it's a GTX 970 Strix. The day I plan to order the 290X is the day it isn't on sale anymore... Guess I'll be jumping ship. Haven't since a GTX 260.

I'm using a TN panel monitor with HDMI at the moment.. I need a DVI to DP for my Dell one so I can have a decent monitor as a secondary. For now it sits in my TV stand next to a dusty PS3 and a ton of dusty PS3 games .:(

I usually don't get much tech stuff for christmas, mainly because My parents like picking out gifts, and they aren't very tech savvy. I am thinking about either blowing my birthday/christmas money on a 24h9i Or  throw it into the savings for my new workstation/gaming PC.

Is it bad that my dream setup only costs a few thousand not counting the obutto?

Motherboard: asrock 970Pro3 r2.0

Directly? Nothing. From the money given to me; another 8GB of RAM and a Crucial MX100 256GB SSD. Needless to say, I'm excited.

I gifted myself my credit card for Selfmas. Just waiting to click buy on the right laptop for my travels.

Never say it's not broken. Everything is broken. Why? Because everything needs MOAR POWA!
