What Tech Did You Save Up For

[CoolaxGaming]

My 290x

[zappian]

Im saving for a 280x right now.

[Rettiekadettie]

I'm never done saving,i always want something,now i want a m.2 ssd,and i want some ambx lights or something.

Maybe a new set of ram,and a new cooler would be awesome to,the one i have now doesn't match the color scheme.

 

So much things i want and so little money...

Story of my live.

[Zambonie]

None.

I don't have my own money.

At all.

 

Everything I get is pretty much paid by my parents, and I go on them lightly.

I'm not spoiled I just don't have my own money except some Euros and some złoty laying around from a trip to Europe.

[Tedster]

Saved up for my SHIELD and my 680...And my PS3...

[handymanshandle]

Well I'm still technically in the process of saving up for my build.

Which it'll take a few months to save up for this...

 Which a fitting name for it could be tricycle but meh that seems a.) too basic and b.) a little too simple

[B@ttery]

now day's i don't have to save so much. I buy it when i need it. But i might have to wait that my budget is stable. That i can spend little more. 

[Clyne]

I paid 240 € ($ 270) for my Gigabyte r9 270X 4 GB OC

Hey but that was a 4GB VRAM edition.........and mine is 2GB.

You probably bought it during the mining craze where AMD GPU prices were jacked up,

[Will Barnard]

I am currently saving for an ASUS GTX 970 Strix, should be able to order it in two weeks.

[Apple_II]

I saved up for a 970. Have it now. And now I completely regret(way too much coil whine and other issues).

[applesuxD]

My beyerdynamic custom one pros

Worth every cent

[Kazooey]

i borrowed 440$ from my brother to buy a 4790k and an h100i.

 

took me three months to pay him back (No job)

[IMPERIUS]

I added 200eur of my own money to the 700eur from my parents. I've been saving money my whole 15life years for stuff like this. I also bought my ps4 and headset and am maybe buying gunnar glasses in the future

[Tokuninashi]

My HAF XB case and a GTX970. Not long before the VRAM fiasco, too. Ugh.

 

But my monitor is but a 1600x900 anyway.. So I am saving for a new monitor now.

[MrRavens]

I guess all my stuff. But recently my new rig. Actually still saving because I wanna see what new graphics cards come out of team red and green.

[hak4fun]

I saved up for tablet(some RCA 7inch android 4.2) Have had it for a year, and does everything I need and I only paid $100

I am still saving up for a new PC. I have been borrowing my dad's i5 4460 8GB of RAM GTX750TI but would really rather have my own PC for gaming. 

[bigbaddevil7]

I saved up to have a x99 system. Now I'm saving for a GTX980

[crazikyle]

The thing I specifically saved up for was my 970. Eventually, all my tip money started piling up, and instead of doing the smart thing and saving it, I decided to make it my new 970 fund. Every tip I got from then on out went straight to my 970 fund. It was nice paying in cash because my bank account never suffered.
