I've never had a gaming keyboard, and am currently using a Microsoft Business based one. I also use a 32" Sony Bravia TV as a monitor and have done so for the past 3 years. Also, my power supply is like, 7 years old.  :mellow:

i cut down the tube of H100i last night to see what kind of liquid is in there and how much is it in closed loop coolers

[othertomperson]

I actually liked windows vista at the time..

It was buggy as hell and didn't work, but I loved the design and the user interface.

if only it wasn't such a failiure.......

 

I love the aesthetic of Vista. That was a time when Microsoft looked over at Mac OSX and thought "think what you like about the OS, but visually Apple know what they're doing. Let's bring some of that to Windows". And the graphics horsepower required just to show the desktop went up exponentially, but fast forward to 2014 and it's not an issue anymore. The worst integrated GPU is capable of Aero and I think it's a real shame that Windows 7 scaled back the glass effects as far as it did and Windows 8 removed them entirely in favour of solid colour, if translucent.

I love my razor mechanical keyboard,have a 10$ headset with mic! (It sucks,hurst my ears after 20 min) and my pc has horrible cable management and its really dusty

[gkubed]

I have a Dell Latitude D600 with a 1.6GHz Pentium M, 512MB RAM, and a 60GB IDE drive that I for some reason think is useful.

The Dell Latitude was a relatively attractive laptop, to be fair. I still have a Thinkpad T43 I use at times, though I keep having phanton I/O errors.

[Flying flan]

I bought the g3 over the one m8

[ImaBeans]

I don't feel the difference between mechanical keyboards anymore.  

[ImaBeans]

I also bought a IPhone 5s over a Note 3   :angry:

[Cream pie filled car]

I bought a m-ATX case for an ATX board. A very large face palm came. 

[KenixKill96]

When I was little my parent's bought their first computer,  a windows 95 comp.  I set it up because even around 3rd grade I still knew more about computers than either one of my parents.  I had computer classes from K-8.  I think a couple years later I ask to buy my first non-educational game, Unreal.  I bought a CD cleaner to clean the CD.  It advertized it would help it run better on the computer.  I ended up using the disk cleaner before I installed it and destroyed the cd by over cleaning it.  My father offered to buy it for me again and I refused cuz I had messed it up.  I didn't play real pc games until a couple years later with Counter Strike.

This is a biggee , I'm using a g3258 and a corsair h55 and it's still St stock speed. I have three monitors all running on via.

[JAW96]

Psh, their stuff does sound great!

hey, my issue with Bose is the price to performance, but if you get it half off then go for it.

 

For me it is running my new HD 558s off onboard sound (but damn do they sound great!)

[Suika]

I secretly like some red and black themes.

[Adreyu]

my specs say im using a z97 board but really its z87 and im still waiting for the board to come in. 

[GIRTHQUAKE]

Back in 2006 when I built my first all new parts (everything before was dumpster and scrapped parts) I bought a Pentium D cpu and a BTX motherboard because I didn't know what hyperthreading was and I thought the Pentium D was an actual dual core. And with the benefits of the BTX form factor I really thought it was going to take off. Fortunately I second guessed myself and bought a Cooiermaster CM Stacker BTX/ATX case JUST IN "CASE" and that ended up being a good decision. Used that case from 2006-2014 when I finally replaced it this year.

 

I also bought my first i5 about a month before the first Sandy bridge CPU dropped and dropped all the old prices. It hurt.

[KitsuneJin]

When my friends come over and see that I have a window in my pc case. They always give me a hard time with my motherboard color. Its brown

[Leonard]

Everyone has some dark secret about tech that you are just too embarrassed to talk about. Maybe you're still using a trackball mouse (gasp!), or maybe you still run Windows Vista!

 

If everybody can get these things off their chest here at once, we'll all feel better I'm sure

------------

I'll start:  I really think that Ducky keyboards are pretty ugly. 

This bear's face reminds me of Jeremy Clarkson's in love face.
