For christmas I got a Pre-paid visa card , which obviously was spent on new pc parts, but now I am down to around 10$ left on it and wanted to know what else there is to buy for my pc , i already have a decent keyboard and mouse im not a fan of mouse pads.

Buy a few cans of compressed air from the dollar store, and maybe a microfiber cloth.

Cable ties or Velcro straps for cable management, optical drive, LED strips, Cheap and nasty fan, Ram heatsinks to make ugly ram look expensive...

Why not use an air compressor/pump of some kind? Cans of air seem wasteful.

 

 

As for the OP, sacrifice it to the great Gaben. Or better yet buy something from GOG.

Maybe you could get a bike pump? But yeah you're right, it'd be more expensive.

A Bluetooth USB Adapter

http://www.amazon.ca/iClever--8510-40-Bluetooth-Adapter-Dongle/dp/B00FR8Z75I/ref=sr_1_16?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1456835880&sr=1-16&keywords=usb+bluetooth

You never now when you'll need it. But boy are they handy.

 

Good looking Usb 3 hub

http://www.amazon.ca/Anker®-Bus-Powered-4-Port-Aluminum-2-Foot/dp/B00O0KISQE/ref=pd_sim_147_1?ie=UTF8&dpID=41VRRCOBdwL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=058BA38VFKY6K93B1E9G

It's nice not having to reach down to plug stuff in. A good looking one attached to your desk is nice.

 

Cheap Fan Speed controller

http://www.amazon.ca/Sonline-Channel-Connector-Blue-Controller/dp/B00X9IHPYE/ref=pd_sim_sbs_147_30?ie=UTF8&dpID=41GE7ECwk5L&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=12Z0MPWGXTNWPKM0EW01

Even if you only have low speed fans, it's nice to be able to turn them down even more when not gaming.

 

Good Quality Micro USB Cable
