if You had money to throw around, Which hardware would you buy for Lolz & Why?

1TB Samsung SSD.

AMD RX 480 in 2-Way Crossfire.

Maybe a nice shirt of two?

Some new Makita or Hitachi Power Tools.

A new laptop, maybe an E3 Xeon for my desktop.

Currently focusing on my video game collection.

It doesn't matter what you play games on, just play good games you enjoy.
