I have both an Optical dive and a TV tuner. 

optical drive, tv tuner, $20 keyboard and mouse, $2 headphones

 

Hey guys, I see nothing wrong with those items. In fact, if you reverse engineer the TV Tuners, rip into the Optical Drive, and attach the cables from the Keyboard, Mouse, and Headphones, you've got the OARTHIS®™: Optical Augmented Reality-TVTuner Headphone Input System (Patent Pending)

 

Just be sure to feed your mouse and eat the keyboard.

A pentium 4 - Willamette + mobo with ridiculously, stupidly rare type of ram, a RDRAM. Bought that several years ago and found myself stock with 64mb of ram. I wasnt able to upgrade it because I couldnt find one on sale.

Probably my case and mouse. My headset is quite a big embarassment as well (Microsoft lifechat lx-3000).

 

Oh and also my motherboard. Sort of skimped out on that...

 

Had a 9600GT in my old rig. As well as a Core 2 Duo...

The case my server is in... I got it for free, but it's just some horrible, non branded pc case, which I then "modded" (i'm a super noob at modding lol) by just drilling a ton of holes in the front so the front mounted fan had something to suck air through hahah. 

CPU i5 4430 3Ghz | Ram: 16GB DDR3 1600 | GPU: GTX 650 Ti 1GB | Mobo: H87N-Wifi | Case: White Bitfenix Prodigy | Boot Drive: 120GB 840 Evo (Mac OS X) 120gb OCZ Vertex 3 (Windows) | Games Drive: 640GB WD Green | OS: Windows 8 & OS X 10.9.1

I love all technology. The perfection of macs for my designer side, and the hardware and fun of tinkering on the of the pc side. We can have it all, just not at the same time.

For me its probably my Lite-On DVD±RW Writer, iHAS324 which didn't come with a sata cable so I was short so as soon as windows was installed I plugged in my  hdd instead. Other then that, my laptop is setup as a bridge because I forgot to buy a wireless card and I can't drag cables all through the house. Cable management is something that I haven't yet done much about as I'm lazy and just wanted to test my system and actually start using is, So I'll probably have to fix it.

I once explained to my girlfriend what true love is. I said, "If you were a shit, I'd put you back in" and to this day, she is still my little shit.

(What's wrong with optical drives folks? I still use mine on a regular basis! Whilst my external storage is cloud and USB based I still do things like ripping my CD collection, which I do expand every now and then, in .flac)

 

As for embarrassing hardware... Honestly I don't regret much. Although I might mention my poor HD6950 which died prematurely during the process or replacing the TIM (it was like 2 years old at the time).

I'd have to say my cable management, they're parts after all. my case is old so doesn't support cable management, however I wouldn't replace my case easily.

 

I love everything about my pc, it does exactly what I want exactly how I want it done. if it didn't I'd have sold it and gotten the parts I want, I don't waste my money, I spend knowing what to get and what not to get.
