 Old Acer keyboard that came with my brothers pc he bought at staples 5 years ago. My keyboard broke about 3 years ago and ive been using it since.

 

 When talking to someone who has half a clue, probably that I have a stock cooler on my gpu. FAIL - first build.

A 9800GTX and 9600 GSO in PC number 2.

Damn. I guess you from early 2000"s gaming?

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.

Tiny 700GB? I have 500GB and that is still more than enough for me!

 

I spent years on a 70GB HDD so I know how to manage without a lot of storage. And I don't think those space saving habits will die anytime soon.

10TB is not enough!

I have a corsair H50 strapped to my GTX 580. In its defense, it runs much cooler than it ever did with stock air.

It's a Chinese piece of crap that I got few months ago, and on some occasions it's wireless adapter causes BSOD. The reason I use is because it's big, it got the back and forth buttons, and I got it for free.

my most embarrasing PC part has to be my case fans. I bought cheap ones thinking it would be fine.

Lenovo Y510p. Not even the SLI version.

 

I'm currently looking to sell it if anyone wants it...

When I get bored, shit gets broken.
