I have a $15 Newegg gift card that is expiring, and I can't think of anything that I really need. 

 

I'm thinking a wireless charger just because I can't think of anything ekse....but any other good options?

A decent PWM fan. You never know how much you need decent PWM fans until you realize that you're down to salvaged 3-pin prebuilt fans.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

I'm good on fans, I have a few 120/140 pwm fans and a bunch of 3 pin fans that I can just use DC control on.

Haha I used to have an X1950XT, awesome card back in the day, and one of the last powerful AGP cards they made (which is the reason I got it).

 

I think I still have it somewhere actually!

Some good USB cables? Not sure how many you could get for $15, but they're handy to have... Uh... Handy.

A fan controller?

Or just put it towards something more expensive you actually want?

Don't want anything more expensive either.

Well, half the time someone needs to charge their phone (and I'm nearby), I have to explain that I don't have USB-C, Lightning, or 30-pin cables, then swear to myself to stock up on them and in the end never get around to it. That's one reason for them.

There are actually lots of situations where it's in my best interests to have certain devices running that aren't mine. And also to be able to pull files from them and whatnot...

It's a minor thing, of course, but it's something that can be useful. I mean, you seem pretty out of ideas.

The only reason I'm here is that I have homework that I don't want to do

If it was anything but DMS-59, I'd probably have bought one myself, actually. Nice little card for a retro "2005 got too much money" build.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

Yeah, but a wireless charger is still my best option since there's at least some benefit from that.

No need. I have a few enclosures plus most of my random drives (that aren't in an enclosure) are 3.5" anyway.

Already have a battery bank I don't use. I have probably close to ten flash drives just sitting in my desk that I never use, and I also have quite a few SD cards as well. I have more aux/ethernet cables then I know what to do with, and I have a garbage.
