Photos Latest Purchases Thread: v2.0

Ill remember that about the charging thanks, an id have liked the model up if I have the choice of course the clock makes it much more useable

I got an email come through saying id been chosen, simply clicked the link then put in my policy number at the order stage.

 

Its so I can have a full trading desk at home so I can hedge my own money rather than just making it for the man

And because I'm used to it from work, I decided to get the same set up. I should probably post some pics of it when I get the chance.

 

A couple of memory cards for my phone and tablet:


A new 64GB USB stick to replace my old one:


New headphone stand for my desk:


Also currently eyeing up some bits to upgrade the network in my house... and possibly some furniture to redo my office.

Ah, so lots of viewing of charts and stats.
Would definitely love to see it all up and running.

 

Finally finishing my build!
Got a Fractal Design Node 304 and an MSI R9 270X HAWK




Yes, the machine is a cluster****. Gonna need a modular PSU to tidy it...

 

6GB (3x2GB) of Corsair Dominator GT 2000MHz C8 with Elpida Hyper ICs. Means I can now run 12GB memory with very high bandwidth, but muchas tweaking required (that's the fun part!).

 

These because i'm a idiot. I know the quality is crap compared to other brands and your just paying for the brand name but meh.

 

Wireless headphones that have a wire? Hmmm.

 

I've always liked the idea of those headphones. To me that make a lot of sense. I find wearing my wireless headset that it misses the anchor that the cable normally gives.

 

Beats, eh? I don't even...

 

My brother bought a pair of solo 2's and I just don't see it. Even on sale, they were still expensive, and the bass was too strong, plus I've always disliked the on-ear headphones. They feel more solid than I thought they would, and he's happy so w.e.

 

Never mind

 

I heard the latest releases by Beats are much improved over older generations. That does not mean much, if you ask me, but at least there's progress, right?

If you want to get some wired bang-for-buck in-ears get HiFiMAN's RE-400.

And I just Massdrop'd this:



As tested here (although with a bit higher DPI).

 

My phone upgrade was due next month but I got an invite to buy one of these today:



So thats what I did. I went for the 64Gb black model. I can always just sell my free upgrade next month and I'll make my money back without too much hasstle I hope. To be honest I'm not sure if it was the best decision ever but I'm a sucker for something a bit different and it might re-ignite my recently dwindeling interest in technology.

 

The OPO is a good choice.
Big clear screen, good sounds, grunt to do anything you throw at it....
Nice features too, knock to wake is a gimmick until you have it

Step one though, turn off gestures.
Took me days to figure out why the music player kept starting up....

 

Thanks for the tip.

Quite looking forward to getting it actually. The amount of bloatware on my S4 is starting to irritate me a little. Hopefully this will largly resolve that issue.

 

Corsair K95 RGB keyboard, special edition with the old 'sails' logo. Cherry Red switches.Arrives tomorrow, shipped out from Scan earlier today.

 

If you don't love it then there's something wrong with you. Or you have tiny hands.
