What did you recently buy for your computer?

Bought an E-Element RGB from Massdrop. If someone wants it - it has Blacks. Msg me. I'm not entirely happy with it because i need the key for <>| and it's not there because US-layout.
Kinda got used to DE-layout... so ugh, didn't think it would be such a hurdle.

 

You might sometimes also miss Ä, Ö and Ü. Depending on what you want to write at least.

 

OS is running on german layout, so i don't miss german special characters. It's just 104 keys vs 105 keys and i'm missing that one key (next to left shift).

My workaround is to just hit Shift+Alt, it switches to english layout, then i can <>| no problem and switch back for öäüß and stuff.
As i said if someone wants it just msg me. Nice keyboard after all.

 

Ah, makes sense now. I didn't know how little I know about keyboard layouts, although that's pretty unessential anyway.

 

I know those problems all too well

My macbook is good fun. Its printed in turkish layout. Great but I am in england. That and apples idea of UK layout is not UK layout, apple UK is essentially a ISO variant of the US ANSI layout with a £ sign stuck on the 3 key. Thankfully there is a UK-PC option in the settings screen, which then confuses the fuck out of people that sit down and try to use my macbook with its completely non matching keycaps XD

 

I bought this mouse for my laptop, simply because I found an old game card under the sofa with 10 pounds on it.
All i needed was something with a decent amount of buttons.

 

I got myself a MSI GTX 960 4GB for Christmas.

 

A cheap 5 dollar mp3 player and cheap 2 dollar earbuds. (I bought these cheap gadgets for the hell of it)

I got a GTX 960 and the new Razer Mamba.

 

I spent the last of my "Cool old shit" budget on this power supply to get my old IBM PS/2 up and running.

 

Bought a used R9 ASUS 280X, awesome card.

 

SSD. Made Beam run 110% faster.

 

You made the exact same mistake I did, maybe your luck will differ.

OT:

So the PSU I got off eBay got the old beast powering up but no post, asked some other vintage computer gurus, said it could be because I'm missing the dallas clock chip. £13 lighter lets hope this gets it to post.

 

Works fine for the third month now, what is your bad experience with it?

 

I bought a used Sapphire R9 280X four months ago, it just decided to give up on life, bsod, restart, no post. Ended up having to use a spare HD6870 I had laying around.

 

inb4 mined on for 2 years then broke, reflowed and sold to you

Anyways I got a screen for my HP laptop. (that then proceeded to die). Selling it and the other one I have laying around in hopes of getting an i5 ThinkPad of some sort.

 

I see. Well, It works great for me, now it's stock, but before that it went on higher clockrates and it was all stable with a slightly increased vCore.

core 1250 @1700
mem 1000 @1500

 

Knowing my luck that's exactly what happened. You can buy my ThinkPad if you want. £450 or we can just trade for a GTX 980.

 

If I had £450 or a GTX 980 laying around I wouldn't have any problems
