originofsymmetry Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 A remote control Growler from classic show Robot Wars off of eBay. I'm for collecting all the toys now
elsiegee40 Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 An enormous flat screen TV to replace the 32" CRT that decided life wasn't worth living after we decorated our living room. Actually, my husband bought it... and I wasn't expecting the flat screen to be that big. He claims it was essential to get a screen that size and that 'all your mates on edugeek would understand'... Then again I have a thing about him buying TVs. The 32" CRT was bought in the run up to some distant football world cup and used the money intended to do up the kitchen. I was extremely unimpressed when I was told it had been ordered! The kitchen got done pdq after that!

Anyhow, last leccy thing I bought was a Wii for my wife. Need Wii Fit now. Gyrating wife....mmmmm...

mats Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Probably my SDS+ hammer drill. It's called The Beast and will bash its way through tiles, walls, concrete, anything really. Excellent fun. If you mean electronic things, a chinese knock-off Arduino Nano.
connor_ict Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Apple MacBook! Hopefully a new DLSR camera soon! For my holidays
NB9457 Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Apple MacBook! Hopefully a new DLSR camera soon! For my holidays I'm soooooooo close to buying one. Always wanted one and Apple Configurator is more of an excuse, but the cost is so hard to justify!
abillybob Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Samsung Galaxy Tab S, great little device pretty much use it as my laptop for everything now

elsiegee40 Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 An electric toothbrush! Going back... washing machine, microwave and kettle since Christmas. It's been a bad year for device failure!
LiamHaith Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 My new Gaming Rig - featuring a lovely Haswell Extreme 4960x 4 core 4.4 Ghz and two Titan X 12GB SLI... I need to get out more.

LiamHaith Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 That's just bonkers! You must be touching £3,500 With the Liquid cooling, and fancy audio cards it's around £4,500. It was £3,500 before I added the second Titan and they retail at roughly £1,000 each. Ideally I want 4 in the long term, just to show off.

I hydro cooled my current build but I think I'm going to go back to just hydro cooling the CPU with a H80i and leaving the GPU stock (whenever I get round to replacing it.. Looking at buying a 980TI, rumoured to be released at the end of the month, should be around £450) Let's face it, water cooling is a nice enthusiast's touch, and it looks awesome, but since I'm not touching overclocks at all, there's really no point to me doing it.
