Mainly MCMexpo just because its mainly cosplay,few special guest such as this year there is Commander Shepard male voice actor,the woman that voiced english version of Lightning from Final fantasy and there is also Jessica Nigri which of course is a famous cosplayer and lots of anime/games and foreign sellers,few game tournaments. Where as london film consist of mainly lot of celebrities,some of the biggest names on list i've seen was Carrie Fisher and Stan Lee.

 

[FreedomEclipse]

Mmmmmmm Jessica Nigri.....

Hell oooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Noticed data drive only has 100GB left, which is enough for GTA V and a couple of others. In fact, my SSD has more free space than my data drive. Gone ahead and ordered another generic WD Blue 1TB drive and decided I'll dedicate it to Steam. That folder is getting somewhat large these days!

Also @FreedomEclipse, just ordered a replica glass from Blade Runner... Certainly not cheap, but you might appreciate it (Linky)

Found a Gigabyte GA-Z97X-UD5H, usually around £160, and this one's on offer for £107... Rather tempted, as I'll be jumping on an i7 at some point soon. Then I can shift this mobo combo down to the Steam Machine!

@RCoon this ones mine right here

less classy as yours of course but paired with a nice decanter might make it look a little classier.

On a side note - I might have a AsRock Z68 Extreme4 and a 3570k up for sale soon if anyone would be interested in that. No original box or packaging sadly but the stuff works and has never been overclocked if anyone would be interested.


::EDIT::

I know you already have one but i just found a perfect decanter for you

Also that decanter set! Where did you find it?

So little update from me,still working on all my assignments and dissertation and close to finishing the practical end. Also started the process of changing my room now(my graduate gift?) got the new bed frame+mattress sorted and now needing to find myself a smaller office desk that can fit my Fractal design,PS4,PS3 and all my games haha anyone got suggestion?
Would of loved to get that ikea desk freedom you suggested but i think it probably be too big for my room.
Anyone got any recommendation on sites to check out for office desk? I've already looked at staples and Ikea and none of them seem to match to my liking,lot of their desk seem to be designed for damn laptop usage and not desktop users.
Been looking through my locals aswell but they all suck and Amazon got some decent selection but they all seem bit cheap.

 

[ne6togadno]

what about http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/40244850/ and trofast with shelves or boxes (or both) http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/40251888/

So the Mickie and trofast on top of the desk? If so not bad combination and the complete Mickie table was a decent shout,did have a look at it before,will probably consider it but going go to my closest Ikea to have a look a lot more when i got time.

micke is 120x50 and trofast is 90x44 so it will eat all your desktop space.
depending on your configuration and space you can palce em as L or parallel one next to another.
browse ikea site. they have pictures of furnished rooms and you can get ideas. place micke like this http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/c...ldrens_ikea/tools/coch/roomset/20151_cocy15a/
and then trofast behind it. use top of trofast for consoles and shelves below for other stuff.
or you can place micke like this

and trofast next to it instead of bin (parallel or perpendicular to the wall).

 

[kurosagi01]

The problem is i could probably just manage to fit the Micke,my bedroom is only about 8.ft 11inch and my new bed has width of 4.ft 7inch which leaves me about 3ft11inch to try fit a desk in.

 

[ne6togadno]

something for the corner like this http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/50244741/ ?
or superstructured micke like this http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/S49926749/#/S49926749 ?

It's been a while! How are you doing mate?

Yeah, I'm good cheers! You?

Went home for a while...

There is someone want to buy this?

My desks just a countertop from ikea strapped to the wall and using legs as support at one end. If i hadn't to fit my drawers under it i would have just used 2 cupboards or similar as ends. Before that i had a Malm desk which i gave to my cousin. My mate uses regular Linmon tables as desks. I used those tables for a second desk for my Amiga and CRT now also a worktop. As long as you stick to the weight limit the tables work fine can even just buy drawers on casters for under, the countertop however takes more weight as its better constructed i think tables aren't solid core.

BLOODY EBUYER.

Had a Gigabyte Z97X-UD5H in my basket, thought it was a steal for £107. Went off to do some work, came back an hour later and my basket was magically empty. Went back to the product page and they've increased the price to £147 :shadedshun:

What's more, checked eBay, found an MSI MPower Z97 for £110.
In the description it says it's brand new, and he bought it accidentally, and it is not compatible with his AMD CPU... Suspicious, but it's a good price.

My fear of eBay was somewhat mitigated by my 780ti Classy purchase. Got it for <£300 last year or start of this year and it hadn't been registered for warranty.
You're always safer buying than selling these days. Even if you're stung, you will get your money back through eBay.

I just fancy upgrading to a Z97 board for Sata Xpress and M6e M.2 slot. Had words with various Intel processor related people about Skylake, and they thought sticking to Z97 was a better call.

It's either that or buying @FreedomEclipse's 3570K for the secondary machine DERP, secondary machine is Z87, when did that happen? Sorry Freedom, apparently I have a newer socket.

Believe it or not I'm thinking of down/side grading from x79 to z97 simply for the itch. I figure x99 isn't worth it for me and z97 gives me all the bells and whistles without the expense. I was maybe going to hold out for Broadwell enthusiast but that looks like it's maybe being dropped as Skylake comes in but I don't even know if Skylake has an enthusiast end...

X79 with no M.2, pci-e 3 not functional, aging and overworked 3930 at 1.39v for like 3 1/2 years.... How much more life has it got? I just wish I knew the future of cpu's. I've saved for enthusiast grade for years and can comfortable afford X99 but I don't see the point when a Z97 rig would probably game faster, unless games start using all cores (DX12...)

I'm just happy Titan X is stupidly expensive - it's stopping me from buying it knowing there is something better soon enough.

The way I see it, m.2 is the only big improvement. Ddr4 seems pointless,and early engineering samples for skylake were not great. That's just engineering samples though. I'm tempted to get an i7 now on z97 and then focus on getting 4k capable in the next two years.

Its all about the extra cores bruh, And speaking of downgrades I have an OCZ ARC100 coming which i'll use to clone my Win 7 installation on to and then jump on windows 8 - I think it is time.

Well they are finally fixing the 840 evos just a heads up freedom
