The TPU UK Clubhouse

Alright guys, W1zzard is on holiday for a couple of weeks. I say we revolt, take over the place and elect Tatty as our new benevolent site owner. We can fly our imperial English flag/banner across the site front page.

And you chaps wonder why we had an independence vote? It's the UK clubhouse you Anglo-Saxon deviants.

He's back now, so it's too late to crush the rebellion anyway
 
MOT booked in for Monday, guys I've gone with do a free retest if they do the repair work, and they're fairly well known at work for being decent!

Pray for me!

Just buy new cars and sell them once they are 3 years old, that way you don't need to bother with MOT's lol :)

Am doing, getting rid of the car in January and then getting a shiny brand new Citroën c1 air! Super cheap on insurance and the lady can drive it, not to mention cheap tax and fuel!

meh i prefer older cars!

its only expensive when youre young, then the insurance is the same as tax. but i do like tinkering.
 
A bit strange.... North london is actually silent for once, No sound of police sirens passing through 3 or 5 times an hour.... but then again its almost 2am....
 
Corsair 750D+H105 for £200, I really shouldnt but my god my hardware would look so drool worthy in this case

I'd love a new case, but despite the fact I won't be able to buy one until November, I genuinely cannot decide which one I like best. I'd like an Aerocool DS 200, but also a Dimastech V3 test bench, but also quite like some of the older generation Silverstone cases, and also a massive fan of the Air 540. Too complicated

So i decided to go open season on a french dude on ebay....

Thanks, but i received no email or message on ebay regarding my order not being available and suggesting an alternative.

You still have the item listed as 4 available - and that honestly leads me to believe that you did not want to do business with me in the first place as I am from the UK otherwise you would have made more of an effort to contact me.

I will be leaving negative feedback regarding the transaction. forwarding all message logs to ebay and reporting your listing/auction as it is against the law & also a SCAM to advertise goods for sale that you DONT have.

If your excuse was really genuine then you would have removed the listing from ebay to save wasting other peoples time.

These rigid SLi bridges can be quite hard to find and are quite sought after by people running SLi as having a rigid bridge is always better than a ribbon cable.

Anyway.

Good luck with sale

Yeah it was a real hard decision.

I like the Air 540 because of the window, the space you have to work with & the chambering but there is just too much plastic on that case.

760T - Because the window looks sexy like

780T because its the bigger brother of the 760T - still has a window but it just doesnt look as 'open' as the 760T where you can see literally EVERYTHING.

750D - A more professional 'understated' case with pretty much all i could ever ask for.


--- Obviously these cases feature a load of plastic but i cant quite make my mind up on which to pick.... but i LOVE the window on the 760T & Air 540.

Any case here would be fine for me i guess.
 
Went for a 45min blitz at the gym - 15mins of up hill cycling and 15mins of up hill rowing and 15mins of up hill lifting @20kg --- Yeah i know, even a baby can lift that but ive been outta shape for a while and im trying to get back into shape so spare me the negative comments

Ontop of all this, I have a cold and after this blitz i cant help but feel a little nauseous....

Lads.... I think im gonna die :cry:

If i dont make it - build a X79 rig and donate it to a random TPU member
 
Car failed its MOT, repairman said it's time to go shopping, needs to be in a scrapyard :laugh: Luckily I can run it until November the 8th.
Holes everywhere you can put your fingers!

Decides whether your car is fit and safe for driving. Has to be done every year.

Citroen C1 Flair 5dr if all goes well. Was expecting to be able to save until Jan to get it outright, but looks like the credit card will flop out.

I mean if there's anything mechanically wrong with it, like seatbelts, framework structural integrity etc.

Its a 1969 GTO. I don't even know if it has seatbelts lol! It sure doesn't have disk breaks or any airbags. I'm guessing it wouldn't pass MOT?
