What's on your hardware wish list ?

wishlist for the 03.12 .... 9 days before my birthday .... i decided to gift me some little something ... so i put a wishlist here as a reminder for myself :laugh:

the total price will be lower than what i paid for my GTX 1070 alone :cry: :laugh:
 
not sure why, I'm completely in love with this laptop (please don't laugh at me):

My wish list was just cut in half. I just ordered a Sony 49" X900E and Sony UBP-X800 from Crutchfield after huge price drops, plus a EVGA 1080 Ti FTW3 from B&H Photo. All items have shipped. My only worry is I may have purchased the TV too soon. I have extended holiday return and price protection periods on all these items, but I think it's only to Jan 25 on the TV, vs end of Jan on the GPU. There's always Superbowl sales on TVs just before the Superbowl. It's generally the lowest price you can get without risking them running out of stock after the Superbowl. However if they run that sale say a week before the Superbowl, vs 10 days to 2 weeks before, then my price protection will end before the sale hits. And they told me I could order the TV at anytime during their Early Black Friday sale and still get that price even if it ran out of stock. So now I'm thinking I kinda panicked and ordered too soon.

Other items still on my wish list are 8700k, Z370 MB, and 2x8GB 3000 or 3200 DDR4. Hopefully the prices on the 8700k and DDR4 will stabilize within 3 months.

What do you guys think, do most Superbowl sales on TVs run a week before the game, or more like 10-14 days before?
 
I'll have some cash coming as soon as I sell S2716DG. Hard to explain how much $$$ that'd be since we use PLN, but take the price of a new GTX 1080 G1 (2200PLN) and that's how much. Need:

-mouse (already decided, Razer Basilisk) 300PLN
-mousepad (Razer Goliathus Control medium) 60PLN

that leaves a lot for:
-headphones (light,comfortable for gaming, no mic required) - sth like steelseries V3 or in the same price range
-a decent soundcard ? running onboard 1150 ATM. - sth like strix soar/raid pro

Ideas ?

I'd appreciate 50-100 buck saved for a couple of games.
 
I just upgraded my rig, but I'm already trying to figure out where I can scrape the money together from to get a second 1080Ti

@1440p ? :confused:
 
Can you guys recommend any good usb soundcards ? I don't wanna use a pci-e one in case I buy that adata sx8000 I've been looking at, that'd slash the bandwidth since all three x1 slots and the x4 slot on my mobo share lanes. I've got PCI available too, but do they even make PCI cards anymore ?
 
If epyc and threadripper were put back under the same exact socket electrically, id have a dual tr/epyc board that can heavy oc.
 
So, I have an old VGA monitor, and I had the idea of building an ITX Ryzen APU. But I already have a generic full ATX case, and my old HD7750 has a VGA output and I expect pretty similar performance to the IGP of an APU thanks to the on board GDDR5 memory, plus I'm not limited to the IGP or PSU performance of an ITX build.
I'm doubting if I should go with an R3 1200, a simple B350 board and some 2x4GB 2400-2666MHz RAM, overclock everything and call it a day, that way I have more time to get a digital input monitor, and more upgrade paths.
 
32:9 monitor anyone?.....:D
(sadly not mine though....)

Id love 16GB of Corsair Vengeance RGB 3200MHz ram.
 
I'm getting tired of the shift+w running in games. Seriously. I might get isku force fx, I've been eyeing it for some time. Plus I'd love a good mid-tower case with good airflow capabilities. I've got 5 great fans (2x ml120, 2x nanoxia deep silence 140mm 1400rpm, 1x nanoxia deep silence 120mmm 1300rpm) in my case. They move a lot of air and are very quiet, but they just don't seem to do such a great job in an old fashioned full tower design. In a modern mid-tower with chamber design they'd cool the crap out of the cppu and gpu instead of pushing air everywhere and half of it gets wasted.
 
A Threadripper or an EPYC (2P) system to crunch with! :cool:

Threadripper 2 3950X Dual Processor System (Wishful Thinking) on an Asus Dual Processor Zenith WS-ATX/E-ATX/ATX-XL Motherboard (Wishful Thinking) 128-256GB DDR4/5, Sapphire Nitro+ or XFX GTR or AsRock Navi cards, Alphacool waterblocks and dual waterpump/radiator custom loop for CPUs, GPU(s), VRMs, RAM, SSD/HDD. Latest Samsung/Crucial SSD on SAS, SAS 15000 RPM HDD by Hitachi/Seagate on an Adaptec Raid Card (recoverable raid). My Current case, Sound Card, BR-XL drives.

(Yes I try to build them to last beyond obsoletion)

Sounds good, where could I buy one?? lol :D I do love the look of those Threadripper CPUs....
 
A new Dualshock 4. Not that there's anything wrong with the current one, I just want a new color.

Sanwa sticks and buttons and a large crt monitor for the arcade cabinet I'm planing to build when I get back to my home country.

I agree on being frustrated having to hold shift and w, I always end up making an autohotkey macro for it, as long as the game doesn't ban for using AHK. It is especially annoying if you are using a non mechanical KB, then you can't crouch jump into a window while sprint running, good luck raiding in Rust for example.
 
A 4K monitor would be nice. :toast:
