What's on your hardware wish list ?

Desktop SFF with good specs and really clever cooling and design.
 
This Year
Zen APU/Vega CPU
itx Mobo (AsRock)
16GB DDR4 4000MHz RAM

Next Year
Zen 2.0
AM4+ Mobo,
16GB DDR4 3200MHz +Memory.
New Mechanical Keyboard
 
forgot to add 2x LG 22" 1920x1280 to do a epic surround!

Regards,
why go 3x22" 1080p when there's this available


this thread was never about the money...

Actually after reading your adventures with your CPU I wouldn't mind tracking one down.

watch this video


7900X sucks 20% more power than 6950X while in gaming it's not faster at all, 7820X sucks 40% more power than 6900K while it's just marginally faster. You can oc the 6900K from the all core turbo boost of 3500MHz to 4400MHz easily, which is a 25% boost. On 7820X you can do 4800MHz from the factory turbo boost of 4Ghz (all 8 cores), which is 20%, and that comes with insane temperatures. And only 28 lanes on 7820X is an insult added to injury. For gaming 6950X and 6900K just destroy Skylake-X conterparts.

Once again, Intel is fooling the consumer with higher clocks.

triple curve monitors, and another cheap mechanical keyboard, but gosh i need to save more $$$ and stopping myself to buy these stuff:D:kookoo::eek::D

Don't feel bad. I just bought a mechanical keyboard a couple of months ago (Corsair Vengeance)..... spilled Coke on it today...

Then bought another :banghead:

Wish list :
Vega 56 or a GTX1080.
A good RAM module with good CL timings that is not PITA with Ryzen.
A decent M.2 Drive
Galaxy Note 8 :oops:
 
790X-UD4P that works. :p
 
RyZen R7 1800x
32GB DDR4 4000
Crosshair VI Extreme
Vega 64 8GB
a nice 80+ platinum 850W full modular PSU

Well in that case I'll take an 18-core i9 7980XE paired with a nice GTX1080Ti :D:p

I'm sure I can afford it someday..... I just need to wait 10 years or so...:ohwell:

FFS, you just found my new monitor, thanks!

Seems like AMD fanboy stuff to me. Did they test CPU-only power use or full system? Ah, full system? they suck bawls, as I mentioned in another thread, only costs $100 to get a proper tool to measure CPU-only power use, and because they do what they do, is a write-off. IF they can't do that, they should not be doing CPU reviews, IMHO.

Enermax Revolution SFX 650W.

I want the smallest possible PSU for my build.
 
A Threadripper or an EPYC (2P) system to crunch with! :cool:
Same thing plus a nice 4k monitor and a Vega or 1080Ti to game @ 4k
 
:D

K6-II 550
Asus P5A
3DFX Voodoo 5 6000
 
Well, I got a i3 4130 for a decent price, so i think I will get the Aerocool CS-101 and the Kolink SFX-450. As for the GPU... There are low profile GTX 1050ti's , but I can't imagine them being quiet, and I don't really need mich GPU power so i'll probably go for a passive GT1030, or possibly a GTX 1050 if I can find a good deal. Then I would probably have my dream system, if I get a decent sound card.

With a MSI B85M-E45 and 4x4GB DDR3 from the old, shelved system.
 
I really need to get an SSD. An upgrade for my 780ti wouldn't be bad either.
 
lolz @P4-630

4k HDR OLED big monitor @ 120hz +
 
a VR set. HTC Vive or Oculus Rift----all roomscale. Together with a Madcatz Saitek X52 Pro

I wouldn't mind a CPU/chipset upgrade. i7-2600k is still going strong @4.5GHz but It's nice to have a new Ryzen or Coffeelake CPU(hopefully that can reach 5Ghz)
 
You do NOT ask for much....
working in a warehouse moneys hard to come by lol. I'm just getting some items so I can bring my G780 back to life after a bad bios flash so I can have a gaming laptop again. Now I'm using a Lenovo T410 that has metal hinges and a tiny joystick type mouse button thing in the middle of the keyboard as a backup incase the touch-pad dies. It also has a keyboard light, pretty smart design in my book.

This looks like something I might get later though and be able to upgrade it by buying allot of Raspberry pi's to connect together. Turning on and off devices, lights, and computers (by adding IR fuctionality) and a hub is the next step.
