Images of items I have purchased (except trainers [no feet pics]) - Do NOT use imgur, postimage or imgbb!

So I bought something a bit different for my PC. A Corsair iCUE Touch Companion.

I haven't gotten around to messing about too much with it in terms of macros etc but set up a basic panel of CPU temp/GPU Temp, PUBG and Modern Warfare shortcuts and the time. Will mess around with this more at the weekend but I'm really impressed with it, great little device.

Just taken delivery of mine but in white (in case you could not tell from the photo). Getting ready for a Zen 3 (Ryzen 4000) build, need to start looking at watercooling parts now.

Probably the same, going to wait to see what Ryzen 4000 looks/costs like, and then probably a 3080 looking most likely, unless AMD pull something out the bag with their GPU's. Wife is going to get me some parts for Christmas, so I'll probably get the rest then, going to get some case fans next though, as I currently only have AIO CPU cooler as the ventilation.
 
Cheers for that.

Good call on the fire pit, it's very similar to ours, i'm a big fan of the big bowl style as opposed to a chimnea. I went for a "rust" one so it doesn't look crap when it inevitably goes rusty :D

No probs at all and yeah this is "raw" steel for the same reason :D

That's a smart bit of kit, I don't know much about them as I've never seen them before, is it all touch screen etc

It certainly is, you set up multiple screens etc and swipe between them with all Corsair iCUE enabled components/accessories having their own screen automatically.

It's all touch screen and you can configure the screens through iCUE. Over the length of the screen you can have up to 6 touch screen buttons which is nice and also can have animated backgrounds etc too as it supports gifs.

Also it supports mounting to Corsair Keyboards (well certain models) but the stand is absolutely fine for my setup and I've just stuck it behind the keyboard.

As I've said I haven't messed about fully with macros etc but so far it's impressed me a lot.

Sounds like a good purchase I'm tempted by it... Can you create shortcuts for games etc so you just tap the bar instead of clicking on screen with the mouse :) I'm lazy like that :p

Yes, that's exactly what I have set up. PUBG and MW being examples with PUBG being slightly more complex as if you use the .exe file it doesn't load properly through steam. So had to use the steam shortcut (which is a URL) to launch it but this is an option by selecting Microsoft Edge to launch the steam URL for the game and it works without issue.

The way I've set up the icons on the touch screen is actually by using a background image for each with no icon or display text and simply the command to open game. Looks nice and clean that way.

I'm going to set up a few application/game dedicated screens. Especially for the websites I use on a regular basis that I can load immediately from the touchbar once set up :)

Your selling it to me... That sounds perfect, I'll watch some youtube videos on it but sounds ideal

Just checked, it's out of stock in the places I've seen :( is there anything like this made by others

Not sure...I haven't seen anything really like it to be honest. As far as I know stock was expected end of this month so it should start popping up soon, keep an eye out. I just got lucky with an order :)

I was looking at the Elgato stream deck but don't think that is anything like what I want... I will keep an eye out for them to come back in stock.. Cheers bud
 
Biking accessories!

USB charging lights. The CATEYE Orb is used just up to dusk really, the big one is for longer night rides. 1200 genuine lumens so plenty bright when needs be.

And some chain guard to stop damage from chain slap.
