Blimey O riley!!!!!

I have the itch already to upgrade my current set-up after like 2 weeks. Benchmarks get very addictive!

Why is it so addictive :(

Should be able to sort out my urge soon LOL!

But in the last month i have bought.

2500k
New mobo
New SSD
New Ram
New Keyboard
New mouse
New case
New fans
New GPU

LOL - When does it stop, when you are poor LOL

:D

Any funny upgrade stories.

EG - Buy a gpu then 2 weeks later upgrade lol
 
Psu, extra ram, CPU cooler. Then CF.

BUT!

I bought an antec 300 just to go back to a tower. I wasn't really planning on CF etc.

So now I want a mahosovie case to show of my GPU's lol. Had the antec for like 3 weeks lmao.

i think what you need is a time consuming project or mod for your computer. not sure what that might be, but it might cure your upgradeitis for a while

i've been considering making my own case based on the features i like of all the raven cases (i have an amazing workshop at my disposal at uni)

Well I was planning an epic build over winter. But then I had to quickly get parts. As u know I am noob and killed my mobo.

So custom case sounds like an epic idea. Need a massive one I can strip down etc.

Yo da man reaper dude!!

6pm and drunk. Best make sure I am good :D

i dont think hes trolling, i think he means that you still feel like a child, everytime you get a new toy, you just keep wanting more and more.

If I have to interpret a post, it is trolling in my eyes. Just to state that is trying to cause an argument, or get a reply from the OP.

what are we going to do with you?

You clearly need a mahosive 100% modular PSU.

I do for airflow needs.

Your life will have an empty hole if you dont crossfire another 6950.

I think a puppy somewhere just died :( I have to crossfire.

And the case, sheeesse!! will not do at all.

Again, i think the world will explode if I don't change it soon.

I was thinking of waiting for new tech. But i have been on socket 775 for like years and years. So thought it's about time. I find most people wait and wait and wait. Then something else comes along LOL

Your current setup is a very nice upgrade from s775.

Regarding funny upgrade stories. I bought a brand new seasonic s12 600w psu, first time i turned it on it blew up, i hit the rear switch, nice blue flash and a loud bang, followed by part of my finger nail being singed. My dog was in the room (he was a gundog), heard the bang and went ballistic, thought there was something for him to retrieve.

LOL - Epic haha, shame about the psu :(

Just spied some really cheap 2.1 speakers on special :o
 
Problem is my desk surface is tiny. I want to get a bigger desk. But it's quite hard. Limited on space. My desk is only a bit wider than a standard keyboard.

But it is something I want to look into.

I swear Stulid is on the payroll for OCUK :p
