You have 500 dollars. What tech do you get?
Bonus points for how niche it is
>>52485966
idk a dac or amp i guess
maybe speakers if i can afford decent ones with 500
a microphone boom arm and shockmount, hdmi splitter
some wacom pen tips maybe
idk its not a lot of money desu
probably a used t420 and a new mouse + headphones.
i've been working toward this anyway, but i don't make much money after rent and food and all :(
A gtx950 and save the spare money.
Flashcarts for N64, SNES, and the real consoles to use them with from Ebay or Amazon.
>>52485966
An ECU for my Lincoln. The stock shift points on the MKS are pretty bad...
>>52485966
donate to templeOS development
>>52486015
>950
how can anyone even consider that ?
do you want to be able to play any games at all?
A low-ish end 1440p 144hz monitor
>>52485966
Parts for my shitboxes, or more shitboxes, and maybe a new GPU for one of my current shitboxes.
>>52485966
a nice korean monitor to replace my aging displays, other options could be an ssd, zowie ec1 and or a dac/amp
anime figures
>>52486044
I only play old games and CS:GO, also don't want to have a heavy loss of fps when there are 5+ smoke grenades on screen so a 950 will do.
I don't give a shit about "next-gen" shit or dx12 with spyware10.
Custom liquid cooling system for my main rig (finish it)
New cpu for my laptop, and an m.sata ssd for it. Maybe another motherboard.

5/6 of a certain CONSUMER MODEL VR HEADSET
>>52485966
A nice 10-keyless mechanical keyboard with custom keycaps to emulate the look of a 1990s dell quietkey.
And I'd spend the rest on sex toys and girly clothes.
FX-8350 and a new mobo with a SSD to replace my current 4770k crap.
>>52485966
500GB SSD for my Macbook (it's the old modular model, so I'd buy the drive from Newegg or B&H) and an external caddy for the old HDD. Anything left goes into the savings account.
I'm not an extravagant person right now.
>>52485966
Get new speakers in my wife's car (they're blown out)

Spending money on something that's worth pennies, literally pennies, and not making your own unlimited supply:
http://cansofbeans.tumblr.com/post/59612351399/making-nib-pens-tutorial-review
Been doing that for a few years now, off one roll of trimmer line that cost $9, if I'd paid for the actual Wacom nibs I'd have spent a thousand bucks.
>>52486284
reds, though i've considered simply buying a hhkb jp because it already looks like a drab 90s office keyboard

>>52486412
Anon asked about clothes. You're just a knob.
A VT220 and maybe a Dreamcast with the leftover.
>>52486426
you know exactly why he asked
and if you must know, i don't know yet.

>>52486443
No, you don't. And *you* brought it up. Nobody cares about you really.
One plus two, a phone for patricians.
>>52486443
Oh, come on. There are plenty of trapfags on /g/ who would just be honestly curious about what kinds of girly clothes one might get. Or maybe for ideas.
I'd get a Novena board. Or an X220 and a red plaid skirt. Been wanting one for a while.

>>52486464
Wow, I'm almost blown away from how much you "don't" care about me.
You've already replied to me 3 times, after all.
DRIVES
My craigslist is so bad for drives it's not funny. Everyone wants more than retail. And I can't afford the $65/$85 for a new 2TB/3TB.
I just put in an offer for $40 on someone's 2TB FAEX (they're asking $89 but it's been up a month). If I don't get it I don't know what I'll do. Finishing this encode will let me clear up 30GB of source DVDs, but adding 6GB of encodes to the pile isn't helping.
>>52486379

this is why your a virgin
>>52486491
about you. this was a thread about prospective, hypothetical purchases and you assume after you shit it up with irrelevant crap you think people are asking you for pictures of yourself (somehow wearing these hypothetically bought clothes). Why do so many trannies draw attention to themselves like that?
>>52486535
Because you keep replying to them, you fucking autist.
>>52486527
>Windows
>>52486412
I mean I was just hoping you'd tell me. Like I wouldn't have complained about pics but just say the clothes and imagination will do the rest.
>>52486486
See this anon gets it.
Also I'm debating as to whether or not I should get an x220 or x201 to replace my x220t.

You expect me to use Avisynth in WINE?
Face it, the best freetard software is Windows-only.

It's only $70, but shipping the antenna from USA and then paying customs on item value + shipping it would probably end up being nearly $200
>>52485966
A pc-98, though I don't know how much they're worth or what model to get.
Also I need to fix the NVRAM on a sun box, but that's supposedly just a bios battery socket glued on top of the NVRAM chip, not going to be expensive.
And then I need an SCSI card to get my tape drives to use. And some tape.
>>52488398
I actually saw a guy rolling around a tech convention with that.
It was actually pretty neat.

A used Thinkpad, a Raspberry Pi, some arcade machine parts and a some crappy junkyard monitor.

A strap-on. My wife want to fuck my ass. strap-on are technology.
>>52485966
A whole bunch of used CRT monitors. I already have one, but I need to get some spares because they aren't manufactured anymore. Literally all my life I've only ever used CRTs and I'm not about to fall for the flat meme until the standard resolution for everything becomes 4k or something.

Some scuba gear, new BCD I guess.

Provided I couldn't save it, I guess I'd buy a Yamaha TRBX 305, and use the rest for a halfway decent envelope filter. The 505 would cost about $500, but it actually doesn't sound as good as the 305.
I've already got a cheap ESP 5-string though, I'd rather save the money towards a German Warwick.
The new korg synth.
A Topre Realforce and a Fidelio X2, thanks to shills in the respective generals.
>Sennheiser HD650 + Massdrop O2+ODAC (if they do another run)
>AMD based HTPC, set up with Kodi and EmulationStation for dem games
>HHKB, decent mouse/trackball

>MiniDSP + UMIK1 for the HTPC if you already have a HTPC
At least that's what I'd do if I had the money and didn't already have all of these things (the MiniDSP bundle excluded)

Mint couduroy breeches from Kentucky or Pikeur. Real leather full seat all the way down to the feet.

At least with the beats you're producing something people would appreciate you for if you do it well.

Why go 950 when u can get 960 for the same price
>>52485966
Right now? I need a new fridge. I've been meaning to get a new phone this year, too.
Computer related? I've got almost everything now, maybe an amp to go with my DT880 that's currently in the mail. And a better mechanical keyboard, mine's just too large. And maybe a good desk mic.
>>52490833
In US maybe, not here.
>>52485966
A new computer case (HAF XB looks to be suitable), a proper workstation motherboard for my Xeon (ASUS P9X79 WS looks to be good), more ram, as 8GB isn't enough, a 120GB SSD, and maybe a bigger secondary monitor.
I'd probably get a solar laptop charger so I can produce shitty bleep bloop music on the top of a mountain all day.
Some dank headphones, a miku arcade controller and a mech keyboard I guess. The rest of the money goes towards cans of redbull and korean noodles.
>>52485966
old IBM keyboards and computers to play around with

I wonder when I'm going to just buy the fucking thing, it's not THAT expensive, but I can't really justify spending 150 or so on it.

Two new 6TB WD reds to add to my RAID array. Other than food and bills it's all I spend money on anymore.

A 4-port SAS RAID card with an Intel controller or a 2-port 10-Gbit Ethernet card
Can't decide which I want more
>>52492156
My main hobby is archiving digital media and I like seeing my array expand. I also name each new drive after an anime girl I like so I feel less alone the more I have.
Does a drumkit or an electric guitar count as technology?
>>52495639
i see no reason as why it would not count.
>>52495639
Everything ever that can be conceptualized, even on a purely theoretical basis, and which has been produced by or directly used by people is technology. An acoustic guitar is also technology, as are its strings and the techniques used to produce them.
>>52491066
Which mountain? Because some of them are very hard to get to the top of without getting killed.
>>52485966
I'd get an online checking/savings account with high interest dividends and put $500 into that.
denon ceol n9
>>52496053
Then I guess I'd get a drumkit (electronic, can't have a loud-ass acoustic one in an apartment building). Sucks being a drummer in a band but not being able to practice at home.
I built a PC recently so I'm not in the market for PC parts anymore
Studio monitors, headphones, interface, and microphone.
Whatever sufficient combination of those four that adds up to $500.

Probley some radios I've had my eye on a HT1250 for a while.
>>52486044
I had the same school of thought - I was gonna by an R9 390X, but switched last minute and bought a 950. I realised I don't need any more power than what it offers, and it can handle 60fps in everything I've thrown at it 1080p at least high, and easily 300fps in Source (which is what I really bought it for).
It's a decent card for the money. It's a decent card regardless

At this rate, I'll need another 6TB HDD by the end of this month.
