What is your biggest case of buyer's remorse?

i7 4790k
The hardware keyboard for Jolla. I was promised a n900 quality keyboard and got a hunk of shit.
As if it wasn't bad enough, I even bought it overpriced from ebay.
>>54943171
I didn't actually think I would break it, but here we are
i want to fuck someone with that face/hair. is that so wrong?
>>54943228
This, and my whole desktop computer actually.
I hardly do something that requires that cpu. I would be fine with a i3, and a medium end graphics card.

What happened, lad?
>>54943290
We told you, we fucking told. MSI are known for
Poor build quality
Worse customer service
Even worse cooling
And terribad hinges
So, which one got you? The hinges, overheating or just the general build quality?

I was at AT&T and I let them convince me to start paying $80/mo for it on their service. Everything about this conflicts with my better judgement.
Now I'm dealing with how stupid I feel until it's paid off so I can never have anything to do with AT&T again.
A brand new Asus ROG laptop a few years ago. Used it for watching YouTube in my recliner, still used my desktop PC for gaming. I could have gotten same value from a netbook but instead I spent 1700 on a laptop that collected dust.

Tech related: The Wacom Bamboo tablet I bought 4 years ago. I never use it.
Non-tech related: Pic related. It's not a bad figure but the manga ending sucked and I was never too much in the series anyway.
>>54943319
I think I fried the graphics card. Haven't had the time to try ripping it out yet. It doesn't boot, which tells me I just need to try ripping stuff out until I find what stopped working
>>54943606
>>54943633
Yes, I'm a fool. The HTC 10 hadn't been announced at the time though.
If I could sell the S7 and cancel AT&T today I would but I don't know if I could find anybody willing to buy the damn thing.
>i bought a brand new thinkpad
>>54943676
>I think I fried the graphics card.
>>54943331 here. You didn't fry shit, those things fry themselves. Return it if you can, get your money back and DON'T SPEND IT ON ANOTHER GAMING LAPTOP.
Yes, I'm speaking from experience. Don't contact MSI, contact Amazon. Don't open it, you won't be able to fix it and even if you do it'll just break again anyway.
>>54943382
>Moved to V-Modas and an O2 amp/dac
brofist.
>>54943171
I have been away from /g/ for a while.Whos this new Maki replacement?
>>54943331
It has an overclockable CPU and I ran stress tests when I tweaked it, but I didn't run stress tests when I OC'd the graphics card, so I think it was literally just my stupidity.
Also
>overclocking a laptop
I was told not to from the start
Nexus 4 and Koss Porta-Pros. Have mostly been buying Apple stuff recently so no reason to be upset.
>>54943171
Ati Radeon HD 5850
Still using it..
I was just a kid thinking about muh gayms back then. Ended up not playing gayms much anyway... And now I have to deal with this 150w card running 24/7 on my system. open source drivers are piece of shit and I get a black screen If I don't disable power management module in kernel args. which means the card is running at full clock all the time.
Also amd proprietary driver is an even worse piece of crap with terrible desktop performance
>>54943751
Third party upgraded. My money is RIP but I'm just gonna get a $1000 laptop and $1500 desktop to replace it in a month

>so I think it was literally just my stupidity
For the third time in this thread, MSI are INFAMOUS for having inadequate cooling. I know you want to like the idea of a gaming laptop but just stop and look at what you actually have. It's already broken once, it will break again. You can do the oven trick and give your GPU another two-ish months if you do it right or you could fry it permanently with no hope of warranty. You could buy a replacement GPU, this will be an MXM card and will probably cost you insane amounts of money.
>>54943834
Then your money really is gone. How much did you spend on this venture in total? Three thousand dollars after the upgrade, perhaps?
>>54943299
why even waste money on a graphics card if you're not gaming?

I'm not >>54943676 but is it a bad idea to buy the ASUS laptops that are technically marketed as "gaming laptops" because they have Nvidia cards and extra RAM?
Basically I'm looking to spend $600-700 max on a laptop for casual fucking around and playing autism blocks with my friends. I can't build a desktop in my current environment.
Fuck you janitors/mods, I just got back home now I want those webm's
>>54943911
>Basically I'm looking to spend $600-700 max on a laptop for casual fucking around and playing autism blocks with my friends
Just make sure it has a bunch of RAM and a sorta-new cpu.
GTX 1080. Its barely faster than my overclocked 980Ti which i sold for cheap thanks to recommendation of shills on /g/. Its loud and hot as fuck also. Nvidia - never again.
>>54943945
>buying the FE
Don't blame anyone else, you're the retard
>>54943171
thinkpad x220
literally deprecated piece of shit
>>54943954
Are you telling me that non FE 1080GTX will be faster than mine by significant amount?
>>54943911
Generally speaking it's a bad idea to get a laptop with any dedicated GPU, especially if they're going to be light and thin. If you want a laptop with a dedicated GPU, get a portable workstation or get ready to replace it in three years or less.
>>54943870
Just $2300. Companies sell on amazon their own listings of upgraded laptops excaliberpc did the upgrade and it's under their warranty, but OCing voids that. Also I used to have a $1500 msi apache but I gave it to my girlfriend. She games constantly and doesn't have any issues with it and it's at least a year old. I wouldn't say their cooling's perfect, but it hasn't been bad before i went overboard into the desktop replacement meme
>>54943978
Yes, and cooler and quieter ya dingus
>>54943978
No. Maybe a few percent, don't tell the fanbois tho.
>>54943350
criminally underrated
>>54943978
no, but it wont be loud and itll run cooler, thus OC headroom.
gtx 670, never buying Nvidia again
>>54943641
Oh this again
Nobody with money uses an i5. Get over it. The meme is dead.
>>54943414
I got a T440 with i3.
I was happy with it, last month I sold my desktop with i7 4770k because the T440 does everything fine.
>>54943171
LG G4, not because it sucked, it was great, but i got it wet 2 weeks after buying it and it died. 370€ to the fucking trash
Intel PC stick.
Turns out I could get an rpi3 for 1/3 the price
Fuckers.

You deserve it
>>54943985
A whole year? Wow, that's amazing! </sarcasm>
It probably won't last much longer. If it's still on their warranty then return it on their warranty. Don't mention the overclocking, don't mention what you think is wrong, just tell them that it stopped working and you have no idea why. Play stupid and pitiful and you will get sympathy.

rpi is shit, I have 2 of them
Nokia Lumia 900. Worst buy ever. I thought it'll be a great jump into the windows world, only to find out it's stuck at 7.8, and didn't upgrade to 8.0 because of boot loader.
ThinkPad t61
I bought a GT 640 in 2013 for my first build and I was stuck with it for 3 years.
>>54943985
Msi cooling is bad.
My 600 dollars laptop reaches 80 C while playing civ5 at mid settings.
>>54944085
Not in my situation. I already have a desktop and I only need said pc stick to be connected to my TV (I quit my cable service a while back and now it's only connected to UHF antenna). Basically I want to use my tv to browse 4chan and watch random youtube videos.
Turns out I could do the same with rpi3.
>>54944076
It's okay, I'm not sweating it. One faulty laptop that only breaks after doing something that could cause it to break isn't gonna convince me a company's shit. It's a shame it's the most I spent on a tech item that I've broken, but it's not the end of the world and I've got no one to be upset with
>>54943981
Thanks, that makes sense but I've never heard it before. Time for more research.

Alienware laptop
Lenovo G50
My lenovo thinkpad got fried due to me tripping on the coord and pulling it from my desk. I sent it to lenovo, and they gave me a full refund and I could choose a new laptop. They discontinued the version of the thinkpad I broke, so I got a G50 thinking it wouldnt be that bad, but holy hell

It just sits in my closet because i bought a t420 to replace it.

G50-45. Life is suffering since i cant afford a new PC right now. I've even had yo resort to super glue to keep it together because the screws broke the plastic that held them in.
I remember going through noroot on an s4. At&t is obviously still up to their locked bootloader bullshit. I just wanted it for GSM and there's a reason for the international version of the same phone costs more

Try and throw together $200. You can get a nicely spec'd t420 or maybe t430. Just get the 1600x900 screen. All $400 new laptops are going to be shit. I wish i would have found /g/ before buying my -80.
