I bought a reference XFX 480 8GB with the backplate, sent it back once it arrived due to the power concerns (which seem to be bunk now).

Doesn't matter anyway as one of our family friends upgraded to a 1070 and gave me his old 970 for free which was awesome. Saved me $270 right there, just waiting on newegg to get it back. Guess I'll sit on this thing until December then get something really great instead.

Also got another SSD and moved all my hard drives to my server, set those extra two drives as another mirrored pool with ZFS so I have about 1.7TB of space to play with, but nothing to do with it. At least it's out of my desktop and actually usable though.

I got o rings for my mechanical keyboard.

I know it's probably not what you were asking for, but since by definition it's hardware I'm posting it.

I just bought this new chair. Construction is really nice and it's very comfy for the price ($180).

I know it won't last as long as the super high quality chairs, but by the time I do feel confident that this one will last long enough for me to casually save up the $800 to buy the other one.

Hopefully you learned your lesson

Waiting for the Strix 1080 OC to get back in stock.

Can't wait to upgrade. Never doing SLI again.

Got this for $250 CAD along with the free Total War Warhammer which I'll sell anyway. Easily worth it to me considering the RX 480 is gonna be $350 CAD+ for actual non-meme versions.
