If you don't mind giving some feedback on the controller. I looked at that one before purchasing a Logitech F710 instead...

Just too bad if I wanted to use it on my desktop PC for gaming, I'd need to buy a blue tooth dongle first because it doesn't come included... :ohwell:

Anyways it's main purpose is for use with Samsung Gear VR.

I hate that.. The dongle thing. I guess your mobo doesn't have Bluetooth?

I just bought a corded Windows controller to go with my purchase of Forza Horizon 3 - I had a Logitech wireless but after so many years I'm tired of dealing with batteries, dongles, drivers, etc. I don't regret it at this point. I don't use it every day so when I want it I just plug it in.

That Steelseries is very nice though.

That's right, my mobo doesn't have bluetooth. :ohwell:

However for PC gaming I have a wireless xbox360 controller which works fine still, I don't mind much about dealing with the batteries, I buy big packs of duracell batteries once in a while.

I just can't test this new controller on my PC yet, I may buy a dongle later on but it's not a priority.

Slightly surprised @Knoxx29 doesn't have a black Labrador or German Shepard. So what's his name?

Edit: Nice water chiller btw, looks familiar from another thread.

@Nicholas Peyton has a HC - 500A Version.

Well to me it looks like the dogs had enough of that box, watching you take shit out of it then another box and put shit back in a box.

Looks kinda like it me time now.

beginning of a new year ...

hum ... since my mother is bored of her Honor 4X and want a phone with a metal back and fingerprint scanner ... i am thinking of giving her my Honor 5X ...

since i could not go back to the 4X i decided to order that one ....

Honor 7 versus Honor 4/5X a little step up in power with a step down in screen size (bah ... -0.3" is nothing to fret over ... :laugh:

)

confirmed, packaged, ultra priority shipping... too bad tomorrow i work from 7:30AM to 4PM (maybe 3PM ... if my colleague are nice with me since i replace someone who is sick

) i guess i'm going to fetch it in the afternoon (if the post does not deliver it directly to my box :ohwell:

)

hum ... bare phone is nice, it has a good look but ... oh well let's add that... (longer shipping time tho :oops:

between 23 to 40 days ... no biggies

)

569GS-Turk-Anime-Tv-Shotgun-Girls-Hard-White-Case-Cover-for-Huawei-P6-P7-P8-Lite.jpg

annnnndd crap ... i just noticed while writing that post, my Etailer just got the Honor 6X in stock today a short while after i ordered the Honor 7 :banghead:

i wouldn't have to ditch 0.3", would get a dual cam and 32gb instead of 16 :roll:

... thought the SOC would have been a Kirin 655 versus Kirin 935 (although the 655 would have the 16nm argument in his favor over the 28nm of the 935 :cry:

but half the GPU power ...

)

oh ... positive point in favor of the Honor 7 ... it has the Gyroscope the Honor 6X lack

great i will be able to use my Shinecon VR headset with mouseview on head movement :laugh:

(ah... another point in favor of the H7 ... NFC ... )

Jetster · Jan 10, 2017

I bought this about 6 months ago. I use the crap out of it not to mention everyone that comes over charges something while they are here
It has a 50w PSU and adjust to what ever you plug into it.

Is that the hard cider or the beer? Seems popular at work, sells out usually.

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Jan 11, 2017

Stella Artois is lager beer......it was £ 3.09 for a pint which is $ 3.78

Stella do a Cidre as well (though we spell it Cider) and the UK makes the best cider so i would never buy a Stella Cidre.

dorsetknob · Jan 11, 2017

proper Rough Cider that's the Stuff straight from the Farm not that factory made stuff

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Jan 11, 2017

when i went to Glastonbury for the first time (1984) me and my mate bought 5 gallons of rough cider off a farmer looking guy ............we got so pissed my mate fell asleep standing up while we were listening to The Cure. When we looked at the cider the next morning it had turned black so we didnt drink any more..........i am sure that shit was from Dorset.

radrok · Jan 11, 2017

Swapped my PSU for a better one and pump setup cause one of my PMP-400s has stopped working.

Gonna get ready for dual 1080TI or Vega.
