My GTX founder's Edition collection:

And I have two more in working systems.
I need to rearrange a bit.
Missing the GTX 1050 , GTX 1070Ti ,
and the Titan Xp Galactic Empire and the Titan V, which are next to impossible to get hands on.

I don't think I am going to collect the RTX cards.

Wow this thread is just full of awesome isn't it?!

@15th Warlock I think we might be better off with thumbnails for pictures next time if that's ok? That took some scrolling down!! Massive thanks for sharing with us tho!!

Yes this thread is awesome! And I'm really sorry! Yes I want to convert the pics to thumbnails, is there a way to convert what I already uploaded to thumbnails? Sorry for the silly question.

It's not a problem like that I don't think once you've posted the pictures that you can change them into thumbnails but feel free to edit the post and re-upload them if you so wish to do so It's not the end of the world at all if you don't Makes me feel the need for a 4k screen even more so to be honest!!

 

[biffzinker]

If the photos are uploaded to TPU all you need to do is edit the post and delete the full size photos for the thumbnail button next to the full image button.

 

[stinger608]

You can also put them in a spoiler.

["spoiler" another bracket then [forward slash "spoiler"]

Spoiler

Comes out looking like this

Thanks everyone! I was able to return this thread to sanity!

LOL, yeah, that worked out good.

You can also include several spoiler tags if you want to break up the pictures. Not necessary but you could if you wanted to. You can also name the spoiler tag using "name" in quotations. Just use the = after spoiler and then "name" after the = sign.

Spoiler: name

See how it works. LOL

Updated my collection this week with these two relics: Sony MZ-R55 and MZ-R35, I'm really digging the R-55, feels better than the R-35, these two have joined the MZ-NH600 and the other I think is an R900...
Nothing beats the feel of a classic Sony player, big, heavy and solidly built, cant find quality like this anymore...

I tried looking at the post but I didn't see that option, but then must be an option for the person who posted it I'm guessing as I tried one of my own posts and I was able to do so
Thanks @biffzinker for being the star and savour!!

 

[R-T-B]

For unknown reasons, I have a collection of quite a few 78RPM Edison Diamond disc records and a complete Diamond Disc record player from the 1910's in my closet.

They aren't normal 78RPM records, they were proprietary to Edison company and couldn't be played on other players due to the grooving being cut differently (they also are really 80RPM, not 78). They aparenty are rare because due to the cardboard core content people would burn them to stay warm during the great depression (how's that for a fun story?)

I bought it at a garage sale on a whim. It mostly sits, but technically I can crank it up and listen to godawful music. I wish I knew what to do with it now, honestly. The player is worth about $500 I think and costs about that much to ship.

I'll post pictures later if you all ask nicely.

I wish I had access to my dad’s vinyl collection and his old turntable. I would love to see pics of your collection.

I miss MiniDisc. It was a great format!

 

[MIRTAZAPINE]

A lot of Sony technology is ahead of its time but Sony control and lock down on them limit what was a very capable device. Mini disc was around when HDD space is barely past 10GB imagine carrying a desktop like size music in your pocket.

 

[jormungand]

Let me join the group...
edit, sorry i needed to delete some cuz of pg18 gonna edit those little marks then ill post again sorry

 

[lexluthermiester]

Less than that. The largest HDD you could buy when MD was first a thing was 2GB.

 

[djisas]

And then came the 1GB minidisc's, it was Sony's stop gap measure vs the rise of the MP3 and the birth of the ipod...
Nowadays, even with a soundcloud subscription and a smartphone, this baby right here is my go to audio player, at 12 yo, it plays as good as the day I bought it and i never run out of battery once in this time, it always gets me to my destination and back...
One day I will retire it, for a modern sony device...

Yesterday I spent a few hours figuring out how to record a minidisc to play on the R55, it was The prodigy-experience from 1992, the first minidisc I listened on a borrowed MZ-R35 back in the day and the first I recorded myself over 20 years later, all that effort to enjoy 70m of music...
And let me tell you, it doesnt sound any worse than any fancy iphone\sammy equivalent...

 

[MIRTAZAPINE]

Damn I was too young to remember how far ahead are optical disc technology versus hdd. Back in eaerly 2000s I was blown away by he space a dvd can hold. 4.7GB may not sound much now but hdd then are barely bigger amd much more expensibe. You could buy a whole "cake" of dvd disc. Getting a "cake" of 50 disc makes me so happy.

Sadly optical diac technology is on the way out wtih Bluray another amazing tech for its day too. I wish disc techology like holographic disc with theoritical space 2TB is made out or even better 5D Dvd technology which uses glass disc to embed information in the glass itself estimated space 360TB way beyond even our best HDD currently at 20TB.
