What's on your hardware wish list ?

[Deleted member 178884]

I found since having my Ti's I need new monitors and that's just going to be expensive!!

Sadly that's the classic case of "research before you buy" - anything under 4k with 1080 ti sli? Your basically paying for pathetic gains and it'll suck hard, Sli is awesome regardless, You could sell your 3 displays and grab a high res one.

I had a GTX 1070 before hand and whilst it was working ok in some games it wasn't quite up to spec.. So when I saw the 1080 Ti's I decided I'd grab two and go from there.. Thing is, ultimately they are for my daughter and girl friend's PC's, eventually the 1080P screens will have to go and 1440P will be bought as a minimum

At the moment I'm just using a single card but too much to buy and not enough spare cash to buy it all is my problem not so much the lack of research...

TR 2950X + ASUS Prime X399-A + some good ol' RAM

Realistically, a Phenom II x6 to replace the Athlon II x4 and a Q9450 or better to replace the Q6600 would be neat.

In lala land, I'll take a Threadripper 2990WX, the fanless 600w Seasonic, a neat SATA M.2 drive, a few large hard drives for RAID, and two 2080Ti for mining. That's one hell of a Plex server, WCG cruncher and a little mining side hustle. And if I have to transcode anything, that chip would be more than capable...

I have a Thuban 1055T available if that is what you are looking for.

Nothing for me really. I can do what I do on a 9$ PC called Chip. I don't like new games, and don't play anything, and basically everything except that can be done on a toaster. What I would really like is some hacker proof OS with all the modern goodies, like flash and bluetooth and stuff. OpenBSD is just a pain for me.

New monitor for myself so I can finally give my daughter/wife my current monitor for their Dell T3500. And I wouldn't mind an AMD Ryzen setup too but that is going too far and my current setup is fine so a 4790K would be a nice touch instead.

 

[Staba]

An ultrawide monitor Acer predator Z35p
And an Evga 3080Ti for sure, next year when it ll be available....

 

[hat]

I just remembered something. I actually wouldn't mind a new full tower case, one without all the fancy windows and lights. I like a plain, yet functionally awesome case. This case would have to support a nice 240 or 280 AIO cooler, like the Corsair h100/h110/h115 etc...

My neighbour has a sum of money incoming and decided to reward me with 4GB of ram when he gets the doe. All I will need after that is some gpu, and am thinking about selling my cpu and mobo and case and getting a integrated cpu itx mobo, with a pcie slot, a putting a kalmx gpu inside an itx case. A quite silent pc.

My wishlist contains:
1) some additional tools for the Mother-32 and my other analog synths (for example some adapters, a pair of adsr... nothing too fancy, I don't have a modular yet and I'd avoid it if possible - by the way I don't have room for it).
2) a nice front end for tracking (I have some preamps and compressors, but I'd like some more, with different colour); I especially need an equalizer for tone shaping.
3) a poly analog (a Prophet 6 would be really nice, but I feel bad spending all that money... maybe one day I'll take the plunge and buy the rack version, but not anytime soon).
4) a spring reverb
5) a serious drum machine (something by Vermona or MFB).

Except for (1), which I need to get best out of what I already own, the others are not going to happend anytime soon, both because of lack of space and also because of their price (I already spent a lot on my setup, so I need to draw a line and make some music).

On the other hand, if I had unlimited resources (both money and space), then I'd get a few huge modular synths, a high-end console, some high end outboard, some expensive analog synths (both modern and classic), top notch converters and monitoring... the sky would be the limit!

looking for a small,tenkeyless keyboard with quiet keys (preferably low profle) and a big,comfortable wrist rest.
any recommendation?

 

[Deleted member 178884]

Well currently, I've got a dead i7-7740x and killed the main bios of my x299 gaming carbon, starting the great save for a 7980xe used and a new x299 omega extreme : )

god damn,what happened.I never killed a cpu in my life despite trying.

wouldn't you prefer a binned 7940x over a 7980xe ? I would.

Up on the top is currently the whole Pentium D line-up, followed by all of the C2Ds

I'm betting that the liquid metal had spilt over somehow and shorted the CPU, as for the board the clear cmos button on the i/o (poor place to put that) got hit by accident with the system on when it was working fine.....
As for a 7940x, a binned one would cost more than a used 7980xe at least here it would.

Im waiting for the following to arrive:

Lian Li PC-011 Dynamic white
Noctua NH-C14S
3set Thermaltake riing 140mm RGB fan
3set Thermaltake riing 120mm RGB fan

Razer BlackWidow Tournament Edition Chroma V2 seems to be pefect for what I need,but the price.....

 

[Easy Rhino]

I would like to add 2 more 8 gig sticks to my setup and go from the i5 to i7. My board supports it which is nice. Also, want to buy a second 512 SSD. I am doing a lot more VMWare Workstation Pro stuff and having the extra ram/cpu thread and a separate disk space for VMs would be really nice.

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

Quite a lot tbh.
Tr 1920X
DDR 4x32Gb
Nvme ssd
1600watt psu ,i have a Vega.
5xsecond hand rx580

But what im really itching about is me chair, Im getting a new pc chair but can't decide between normal office y type or one of those playtech car racing seats with pedal and wheel mounts.
I am thinking i don't like sitting at a desk at home anyway and the car seat looks more comfortable.

So car seat won , nothing else did since I spent a lot on Wc fittings.
Now I Need a , ,, no two new monitors an ultrawide and a 4k 144hz one too.
And i definitely Need A R9 3800X too

Might need a second job too, haha might.

I was going to suggest that and the Deathstalker.

black widow
Low profile chiclet keys and no loud clicky clanky and RGB... drawback Razer synapse and Razer control center are required to be running to get RGB or profiles.

problem is that thing is 600pln while I'd like to keep it at 350pln max.
It's a fantastic keyboard it seems but so is my deatstalker,the widow would be an upgrade but not that big.
For 600pln I can get cloud alpha heaphones with x-fi card and absolutely blow away whaty I currently have.

Ikr.... They occasionally go on sale but even then it's not much of a sale.
I had the original Black Widow until my daughter used it as a jumping board...
Best keyboard ever imo...I still have my Deathstalker tho.

I'm getting that itch and part of me really wants to get a Threadripper 2950X, but deep down I feel like I should wait.
