What's on your hardware wish list ?

[John Naylor]

30 - 36", 2160p, 165 Hz, AUOptonics IPS 10 bit color screen w/ G-Sync and ULMB and the GFX card(s) to drive them > 80 fps in most games for < $1650. Will be an Social Security by then

Why wait, quit your job and make it happen today

For the first time in forever I don't need or really want anything. I have the best time I could want.

I'd like a lot of things hardware related (server and desktop) but with my 2 month old, partner and low wage, it's not going to happen although from work I was told I was moving up the chain a little and into the Infrastructure team which is definitely in the right way of things

Here's hoping that I can actually get a bit of a bump in my wages for the move and that I can grab a few things after paying off my credit card.. I do really enjoy my job at work but if the pay doesn't budge, then I might have to....

found a low profile,tenkeyless kb with mech switches at a very nice price, sharkoon purewriter TKL RGB. might pull the trigger soon.

i5 9600K for new gaming build and a Asus 27" PG278QR monitor for 1440p gaming

 

[rtwjunkie]

I want to ditch my 4790k platform for an i9-9900k, but no idea when. Lots of other household and car stuff needs my attention/money first.

 

[Deleted member 67555]

I want a 32" 4k HDR 165hz G-SYNC monitor and the appropriate GFX to drive it.

 

[cucker tarlson]

rats,that keyboard is not available in tkl anymore.

Updating when i deside more hardwares.

Another R9 290 (+ waterblock) and better DDR4 sticks.

 

[Deleted member 178884]

Well now that I've had a issue (dead 7740x) I can't be bothered with my x299 gaming carbon anymore, I'm selling it locally then I'll be either moving to the X299 Dark or a X299 Omega Extreme instead. I think I'll save for quite a good few months maybe till Christmas then I might even pickup an X399 setup too.

nice, but i still prefer normal mechanical keyboard since i got many keycaps

Waiting for a good deal on m.2 SSD so that I can move my OS to it from Sandisk Extreme 960GB SATA.

I could go for another pair of TridentZ RGB. The same 2x8, 3600 CL17 kit I have in this build now was going for ~$140 the other day. This is verified b-die! I already have a set of that exact kit. I'm amazed. You know what I paid for mine last year? $220. It's so tempting right now. I saw how they changed the design on the ones they showed at computex and I said to myself I better just grab the good-looking ones while I can, cuz those 'Neo' sticks are damned ugly. It's hard. I can't even put them in this machine because my cooler blocks one slot of the secondary pair. I just know I'm going to have two machines before too long and I would love to have more TridentZ for it.

Otherwise, it's all kinda vague. I know I want some Zen 2. I have a 2600 now, so I was thinking I might as well go bigger and grab the 3700x or even 3800x, depending on how it shakes down after some time out in the world. I want a better motherboard this time around... either the x570 Asus Crosshair or the AsRock Taichi. I lean towards the Asus just because I prefer thier bios, but those Taichi's have always really tempted me. Who knows, though?

I'd really like a 2080... maybe another Strix card, seeing as how my Strix 2060 has proven itself to be a really good card for me. But then...

...I'm contemplating going ham on the cooling for it... full custom loop with glass tubing. If I do that, my GPU selection is gonna be a little different.

Next would come a monitor upgrade. A 27" 1440p IPS with a decent refresh rate would suit me fine. Something for the 2080 to stretch into and something a little better than what I have now for photo editing.

It's all gonna come down to just how good these new Ryzen CPUs actually are. If they're truly badass, I'm gonna celebrate by doing it big. Life's good when you can think about throwing a few thousand at a new PC and not stress... I'm avoiding nailing anything down yet because I don't want to ruin anything for myself. By the time I'm pining over specific new things, I'm already about to buy them.

Hands down, Titan V

 

[Hnykill22]

BeQuiet Silent Loop 280mm for my new i7 9700K CPU. going for 5 GHZ so i need a good cooler. using 140mm Noctua fans with it.

 

[JovHinner123]

A new monitor for me, especially eyeing a 144Hz monitor. The higher refresh rates are what attracts me mainly, but of course it is costly and I should have a GPU to match. Just stuck reading about it on this article and other pages, for now.

 

[Sithaer]

A new GPU to finish my build for 3-4 years or so.
Looking at the Navi 5700 or the RTX 2060S,upgraded to a new 29" Ultra Wide monitor recently so I kinda need something with more 'juice' to stay at least in the Freesync range frames in new games.

Not exactly hardware but I'm also looking at a new chair since my current potato one is starting to fall apart+ruining the overall look of my build,something like the Nitro Concepts E220 Evo would be perfect for my needs.

 

[spectatorx]

At the moment to complete my current build must-buy are: 3x 4TB WD Ultrastar HDDs and top navi gpu, rx5900 or whatever these will be named, or two of these if i will be able to afford them, but this comes to optional list. My r9 380 was a decent card at its time but now is its time to retire. My current jbod of 2+1+1TB hdds needs to be replaced because of multiple reasons. Maybe i would put 2x4TB in raid and leave the third one as jbod, if such config is possible, anyway i think i will leave all three at jbod. I would need to read more about raid, dual boot with raid and some other details.
What is interesting Ultrastar series drives are cheaper than Black series, got the same length of warranty: 5 years and are enterprise grade so, at least in theory, are made of better components. WD some time ago replaced Gold series with Ultrastar and removed Gold from offer completely. So if anyone wonders which to choose between black and ultrastar i would recommend ultrastar.

List of optional items is much longer: as mentioned already, second gpu, just out of curiosity.
Also blu-ray burner, i'm still using physical media from time to time. Audio CDs, DVDs and maybe there will come some blu-rays once such burner will exist in my pc.
Aorus AD27QD for 27" ips 144Hz freesync. I'm happy with my current display (S24E370DL - 24", ips, 75Hz freesync) but more pixels and higher refreshrate are always welcome.
Another 32GB of ram so in total i could have 64GB, this would allow me to put more games on ramdisk. Yes, i actually use ramdisk for games which i can fit on it.
Maybe soundcard and even if most likely would be creative's AE-5. My x-fi titanium unit is 10 years old already and still sounds amazing so this as well would be just out of curiosity. I'm using old but still well enough 5.1 speakerset creative inspire t6100 and some random headphones when i need to be as quiet as possible at night.

And one more thing which lies between must-buy and optional categories: a gaming chair. I'm spending a lot of time on pc and regular chairs get flattened and squeaky after few months, lol. No, i'm not overweight, i have proper weight

 

[cucker tarlson]

I just saw enthoo mini xl and want it soooo bad.It's up there on my wish list along a quad m.2 card.

It'd be so nice to have my gaming system as the main one and an itx with i5 5675c + Fury X,for no reason other reason than just to have it,regardless of the fact that 4c/4t and 4gb cards are borderline in 2019.Hook the itx system up to a 240hz 1080p display and enjoy old shooters.

 

[cucker tarlson]

I wonder, if you there's something you're either willing to buy or just very, very curious to try out as far as PC hardware goes, what would it be ?

I've got two items on the list. First is alienware AW2518H 240Hz G-sync panel

Spoiler: ALIENWARE

second is the G903 mouse with the Powerplay wireless charging pad

Spoiler: G903

I've a huge itch to try them out and just be blown away by how smooth and comfortable the gaming experience would be. Plus both the monitor's and the mouse's aesthetics are so friggin rad

share what's on your wish list too

yay.I got the g903 and powerplay finally,after I poted this in the OP 2 years ago.

now I'd like a 4tb

to replace my two drives,especially the toshiba p300 3tb that's driving me crazy.it's loud,hot and worst of all takes forever to spin up.

now the 4tb seagate is a 2x2tb platter with 256mb buffer.fast,light and quiet.Plus I'm a seagate fan,cool name,and I was never disappointed with their drives.the 1tb I have now is amazing despite it's 5 years old.fast,cool and quiet.I'm keeping it for sure.The p300 is getting the f**k out through the window as soon as I replace it.worst hdd I ever had,and that includes the 6.4tb seagate I had in my first pc.


I'd like a 3700x system too but I'm slighlty scared seeing amd's new boost in work feeding the cpu over 1.45v on the regular,and when I'm asking people about this I get trashed by the moderator for not knowing about ampers.Wish to find someone to explain it rather than bash me for asking.

I have 4TB 2016 model (M005 rather than M004) it is 3x1.33 TB platter but still whisper quiet even under heavy load. Can't imagine about 2 platter.
