Stop buying $500 gtx580's and you'd have money for a joystick :p

Re: Get any good toys in the mail lately?
 

PFFT. I can live without the joystick, I can't live with subpar looking graphics!

Oh, I got that 580 btw, haven't had time to put it in and try it out due to working all weekend. Probably won't have time with midterms coming up, so maybe at the end of the week.

Also got a Corsair H60, got that installed and haven't had any problems with it so far. Quiet and efficient, so far cooling better than my CM H212+.

Hmm, lately, a while ago I got two extra 120mm fans (one in purple, one in red) to put in the side of Berserker, looks pretty cool (no pics though, I'm horrible with them). otherwise things on the tech ordering front have been slow lately, need the moneys first!

Looks like I might end up sending my 580 back, my motherboard is being dumb, and I don't know if it's going to be worth it to RMA it and get another one in favor of just getting a new motherboard/processor.

Sort of sad. I wake up this morning expecting things to be working, instead my motherboard decides to be a bitch and only have one RAM slot work.

if you dont want the dead mobo I'll take it :D
VRM zombify is calling its name (take vrm section from dead gtx480 and solder to board )

Re: Get any good toys in the mail lately?
 

I RMA'd it this morning (fastest return ever, out of the case within seconds, repackaged, and taken to UPS within an hour of giving up). I'll probably sell it, so I can just get a new motherboard and processor.

I wasn't looking forward to having to get a new motherboard and processor, but when life shits on you, you really have no choice.

Regarding joysticks I got a Saitek X52 Pro awhile ago. Very nice but a pain to set up.

Can't use it in BF3 however because DICE has the dead-zone all screwed up with no way to fix it despite claiming you could adjust it with the latest patch.

Anyone who says that the D14 is "large" needs to win an award for understatement of the year.

Spoiler tags dude, spoiler tags. =p

Didn't realise they'd made a specific one for failsocket... I mean 2011.

Re: Get any good toys in the mail lately?
 

It just came out so that must be why you haven't heard anything.
I also got first crack as far as I can tell for the review of it.

UPS man also just showed up with this bad boy
