Post A Picture of Your Last Purchase

Well my uncle in Berlin heard of my tax woes and that I had to sell my 2080 Ti for funds so he ordered me a 2080 Ti FE from Nvidia's store and gave me the login info to track the order along with a message "Merry early Christmas nephew and never sell hardware, The pcmr does not approve :p"

You and your tales... :P

haha, that's awesome. I couldn't imagine any of my uncles even knowing what a video card is or knowing what pcmr means! Does he want to adopt any new nephews? :D

My uncle is pretty awesome, Last Christmas he sent me an Amazon voucher for 1000 euro and said "buy shiny stuff" ^_^

My uncle is only 60 and very tech literate, He's an uber audiophile and spends literal thousands a year on just headphones, Amps/Dacs etc...

I believe we are long lost family members Dice. I think your uncle is my long lost father I never knew, I think the least he can do is buy me a 2080ti to make up for it :D
 
So shinyitus must be hereditary then eh Dicey?


My uncle is worse ^_^

Quite impressed with the 2080 Ti FE though, As it's the binned 300A chip, Which Nvidia keep for themselves and expensive AIB's, The out of the box clocks are damn nice and a lot better than the blower Zotac I had, stays around the 1900 mark with only moving the power slider up and not touching volts or clocks.

What resolution is that and what software you using for the screen overlay?


2560x1440P max settings, Software is a mix of Afterburner, Hwinfo and RTSS to actually display it all, Afterburner just displays the time and FPS, Hwinfo displays anything and everything you want, Highly customisable.

Can't see the model name. And you bought the old Threadripper just 8 days before the launch of the new one???

Yeah I was thinking this?
Even if you were going to opt for last gen Threadripper. You've got cyber Monday and Black Friday like 2 weeks away and prices are likely to drop further when Threadripper 2 comes out?

Seems like an odd move? Did you buy second hand or something?

It's the 16 core, 2950X. Not interested in the new one.

It was on a decent sale already, and availability is getting slim. Doubt it will drop much more on Black Friday. New Threadripper isn't under consideration since that's more than I need, and due to the entry price.

Bottom line: when you're build-horny, you buy things. :D Saving a few bucks here and there doesn't matter much. I've been debating this for months. Saving a few bucks on sale isn't worth the hassle for me.
 
Just bought the Xiaomi Mi 9, sorry no pics, but soon! Was going to get the Oneplus 7T Pro but damn can't ignore those specs! £345 Could'nt turn that down.

Xiaomi m9 is awesome dude. congrats. Far better than the oneplus 7T imo. Im still waiting on the alpha to arrive to test :)

I could find very little wrong with the Xiaomi. "maybe" the camera focus was iffy, but truely impressive and outstanding price v perf
