Post A Picture of Your Last Purchase

[Lazlo]

Headphone holder and stand I ordered as currently my Voids are on a headphone stand I don;t like the look of on top of my 540, My X2's are on a Plexiglas headphone stand, Again that I don't like the look of, But my Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro's are just in a draw in their box along with my Sennheiser 650's in their box too.

Gonna be getting 3 of these and screwing them in vertically on the wall by my monitor so I can hang up my 650's, X2's and 770's while leaving my Voids on their new black aluminium stand with rubber top that bends to the contours of your headphone as to not scratch or fray the underneath.

3 x of these -

1 x of these -

I have 2 of the K&M ones. One to screw and one with a desk clamp. Gave another one to my dad. Solid quality.

This sounds like something I want ^_^

Good investment to protect your headphones

This is the first of my two X99 builds. It's pretty quick compared to the i7-4770K that it replaced.

On a side note, the i7-4770K box got smoked a day or two ago.
My Silverstone Tundra TD02 CPU cooler leaked and took out my mainboard and two almost new R9-390X Toxic GPUs.

This build was going to replace it anyways, but I was forced to build it today.

It's in a Corsair 400C chassis with a Corsair 850AX Gold PSU
The CPU is an i7-6800K installed in a Gigabyte X99 SOC Force Mainboard
64GB DDR4-2400 RAM
Two GTX-980 GPUs
One HyperX 480GB SSD and one 500GB Crucial M.2 drive
3 Enermax TB-Vegas 120mm Red LED Fans and two Cougar Vortex 140mm Red LED Fans.
I ~was~ going to reuse the pair of Sapphire Toxic 390x cards, but I had the two GTX-980s on the shelf to fall back on.

I may start the better X99 build tomorrow if I can find the time.

Ordered the replacement for my stolen bike

This may need to go, though.

When they said that they had used all period parts I was hoping that they'd have at least used something more comfy

It's been a busy week for the UPS and FedEx man here.

I picked up a Synology DS716++

Added 8GB of memory and running it uncompressed.

Two of these to go in it.

Picked up a Linksys E9500 to replace my old router.

With all the NAS storage, I needed a BR drive to backup my disks.

I picked up an MX300 to get rid of the spinning drives in my sons PC.

The Synology has been one of the best toys I have bought in a long time. I love the Plex server built in.

Wouldn't have been near the same price to build your own NAS and put something like FreeNAS on it.

Or are you just lazy

Jelly much bro

My data drive was throwing smart errors, and I wanted something plug and play that did not take any setup and very compact.

Added a

Not really was just thinking a Custom NAS would work out around the same price.

You could do it for sure - the downside is you'd probably end up with a larger and potentially more power hungry system. I've been tempted to re-purpose an old rig for it but the idea of just chucking a two or four bay NAS like a QNAP or Synology behind the TV is really appealing.

All depends on the space you have I guess and how much you want to muck around. Current NAS offerings are small, powerful and very frugal on power.

I wouldn't use an old desktop system, I'm planning on doing mine hopefully next year.

IMO you can build one that would use low power, You just buy a NAS case like a Fractal or SilverStone one and use a mini ITX motherboard and ECC memory.

I'm just starting to dislike these cheap pre made ones their loud and i even changed the stock fan in mine and put a Noctua fan in it and it's still noisy as hell.

IMO to get a decent pre made NAS you would need to spend about $400.00 and go from there.

The one I have is pretty quiet. It has 3 different fan speed options. I run mine in the middle. Even on high speed, its not loud. My D5's are louder on number 3 than the D716 on high speed fan mode. What I hear is the hd's accessing. Eventually when I replace them, I am getting 5200rpm green drives to silence it. Oh by the way, in this enclosure, my drives are only at 39 and 40C.

I checked up the price of that NAS you brought there's no way in hell i'm paying that kind of money for the money i think i could build one myself.

Everything is such a rip off in this country.

with the NAS i have it's not the hard drives that's the issue it's the damn NAS itself.

 

[BigDaddyKong]

lol I guess we both can agree you get what you pay for

 

[Excalabur50]

Just ordered a set of these

 

[Dicehunter]

Good choice, I had the Zeros *only difference is the hinge* before moving on to other things, Brilliant headset.

 

[NeverBackDown]

What headset is that?

Sennheiser Game One

Sennheiser Game One

Thank you
How is the sound quality compared to say my DT990 Pro? I know it's not a headphone but just curious considering its price tag

I'd say it's close but not quite DT990 territory, No where near the same amount of soundstage the 990 has.
