What are you looking forward to, to come out this year?
Or what have you enjoyed using in the recent months?
I'm counting the days for GeForce Ampere release and Pixel 5 and 4a5G.
I am definitely getting a new graphics card but possibly also a new phone  |

I've enjoyed using my Sony D6603 which I picked up 2nd hand this year. It runs Android 6.0.1 and still does everything I need. Should be good for a few more years yet  |

I might get that if the pixel 5 isn't any good. But todays leaks revealed a 4000 battery capacity 
And I'm all about camera and battery! |

"I've been toying with the idea of pulling the trigger on some wireless ear buds 
Highly recommended "
Any particular models you'd recommend? I'm after something with noise cancelling and water/ sweat proofing. |

Cheap ones or the premium ones  "
Premium I guess, I was going to go for some Skullcandys but I've seen some mixed-to-poor reviews  |

Active noise cancelling and ip67, so around £150-200 for ear buds then I'm guessing? |

Galaxy ones don't have noise cancelling or good sweat resistance from what I seen.
What about boose? |

PS5 and I like the look of the new galaxy note so I might upgrade to it this year. Normally go for a smaller phone but the adverts showing the use of the stylus have me very interested |

Even a £1000 pc can crush a console and while it's at it, it can stream, do video rendering, browse the internet without a struggle, ins't frames limited etc etc.
Consoles are like a mini cooper trying to be a Ferrari |

Ermmm Xbox has a processor equivalent to a 3600x not 3900x 
Also neither their graphics not ampere performance has been released yet so trying to compare in that department is pointless |

May well do but it’s all down to optimise codeing kind off the exact same way Apple beats android all day long on bench marks with lesser specs
For a pc game you don’t seems to know much
Games for pc have to be code to run multiple different cpu and gpu configs witch means they very poorly optimised witch means ur real not take advantage off all ur hardware
Ur hardware is only runing at around 60% off its true capabilities
Why do you think the long runing joke
can it run crysis Even to days modern gpu and cpu struggle to run 40fps crysis
With the Xbox and ps4 haveing only once set off hardware configs the game can be code perfect to maximumise those hardware specs
For someone who’s saying pc mater race you don’t seem to know all that much about pcs

First time I see an inferior console user so triggered by having a worse experience than me on my PC
My hardware unlike your hardware is upgradable, overclockable and can perform a wide variety of tasks all at once unlike a console. Even though yours might be better optimized my will always take the crown crushing yours in all areas of performance due to having no limits.
Also I get a mouse and keyboard  |

I am not triggered so overclockeing how are you geting over the power limits off the cards have you shunt mod ur card and contacted kingpin and had him send you his own custom bios as card can’t be over clocked any more they can run on a boost clock yes but it’s not a overclock gpu manficers have been soft limiting they gpus for a while by have them underclocked out the box so that they can tell everone they overclocking by have it boost
And card is hard locked to power limits
In less you shunt mod and written ur own custom bios or have a unlocked one witch kingpin as
Then ur not overclocked

You think mentioning few WC overclovkers makes you a PC expert?
CPU can be hugely overclocked, Ram can be tuned with xmp to work with Intel or AMD infinity fabric.
We have had SSDs for years now and you are only just getting them.
GPUs still have sli and Crossfire, even though it doesn't make as big of difference now compared to 1000 or previous series.
We have 10gig networking and thunderbolt connections.
We can adjust the cooling performance with software or hardware.
We can fully utilize our hardware usage instead of just gaming and streaming.
A PC can look like an art while a console...well a router I guess...

You failing to mention/acknowledge any other aspect of PC that doesn't relate to gaming is what shows how clueless you really are
But by all means play your games locked at 120fps at 1440p |

"I haven't owned a console since Xbox 360
But then again PC master race!
You mean pc none master race after November going to be a sore one needing to shell out 5k on a pc just to keep up with a £600 consoles
Even a £1000 pc can crush a console and while it's at it, it can stream, do video rendering, browse the internet without a struggle, ins't frames limited etc etc.
Consoles are like a mini cooper trying to be a Ferrari
Someone not been watching the tech space lol
der8auer Has broken down what you have to beat to compete with both new consoles 3090ti and a ryzen 9 3900x 5k worth off hardware yous are in for a big sock as for the first time ever consoles geting something that not even on the pc market space yet ray tracesing 2 lol
Ermmm Xbox has a processor equivalent to a 3600x not 3900x
Also neither their graphics not ampere performance has been released yet so trying to compare in that department is pointless
May well do but it’s all down to optimise codeing kind off the exact same way Apple beats android all day long on bench marks with lesser specs
For a pc game you don’t seems to know much
Games for pc have to be code to run multiple different cpu and gpu configs witch means they very poorly optimised witch means ur real not take advantage off all ur hardware
Ur hardware is only runing at around 60% off its true capabilities
Why do you think the long runing joke
can it run crysis Even to days modern gpu and cpu struggle to run 40fps crysis
With the Xbox and ps4 haveing only once set off hardware configs the game can be code perfect to maximumise those hardware specs
For someone who’s saying pc mater race you don’t seem to know all that much about pcs
First time I see an inferior console user so triggered by having a worse experience than me on my PC
My hardware unlike your hardware is upgradable, overclockable and can perform a wide variety of tasks all at once unlike a console. Even though yours might be better optimized my will always take the crown crushing yours in all areas of performance due to having no limits.
Also I get a mouse and keyboard
I am not triggered so overclockeing how are you geting over the power limits off the cards have you shunt mod ur card and contacted kingpin and had him send you his own custom bios as card can’t be over clocked any more they can run on a boost clock yes but it’s not a overclock gpu manficers have been soft limiting they gpus for a while by have them underclocked out the box so that they can tell everone they overclocking by have it boost
And card is hard locked to power limits
In less you shunt mod and written ur own custom bios or have a unlocked one witch kingpin as
Then ur not overclocked
As I sed for someone who a pc mater race you don’t seem to know much
You think mentioning few WC overclovkers makes you a PC expert?
CPU can be hugely overclocked, Ram can be tuned with xmp to work with Intel or AMD infinity fabric.
We have had SSDs for years now and you are only just getting them.
GPUs still have sli and Crossfire, even though it doesn't make as big of difference now compared to 1000 or previous series.
We have 10gig networking and thunderbolt connections.
We can adjust the cooling performance with software or hardware.
We can fully utilize our hardware usage instead of just gaming and streaming.
A PC can look like an art while a console...well a router I guess...
Sli and crossfire are you live in 2018
Both are completely dead due to the fact games makers are not code For them in less you want to spend 10 hours code ur card to run with a game not meny games will run in sli or crossfire
Once again ur saying pc master race but once again showing me you pritty much know nothing about pcs
You failing to mention/acknowledge any other aspect of PC that doesn't relate to gaming is what shows how clueless you really are
But by all means play your games locked at 120fps at 1440p "
And please tell me ur getting more and I tell you ur not as most games are hard capped of comptive gameing so ur big specs are hard cap all so not meny esports title aren’t hard caped
And yes I am only targeting gameing as that was the topic off it never once did I say a Xbox or ps can do more but in games they pritty much neck and neck |

"I've been toying with the idea of pulling the trigger on some wireless ear buds
Cheap ones or the premium ones
Premium I guess, I was going to go for some Skullcandys but I've seen some mixed-to-poor reviews
Im using skull candy one at work and i cannot here the machines that run at 98 db . "
Sounds like a glowing recommendation to me. Any experience with the water/ sweat proofing? Also which model and how long have you had them?  |

That's why you build your own. Far cheaper and you can customise your own components.

I picked up a LG C9 55 for £829 from Hughs direct - absolute bargain considering it was a £1700 screen when it launched just over a year ago. |

"What are you looking forward to, to come out this year?
Or what have you enjoyed using in the recent months?
I'm counting the days for GeForce Ampere release and Pixel 5 and 4a5G.
I have the huawei mate 10 pro
6gb ram 128gb storage
4000ma battery the camera is awesome even for a phone this old now
I am definitely getting a new graphics card but possibly also a new phone
On the wait list for the Pixel 4a, counting the days.
I might get that if the pixel 5 isn't any good. But todays leaks revealed a 4000 battery capacity
And I'm all about camera and battery!"

makes sure your pci is 4.0 or you will be slowed down if you only have 3.0 pci.
intel chipsets do not support pci 4.0 yet |

They're doing so bad even their own shareholders are suing them.
Right now, AMD has the multitask crown and by the end of this year very possibly the gaming crown too. |

I've got lights automated, but my blinds can't be retrofitted easily.. So I'm still contemplating whether to replace them.. Maybe just in the cinema room... In the future.... |

My son has just ordered this, he was wetting himself almost, he never gets excited about anything! he's rebuilding his gaming PC as it's four years old now.
And the great thing is because he is using his PC while working from home and the nature of his job he can claim half of the cost back through work.
Yes he was very happy |

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else |
Was thinking about some over ear noise cancelling headphones this year, but with zero travel and not much out and about, will probably wait until next year now.
Had a play with nephew's Nintendo switch the other week, which reminded me that the old Nintendo Wii was more fun than the new Xbox / PlayStation. Might try and get that back |

Until last week I was planning on a Rift S and an HDMI cable running through the unused chimmney brest from the bedroom above, but really seems like there's so little benefit vs the quest, and also Link just needs USB 3 and no DP. |
