    What can one do with 100 squids?

    Righty, ive got the itch again, the itch to spend some of my well-earned swag.

    Thing is, i dont know what to spend it on.
    I want it to be spent on my computer, as thats the only thing i spend money on these days apart from my girlfriend, and she's had enough spent on her over crimbo.

    Any suggestions guys.
    Check my sig for details of my current system.
    I've got a w/c loop setup, just needs to be installed in the C2D, and i've got another one for my socket A server system, again, just needing to be installed. Im at a loss (and need to spend money, its just something that i do)

    Thanks in advance,
    Steve

    erm.. your comp, apart from the graphics card is just sexy, and £100 isnt going to get you up to a 8 series yet.

    i suggest £100 worth of USB missile launchers, USB hubs and webcams for them. then you can play real life "that 2d tank game where you do the angles then take a shot, a really cool version was a hidden thing in another game"

    not really fussed on a sound card tbh, i dont use my pc that much, that i can deem it necessary.

    I'm thinking maybe going to kustom to get a 120.3 installed in my stacker. not sure though

    How about a matching vfd for your lovely case and a thermalright si-128, both of which are available and in stock now.

    I agree about the soundcard, a nice X-meridian or something.

    Guys guys guys....

    SPEAKERS! 7.1 set and some brackets to hang them on. Do you have a surround setup?

    Then again you did say you weren't interested in sound, and don't use your PC that much. In which case

    GIVE IT TO CHARITY!
