Thought I'd start a thread so you can brag/show off whatever bargains you've snatched. Also, you can let other people know where there's a sale on.

First off, I got Race Driver: Grid for £5.39

And I also got a year old 4670 for £30.

So fire away with whatever cheap tech you got.

I won't post in this thread, OK?

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

For the current price and features- outstanding. Would order instantly if they would ship to EU.

If anyone wants an amazing sound card for 30$

Trust me, even at several times higher price this would be a bargain

I actually have one but other than a part number I can't find anything on the power supply itself that says what it is specifically.

edit: Best I could find: http://www.powersupplydepot.com/product … t=17182+PS

It's a 4-pin Mini-DIN connector. The same connector used for S-Video.

I thought that HD555's for $130 less than RRP seemed like a good deal to me...

Ended up just smashing the case open and buying a new enclosure for it as it was cheaper than buying a new power supply. Swapped everything over into the case now as well, alot more room than my old one inside and its very easy to change things, the HDD holder and the floppy holder slide straight out so theres no need for fiddly screws. Disk drive pulls straight out also and its very aesthetically pleasing, at least i think so anyways.
Anyone know what model the case is? All it says is Cooler Master ATCS.

Edit:Found the Computer case to be a Cooler Master ATC-710 SX1
