Wut? It's the Microsoft Sidewinder X4 keyboard.
The ASD keys just look very worn off after all those years. Laughing
But i still have no real desire to get a new keyboard, as besides that it still works perfectly fine. At least in that regard Microsoft did a good job.


@Invasor
Thanks! grinhurt

Not a fan of the bling bling but it loots nice none the less.

Congrats on the new build.

Why nobody likes decent lighting. It's not even crazily done like some other modders would do. Sad
But still thanks! Very Happy

Because I'd rather the manufacturers invest in quality components than that stuff, since if you want premium you're also paying for that.

You are right and i agree.

But in my case the CPU fan is the Riing, and it's very quiet. Similar to the Silent Wings.

And the other passive light is not part of the case, but i added it additionaly.

And the Gainward light is just there. Like i mentioned earlier, the backplate is made of nice metal and feels worthy.


It's different though for example with the GPU manufacturer KFA2, that add extreme blingblings to their cheapest models, just to attract more little boys.

And sold most of my old PC parts: 16GB RAM, i5-2500k, custom cooler, Asrock Mainboard, MSI GTX 970.

In total i just got 287€ via Ebay - minus around 30€ fucking fees from that. Rolling Eyes

Will keep the PSU for emergency, as it still worked fine and wouldn't get me more than 20€ anyways.

Sole destroying ain't it? Selling PC parts for a fraction of what you paid for them, plus fees for Ebay, plus fees for Paypal Sad Sometimes its just better to hold on to them.

Reason why I hold onto them and they become projects for myself, others or handouts.

don't want to start a new thread and since bob posted his deliding dilemma here i thought i will post here too. Laughing
delided my cpu today with the same method as bob but with a better result. no scratches at all and everything went smoothly except for a little scratch in my hand from the razorblade.
temps went down for like 15° under full load so i guess i was successfull.
finally my i6700k behaves like it should.
