Title: Christmas Wishlist 2011
Post by: TriniXaeno on November 27, 2011, 08:50:02 AM
As is the annual tradition around the month end of November....we take our pens to papers (or fingers to keyboard) to scribe that wish list of items for Santa to deliver on December 25th 2011

Reply with your hearts desire.

Here is my wish list thus far:

#1) Sharkoon X-Tatic True 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound Gaming Headset x2
(Left over from 2010 wishlist, to game / watch movies with the misses at night without waking up the house)
(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51pANhu15%2BL._SL500_AA300_.jpg)

#2) Updated Graphics Card
Either the Nvidia GTX 570 or ATI 6970


(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51KlzA%2BFP6L._SL500_AA300_.jpg)


(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51ojyoXRgIL._AA300_.jpg)

#3) Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
(will probably sneak this one in as a gift to my son)
(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51iQR0S7wWL._SL500_AA300_.jpg)

#4) A local Perler Bead Art piece
(http://www.carigamers.com/cms/forums/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=21787.0;attach=9613;image)


#5) Hands Free Kit for the BlackBerry
(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41E9QpWCHyL._SL500_AA300_.jpg)

#6) Deus Ex: Human Revolution
(Rumour has it, you get this game as a Steam download with the Radeon 6970, might get lucky)
(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/5122-7HsSeL._AA300_.jpg)


#7) TED 5000 G Energy Monitor
(Pushing my luck here but want this to get a better hold of our T&Tec bill which has skyrocketed!)
(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/21GIXJdUZPL._SL500_AA300_.jpg)

PS...Looking back on last year, apparently I'd been a very good boy:

Got three out of the four gifts requested. Lets see if Santa's in a good mood for 2011

LOL... waaayyyy, that list real fat, but if you buy a 6970 I will slap you.

My list real simple:

2 x Sapphire 6950 2GB (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0055Y66A4/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER)

Post by: TriniXaeno on November 27, 2011, 12:12:44 PM
lol @ million dollars

@ arc, what wrong with the 6970?

If I get the DeusEx in the box to redeem on steam, it will be the same price as a 6950 (saving about US$49.95 by getting the game free)

and yeah, the list long. Expecting to realistically get two or three from that. Unless Santa Claus has a secret stash of money that I didn't know about. lol

i am sure arc said that because i take the 6950 and unlock it to the 6970 for no cash and same performance...

u forget how amd saves cash by using the same dyes? and locks up cores?

Virtue is exactly right @ overclocking. Taboo. I'll leave that to the younger GATT members who have more flare for adventure.

Virtue is exactly wrong @ never use. Every gift received from the 2010 Christmas wishlist has been HEAVILY used.

As will each and every one of the items listed above (if Santa Claus sees fit to bestow them upon this humble peasant)

Post by: Saxito Pau on November 27, 2011, 02:54:34 PM
My list relatively simple:


1.  Nokia E5 - yes it is an old phone and it have ENDLESS alternatives, but I on the cheap and practical

(http://themobileblog.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/nokia-e5-mobile-phone.jpg)

2. Crucial M4 256GB SSD - To bump up my Desktop's performance, the same way I did my laptop with a 128GB
(http://www.techspot.com/images/products/storage/ssd/org/397378801_1689059694_o.jpg)


3. WD Caviar Black 1TB -  to supplement #2, and replace the surely dying 1.5TB drive I have
(http://techreport.com/r.x/wd-caviar-black/top.jpg)

4. 3TB hard Drive  with a USB 3.0 Enclosure - for external backup purposes. But the PRICES for the drives!

5. $5000 cash - to pay for exams by end of January 2012

TW, unlocking the 6950 is 'harmless' and is actually sanctioned by AMD,
hence the inclusion of a separate un-flashable BIOS you can switch to if you get problems.

If you can install Windows and games, you can unlock a 6950.

...but TW, back in them days you could actually wreck something.  Not today.  Too many fail safes built in.

You really gonna have Santa spend an extra hundred US when its not necessary?  You must really not like Santa.  :laughing7:

What else do I have to do to convince you that buying that 6970 is not an efficient use of Santa's resources?

lol,

Well Santa is on his way back to the north pole. What did he drop down your chimney?

I got 2 out of the 6 items on my wish list. Guess I wasn't as nice as back in 2010

The ATI 6970 graphics card and Deus Ex

In addition to the items on my list, he also saw fit to bestow me with Uncharted 3 under the Christmas tree on the 25th. Boom Bang.

Can't forget the Dota 2 key from Sesimie. Now THAT is gift.

Not a bad haul.

Almost forgot, still gotta link with Dare2b for my pearler bead art this week. That will make it 3 out of 6 from the official list. Passing grade for Mr. Claus.
