As a sheer impulse buy, I'd get a PS5 - though I don't really want one. I just don't have the spare time available to get the use out of it and justify the cost..

Like Empire. There is a multitude of things that I'm wanting to buy and some of the things that I want to buy, I'm not really sure if I want those things or not. But right now, it's not wise to buy them right now. I have my obligations and responsibilities to my children and to pay my bills first. I think good things come in time. You just have to wait and you'll get it eventually aka someday.

There are plenty of things I'd like to buy but my hubby and I are saving the money for doing some stuff around the house. The joys of adulting.....

There's not much that I really need right now so I'm going to choose something that I want, but don't need - Burberry Trainers. Had my eye on a pair since last year.

This guitar in the Arctic Dream finish. I can technically afford it but will never be able to justify spending the money.

Bad timing buddy.. but you might want to get nvidia's re-release of the 1050 ti.


I want to upgrade my pc really badly to the setup that i WANT, i'm preparing myself for 2022.. already bought the case and the platinum power supply!!

I want an GPU that has more Vram 6gb is so pointless nowadays
6 GB is enough for more than 70% of the actual games. Only games like Cyberpunk or Daylight might have problems to run at 1080p.

If you do allot of flight sims that I do then 6GB is not enough. I do P3d and it's near to that point anyway. I got to keep the settings a little lower to keep the Vram down.

If it gets to 6GB or more the drivers restart and the sim crashes

Try using directx 10.

I investigated a lot about that and it's one of the poorest optimizations around so yeah, even an 8 GB gpu might not be still enough.

The sim does not use DX10 anymore it's fully DX12 and been coding and the framework uses DX12.

oh crap, not a funny era to do flight sims then! maybe getting a RADEON card is not a bad idea.

I would love to collect a first edition copy of the books from the Harry Potter series and then have them autographed by J. K. Rowling. But I'm sure that would be expensive as crap right now.

Sadly many GPU's are not available in my country as there is a sudden spike in Bitcoin collection and gaming due to Work from Home
