I recently upgrade my gaming pc. 8 core fx 8320E, Sapphire Radeon 4gb 460 oc edition, new msi 970-g43 motherboard, and a soon to be here 240gb ssd.
 
sadly it was the only 8 core I could afford at the moment. I plan on upgrading it to the 9590 after I get my raise at work.
FX 9590 is crazy. 8 cores @ 5ghz. I can't even imagine if you can overclock that. I overclocked my Fx8350 @ the boost clock 4.2ghz. I have a watercolour but my stupid case just couldn't fit it with the fans on the inside of the case. I want to get a new MicroATX case with a horizontal motherboard mount. My big GPU is starting to sag a bit and I don't want it to ruin the motherboard.

Ended up buy on eBay 5 li-ion micro USB charging boards for my Gameboy color battery mods that I'm doing and bought 2 EN-EL12 nikon camera batteries for the mod. They r smaller so I don't have to remove the 2 screw points on the Gameboy housing to install the battery

The batteries cost me $10 and the USB charging boards were $2.40
Also ordering a new housing for the Gameboy, it's going to be clear black with clear buttons and leds around them. But I don't think I'm going to put a power switch for the leds in the gbc because of space

Got this figure from 1999 as a birthday gift from my brother's girlfriend. It's in really good condition too [emoji1]

More books.

Not sure what year the handyman one is but the pure maths is 1913 and the computing is 1968, as computers were sort of available then to more general peeps it is a wonderful mix of hand methods and things you could probably kick to a computer then where now I consider myself cool if I can use log tables to perform multiplication
Top find though
Three volumes, possibly of four (the books themselves mention three, however one mentions two, online says there might be four) or "Cassell's the technical educator". Not finding a year but the latest dates mentioned are in the 1860s and that would follow with what is online. Did try looking up some of the authors of the articles but did not get far, looking at the weapons then it is missing things and the only wars it refers to are France-Germany, no the war (common between WW1 and WW2) and there was mention of the Crimean war. Half encyclopaedia, half actual technical educator, a splash of journal and some other stuff besides. It does all sorts really as you can see in the contents pages. Not amazing condition and already had to glue a spine back on but they read well and that is what I want from this sort of thing. Pushing the boat out this time and dropped the princely sum of £5 for all three there. Was a tiny bit apprehensive in the shop, and had passed them up on Monday when they were unpriced, but don't regret it at all now I have them home and being read.
