$86.75 delivered from catch of the day. Been looking for a new combo for a while, my g15 and g5 are both getting pretty sad these days.

Not a fan of the cod scribble on them though. Might have to get out the black nikko pens :)


Very happy with mine, the Mrs bought it for my Birthday :D Good price IMO

Just rocked up today from pccasegear. Mobo, cpu, cpu cooler, psu and ram will come within the week while the rest of my new rig has to wait til next week once exams have finished. Nothing would get done if it were to all turn up now.

Happy with it. Awesome contrast and colours.

Nice and dark, though it took a bit of playing around in settings to get it all just the way I like it. I've seen some popular settings profiles around the net for the VS248 which seem to cater for all tastes, uses and lighting conditions.

Anyway, just one day later and half my new rig turns up!
Image

ASRock Z77 Extreme 4
i5 3570k
CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO
G.Skill Ares @ 1600 (2x4GB)
Antec High Current Gamer 520W Modular PSU

Can't wait for the rest to rock up next week once exams are over. Still deciding on a case (very last minute) but Win7 OEM, WD Caviar Blue and Gigabyte HD7850 OC Windforce are the components yet to come.

New Kitty!

We got her from the RSPCA and named her "Jess" (after Postman Pats black and white cat)...

She's beautiful! :D

The moment I get my own place again, I'm adopting a cat. Home feels so empty without a cat!
