    Anyone get any PC gaming pressies?


    Wife allowed me to upgrade pc to 5820k so in essence it was a present.

    She got me g510s and G600 mouse as presents.

    She allowed you? Is it a shared PC or did help pay for it or something?

    Not really, kinda stopped my other half from buying games for me as gifts, because I just wasn't playing them. She got me some bundle not so long ago with sacred 2 and risen among others, never touched em yet, dunno if I will get around to them any time soon. :/

    I got an Nvidia Shield Controller to go with the gaming tablet I bought for myself back in Nov. Have to admit I gave the wife a few hints! Not PC gaming I guess but gaming related at least!

    One of these from the gf.

    And I bought myself a Crucial 480GB M500 SSD on Amazon's lightning deals today, as the first part of my new build.

    My brother and I buy each other games on Steam each year. My wife and I buy our own presents rather than buy stuff for each other, I might be getting new headphones but I haven't decided on that yet.

    Girlfriend bought me a new 4690k and msi z97 mobo and ram to replace my ageing core 2 quad. Have been away visiting family since before Christmas though so just home this evening and downloading some new steam sale purchases to try it out. Have another week before work starts again so am looking forward to a few late night sessions!
