I need to make a list for christmas stuff I might want(hey, my mom asked me 4 one so dont call me greedy:D I'm building puters 4 ppl for christmas).
Can't be too expensive, little do-hickies or upgrades. I just need ideas.
First on list:
Linux RedHat7.3 Bible:D lol, mom was thrilled when i told her I wanted a Bible.

btw, i'm 15 and dont have a car, so no car mod ideas.
 
lol, im interested in EVERYTHING computers, there's not much i havent gotten into.
I'm gonna buy a ti4200 for my uncles puter im building him and swap it with my Mx460:D The Mx i have is a really nice card though. Full vivo 2xmonitors. I dont wanna part with it!
Like I said, I gotta keep it fairley cheap. at most $100
 
$100 for watercooling? That's pretty good. When I was doing some watercooling pricing I was a little over that. Around $140, I think. Anyways, I put the watercooling idea on hold because of some reasons. Mainly because I'm going to save this hundred dollars towards the next computer I build (probably at end of next summer), and also I'm really rigging up my air-cooling to the quietest and best performance. I don't really have a temp problem, either.

As for Christmas, I would ask for a CD-RW, but I don't know what you have already. Any drives you want/need? How much memory do you have? Get another 256meg if you need it...
 
~70 water cooling for me

but water cooling isn't a great gift, it's more of a put together yourself after saving up and going ot the junk yard type of present

If I were you, I'd go for books! everybody loves books, lol
 
Custom water-jet work by 64Thunderbolt? :)
Cold hard cash?
Cold Cathodes?
A full water cooling setup?
A Heatpipe for your Geforce 4?

If only NewEgg or SVCompucycle had gift certificates...

AS3 stocking stuffers rule!
a dremel is a cool cheap gift for a modder.
CO2 in a can for cleaning. or inhaleing when bored. :p
blank cdrw's
rolls of electrical tape.
wire looms.
computer tool kit.

i think i just reminded myself of a few things i need to buy this weekend.but thats all cheaper most needed items i can think off.
 
I think I would ask for an unlocking kit (or supplies if no kit) and I would also ask for AS3 because I'm going to have to get the compound off of the CPU and lap the heatsink, I might as well go with a better compound than I currently have (AS2). Hmm...I think I'm going to ask for these... :D
 
Dvd Drive with hundreds of dvd's

A very comfy computer chair (must have for those all nighters)

get a tv-out vidcard and hook it up to a 70 in HD tv (and put it on your computer desk (to watch those dvd's of course)

How about a 6 in 1 card reader

You pretty much have all you need without starting on a new system. Computerwise anyways.
