I bought an electric wood chipper because this maple tree behind my house is an rear end in a top hat that can't hold on to its limbs and now they're going to rot eternal in my compost pile in tiny little chunks.

Depending on how big it is, you could always have it felled and then sold for firewood or material for furniture makers/woodworkers.

GTX 960 isn't that bad? I have one and so far it can run everything I've tried smoothly at 2560x1440 with full settings.

A 960 isn't running poo poo at 1440p on max with a high framerate, unless 20-30 fps is "smooth" to you or you're running 3+ year old games.

Yeah I think he bought into the marketing a little too hard. Mine clears 120fps on a lot of newer games (I only have a 1080 monitor but the card should still do 1440 at 60fps fine)

Even my 970 running Diablo 3 at 1440p maxed out has trouble maintaining 60 fps with 4 players in heavy combat situations.

Bought a surprisingly small for its storage capacity charger that I really didn't need, but I'm trying to phase out my too-big-to-be-practical huge charger.

Some of the negative comments on the linked amazon page (I bought it at Kohls) are amusing as hell. Know how big your phone's battery is! it says "charges your phone three times" because it'll charge your average phone that much.

I also bought a new water bottle that I'm already in love with, given its specs:

  • 64oz, which is awesome because I drink a lot of water
  • Wide opening, so I can pour in ice en masse without having to drop them in individually
  • Not super tall; about a foot tall
  • A freezing stick attaches to the lid

Thats because Diablo 3 is severely gimped by its reliance on your CPU and has very little to do with your GPU being unable to process whats going on with the screen. As has been the issue with many blizzard games for all eternity.

Get a load of this guy and his store-bought 'grips. Everyone knows that if you want powerful grips for cheap you have to build them yourself. Mine is 24 karat gold (not the spring of course) with leather-wrapped handles and I still probably payed a third of what you did.

Aside from hotsauce and saltines (which were off camera), you shouldn't need any of that unless you're eating tasteless Gulf or New England singles :hehe:
