Last year, I built a new rig and bought a Evga 8800GTS for it.
The other day I was going through some old parts and found an MSI 8800GTS that I didn't know I had.
Sucks that I spent money on a card I didn't neeed but now I can do SLI.

Does getting older mean you are more generous, perhaps? I could use an 8800GTS :p

You know you're obsessed when you need an inventory count of everything you have.

I think that's smart, if you have a lot of stuff and/or routinely sell or trade items.

You know you're getting old when it takes you all night to do what you used to do all night...;)

I haven't seen too many of the "highs" of getting old...but the pains of old age do remind me that I'm still alive. :D

I only upgraded from an Athlon 2800+ just a couple months back. I didn't even know about PCI-E till then.

Maybe olds has one of those laying around that he forgot about, and he can give it to you once it has been found.

I'm getting older. I'm not looking forward to the old coin purse sagging and finally on that hot summer day while sitting on the toilet BAM. Wet balls. I hear this happens. :(
