I think we think alike when it comes to computers!
I think so too, I will also like to get the Titan, but that will have to be a bit later, and hopefully the prices would have dropped by then. So what type of games do you play?

Hey bum-man, congrats on your new car, how is the ownership experience so far? Your have a top end computer system there, so the next step up will be to improve the cooling for your cpu? The H100i is quite effective, it keeps the cpu temperature to around 40 to 45 degc after 2 hours of battlefield 3, multi player at ultra graphics setting. The cpu loading was at 50 to 60% during gaming. The fans were at the lowest speed for the entire time. They are slightly louder than the front case fan, and I will say they are louder than the stock intel fan too. I am quite happy with the cooling performance they give. About your computer case, was it easy for you to put the side panels back on? The left panel was a very tight fit on my case.

As for your r/c truck, I have a Traxxas e-revo myself but I haven't taken it out on years. These things are very fun but the maintenance cost aren't cheap. I had to do a complete rebuild of mine because the ESC caught on fire, and I haven't taken it out since that time.
 
Finally! My DD has arrived :love: and no, I don't miss the 500hp / 516 lb-ft (8/2010 MY11 CTT sold in 2012) because I don't plan to stop and go with turbo boost building up and hitting the brakes every couple of seconds which gets kinda annoying and makes it much easier for radar cameras to flash at you without feeling that you're already doing 130kph+ inside the city :eek:

After getting screwed by Lexus for over a year on two of their top models, I've decided to never buy any of their cars in the future whether it was a hybrid 50hp or another LFA look a like which they should've been happy for someone to come and put down a deposit on a car that didn't get much attention all across Europe, to hell with them and their management team that should stick to selling corollas and scions.

Sold the LS460 in 12/2012 and went straight to Porsche.

Throwing out all of my Toyota/Lexus brochures in to the trash bin, it's nice to have extra space for upcoming 911 Turbo/GT3/918 Spyder brochures :D

Drove the car from the showroom back to home and noticed couple of extra new options/gizmos/gadgets were added compared to my 2011 CTT

- Jukebox
- Lock / Unlock buttons on passenger and driver side
- Radio signal much stronger
- Shifting in auto is very smooth (so far no jerkiness)
- Brake pedal feel much better (feels firm)
- GTS Alcantara seats are very comfy compared to the turbos adaptive seats which was way too complicated (18-way adjustable :wtf:)
- Was hoping to get Michelin tires :(

More secrets will be unlocked after the break-in period is completed (Tires, Brakes..fluids etc...), can't wait to push the sport button and play with the paddle shift :love:

It's a mix between Iphone & Nikon
