    Being at the top of the leaderboard is priceless. Don't think about the cost, focus solely on the glory.
    Its a hobby not unlike any other hobby. I don't recall trying to tell you how to spend your money.

    Amazing you still have snow on the ground, you`re not really that far from me, but the deeper it is the longer it takes to melt.

    Back when I use to ski I saw snow in Vermont and New York last until June.

    The snow that is left is mainly in the hills and backcountry now. My fields are like 99% clear of snow, just need to dry up a little and good to go. :)

    Darn you Brian. I guess that means I have to upgrade too, just to keep up. I sold my kidneys last time. Maybe @pparks1 will loan me some money, or at least donate his kidneys so I can keep up. See what you started.

    Hahaha oops!

    Jeezus, everybody gets so offended around here. I never told you how to spend your money.

    I wouldn't say he was offended. This is an enthusiast forums thread, most of us here Overclock and go to extremes in our hobby as he said. Then you come on with a "minimalist tone" which is quite frankly a downer in this part of the forum.

    Does that mean I can't count on you for a kidney to help me get to the top of the leaderboards?

    How could we stop buying high end PC hardware (or selling others' kidneys for it) when they keep giving us free stuff. Look at this. I just became an EVGA Elite member for free.

    Not sure what it does. I think it gives me the color choices on the FTW3. I still would have to buy the GPU but that's a minor detail.

    Yes pparks1 you are misunderstood. I haven't got a clue what you are talking about. Now how cute is that

    Which color did you buy @specialkone?

    The thing about PParks is, he is right for 99% of people. However, for us one percenters, we've got games to play and benchmarks to run. That reminds me, I have to go check the leaderboards.
