    Good-bye?- Anandtech

    I remember discovering Anandtech back when it was hosted on Geocities when I was in elementary school. End of an era.

    The bitcoin millionaires when will they cash out?

    I purchased $30k of Litecoin in the $90's last week (Have a friend who bought more when it was in the $30's). I will probably just hold onto it for a while and hope it goes to $1,000 or more in the future.

    2500K... 6 years ago! My, how time flies!

    I've had all those CPU's and the i7 2600k as well (which is now a secondary rig for me). My first cpu for the first rig I made was the Celeron 300A which was also a pretty legendary one (just change the multiplier FSB from 66mhz to 100mhz).

    The watch thread - what watches do you sport or covet?

    Here are two watches I have on me right now: I also have a Submariner and a Patek Nautilus 5711 that I recently sent in for service and probably won't be getting back for many months. Some watches I've owned in the past: AP 15202OR, Rolex GMT Master BLNR "Batman", AP 15300. I was looking for...

    Does this watch make me look old?

    I used to be a pledge member there. Some of the members at TRF are very wealthy and some are celebrities as well. You also have your average joe watch collectors and we sometimes attend the meetups.

    Does this watch make me look old?

    I purchased a pre-owned Daytona 116520 from an online gray dealer named takuya two years ago for $10.5k. A local dealer has the new ceramic bezel Daytona and I was thinking about trading my Daytona + $4k cash for the new one but decided to pass. My Daytona on watchrecon now goes for around...

    20 Years of Anandtech - 20 days of Giveaways

    My first rig I built in middle school, the good ole' Celeron 300A (66mhz to 100mhz FSB) and that 450mhz overclock. For nostalgia, I visited my parents house a few weeks ago. All my old rigs (Celeron 300A, Pentium 3's, Pentium 4's, AMD Thunderbird, XP Athlon, Barton, AMD64, AMD64 x2) that were...

    What income do you need to consider purchasing a $10k watch? $100k car?

    Rolex and Patek are the two best brands for resale. For example, the Submariner I bought 6 years ago I paid $5500 for I could probably sell it for around $5000 now. If you have some vintage Rolex watches (IE Paul Newman Daytona) those could be had in the 1980's for $1000 - $2000 and now they're...

    What income do you need to consider purchasing a $10k watch? $100k car?

    My first Rolex purchase was in 2010, I paid around $5500 for a Submariner 14060M and I was making $320,000 then. The only Rolex I own that is over $10k is a Daytona 116520, I purchased that in 2014 and what I pay myself (own a small private company) had gone up a bit since then as our revenue /...

    What income do you need to consider purchasing a $10k watch? $100k car?

    I have a small watch collection with watches over $10k (Rolexes) and $30k (Audemars Piguet / Patek Philippe), all of them are in stainless steel (used to have rose gold Royal Oak 15202OR but sold it). None of the watches are noticed by people and I like it that way (stay under the radar), I...

    Does Macy sell good watches?

    Get a Seiko 5 on Amazon. If you have a higher budget then maybe a Nomos or Grand Seiko. I have an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15202ST and no one knows what it is. When I wear Rolex a lot more people know but for the most part don't care.

    Donors needed

    I did a stem cell transplant for my brother a few months ago. It wasn't difficult at all just some slight bone pain and headaches from the twice a day neupogen injections (for 5 days). During the stem cell transplant they stick a needle in each arm (one to take out blood and the other to put the...

    Recommend a watch: $3k max

    But to most collectors it's the most important thing. Rappers and some other people love flashy watches with diamonds (ie gaudy ones that are ugly, messing up a perfectly good watch). WIS are not about that at all.

    Recommend a watch: $3k max

    I've only purchased from DavidSW (based in Orlando) and takuya (based in Houston) but OCROLEXGUY is a well respected seller. You can probably get him to go down some on price as he won't have to ship it overnight with insurance. Some of his other watches for sale...

    Recommend a watch: $3k max

    I've worn my Rolex watches for 3-4 years now. No one besides friends, family, and watch employees have noticed them. They're insured as well at jewelers mutual so if they're ever stolen, I will be covered.

    Recommend a watch: $3k max

    For $3k you can probably find a pre-owned datejust. I would pay a little more (around $5k range) and aim for a Rolex Submariner 14060m or a JLC Reverso. If you're going to purchase online, purchase from a trusted seller (DavidSW, takuya, OCROLEXGUY).

    Let's talk dress shoes.

    I think Ferragamo shoes are nice, I have a few pairs. I also have Kenneth Cole's, Steve Madden's and retro Air Jordan's for casual wear. I don't spend too much on shoes (Louboutin, Lanvin, etc). I use the money I would've spent on shoes and buy watches instead (Audemars Piguet and Rolex), and...

    My note 2 is on business line (all my employees were switched over to T-mobile from Verizon), I use it for emails, phone calls, etc. My iPhone 5 is my personal line and I use it for text messages, phone calls.

    Trying to decide on a new phone

    Took both my Note 2 and iPhone 5 on Sunday up on a trip to North Carolina, used both pretty evenly and at the end of the day the Note 2 had 58% battery life remaining and the iPhone 5 had 13% (both phones are set for auto brightness). Although there were pockets where the Note 2 reverted to Edge...

    If it was the wrong stepping (it's SLACR G0) it should've worked when I put my E4300 back in. Anyways turned out to be the motherboard. New Power Supply Installed on old P35-DS3R (same thing happening). Old Power Supply Installed on new EP35-DS3L board (perfect).
