Looking for suggestions

[Trotter]

I received a $40 NewEgg gift certificate for Christmas. And I have no clear idea what to use it on. My cooling is fine (good case, plenty of fans, good CPU cooler, good GFX cooler). I have 8GB (4 x 2GB) RAM already. I am running a decent quad. My PSU is more than adequate. I have a good mouse and pad.

My thoughts ran toward additional storage (but the prices are nuts still) or a new keyboard.

So... what I am asking for are suggestions as far as what would be worth going for. The only stipulations are that everything has to come from NewEgg and the price should be as close to $40 as possible.

What about something like this Trotter..

Newegg.com - Rosewill RTK-146 Network/ PC Service Tools

Or as an anternate sugestion to networking Tools,

Newegg.com - Rexus PST-3 Digital Power Supply Tester with LCD

Mind you the Rexus Power Supply Tester is only $23.99, but mabie cupple it with a Anti Static wrist strap for example.

if you don't need anything at the moment why spend it?
just save it for when you actually need something.

I am looking for suggestions of decent stuff others have. I am leaning toward a keyboard but the ones I like are to $$$. I have a Saitek Eclipse which is OK, but nothing to write home about.

Another 8GB of RAM set up as a RAM Disc, i've been thinking of doing this for a while now.

you could always use some nice case fans, or something else you wouldn't normally spend the money on...

maybe some nice 120mm fans plus grill/filters?
or maybe a "All-in-one" card reader?

Trotter, I'm sure know ram isn't always invincible and you know it will fail on one of those days.
Pick up a a spare 4gb and tuniq x2 when you have to change your cpu's grease.
I would spend a little money on it and have a backup just in case stuff goes "POOF!"

I was actually considering to replace mine with the sidewinder x4...
