Oh yeah here we go :D






This here is the tower itself completed, mostly, I need to add in a couple extra fans and replace the CPU block fan with a quieter one, then tinker with an overclock on the CPU and a bit of lighting inside. Also gonna add a 128GB Corsair LS series boot SSD.

yeah since i moved out of the house im really crappy set up in technology department. but the plan is to buy a PC at new years sales and such.
Though i see a lot o you use these dreadful roll-out keyboard things, god i hate those. they are so unconfortable and you feel like you are pressing buttons on your belly.
Im also jealous of people with more than one monitor now :(
I too am envious of them, I plan to add a second GeForce 670 of some description and add at least 2 more monitors to my setup. Anymore and I think I'd need to go the Eyefinity route.

Here's my desk area:





It looks surprisingly neat, but that's only because I tend to keep my work area uncluttered so that I can spread out books and papers there. I am not really a terribly tidy person, trust me... there are just piles of books, clothes, and papers all over the floor.

Also there is almost always a pot of tea... which seems to me to be conspicuously missing.

Well, I don't have a desktop computer because my actual desk has too much crap on it and cannot withstand the extra weight... Just a (new) laptop that's more relevant to my gaming setup... (I need a new desk...)

Since I have no digital proof of (at least) my gaming setup, I'll just describe it as such...
The most complex thing about my gaming aspect is which cable is connected to what... I'll start from my TV. It's a 30-inch flat-screen that stands on top of my DVR, which is on top of my two non-even-floor shelf, with two HDMI cables and a component cable connected to it. One of the HDMI cables is connected to my PS3, which is on the upper shelf floor directly below the TV and DVR, while the other is connected to my VHS/DVD combo, which is located on the bottom shelf floor that doubles as a cabinet and also holds my GameCube (which is to the right of the combo), my capture device (which is on top of the combo), the main power strip (which is to the left of the combo), and all my wired PS2/GameCube controllers (which are all next to the capture device). The component cable connected to the TV is connected to the capture device that also has a universal component cable that's connected to either my PS3 or my "modded" PS2 slim (which is to the right of the PS3). Any wireless controllers are located to the sides of the TV alongside my PSP and 3DS and my DVR and combo are connected by a simple AV cable so that I don't have to manually switch between watching TV and playing on my consoles like I used to... or, at least, before the HDMI cables... (I also keep my "spare" PS2 and Dreamcast in a box that used to hold an iBook G4, so that the cabinet portion of my shelf is not that overcrowded, despite the "potential" space it still holds...)

The Man Cave Of Dave:


Not that happy with the picture - the keyboard is usually green lit (it's a Razer Deathstalker) but the flash killed the illumination. The box of Kleenex is because I've got a cold, before you comment.

I need new speakers. That silver and blue thing is not a speaker. (There are five speakers in this image, excluding the headset.)


I love my case. And again, I need new speakers. The magazines that aren't Retro Gamer are Custom PC. Input is a collection of old ZX Spectrum magazines. My chair is knackered.


Couldn't get a decent angle on this (you can't see the RAM because the cooler is in the way) - I'll need to pull the whole machine out. I took a few photos during the build [https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151449902396657.1073741824.607041656&type=1&l=369937e7df], but they were with my phone and the quality is a bit crap. (And yes, Silverstone and their weird 90 degree cases.)


Yeah, needs a tidy. And a new hoover.


This, people, is why the swivel chair was invented.

They might be a bit blurry, but they'll do - I'm sure. Office series:


I play console games in my husbands office, because he likes to watch (huehuehuehuehhuehue)

Ok then.

This is my desk, conveniently situated in the rotting scumhole I call my kitchen/living room.

I mainly use it for music so it's hooked up to my amp for recording and playback.

I guess I am kinda proud of my layout so ill show it, though it will need multiple shots to show it all because I "game" in multiple locations not including 7300 android tablet. Forgive the blur. It is actually just from how dark the house is and my camera not having a flash. Whatcha think?

Note: Chair is an old school high backed "Throne" style easy chair mounted on casters so it rolls, rotates and swivels as needed.


Note: The left monitor in the tri monitor rig is resting on a lazy susan platform so that it can be swiveled for the view from the bed above.



Note: Unfortunately the 360 is barely noticable. It is in between the PC and the wall of monitors. Black on black on black is hard to differentiate.

Okay, here is my setup's, starting with my pride, and joy, my ultimate retro gaming setup.


Next, is my computer, nothing special especially compared to others in this thread, but it's pretty beefy under that generic exterior.


And...finally, my tv, consoles, and my bookcase of games.
