Just got a new rig.

Abit Fatal1ty AN8-SLI
AMD 64 X2 4400+
Corsair XMS3200 1024MB x 2
Leadtek nVidia 7800 GTX
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS
NEC ND-3540 DVD-RW
Sony Floppy Drive
Seagate Barracuda 250gb Hard Drive
Tagan 480w PSU
Lian-Li V-1000 Case
Logitech Media Keyboard
Logitech MX518 Mouse
Hyundai L90D+ 19" TFT
Logitech Z-640 5.1 Speakers

All in all, fantastic system. Battlefield 2 is insanely smooth and loads so fast, so I'm having a lot of fun playing it and not-stuttering like it used to. Case looks great with the red glow at night going through the grills, and the front panel from Abit is a nice gimmick.

Only two gripes I have with it is after playing a game you can notice the Heatsink Fan cooling down the Processor, although you can't really hear it when playing BF2 or Half-Life 2. Takes about 20-30 minutes to get silent again.

That, and (not the computer's fault), but it appears the Starforce Copy Protection on Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory doesn't like being run from DVD-RWs. As a result, I cannot play it since it won't get past the CD check. Although I have no problems getting into Versus, I'd like to play SP or Coop.

Oh, 4 front USB ports is awesome too.

chas_bronson, are those them m-audio monitoring speakers ?

 

[chas_bronson]

Yes the new BX5a, went for the bx5 rather then the 8 to save a bit of desk space.
The sound is very good for the size a lot of punch and bass response is great for a 5"Driver.

 

[OH MY GOD!]

Here is my lovely desk! As tidy as it needs to be

A closeup of my main games. But some of the many games I have.

Just built this desk this morning, it showed it advertised with a top bit that holds cd's but I never got it with it but thank god for cordless drills.

 

[OH MY GOD!]

That is some serious amount of dust on that 6-way plug

 

[wod_uk]

nice desk , i've just bought one and will add some pics soon

lol at the dust on the plug

 

[Lee2k4]

I know LOL, I get a lot of dust in this room, but that plug has not been touched in 3 years so thats why. But I feel like I should make a complaint to Argos for wrongfully advertising. There is some drawers missing that goes on the right and a CD unit which goes above the monitor. On their website it said nothing about it not being included.

 

[OH MY GOD!]

Maybe they forgot to send it?

 

[maddness]

My main rig just after a tidy up

 

[BubbySoup]

Wassat then?

Is it a stand alone LCD display or is it hooked up to your PC?

 

[maddness]

hooked to the pc ofcourse. its a T6963C 240x128 Gfx Lcd, displays anything from pc stats to animation, weather, wmp, pretty cool

 

[mashie]

Here are a few pics of my computer room:

This is my main workstation using dual SGI 1600SW producing a good 3200x1024 pixel workspace.

To drive them I have the Y2k-bug.

On the opposite side of the room we have from the right the Doom 3: Hell Inside for gaming/LAN connected to a 22" Iiyama CRT. One step more to the left we have Udat the fileserver running headless. The three naked systems on top of the empty PC-75 case are the 97,98 and 99 hardware for Project Time Machine.

You can also see the Creative GigaWorks S750 speakers and subwoofer used for gaming.
