Post your gaming setup!

What would be the advantage of an 80gb RAMdisk over e.g. a Crucial M4 setup in Raid0?

Sex.

In all seriousness: ns wait times and, well, you know the rest once I say that. ;p

2 ms is too long!!!

Alright, it's getting a bit too far off topic guys. Let's stick to discussing and posting complete gaming setups here. Take other topics/questions/inquiries/etc to other threads, please. Thank you.

I'll finally post mine (no hardware pic for my main desktop though, since I'd have to unplug it :S)
That's my main desktop:


I want to get another screen, but I'm not sure if the graphics card (6970) will be able to cope with gaming on all 3 of them!

Desktop 2:





I actually like the Stacker more than the HAF X, but the PSU isn't bottom mounted :S

Thats ALOT of Dust

Thats ALOT of Dust

True, I haven't cleaned it for about 2 years :S
I'm actually trying to find some spare time to format it, maybe get 2GB extra RAM, do some cable management and remove the dust (the last one will probably need a lot of time)

[anb]

were there dust filters on Desktop 2?

I don't even remember if Stacker had dust filters, but if it had, they're probably destroyed by now -.-

[DeltrusDisc]

Wow, so how old is that Stacker system? What are the specs? :P

Less time than you'd think.... my case has dust filters... takes all of 1min to clean them all.

For the rest of the case, a small fan and a microfibre cloth will work wonders. only use that compressed air where you can't clean with the 2 above.

I built it 4-5 years ago, but GPU,PSU and a HDD where older.

It's a Core 2 Duo with a 7800GT (OLD!), 2GB G.Skill DDR2 800Mhz RAM, ASUS Striker Extreme and a (less-than-year old) Coolermaster Silent Pro 600W PSU. It had a Tagan 580W (or 530W, don't realy remember) PSU, but it broke down last February. Case is Coolermaster Stacker 830 with 4 extra CM 120mm Blue LED fans. And a ThermalrightUltra 120 heatsink. Oh and a Soundblaster X-fi sound card (I don't really remember the exact model)

I hope so. It's working, but the hard disks (two WD drives, a 80GB and a 250GB) need some love. The 80Gb is almost 10 years old!

I admit I quite like the look of the Stacker though. In a way.

My Main PC + Co-pilot.

Cool setup, you just to stay away from Imageshack next time. It's terribly slow. I'd recommend www.imgur.com

[Xuvial]

I'll probably shoot myself before I let any build of mine get as dusty as Zkeya's >_<
On that note, it's probably time I clean up my parent's desktop (aka my old PC). Q8200 + 8400GS ftw ^_^

@Danjal, there appears to be a fluffy creature with glowing eyes occupying your chair. Also what GPU are you running for that triple monitor setup??

[Drunkenvalley]

Dual GTX 580s, 16 GB RAM, etc. Someone had a good amount of money to throw. Share with me? :P

also in regards to spending, I work for a computer shop so lets just say I save ALOT

[imtehrogue]

Alas, ze goods haf arrived!

Xonar Essence STX and Sennheiser HD558...




I only had 1 PCIx1 slot left since my GPU ate the others, and the card fits snugly on top of the 580



Now begins the extremely long process of fine-tuning the sound I want -_-

I don't have place for a soundcard would like to have one
