Post your gaming setup!

That poster got water damage. See the orange pitcher, was catching drips at the time.

The poster was this: http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Prin.../dp/B001GI4GN2

I got mine from thinkgeek.com but they don't sell them there anymore, twas free for me at the time, so figured why not.

EDIT: It's actually not that bad damagewise, it's been rolled up the whole time so it's in decent condition.

ahhh RoJ Carrie Fisher

Yus, I know. That's why I referenced the Aion one, as if, well, I guess he could have a worse one. ;p

I could put my FFXIV posters up.

I could put my FFXIV posters up.

I think I might be sick! ;P

I think I might be sick! ;P

I actually like the game. Just couldn't get my friends to like it too.

[Asera]

Beer. Will never solve your troubles for you. Buy yours today!


That would still work, I swear.

I never liked silent computers.

Who is this imposter posing as tetris.

So I never thought of the obvious solution...

Which is to use the motherboard I'll be getting (the Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z). Maybe couple it with the H100. It's supposed to be pretty loud if you turn it up, but so's the NH-D14... and I haven't heard it make a peep of a sound thus far. Toss in a cheap 60GB SSD for the Z68's caching system...

And finally, this.

The Dell Ultrasharp 23" -- which I can get 40% off normal price.

Maybe couple it with the H100. It's supposed to be pretty loud if you turn it up, but so's the NH-D14... and I haven't heard it make a peep of a sound thus far.

Well if anything's making a noise on those coolers (the pump on the h100 should be near-silent), it's the fans. And those coolers use standard 120mm fans so you could just get Scythe GT 1450/1850 RPM fans to go with the cooler.

6 bit IPS makes me sad.

[Cyanotical]

I'll make it easier.

That large monitor is a Dell U3011, 30" panel, to give you a rough idea on the size.

SR-2, high end monitor.......crappy 2.1 speakers -_-

[Drunkenvalley]

6 bit IPS makes me sad.

6 bit IPS? /confused

[ispano]

They're not crappy, they're not great either. And i'm not buying a sound system just for this thing. I use headphones most of the time.

6 bit IPS? /confused

Dell U2311, right? that actually uses a 6bit color IPS panel instead of true 8bit color. It uses FRC to simulate 8bit color, but doesn't look as good as true 8bit. But it has the good viewing angles IPS has.

[Drunkenvalley]

That's the one. But seeing some feedback I'll be more than happy to look more into things. I thought the Ultrasharp were good.

[ispano]

Yeah the U2311 and U2412 use cheaper IPS panels than say the U2410. They only do 6 bit color with FRC to simulate 8 bit, while traditional IPS panels do 8bit or 10bit for the higher end ones. This is why they're as cheap as they are.

[Drunkenvalley]

Darn...

Any monitor suggestions then? I'm really not all that willing to shell out ~300+ dollars at present on a monitor. D:

[Asmekiel]

Ispano, I read that the U3011 has 8ms response, while the U2711 has 6ms response. Is the difference noticable while gaming? Going to get a GTX580 with it, if it matters.

[ispano]

Hmm I've played Borderlands on here and haven't seen any ghosting issues.

[Drunkenvalley]

Ghosting? Now that's something I'd like to see a demonstration of, out of curiosity.
Still, thoughts on what I plan to purchase and/or do? Yay or nay? :'3

[Deafyx]

WTB More Pictures! :P

These are right after I built my PC back in Jan/Feb.









Click for larger images.

Not shown is my G510, G9, G930 and my 2 other montiors (23 inch Acer, 22 inch Westinghouse).

I have been debating on putting in the H70 I bought when I originally started the build, but my temps are fine at the moment.

[Drunkenvalley]

Strange. I can't get pictures to load.
