Post your gaming setup!

I.E. Not his.

why would that not be mine? that's an MS3 speed in the wallpaper...same car used in autocross that I have many videos of.

Also the same chair that is used to get top 50 in midwest for GT5 academy tournament.

nice try though bub!

sorry kiddo, but you're wrong here.

Generally speaking, internet toughguys who post two pictures of two beautiful, yet different photos of a gaming setup such as yours are lieing out their ass. Not saying you are, but you can provide us with proof before claiming you're "so and so" in "demographic".

Build this myself 5 month ago and still running every game with 70 fps on maxx.

Might as well join in on the fun as well.

Case: CM HAF X
CPU: AMD Phenom II x4 955 BE @ 4 GHz (Highest I've gotten it while stresstesting is apparently 47 degrees celsius, which I'm having a hard time believing.)
GPU: Flashed Sapphire Radeon HD 6950 @ 950/1450MHz
RAM: 2x4GB Corsair Vengeance
Mobo: ASUS M4A87TD EVO
CPU cooler: Corsair H70
PSU: Corsair HX 650W
SSD: OCZ Vertex 2 120GB
HDD: 2x Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB (Too lazy for RAID)


Am at stupid school now, so I won't be able to post any images until I get home.
Also used to run a Sandy Bridge setup (Asus P8P67 PRO and a Core i5 2500k, but the mobo died)

I looooove the Haf X

47 celcius is pretty good, I bounce off 80 all the time.

Don't we all?

Having a bit of an issue with the back plate being in the way of the bracket that goes with the CPU cooler on the P8P67 card, so I'll have to dig out the hacksaw when I get a new mobo.

Hacksaw and CPU in the same sentence scares me :<

Hows it feel to use a BE after downgrading from a 2500K?

Well, it's either hacksaw or angle cutter... Thinking the hacksaw will be safer.

Well, considering I wasn't able to OC the i5 much due to having the CPU cooler attached with two screws one the left side and strips on the right side, there's no huge difference, but if I had been able to OC it it would most likely have been awful.

I always notice a huge increase in improvement whenever I upgrade, but it always seems to slow down to me as you work faster/get more productive/software gets bloated.

Well, it'll feel slower as you get more used to the speed.
For instance, I'm used to running 60 FPS on ultra in 25-mans after getting my computer up and running, but I used to do 25s on a laptop with an Athlon II Q-60, and was used to the utter shit FPS (0,1-5) on low. Now, if I were to go back to raiding on that, it'd probably end up in pieces.

Current Pentium 4 (I think) on school computer is driving me crazy, as even using Internet Explorer causes it to run at 50-100% load.

I was playing on my 14 incher when I was on travel, and the 6-ish fps killed me.

Everything is fast on my new comp except for Firefox when I tell it to do the more intensive tasks

Yeah, exactly that feeling... At least it was running "decently" in anything but large raids.
Firefox isn't exactly known for its super-speed, at least in my book... Is fast enough for me on an SSD at least (Don't feel like killing the computer, unlike my laptop's 3,2k RPM HDD.

School done in 2 1/2 hours, so I'll probably be able to post some shitty pictures taken with my shitty phone camera in 4 hours.

Only taken picture of my setup when I had just assembled it. (Turned out the GFX cards cooling was broken and had to use stock CPU cooler for awhile as they somehow missed the custom one from my order)

Do I even want to know...?
But yeah, you do have a point. Multithreaded Firefox would be nice (Not that I'm using it for alot of heavy tasks...)

Nothing bad, was just saving the Art Thread

While Chrome is fast it lacks the functions and features that I need that save more time in the long run over faster page loads / etc.

Negative. The HAF X embodies everything I disagree with when it comes to computer-cases.
