I'm liking the cleanup, Deltrus! Though I recall you planning to replace your mobo with a more enthusiastic one, whatever happened to that? ;o
Your desk is a lot tidier than mine is Deltrus :/ How is life on a single monitor treating you?
Deltrus, I'm impressed. Your desk almost looks acceptable now.
When I get the money, perhaps. Atm, I just don't really have the funds, and for now this motherboard is being acceptable. I have a very stable CPU OC, my RAM is running great, everything is fine except for some kinks with my GPU. So it's a matter of waiting, I guess.
Thanks for the compliments everyone, I worked hard. :P Somehow Marest, I feel I will never get my desk perfect enough for you. ;p
I do like the single monitor though, especially since it fits perfectly with my studio monitors about 6" to either side of it. Looks very clean and slick.
Wonder what separate dimension you use for your legs tho.
It's more space than you may think - I do however have horrid posture.... soooo if that helps explain anything.
As long as you follow this:
I've been sitting like that ever since I started gaming, despite parents/teachers/etc yelling at me to sit straight.

It puts less pressure on your spine (i think that's it in english). The important thing is to note that while at a 135 degrees, he still has his back straight, meaning, having the 135 degree position with a chair that won't recline like that is also bad =p (makes an arc and applies more pressure on certain points).
But that's off topic =p, new monitor (benq xl2420t) pics incoming!

Yes I heard about BenQ's new 120hz hero that is supposedly challenging (and beating) Asus's VG236H. It's been interesting to see the steps in 120hz. I still have my Samsung 2233RZ, the first-generation 120hz legend.

Just got a new, acceptable looking desk. Thought I'd show my full set up.
That's a beautiful desk and you've really put it to good use, love the TV + ps3 and interesting how you've placed your PC so it's behind you when you're gaming. You really got me thinking about re-locating my PC further away from myself so I hear the noise less
The FX-6100 was an...interesting choice....but hey, atleast Switch 810 kicks ass. What GPU you running?

It looks like a cool desk. But me with OCD here, would you really sit like I'm guessing you are, based on the keyboard placement? Wouldn't that make you touch the side of the desk? I'd have to be having equal pressure on both sides if I was going to touch anything for that long, so I'd just rotate that 3-4°.What's that?
EDIT-
Nothing wrong with the FX-6100. He's running the GTX 560 Ti.
I discerned this from clicking his sig. :P
You're crazy man...I'd have to be having equal pressure on both sides if I was going to touch anything for that long, so I'd just rotate that 3-4°.
Doesn't having the huge TV next to you, annoy you when playing? O_o

My rig is a transplanted and severely upgraded CyberpowerPC. In fact, the only piece that is still from CP is the 6100. When I bought it I had little knowledge of computers and what I was doing, so I saw "6 CORE PROCESSOR!" and I was like... Sign me up! I never thought I'd get so enthusiastic about my build til I started upgrading, now I regret not building one from scratch and also some of the parts I've purchased. For instance the M5A97 mobo or the 560ti (just a month or so before the 680 came out), wish I'd have saved my money and boughten higher quality pieces. In the very near future I'll be picking up a 2500k and a Sabertooth Z77, and I'm debating grabbing a 670, or just waiting for the 700 series.Originally Posted by Xuvial
I sit somewhat offset, with my left forearm resting on the desk. I actually drive trucks for a living so it actually feels kind of natural.Originally Posted by tetrisGOAT
I thought it might when I first set it up and was contemplating it, but it really doesn't. Its hard to really watch a movie or a sporting event while actually doing anything on the computer because of how close it is, but I generally just listen anyway.Originally Posted by inux94
I'm almost done with my build just missing out on some Peripherals that haven't shipped yet and some cable sleeves next month.
The specs!
CPU: I5-3570k not overclocked yet due to some bug in the bios or setting i can't quite yet wrap my head around.
GPU: MSI TwinFrozer II 560 TI
PSU: Corsair AX 850
Mobo: MSI Z77A-GD65
RAM: Corsair vengeance 2x4 gigs
SSD: Corsair force 3 120 GB

The Peripherals that i ordered is:

I'm going to sleeve all the cables myself and atm it's going to be from MDPC since it's the best i've been able to find and they look very nice! I haven't decided on the color but i'm thinking half blue half black, not quite sure.
And i would like to thank this forum because some of you guys are just great!
Oh ye and this is what i came from 9 months ago http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...ighlight=azome
Even with the LEDs, that is darned sexy.
Kudos. And nice colourmatching and cablework. How did you like working in the case?
Looking very nice Azoome
I'm guessing you're going to SLI the 560ti's at some point? (with the PSU that got chosen)

I love it! one of the biggest selling points was the opening mechanics just love how quick I can get into it and the looks of the overall case is great! only problem i have with it is that there isn't enough room to put a push-pull on the H100, something i can live with but i would have been nice. And about the cable work, well lets just say that it's great to look though the window but on the back it another story.

Nah, got a pretty nice deal on the case/PSU that's why, thinking about upgrading it to a 670 at some point or just wait it out till the 700 (or what ever it's going to be named) series comes out.
