 |
|
One of the greatest things about PC gaming is how much customization there is in each setup, whether it be the internals, peripherals, or desk configuration.
We would love to see your setup... or should I call it COMMAND CENTER! Be sure to list your PC build while you're at it!

Yes my case does sit on its face on stacks of plastic caps. It has two 120mm fans on the front for intake from the bottom. All the heat rises out of the top of the case directly out of the components. Its like the expensive raven cases. Dropped my ambient case temp 7c and I saved myself $200.
If you look really really close at the left of the first picture you can see part of my Valcano Vaporizer  There's a bar to the left of my desk it sits on with food, alcohol and other less mention able substances.
And for more funny pics of me at my desk with my gigantic headphones on.

The only time Ive used a disc was to install OS. Just turn it back onto its feet. Install OS. Then remove disc and put case back on face.
*edit* my power button is on the bottom of my case now. just gotta reach a little farther down(thats what she said)
All my games are digital purchases these days.
p.s. SSD are cheap as hell now. 60gb for $75. I highly recommend them to all my friends even my laptop using ones now that they are cheap.

Yeah, I'm going to get an SSD later this year. I know it's the biggest speed boost your PC can receive. Well, it won't improve your frames but everything will load uber fast.

Damn, I hope you're planning on going with eyefinity or getting 3d vision....that's a lot of computer for such a small resolution. |

Its for 120hz at 120fps. The additional fluidity is something Ive long missed(I used to play Unreal Tournament on a 120hz CRT) The problem is you have to have a computer beefy enough to push 120fps. I can run BF3 at 120fps at max settings so Im very happy.
Also helps with running GW2 at smooth frame rates with its weak optimization x-x |

| Great setup Sourdeez, but turning your case on its front to save $200 when you have $1000 worth of graphic cards alone... |

Im a minimum wage warrior. Have to save money somewhere.
Im starting think we should have made this a "Post your gaming setup" thread instead of just PC. Does GR really have that small of a pc gamer community? |
