Looking good Dumb Dumb. I'm looking forward to rebuilding my man own new cave once I move back home too.
Time for you to take a drill to the wall and disappear those cables :thumbsup: -
How much did cost you on your 55 ledvtv? And 24??
-
mm 55 inch sammy was 3k but my cost wa 1900.00 and my asus was 200 bucks..
-
It's an awesome screen Dumb Dumb. All you need is an intravenous drip and a potty and you'll never need a reason to leave.
-
nice stuff
may I ask you to post more photos of your M18X custom design and custom screen? This looks nice
-
sure ill post more pics as i go.. but my m18x screen is the stock screen.. although i would try to mod an r1 moard into the hp hdx dragons chassis.. lol to get that 20 inch screen..
-
haha cool, that overlay design makes the screen look like glass has been removed
nice anyway! HP sucks, stay AW chassis, you got all the screens you need
-
is that customized carbon fibre? guess it makes sense if they do it in cool colours. I was only searching it in black and white (for my m11x). Does anyone know if doing such a thing will affect the warranty?
-
all im going to say is.
CABLES!!
CABLES!!
CABLES!! -
so cables will be hidden! -
Get some LED backlighting for the TV. A glowing effect will look sick.
-
Very nice Brother D but one word comes to mind in that first pic. CLUTTER.
LOL I know it'll be great though when your'e done Bro.
-
Congs!
Please post some pictures of that: "3. 85.9 cfm fans mounted into the desk below the Notepal."
Congs again! -
ask and you shall recieve!
-
Looks pretty sweet. I plan to do something similar in the near future. Vizio was kind enough to let me get a new M series tv and it is SICK!. just have to mount it lol
-
cave girl is missing!
nice camo on the laptop. and that samsung tv with no bezel is impressive! -
-
-
Substitution alert...
Drop 55" and insert 70" Sharp Quattron Smart TV @240hz -
just to notice, that wifi router got to be causing serious RF exposure to your body, or you have the wlan disabled? I've checked mine last night and it blasts between 1200mV/m to 1800mV/m, now Im running just wired and powering this yoke down overnight or whenever not using, got to do something with my poor sleep quality and other little things to do with health... was shocked when measured my phones and there were like ~ 26V/m!!! Where recomended RF frequency is just under 614mV/m for prolonged exposure times... laptop itself emits ~40mV/m to ~700mV/m if wlan is being used... just thought I'd share some useful info
BR -
Where do i get that skin for the laptop? I looks awesome
-
bUT HAD I GOT THE 70 I WOULD HAVE USED IT.. in the living room! that thing had huge pixels from what i saw and my sammy is 240+hrz +the sub drive.. -
That camo skin is sick
-
Ultra GSM, I like your sig.

Oops - my bad. Still, I do like the link, too! - and that image is funny!
-
hear my monster fans spinning up.. and running.
3 x 84 cfm fans tornados - YouTube -
Wow, those are definitely monster fans. Sounds like some serious decibels. What does this do for your temps with a severe overclock? Have you tried taking it off the U3 and setting the CPU intake vent directly over the top of one of the fans mounted in the desktop? (The vent holes in the U3 surface might be blocking or disrupting airflow.) Maybe even try pulling off the bottom cover and positioning the CPU fan directly above one of the desk-mounted fans.

Are those padlocks on the door to keep people in or out, Bro?
there's certainly a lot going on in your cave right now, hope your not hiding any bodies in there.....
Your next mission, should you choose to accept it - get them cables sorted out dude! -
