    LOL.. I have 6 of those. Usually 2-3 sit on my desk... thankfully they're all charged today... I get calls all day for tech support and crap, and I like these phones because the speakerphone on them is loud, and clear, and yet people can still here me fine. OOPS one is actually dead... see! BACKUPS!

    If I showed you pics like a year ago, you'd see 9 monitors on the wall and desk and enough wires to drive a small city mad....

    Do you leave that boxes there when playing? I don't think that your AW will breath how it should.

    Yap, the boxes are set in the window so if anyone looks at my apartment from the street they get to see aliens, and get weirded out XD

    and she breaths just fine. she's held up by thermaltake GOrbs and the GPU usually hangs around 66C at 99% gpu load, and my GPU is OC'd to 972mhz core/1225mhz mem. which is 122mhz over base clock.

    I usually leave a game running afk when i run off to bed and it has no problem handling the heat.

    BTW i cleaned up my wires and set up a bit.
    Cables hidden beneith the laptop.





    My m14x isnt there anymore its back on my bedside table but it was there durning the worlds semi finals while i was working on my mmorpg performance.

    It is an awesome chair! The only complaint I have is my arms get sore if I use the arm rests for long period of times, they could use a little more cushion...But I will miss it when it is gone.

    My newly arranged desk area with my EyefinityDS and Gnosis build on bench.

    With this set up I can actually watch movies from my bed and lounge. Also a better setup to display my build.





    2ndary on the bed lounge laptop, with 2nd charger attached for my Razer Naga Epic when in wireless mode. I use the Naga as a remote when watching downloaded movies and shows. Naga Epic=Best remote ever. Both laptops are heavily network connected for ease of use and excellent cross system access.
