Show us your computer room 2!

Your right,i didnt see that at first. its not worth buying but it looks sick lol.

 

Updated a bit, the new man cave:

 

Nice. Very clean and modern setup. I like it. I'd put the shoes outside or somewhere else though.

 

Is that the 22" or 24" Gateway Monitor? I have the 24" and love it (had 2 for a while but couldn't justify the 2nd and sold it haha)

 

It's the 24" - I've had it for a few years now. I've thought about replacing it a number times with an IPS panel but I figure it does the job for now! I'm pretty happy with it until I can afford to upgrade to either a dell 30" or apple display.

 

Ya I love my 24" too. Nothing at all has made me want to upgrade. I also see nothing but a 30" as a worth upgrade haha, and at $1100 a pop for a good one, this keeps me plenty happy!

 

Nice ! what speakers are those ?

 

Monitors: KRK RP6
Subwoofer: KRK 10S

I decided to save up and go big rather than opt for some Logitech's... Couldn't be happier. The monitors are wonderful and the sub has enough power to produce the low range I love when listening to music, with plenty of power to spare!

 

Don;t be dissing the logitechs haha

I have a set of z-5500s that simply blow my mind. I got them brand new for $200 (fluke sale summer 2008) and they continue to impress.

 

^^Look's good! : ) Clean & simply sleek!
I need to update mine sometime soon.


Cin...

 

Me to im going to put some up at my work to .

 

I moved my room around, and removed that old bulky CRT, you just wait til after Christmas! I'll have some more new stuff to show off!

 

I see two sets of of those KRKs in my future. one set in my computer room, the other in my studio. I should have my studio finished come this spring and those speakers will fill the bill for sure. acutally its a guitar room, I am a gear and have 20 guitars, and im building amps too. I have a mac mini down there so these will work great with that.

 

KRK RP6, those are a lil pricey

 

Not really considering they are self powered, so no amp cost.

This means they are more limited too since you cant change the amp and/or if the internal amp dies they are kinda dead speakers.

Most people that want self powered monitors looking for SQ seem to go with the AE5's

Amazon.com: Audioengine A5 Powered Multimedia Speaker System (Black): Electronics

Not saying they are better, just the most common choice I see.

I see these a lot too

http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/StudiophileBX5aDeluxe.html

Personally I always get unpowered speakers so I can choose my own amp and swap parts & upgrade as needed.

 

True, that is a good idea, I like those A5 speaker alot , thanks

 

^^Looks like I'm not the only one with an epic amounts of wires underneath my desk.

What flight sim is that? I've been looking for a good one since I got X Plane, 10 years ago.

 

Oh yeah, I love wires! That's why I've got a PC afterall. The wired mess is so delicious!

And that's Flight Simulator X, it's a good sim, although it can be a little buggy at times.

 

Nice setup, nice monitor, and desk !! lookin good

 

Well enough for me I must say. Once you use a 24" 1920 x 1200 display you can NEVER go back!

 

Heh its nice, but once you have 3 of them its even better

I miss the 37" as my main monitor though, so I imagine those who droped the big money on 30" 2650x1600 monitors feel the same way as a 24" owner does looking at 17" or 15" screens.

I know a few guys with 3x30" but I think thats a bad idea its just too big and too many pixels to push for a good gaming experience.

 

DboogieC, netcode10 Thanks
Quick update on my setup

 

I couldn't agree more. I love my Dell U2410 and I want 2 more badly.

 

Nice !! Very different, good job

 

(3 hours later) Well! Just read over the thread again, and got some great ideas for my future setup! They all look sweet! Jealous indeed.

 

Im fine with the costs of the KRKs....I have 5g worth of PSB's in my theater...

 

hmmmm good for you. you must like expensive sound

 

ah dorm life

 

I've turned my room into an office Took out my bed, who needs one anyways... it's now my home office/entertainment room!!

I'm still debating whether when I get my new monitor on Saturday if I keep my current one as well for a dual-monitor setup or just have the new one... Hmm.

Ha, I just realized the router isn't even on! BTW, sorry for bad quality, this is taken on my N95...

Yay update just won a Ergotech triple monitor stand for my monitors

http://www.mountedconcepts.com/ergotech-triple-stand-100-d16-b03.html

This means cable management time and new setup pics heheheheehe.

I can finally fit my speakers under the monitors now where the stands used to be, and while I have the whole setup taken down to install the new stand I am going to try to manage the rats nest of wires some.

I never use 5.1 anymore only 2.1 so thinking of removing my center speaker totally to gain additional desk space.

 

Hm thats quite an expensive stand, I could buy two more monitors for the price of that thing

 

Yeah thats why I never bought one. But it has to be well made to hold 3x 24" monitors and not give way, Its worth the money for sure. Being able to tilt your monitors and stuff, you cant do that when they are on there own independent stands if you have them angled since they wont tilt on the same axis.

Just a matter of having the money/desire to get it.

I'll known here shortly just how much it upgrades the setup and if I would have felt it worth the purchase had I spent my own money on it.

 

Dont do duel screen, retire that white beast. let the new sleek screen be beautiful by itself.

 

Very true! I'll connect up the white beast in the wardrobe where the server's are.

 

^ haha that my friend is a good idea !

Might i ask why you have a server in your wardrobe ?

 

No where else to put it, it's out of the way, easy access because it has no doors on it. It's getting a new house very soon, behind my desk, on the draws you may see in the photo above.

 

that is a nice setup WOT, what stands are you using for your X200 tablet that allows for the configuration that you have?

 

cable managment ftw?

 

lol i recall him saying he like the look of all the messy cables

 

tv stand attach to the ultrabase

 

Taken with my x10 mini 5mp camera

I would say you are succeeding haha

Get some zip ties though......

 

gotta go 5x1 portrait or 3x landscape, cant have those bezels in the middle

and yeah cable management is hell on a setup like that I just got the triple monitor mount today for my setup and have a lot of cable management I am going to do this time while I setup.

 

My new bedroom setup:

 

Here is the latest incarnation of my desktop, it will most likely not get any major changes for a while following all the work I did

Then:


Now:

 

Here's a new one after getting all my new stuff for Christmas, and doing a move around in my room to now turn it into an office!

As you walk into my 'office':


AND my desk:

 

joelkrause57, Much better, nice looking set up for sure !!
