Show us your computer room 2!

Thanks! Really liking it over the old one, but seriously, who wouldn't!!?

 

Here's the home base. It needs a paint job...

 

Here is my new setup:



I went on a shopping spree at IKEA as a Christmas present for myself, and I bought a number of pieces from the Expedit series: two 4x4 bookcases, two 2x4 bookcases, and the wider coffee table. All of these are in my 2nd bedroom, which serves as my study. The laptop on the coffee table is a Lenovo ThinkPad X201.

 

Did some work to mine, no new pictures but nothing really new to see just more organized and slightly adjusted from before.

The new toy is a triple monitor stand so I have room under the side monitors now and they are raised up higher.

I was so happy with my one 23" monitor set up untill I saw your room lol. I doubt those 3 monitors are practical for gaming but nonetheless I can't seem to reason myself out of wanting them

It would be nice if you could film some gaming action with those 3 monitors to give "1 monitor people" like me an idea how its like

 

Dont have many videos recorded from a camera because I do not have a quality camera. I have quite a few fraps videos though.

Here is one of the camera ones:

YouTube - Dirt 2 - HD Eyefinity footage w/ Bezel Compensation

You can find a few more and the fraps videos on my channel:

YouTube - ViciousXUSMC's Channel

Wow that video with dirt2 looked so awesome lol. I guess I know what i'll be saving for: 3 27" monitors, a steering wheel and an awesome race game lol. But I wonder, do you get notious playing like that? It seems that this wide set up could trick your mind :d

@ nx3nty

I have the same screen as you Do you also have a distorted video images when using a hdmi cable or is that just me?

Imagine your screen having an image like this:

When I watch a video and the camera moves horizontally in a fast way I get this image:

SO in the middle it seems that my monitor can't keep up with the speed. I don't seem to have this with vga (or not so obvious at least).

 

The biggest monitor setup I seen was recent. It had 29 LCD panels in a nice arc around the user. It was a master control room for a cement plant. I took a picture but am not sure about posting it in case they don't want it publicly posted. It was impressive to say the least.

 

I don't know about anybody else, but watching Dirt 2 on Vicious's setup was starting to play tricks with my eyes near the end there.

I could probably play an FPS game on a setup like that, but incredibly fast racing games mess with my head for some reason, especially if they're as surrounding as that.

 

I've moved my room around a little... The lighting in my room absolutely sucks!! I apologize for the horrible image.

Had a friend over today let him play left4dead 2 on there in surround, he was amazed

when your sitting in the seat you only see the center monitor really and the 2 side monitors just fill your peripheral vision and immerse you in the game, so you do not notice the extra fov or have it play tricks on your eyes.

 

Man....seeing your setup makes me want to consider some extra monitors Vicious

My CF 5870s should be able to take it in most games as long as I do not get carried away with the resolutions. Would probably go 3x 1680x1050 or maybe 1080p. Not 3x 1920x1200 though, they are getting too spendy

 

Just my single 5870 handles most games maxed. CF 5870 is nice though, be sure to get 2GB versions the 1GB is the real limit at that resolution, frame buffer fills too easy.

 

Got rid of the dock, raised the notebook up too. Hiding all those cables!!

Looks like you must have a nice PSU nice build you have there.

 

Thanks! Ya it is considered one of the best desktop power supplies available. Period.

It is more than I need but was sort of an "upgrade and forget about it" for me. It can handle 3 of the top gpus on the market just fine with room for overclocking

And as it would turn out, I made one very slight change from what is seen above, I now have the EK backplates on the 5870s instead of the original reference cooler ones. Looks a little better now

Got my MBP 13, Nationite s:flo2, ATH M-50's, TF UE10's and my Samsung Vibrant ready to flash.
Thats all my computer stuff crammed onto half a table.

 

picture came out way too noisy, I wasn't about to mess with my lights in the room and what not so I just took it with high iso.

 

All you're missing is a 4th Dell 2007FP on the right side. IMO there must be symmetry in any multi-monitor setup.

EDIT: Like this, where I have a 1505FP on both sides of the 2001FP:

 

Prop your camera somewhere (tripod?) put it on a timer and slow down the shutter.

 

I know how to take a picture , I shot that picture during the FOX blitz as I caught it when my screen saver came on. My original post kept getting deleted due to having the Glee GQ covershoot on my desktop. So this will have to do.

And Picture resized, the right 2007fp might get moved to the left side but I have to clean off my desk and arrange the screens. Also, i'm at the limit of dvi ports on my sli setup. A pair of GTX's is powering the 3008wfp and one 2007fp, the other two are powered by my third gtx which doubles as a dedicated physx processor. When I enabled all GTX's to drive the 3008wfp all 2007fp's go offline. I am waiting to upgrade to dual or tri-fire 6970's so I can power most LCD's with one card.

 

Roliath, don't forget the a30's

 

a30's and mixamp are for my ps3

 

Shhh I just remember seeing them in your deleted post. Nice choice

 

Pics of the rig powering the monitors below, don't wanna re-size so i'll just link them to the original post.

Great images! What site?

 

^ That's really cool! I'd love to get a big desk like that one day.

 

Thanks. For a $90 table from walmart, it really isn't all that bad.

And yes, yes they are.

 

omg that thing would break in a heartbeat trying to hold my stuff lol, and I would see the cables under my desk that would drive me insane.

if its not at least 1" thick glass I would be scared to have it.

 

Haha. It says the two main parts can hold 150lbs. I think I'll just put 20lbs on it and not become a product tester.

It looks good to me, just gotta take all the apple stuff out

 

So, today, massive cleanup at our house. Dad was like "Joel, come help me put this in the trailer" I was like, "but Daddddd, I'm gamingggg!" Lucky I did get up. He was going to throw a perfectly good dining room table away!! I was like, NO don't throw that away, I'll have it for my room! Instead of the big ugly desk, and it took an arm twisting but he finally agreed, long story short, I got a new desk... The colour fits in great with my room too, most of my furniture are dark. (Wow, my phone took a decent picture for once, that's because I changed the White Balance, which was set to "Sunny" it was clearly not sunny in there, far from it, dark.

 

For some reason the picture wouldn't load properly on my computer. Ironically I was able to load it up on my ipod touch fine. Nice setup.

 

@ xBEEMANx Impressive! Where'd u get the Call of duty poster from? is it framed??

 

I ordered it from amazon, but when I was in walmart the other day they had a bin of them, the half one like I have, and then the one that basically looks like the cover.

 

My notebooks. Sorry, very poor picture. Taken with camera phone. Planning to buying proper one though.

 

What is the that in the lower left corner there? Hmm? Is that... Pringles? Pringles?! PRINGLES?!?!?! I... want those Pringles. I am coming to invade your house to get them. Hide ya wife, hide ya kids, cuz I'm eating ALL the Pringles out here. And if you don't let me... IMMA FIRIN' MAH LAZOR!

 

off topic but a fact everyone must know (and prolly already does but...): You can make the best Darth Vader voices with an empty pringles can. Its awesome for team speech in shooters lol

 

makes a great dslr lens too

 

don't mind me, just trading stocks
































(not my setup IRL, but I can't find my camera to take a real pic)

 

No wonder we got in an economic crisis, if I were a stockbroker i'd be gaming on that set up all day ^^

By seeing this, a new dream is born

 

Liking, no sorry, LOVING the background

 

Haha, thanks! Love it too!
