Show us your computer room 2!

Love it Thierry!! Lian Li cases are just plain awesome

 

Thanks!
Hehe, yeah I love the case, it's great looking and the temp are really low (my cpu (OC-ed) idles at 25C!)
Next addition will be a dual-monitor set-up! But for now I have to save some money!

 

may I ask why you have 2 m17x laptops? I can understand the m11x and 17x combo, but 2 m17x I cannot.

 

I don't see anything wrong of having 2 M17x. Anyway, both notebooks are not the same; the first one is R2 (1st generation Intel Core processors) & the second one is R3 (Sandy Bridge - 2nd generation Intel Core processors).

 

maybe he will sell one pretty soon or his brothers are living together

 

Now if he has the need for that kind of computational power great, if he is selling great. Doesnt matter as Im extremely jealous!

 

My desk, complete with large amounts of mess:


Close-up of the stickers I have on my laptop:


The family desktop (HP Pavilion Elite m9402f w/Vista SP2):


Old family desktop (eMachines T6412 w/XP Home SP3) and gaming station (360, Wii, 32" TV):

 

So just moved a few things around.

 

Not the latest photos but I am still finishing my table mod's.

EVOLUTION:
V.1
-ROCK CTX EXTREME PRO + 23" LG White flatron LCD monitor
-2x30cm Green cold cathode tube self-wired to mains + 1x 3-LED laser green light

V.2
- Asus G73JH (in signature) + same monitor
- More lights - 2x 30 cm Yellow Cold cathode self wired to Molex hub, attached to left hand edge of the table to provide sub-eye light to light up all the statues and fancy cr*p

V.3
- Same Laptop + Monitor
- Lights upgraded with 2x 30-LED multi colour strips attached to laptop cooling system, 2x 30 cm Cold cathode wired to cooling system to provide side-lights from laptop
- LG 32LE5300 (LED, Full HD, 100hz goodness, USB support) TV attached to full 360 Degree arm with 20+- degree tilting

Speakers are Logitech 230's - for anybody looking for cheap-ish speakers with low space and want to game, these are AWESOME, sub on them is very strong and they are toned for depths (not for live/orchestral music!).
Keyboard is OCZ Alchemy Elixir, it has the best possible placed audio-control features.. volume, mute, play/stop, next/prev track etc.. right hand side panel, right next to mouse.
Mouse pad is Ice-mat (previously Razer Precise Xact mat, great stuff too!)
And yes, I have giant stuffed Spyro's and other dragon stuff in room...

EDIT: Cooler is PORTE FLEX Silver - Great design, adjustable fan speed, easy to clean.. SH*T STAND LEGS! I had to reinforce them with additional metal plating to support the weight..

@Melgarh: Nice! I love the green lights! I think I might get some for the danger den box next time I order from newegg.

 

Hey, I'm curious - why do so many people have their desktop towers up on their desks? It makes no sense (well yeah, there is that but you know what I mean).

 

No/much less dust and I like admiring my work

 

I have a danger den box. Its a work of art and shows the hard work I put into my system. Took longer to prep the pieces of my case for assembly then it takes to build and start formatting a normal system.

Agreed. I spent hours setting up my danger den, between prepping the parts to resist dust (novus) and wire management for a clear case its a work of art!

 

When you have over 2 grand invested into something do you leave it on the floor? Would you leave an Alienware laptop on the floor?

 

desk top

 

Just messing around and decided to connect my MBP to my tv. room is under construction - doing some painting and moving things around

 

Finally got around to cleaning my room. I know most of you all wouldn't call this clean, but I do. This is what a real geek's computing area looks like. Cable management can go to Hell.














And while this isn't necessarily part of my computing setup, I figured I would include it as well.

 

Is that an air ionizer in the 2nd - to last picture?
Does it work and do something notable?

Vinyl players.. proper old-"skool"

 

That is actually my Lasko High Velocity Blower fan. It has one of those blowers like what you see in some store entrances when it's raining in it and moves quite a bit of air. Of course it works. I bought it because my room gets extremely hot during the summer.

Oh, and vinyl FTW!

 

sorry mate but your room looks messy like in my opinion

 

Still loving my Disco Zen Look

 

My current work setup. Pretty tight and YES its clean. They put me (the one man IT department) in the smallest cubicle and Im jam packed. I have enough space to put my legs under my desk and swivel to another spot on my desk or the whiteboard. My wife laughed at me when she saw it the other day.

Althouhg its too crowded its kinda cozy and it is functional. I can reach my non data center server and my work rig (t400 or x200s) and I have a little space after a recent desk purge to perform surgery on 1 desktop or server or laptop.

Shots of my rigs at work (yeah Im surfing lenovos site in hopes of seeing the android tablet!)




Shots of my cubicle




Yes thats a picture of milton from office space. I have been dubbed milton or mushroom. Why? because they actually put me in a storage room where I shared desk space with the large files and the data center. The whiteboard is a workup of some ideas for offsite storage and being as we are small I have to find the cheapest yet best way to get and safely store 1TB of intellectual data offsite. Was looking into esata, but instead we are going a space constrained setup and using laptop drives and removable enclosures. Not too happy about ripping my data center apart...and yes I wrote internets (running joke here about catz on the internets! when we have network issues).

Well there is my current world for work!

 

Playing a little golf after work Sphinx? I spy some golf clubs.

How often does the lava lamp get fired up?

 

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Here's the rom

 

Lol yeah there was a work golf tournament I went to and I'm just too lazy to put them back in the jeep. As for the lamp maybe once a year.

 

Sphinx, what care are you using with your Lenovo there on the desk? Looks quite good.

 

My office.. Messy mondays....

 

Thats not exactly messy?! And the fish tank is epic.

 

Nice Aquarium!

 

What I would do is:

• get rid of water and fishes in your aquarium
• put your mobo inside and fill it with mineral oil
• fun and profit

 

wouldnt that just explode? hahaha

i thought about running a water cooling line but it would probably fry the fishes without a thermostat.

 

Running aquarium water through a block would also clog the system with fish food and filth I would think.

 

What you COULD do though...is run a normal loop and just submerge the radiator in the fish tank as supposed to using fans, that would still give a great heat exchange

 

LoL water cool your water cooling. An exhibit internet meme comes to mind there.

 

Water cool your watercooling in a water cooler.... INCEPTION. lol

I do have a 1000L/h canister filter with an inline UV light



So water should be particle clean but water impurities can still rust up parts

 

You could use that in your favour... Fish lunches without needing to go out. All you'd need is a potato fryer

 

Yeah I highly doubt you could safely distill water for the watercooler and still have fish alive. Possible, just not probable.

 

Too much talk about fish tanks lol

 

Here is my room & rig. Hope you enjoy!

 

^ Sweet. Cool table clothe pattern btw lol

 

wow that case is a beast

 

Awesome computer setup, but a bit shocked at the LCD choices though.

 

Seems like he really loves Asus.

 

Dexter FTW!

 

LoL, thanks for the comments, they made my morning!


I did own the PCMark Vantage, 3DMark 11, & 3DMark Vantage air-cooling WRs last year but those 15 minutes are up.




The desktop is for sale though, if anyone's interested just PM me.

 

Looks kewl,future perfect ! But,lol,if i were you,the first thing i would do is get a bigger table,two desktops on the edge makes me nervous just looking at them ,lol ! No offense meant !

 

Awesome setup bro! What are the full specs?

 

you need a proper desk man

 

Yeah, the desk I use for 3 laptops and a bonsai tree is bigger then the desk for your 2 desktops and 3 monitors, lol

 

do it halfhalf, as the stuff doesn't mix. one half would be fish in an aquarium, the other half the pc.

just train the fish to not swim into the oil..
