I need to dust, but here's my PC. She gets the job done pretty nicely. :^)

xD During the summer I think I'll try organise all the cables :)

Suggestion from someone who has done large-scale networking for about 6 years...buy velcro-strips. Never use zip-ties. Some of my co-workers love the "IT Porn" of perfectly run cables that are properly labeled and have hundreds of zip-ties, but I can say from experience that the minute something has to move (more likely on a desktop than in a strategic-level communications facility, but it still happens) you will hate every single zip tie as you cut them off.

Okay, so I have to ask... What are you using to cool that monster? I am assuming some form of liquid cooling because I don't think any fan setup would keep that thing at a reasonable temp.

Liquid cooling, yes. And the case design is meant to enable a high volume of air to circulate through the machine. It's triangular not just to look cool, but also to keep the machine cool. Air is drawn in by one fan in the front, and passed back out the back side of the machine by another. Since it's a triangular design, that means the back end slants away from the wall or desk the computer is set near, and can circulate more freely, so the computer isn't going to bake itself by circulating the same heated air over and over.

I can't claim lower specs than that... But I have one system with a 900Mhz ARM CPU and 1 GB of RAM. (Yay Raspberry Pi!)

Building an arcade machine with it.

I'm kind of yell-y. Sorry.

This is my desk before the move to Oregon.
I've got too much clutter on my desk right now that I need to sort before I can take a current photo that includes display 3.

Since the move, the only changes inside the case are two fewer hard drives (to be fixed soon, with two new drives sitting on my desk waiting for install), and a move to Windows 10.
GPU temps are currently high because I'm mining. Might as well make a few cents off reading the forums, eh?

OwO this is gonna be good. Have to rigs. But i can't remember all the details as one is not here.

I'll try to list what i can remember.

Rig 1: triple 1440 asus gaming monitors.
Sli gtx gigabyte 960 nvidia graphics cards
3 tower fans
Intel core i5775r 3.80 ghz
32gb ram
850w psu (i think :x)
Intel something something motherboard... It's old but was top end in around 2009
Hmm. Can't remember the rest.

She's my pride and joy :D

Oh and 3 Kensington 120gb ssd. With one 500gb hdd


One i have here has:
960 gtx geforce
A 5th generation intel i5 something with the same motherboard in my other rig (got these base parts at our office from unused pcs)
8gb ram
A 500watt psu
One crappy office monitor, samsung 1080p.
A 14 year old tower :D on the limit of fitting the gpu.
One rear fan
And no problems with it so far :*)

Btw 70% of those parts i didnt buy. Due to it all being used parts handed to me. Having family who are programmers has some perks... But not when you realise you know nothing. And all your actions online CAN be found if they wanted to snoop about. So that's a negative :D

Hey guys, meet my computer. His name is Bob. I had his power supply replaced months ago, the first one is an old pic:

That's him currently under my desk:

And that's my desk setup

Srry can't share specs, I'm out all day right now. He's not as impressive as you other peeps, but man this kid gets the job done.

Ye old cork board desktop tower... That's what i use for testing any faulty hardware :3 usually old ssd which have been found to be faulty. The company ordered over 800 Kensington ssd. After a couple years most became garbage :/ wasn't even so much of a job to me. Messing around with different hardware, diagnosing issues. Was fun!

Note: additional storage will probably required soon. Would like to eventually get a proper set of three 4TB+ drives to put in Raid 5, but it isn't really needed atm

Note: in the process of slowly upgrading this machine, just upgraded the Case and Cooler, plan to replace the cpu, ram at some point after AMD's new line hits, which may require also require a mobo upgrade. A GPU upgrade is needed as well, but again, this is waiting until after nVidia drops their Pascal line due out later this year. Cooling was my immediate concern with my stock cpu fan slowly dying.

HDD0: 250 Gig WesternDigital 7200 RPM Sata II 3Gb/s
HDD1: 160 Gig something or other salvaged from an old HP with windows 7 slapped on it for a friend.
note: while generally used for transcoding, rendering, compiling large chunks of code, and cpu intensive things that i don't want to bog down my main rig with when i'm busy gaming or heavily multi-tasking- this machine is currently out on loan to a friend in need.

So sue me, I'm a nerd. Anything marked with * is slated for replacement/upgrade as funds are available to dump into my obsession.
