The Rig 'Caught-on-Film' Thread!

Well, now that I've been painting my speaker system, upgrading all my shit to sexification, and reorganizing my desk space, I decided it might be a good idea to start a Show-Meh-j00r-Rig Thread. I'll probably be able to share my whole deal with everyone sometime by the end of this week, but until then everyone here should post what shit happens to be on your computer desk (or under/around it, you anal assholes), including their computer.

Sure, mainy this is to tide me over until I have everything setup, but that shouldn't stop anyone.

Here's my shit as is. I just painted my speakers and monitor black for kicks. The subwoofer (not shown) is also painted black. I did the speakers so they'd match the new LCD, and now I did the monitor because I figured I might use this CRT with the LCD for dual monitors. I'm not sure how to set it up, but I imagine I don't need to buy too much shit for it to work.

Enjoy:

It's the 19" Hyundai L90D+ (8ms of w00t!), bought it off Newegg over the summer, its perfect for anyday use and great for gaming. The only downside is that the viewing angles arn't as good as some other LCDs, but that's a pretty small complaint. Great LCD for < $350.

Dual monitors - kewl.

Anything I should know about when hooking them up? My friend said I just need to plug my LCD into the analog port and use a DVI to Analog adapter to plug the CRT in, but I can't imagine it's just that simple. Any software I'd need? Any problems with running two monitors? What happens when you open up a game? Etc, etc, etc...

Actually those monitors are hooked up to seperate pc's, but yeah, your card should be dual head, plug-n-play ready w/ the right adapter. Make sure you have latest graphic drivers, and then check the setting's tab in display properties, there you can manipulate the physical location of both monitors, set the res, refresh rates, etc.

Interesting. Sadly the monitor didn't come with an adapter, so I'll have to wait for my friend to finish fucking around with his, or buy my own.

Yeah, it's the model that doesn't include a pad for combos or whatever that extra num-pad is for. It might also have some other defining features, but I mainly got it because it had better reviews on Newegg than the silver one - well, that and because this one is primarily black.

The kitty is called 'Jewel' - No, I didn't name it.

The extra pad has 9 keys that you can program to do pretty much anything. In game or out of game. It's basically a replacement to macro software.

How do you clean your computer? Can of Air? Special products?

O ok. Is one of those routers a modem/router? Cause I had gotten one with modem and wireless and it kept kicking me off the internet all the time and the wireless quality fluctuaded more then Oprah's weight. I wanted to know what your experience was with linksys. I heard they are the best (being a Cisco product and all) but my experience left me with a small hangover.

Yeah that and a good pot of coffee would do nicely too. No seriously I was thinking of encryption, VLANs, IP - MAC binding, etc.
