What doesyour computer setup look like?
« on: November 26, 2012, 07:48:03 AM »
ya' gotta' pardon the darkness as I love sitting in the dark
my eyes like it better
but here are my two computers sitting side by side
 the left one is online the right one is for pins and file storage
and any freeware demos that tend to have end dates to them
like Wavepad pro which while being bought by me last year
they now say it is a defunct program and is NOT compatible with their existing software
so I keep it offline therefore avoiding having to repurchase it all over again
same goes for Screenshot Studio whose demo ended or should have but since it is offline
I can use it forever with no hassles on the demo ending since it checks online for the actual usage time
 oh that pic on screen is the true faralos my first multi piece figurine built by me

See? You have everything for a cab right there! Take the ws and lay it down and use the other for a BG. ;D
My wavepad still works as is with the current date on my computer. What are your specs?



Here's mine, but I have to update the pic at a later time. It's a scratchbuilt desktop (yes, me with my own two hands). Z68 Gigabyte mb,    I-5 2400k processor (3.1, 3.4 turbo), 16g ddr3 ram, 650w ps, GT220 1g ddr3 graphics card, WD 1.5tb 6gb/s and an extra hd leftover from the IBM desktop giving me total 2tb of space. Rukia named it Norad as I did a backup once of 114gb in a little over an hour. Built for about 500$ and running windows 7 ultimate x64. It runs my cab from the end of my workbench. I simply use a hotkey to extend the screens to play, then back to duplicate to work.

What? No water cooling? And are those Neons? To be honest I don't play as much as I build,
to dedicate both my monitors in use to pinball, and yeah I have a third flat screen
at my girlfriends house in storage and am too lazy to do the hookup for that third monitor
but I just build for the most part or play existing ones.

My case will support water cooling (Sentey Black Box Case,45$), but as I can't overclock (locked processor) it's not really needed. Besides, I have a temp guage utility, as well as one on the front- (with an alarm clock), which I think the most I've seen is 115F. Aren't you glad you helped me start out Faralos? ;D

Actually, Itch I like being able to show someone this stuff
even if they pass me up when it comes to learning new stuff!
Hey if you did not learn all this stuff, we would not be posting here now would we?
Heck even using templates you wrote from scratch!
So yeah I am glad, jealous at times, but glad

Mine is such a perfect setup - I will not post a pikky for fear of offending all the slobs here ;)
