Show Us Your Rig

I'm using the HDMI to DVI lead that is supplied with the monitor and it works fine.

Sweet! How have you liked the monitors so far? I've read bunch of reviews on it and have heard many great things about it. The only complaints I saw was their was backlight bleeding around the edges and the monitors dying. Have you ran into any problems with yours so far?

My new build. Nothing special but it's nice to me. Just finished 6-20-09. The cables look better now and there's one more HD but close enough. :)





The Torqx and all RAM slots full are additions. SWEEEEET

Hello Nate.


Looking good mate.


















Later Ted

Well thank you Bare Foot Kid. As you can see I have a few more slots to fill in that case. It should last a few years.

Let me start by saying I am really liking what I see here. Alot of you have really gone all the way with your rigs. So, I thought I would share our Media Center with you all.

This started as a "test" to see if it would meet the Wife Approval Factor, and exploded from there.

We started with an Hp Slim line pc with Vista Home Premium
upgraded to 2 Gb Ram, Added two 1TB Western Digital external drives, a mild video card upgrade (8400GS), and a processor upgrade ( Athlon x2 64)

RCA Home Theater reciever with Optical and s/pdf inputs as well as HDMI switching.

LG 42in LCD Tv

Hp w2207h 22in monitor

Harmony 1000 Remote

After seeing what Windows 7 had improved on over Vista, we luanched that boat and have been sailing smooth ever since.

This isn't my Rig but it sure looks amazing.

Ooh, Monster-y: 'Frankenstein Steampunk' PC


This is a steampunk computer affectionately known by its creater Dana Mattocks as 'Frankenstein Steampunk'. Personally, I would have named it Frankensteam or Steamenstein, but that's just me, and I'm awesome as hell. Except way cooler. HIYO!

The first thing you notice about this mod is its size--it's 8 feet tall, and weighs over 400 pounds. The project apparently took a year to complete, and it shows. Not opportunity for modification is pass up, with everything from the power button (a discreet brass valve) to the air intake (an old church floor vent) gets a neo-Victorian overhaul.

Good looking, Dana. Say, while you're on the classic literature kick, how about a Dracula model? It could look like a casket or something. Can you tell the creative juices are flowing this morning? They are, my shirt is soaked. Oh, false alarm -- I'm just dribbling milk. This cereal is being tricky.

Hit the jump for some worthwhile closeups of the craftsmanship.

Wow that case is amazing! Think of all of the time and money that had to be put into that case!

Thanks for sharing Mr GRiM!!
