Show Us Your Rig [6]

[N00berG00ber]

lol when i use to race Motocross, the more stickers that were on your bike, the more Horsepower you got. 1 sticker = 10HP

Stickers don't make it faster, but red LEDs do.

Alright, woohoo!!!

Very clean Drew , are you sure your printer is big enough lol.

Actually it's not. It prints up to 13 x 19 prints and I'm actually looking to get something a little bigger so that I can print 16 x 20.

As you see, I do my own prints

You are gonna need a bigger desk

Yeah I've been contemplating the space needs, but I'll make due seeing how I really need that printer. How to sneak it past the wife tough is the bigger issue

Very nice setup Drew, nice and orderly, how can you stand it?

I suspect your ink bill is more than my annual income.

Well considering I haven't been printing the amount of stuff I'd like (aka sales), my ink bills have been rather sparse. Hopefully this changes in 14 and adds to my income while keeping the ink bills low

Those are some nice looking desks Dom and Drew. I agree with Gary. It's too clean and orderly. I'd be afraid to use it. I may mess something up, which I usually do. Very nice, both of you.

Well I am somewhat of a compulsive neat freak in that I like things organized. On the flipside when I'm working, it looks like I've thrown stuff all over the place. You're just seeing the clean side now

BTW I just added a Samsung 840 Pro SSD drive drive to the system

Replaced my OCZ as the OS drive with it.

For Christmas I bought this monitor and a desk so my setup is finally finished! (Never truly finished though, still need to upgrade some parts!)

The blue glow in the dark is very ominous!

Good to see you here Dom

LOL, I'm just going back to peachy keen or groovy.

That's a gnarly idea Gary

Alright, woohoo!!!

Nice lighting in that case, looks cool.

 

[Britton30]

Yeah Bill gnarly, that's a tubular idea.

Nice choice, Drew. I think you will like it and you got a good price too. Amazon Prime wins again.

Yea, it's the bees knees isn't it.

Nice, $40 less that what I paid for mine. I'm using it in my system now after testing in my test system. I can see an improvement in over all performance over the 128GB M4 I had.

 

[Dom]

This is a seriously clean desk and room, either you or someone in the house is to be commended !

It was a guest room before I moved in hahaa, my mum loves to keep things clean. I'll try my best to keep it in order but I don't think that's going to happen
Only problem I can predict is the dust... I can already see some settling on the top of the case. Thank God for dust filters!

Very cool and peachy keen Dom.

Sick, right?

looks great Dom and very nice looking monitor

Trust me, the monitor is gorgeous! It's a matte finish on the screen too so there's no glare and its mildly fingerprint proof

Good to see you here Dom

I've been more of a lurker lately

It's really groovy and far out...fer sure...

Yeah it was actually $209 when I first put it in my basket but went to $211.

Anyway are you using the Magician software with your drive? I was using it but every time I restart my computer UAC kicks in asking if I want to run it. Gets rather annoying so I just removed it. This is under Windows 8.1

 

[essenbe]

Magician did that to me also. I removed it from start up and it no longer happens.

 

[sygnus21]

Yeah I could have did that as well.

Do I need it?

 

[essenbe]

Need it, no, unless you are going to use the rapid mode. But, it can be useful at times. I just take it out of start up but leave it installed. I use it when I want to, but it does not run unless I start it.

 

[sygnus21]

Thanks I may reinstall it later and do as you suggested with leaving it out of start-up.

BTW is Rapid Mode designed for the long haul? I would think not or else it would have been set by default. Unless it's Windows specific - i.e. only for modern OS's - 7/8/8.1

Thanks

 

[essenbe]

Truthfully, I'm not sure what it does exactly other than set up some sort of ram disk. I have used it and not used it. I can tell no difference in every day operation, but it will give you some very impressive benchmark scores. That being said, it may be helpful to someone like you in moving large files around, I don't know. You may want to give it a try and see if it helps. If not, disable it in Magician with the click of a button.

 

[sygnus21]

Yeah I'll have to give that a try. BTW for some odd reason AS SSD keeps erroring out on me. Did it with both my OCZ and now Samsung drive. I posted the issue here but no one has answered - http://www.sevenforums.com/hardware...your-ssd-performance-2-a-148.html#post2636697



However since moving the drive from port 0 to 1 it runs without issue. However I'm quite sure it isn't the ports though, as I was able to run ATTO Benchmark on both the OCZ when it was on port 0, and now the Samsung which is now on port 0 without issue. And I'm having no port issues with any drives connected so...
