Show Us Your Rig [8]

[essenbe]

Paul, I don't see your Xbox. Where are you going to put that?

 

[Britton30]

Paul your case is too nice to bury it, move Marilyn and put it there.

Move Marilyn! That's an outrage!

 

[Britton30]

Nah Steve, PC's take precedence.

Only if you need Viagra

:roflmao:

Paul, sorry to hear about the move. You should move it up though, it may get dusty down below. I know you never have a dusty rig

 

[essenbe]

Doug, I probably shouldn't have said that, but the :devil2: made me do it.

So my rig has been relocated. Those of you that know me know I have had my rig in a log cabin for...well like forever. Well me and my missus split up after 14 years and I have moved and so too has my PC. Here it is in it's new home tucked underneath

Awesome new place Paul...neat & tidy!

Congrats for the move and sorry for hearing you split with your Miss.

Was it the platter wood desk that use to be in the log cabin?

Nice set up, Paul; I wish I had that much room. I'm sorry to hear about your marriage.

Thanks Lady F

I sold it. Needed the money and TBH 30FPS at less than 1080p was not really doing it for me.

It's not my house Gary, I have already taken over the main place in the room. I had to keep it out the way as best I could.

Cheers Doug, as I said to Gary, it's not my house so I don't want to take the pee having it up top. The case has dust filters on the front and bottom and it's not a particularly dusty environment so it shouldn't be too bad.

Thanks NoN, it's not my place but somewhere I can stay for as long as I like while I save a deposit to rent a flat. No it's not the worktops from the cabin.

 

[NoN]

Yeah, I wish i had moved too, back in March. I was supposed having a new flat either in Center town, less than five Mns from all Urban transports . Guess i'll have to wait again!

Haven't broke but i'm not living with...

 

[AddRAM]

Sorry to hear of the break up Paul, but everything`s done for a reason

Thanks Brian, I am fine mate. Happier than ever actually lol.

Just been messing around with my monitor, tried it in portrait mode for the first time. It looks kind of stupid on the desk but it's pretty cool, I can see the whole SF Forum without having to scroll haha!

I saw that monitor mount idea on a Dell 17" recently, thought it was pretty cool.. But I didn't really appreciate it until now.

[edit] But I must admit, I do like being able to read your post all on one line.

 

[essenbe]

I agree with ZaLith. It could cause issues. But, if it looked like this, I would be impressed.

It was fun trying it out, I find at 2560x1440 there is a lot of wasted space on the forum and in wide mode it's just too wide. It doesn't bother me but it was pretty cool at 1440x2560.

Here are a couple of pics at both resolutions to show how much is displayed in a thread.

Lol, now that would be nice Steve, I think I would need some more GPU's too!

 

[NoN]

You could use either one big central monitor set to landscape then two smaller sided ones set in portrait mode...

I've tried portrait on my monitor, thinking it would be great to see entire pages. It didn't work out for me, however, because my neck got sore looking up and down all the time.

 

[Dude]

I agree, unless I'm working a big spreadsheet, portrait mode isn't worth it. I prefer the scrolling function

Think I might have to attempt that with my 3 new monitors at some point. Not sure if I'll have enough space in my tiny flat at the moment though, but I will find out tomorrow...

My big brother did something similar many years back, don't remember the exact sizes (I was very young), but I think it was a 24" in landscape with a 17" in portrait on each side. Back then, and to a small kid, that kind of setup is pretty darn amazing hey!
