Show us your Workstations - 2011 Edition

Is it the lighting or does the Macbook look like a dark metal? I like the way it looks.

Just lighting (or lack thereof). I actually just purchased the colour-changing led strip from IKEA, so i'll have to update my desktop again soon =]

I just moved :)

Such a brilliant case. Has helped drop temps 5 degrees idle (39-40 degrees) and 10-15 degrees under load depending on application.

Great setup, and new case, I thinking about change on this case too from my Antec 1200, but in some reviews they talking about not best from intake airflow, Are you cut front mesh around fan ?

btw. I see Vileda cloth on the top of case using same cloth too ;) they are great to remove dust.

[Robbie Khan Reviews]

It certainly is good at removing dust :p I use it to keep my k750 keyboard dust free and gloss fronted monitor!

I have cut the mesh grille yes, to test to see how much extra airflow comes in.

Airflow is good either way though.

[peterPL]

do you notice much different temps with this cuteted front mesh, is worth ?

I think I will buy this case and also I will change fans for Coolermasters, but temps I think will be higher on my parts in this case a little bit than in my current Antec 1200.

[Robbie Khan Reviews]

Not any major difference due to yge ambient air bring the same. I just did it as a test that's all.

First of all, that guy with the Corsair case, awesome rig and awesome office! Very impressive, and for everyone else, great setups and really good ideas for design!

Here is mine as of a couple of months ago, I've moved recently but it is very similar. I built this rig for a couple reasons, to "hopefully" play BF3 on high settings, and give my brother my old rig to also play BF3 (likely medium settings on his :D) - My specs are in my not so awesome signature, and I'm soon to add 4 more gigs of the same XMS3 sticks for more BF3 friendliness. I'm also ready to slap another 6950 on dual x16 slots for BF3 if its required but no legit required specs yet so we'll find out soon!

My old rig:

Antec Mini P180 - AMD Phenom X4 9850BE - 4GB Kingston Hyper X 1333MHz - MSI GeForce GTX 460 Twin Frozer II - thermaltake cooler - ULTRA 600W PSU

(The power for the gpu is out like that to support the weight of the card :-/)

[peterPL]

+mrk - one more question before purchase this case :) you change front intake fan on CoolerMaster fan are you still able to put hard drive cages on orginal place near fan ?

[Robbie Khan Reviews]

No you need to move the hd cage back by the PSU as it mounts there too. The fan is wider than the stock fan you see.

My setup(s) (with my wonderful cheap desk that has a bow in it). I want an L-Desk for all my equipment, but waiting until my wife and I move to a bigger house. Custom rig with 25" HP LED Monitor and a 13" Macbook Pro (Mid-2010).

HP Envy 14 (Mid-2010)

EDIT: nevermind.

[peterPL]

+mrk - thank you very much for infos, now I'm searching some good 200x200x20mm fans with good CFM :)

[OoTLink]

your mouse looks like a bong :p

btw we have the same desk, but mine has the corner piece, and other section to form a l shape desk.

nice desk, i got the entire thing for $50 from some guy who was desperate to move to a new house :p

lol :D I have the whole set, but I don't really have room in this house to make it an L so the desks are scattered around (my brother also has a set, and I have one of his tables in my room lol). For $50 you got a deal :D

To the dude slightly above this post: nice upgrade :D Those antec cases are boring lol.

Also: An Envy!! OOOH! I wanted one of those and ended up with a Vaio instead. Wish I had bought the Envy lol. HP screwed up on my order bigtime and ended up giving me a big credit, but I couldn't wait any longer after that >>

[Steeler0809]

Ordered a new desk and have it all setup finally.

[freak180]

I just moved :)

what desk is that? I like it! :D

[OoTLink]

Thanks :) Those would be Studio RTA Executive desks, which I don't think they've made in a while. Pretty sturdy though! (and I like that the legs are out of the way lol)

[BeerFan]

Is that a P4 sticker?

And a 1990's model mouse & keyboard. :p

As with many setups, it's a shame about the cables. I wish "they'd" invent a good way of hiding them or at least come up with decent cable management in all desks sold.

I use my coffee table as my work space; here's my recent project.

What case are you using for this setup?
