I didn't notice.

It did look nice, but the widescreens are a bit disorienting to me. I have one at work and after using that is when I got my screens. After using a widescreen for over a year, I'm still not too comfortable with it.

I thought it was about time I posted mine ;)

What desk is that? And if you want a cheap secondary 19" lcd the samsung 910t is pretty good (if you don't mind 25ms response time) and is only 445 at newegg. If you need a faster response time their are a few others in that price range that are 16ms but I forget the brand and models.

Yea the 2 MX1000's are for the ibook and pc :)

I really want an additional 2 LCD's, as my current one has a rubbish vertical viewing angle. Was possibly looking the Dell UltraSharpe 2005FPW 20" but I haven't heard great things about dead pixels and stuff, also don't like the look of 'em !

Desk was from ikea, but that was years ago and I don't think they make it anymore :(

New pic of my comp w/ new burner.

It's nice not to have to pull out the treay by hand anymore. What happened was that I came back from swimming, before I went outside, I left my computer burning a CD, of course, it opened. You know the adjuster handle for the chair? That was over the drive tray I came back, sat down, and I'm sure you can figure out the rest from here. But I got 1 3/4 years out of it before it went.

Edit: flipped pic of computer.

You do realize that BenQ Manufactures dells monitors, right? I got 3 BenQ FP767's and I won't pay Dell's prices when their stuff isn't any better anyway.

I'll post benchmarks and a full review soon, when I have everything operational in work environment.

Cheers.

switch out that crt for the dell 2001fp in the background!

Those are dual Dell FP2001 displays there btw, and yes this is just a temporary setup until I install everything. I still need to work and complete projects. But once it's done, dual LCDs with LX700 keyboard and MX1000 (aka MX3100) goes on this dual Xeon. But thanks for the advice. The older machine gets a dual CRT Mitsubishi's.

*stands in puddle of *****

That's..... just..... expensive.............

Well, if you want to compare..

Dell 1704Fp = $400

Benq 17" = $350

Dell specs:

12ms response

1000:1 contrast ratio

Benq specs

16ms response

400:1 contrast ratio

I think the dell is worth the extra $50. Although Benq manufactures dell's monitors, they are much better than the benq branded ones. Im running dual 1703fps, and think that dell's monitors are overall the best in the world.

Why did you spend so much on a computer?

you should have spent more money on peripherals like monitors, speakers and mouse / keyboards than on hardware that will be second-best in 6 months.

I won't bother creating another thread, but is there a decent mousemat out there which isn't a hard surface? I've got a RatpadzGS but I hate the texture of it :blink: I need a goddamn decent mousemat!

me too this cheap dell one i have makes the mouse move all around if you move it too fast, stupid optical :/

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
