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.

19" w/ 8ms  :o

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.

Almost there. The ultimate geek place.

Now back to the dream machine. Here's the final machine. Installation of OS and apps in progress.

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 :/

    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
    • The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.

    • Qwen 3.6 is better value per dollar, and you can run it locally for free.
