cool, although i doubt you've got them in the same dodgy arrangement. was forced to do that because the 17" monitor is too big to allow space for the speakers.

still, only for my bros, so who cares :laugh:

my speakers on the other hand are much nicer:

Welcome to the officially supported Gamers Setup thread. In this thread you may post pics of your gaming area, be it PC, console or any combination of the two.

If you have posted in the Post your workstation thread, I encourage you to post again here. Please be mindful of our members on dial-up and try to keep the dimensions of the pic and the size of the file to a respectable size for 1024 x 768 viewers.

I will also ask that you link to images on your own space, as much as possible. If anyone posts multiple images using the Image Attach feature of the board, they may find their posts edited or deleted entirely.

Have fun.

Great images people. Just a reminder about the rules. Try to keep the images under 1024 x 768, or link to them. Also, try to avoid quoting images. Thanks

My new TV arrived this morning, and seeing as I don't have a digital camera at the moment, I thought I'd improvise.

The colour is wrong, and it doesn't adjust to the brightness of the screens like I hoped it would, but here's my setup. (that wire trailing off the desk is the cam I used to film it with)

http://frazmal.com/andrewfee/setups/setup.mp4

I've got mixed feelings for this set - SD content looks awful if you're any closer than about 2m away, and the black levels could be a lot better. I'd hate to play REmake / RE? on this TV! Eternal Darkness is bad enough...

HD stuff looks incredible over VGA from my Mac though. Can't wait until next-gen for HD gaming. Tempted to pick up an NTSC cube, as interlacing shows up as blur on this set. (there's no blur over VGA, but games blur with RGB SCART or Component, so I reckon that's what's causing it)

Games do look very nice if you're at a decent distance from the set though, many looking better than they did on my 28" CRT. Wind Waker looks particularly good.

In the video, from left to right:

• Wacom Graphire3 A5 tablet.
  
• GBA / DS / CD collection, OSX Software.
  
• PDA is hiding away up there too.
  
• Maxed out 17" Powerbook
  
• 1gb iPod Shuffle
  
• Samsung LE32R41B
  
• AV Switch
  
• PAL cube w/Gameboy Player (I think that'll be getting returned - I'm getting framerate issues in 60Hz)
  
• PAL PStwo, modded for imports and RGB DVD playback. (I don't watch enough DVDs to justify buying a good player)
  
• Super Famicom with Super Metroid
  
• NDS, PSP
  
• Grado SR-80 headphones.

*Update*

I recently finished my home theater (aka gaming area) with a modified TV stand. I wasn't going to spend $500 on the official Sony stand and Ikea furniture was garbage. I found this deal for $99 at CompUSA, removed the feet, and lowered the glass on top so that the TV was eye level from my futon. Anyway...

Television: Sony 50" Grand Wega (third generation)

Sound System: Sony 300 Watt Home Theater (Dolby Digital 5.1 & DTS)

Furniture: Bush Genesis II (modified)

Consoles: (left to right) Nintendo 64, DreamX-733 (Xbox mod), Dreamcast

Remote: Sony Remote Commander (RM-VL1000)

Here's my setup. Its a Dell Dimension 4600 with a P4 3.0 GHZ, 120 GB SATA HDD, 512 MB RAM, Samsung 48x CD Burner, I/O Magic 16x DVD Burner and crappy Dell 17" CRT.

This is the old computer. It has a P3 1.0 GHz, 192 MB SDRAM, 40 GB HDD, DVD-ROM, 8x HP CD Burner and HP 17" CRT. The printers are an Epson Stylus Photo R200 and a Dell All-in-One A940.
