[OFFICIAL] Gaming Setups Thread (PC & Console)


Recommended Posts

sorry about that guys, the server must be playing up as it decided to copy what i wrote 3 times and not actually put the picture up- and now it wont let me edit it :s, and i've just tried it again and it wont let me attach anything :(

Work hard and get a job? These kids parents are working hard!

I have a great paying job as an IT teacher/Network admin. I have an apartment, but I'm moving into a house in a year or two. I wouldnt assume anything on forums, you just never know.

what's underneath your ps2?

It's a drawer that was made for SNES cartridges. Unfortunately my SNES got stolen a long time ago, but we kept the drawer. Now I keep my N64 cartridges and extra hardware in it.

doesn't that lamp make a huge glare?

Nope I flick the tft to text mode and its fine and for gaming i hit it into movie day and its fine.

The flame removes a little of the glare when I don't have the main lights on. Its a huge living room so it saves on power.

However crap it looks, the quality isn't that bad, mainly because I haven't seen HD in detail so nothing to compare with!

Although i'm definately getting a new HD V, especially when I get my good old Pay through ;)

Heres the xbox360 (Connect to a nice pair of those Ultra Super Duper Bose Headphones and XBOX Live kicks ass 4am in the morning!)

hey thetechroom, is fifa06 any good??? i see crap reviews on ign and gamespot but i reckon they talk crap lol.. also, have you played normal xbox on that tv before? if so can you tell me how much better the 360 looks.. everyone is scaring me into buying a hdtv by saying how crap 360 looks on sd lol

hey SeMz... the thing is 360 does look amazing on SDTV as it is still way better graphics than the previous generation, but you simply cannot compare it to HDTV. The people who say you cant play a 360 on a SDTV cause its so bad are wrong- i have a 360 and have played on both my SDTV and my HDTV and it still looks amazing on my normal TV- but boy when i hook it up to my 26" HDTV it's something special :). Hope this helps. your friendly neowinian, mike. :alien:

Well my take on Fifa, its not too much of a bad game, to be honest, its only good online when your playing different people. Mainly because after completing the Qualification for the World Cup the only good thing left is playing online. Money well spent, well only if your gonna play this with friends online, and the easy setting is way to easy, try playing it on harder.

    • No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.
    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
