Notice the Nyko Intercooler in the basket on the floor to the right.

Took it off as soon as I read a thread that was started here about it.

Haha yeah, trust me though if it was slightly warm in any area other than the GPU and the CPU I would move it to a better area. Don't worry though, I mean I am in Canada and it's pretty cold up here, I live in the 9th floor too so it's pretty windy thus my apartment is colder than the usual household :p.

I get what you mean about the whole carpet thing, my room is a warm room and when I put my laptop on my bed it gets pretty hot (around 60c).

You seem to be a big fan of Xbox 360 heh, If you were my neighbor I would just put the Xbox 360 at your place heh, and come over when I want to play until you get your own then we can play online =D.

I hope you get your 360 soon, do you have an HDTV?

HAHA, Like the sound of that. Plan to soon but for now my 2407 will have to do which can do 1080p so I should be fine.

Sexy. What model?

Nice, I changed my post to model # just as you posted. :laugh: That piano black is just so shiny.

:laugh: And then I changed my post to include the model name after I saw you changed your post. :rofl:

It is nice and shiny now, but if my cats have anything to say about it it, that is going to change really soon. They love going up on the ledge right by it since the TV is warm. :wacko:

Now I wish the 360 was black.

w000t!

The Simpsons! :woot:

Nice setup & nice games u got there :yes:

Thanks

That TV is so much more beautiful than mine. :cry:

Hows that TV workin out for ya? I'm think about getting the 32" one.

Not sure if you were asking me or not, but if you were, instead of writing over everything I have said, I will point you to this post in the thread I stared in the Home Theater forum in which I went into details about getting itand setting it up.

The answers I can see here is it is working out absolutely fantastic. As I stated, I have not gotten to game much at all on it since I got it in Thursday, at most an hour, but that brief time I did play, I was just blown awa. Samsung actually worked with MS for a gaming mode for this model itself. Gaming is just beautiful. Finally, although I only played with it for about 20 minutes, I can say I could not see much of a difference between 720p and 1080i.

All High Def looks great, DVD's look absolutely amazing and right now I do not even have them hooked up via HDMI, and they still look better than I imagined. Everything except the 360 in that shot was all brand new that day and hooked up on that same day. I did not realize I would need a reciever until I got the TV, so I had to go out and buy that too. Was not excepting to do that, did not want to do that, but I had to.

Seriously though I go into even more details in the link I gave you, mainly my gripes about now how normal non HD signals look really bad. Worth reading if you are interested in perhaps buying one. :yes:

No worries my man. I checked your profile and see you were born in 1990, so that means you are 16 or so right? Just think, when you are a 32 years old fart like me, hell, even sooner than that, you too can treat yourself to nice presents like this as well. And then you too can also get into debt just like I am. :rofl:

I am going to try to get some gaming on it as soon as this boxing fight I am watching is over.

Well I have a 4:3 TV as well hooked up the S-Video and I must say that it is a really nice picture. I have not seen it in HD even though my dad has one. He thinks it will burn in to easy :no:

Hey, what theme are you running? It looks more sleek than the default.

EDIT: after looking though the themes I found it, you can delete this post if you feel nesessary. Sorry =[. (For anyone else wondering its carbon)

mainly my gripes about now how normal non HD signals look really bad.

Yuh its shocking how bad SDTV looks on HDTV screen's... Stuff recorded on my media center looks naff on my 19ins LCD tv but looks fine on the 360 connected to an SDTV...

tho it works both ways, HD games look downright terrible on SDTV's(I can't really play them its so bad)

I'll post a screenie of my setup here when I get my new hdtv next week >.>

getting my XBOX 360 this week. Here is the sexy beast it will make love to and give me hours of countless orgasms.

Beastly TV in all its Glory!

    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
    • Good, because the nonstop chattering from the voices in her head made me quit the second game.
    • This new cabinet design lets you run AMD, Intel, and Nvidia PCs inside one case by Sayan Sen At Computex 2026 earlier this month, AMD announced a couple of new X3D processors for both sockets AM4 and AM5 as it confirmed the support extension of the latter till 2029. And although Intel didn't unveil any new desktop chips, the company's Core Ultra 200S Plus series is relatively new too. Let's say though that you want the best of both worlds simultaneously, and instead of running two different systems, you can have both running together side-by-side, or rather on top of one another. That's exactly what Thermaltake's CAPO X dual system is made for doing. While it's not exactly mandatory to run AMD with Intel, or vice versa, you get the idea. As you can see in the render above, it is essentially like a double-decker PC case that is capable of holding two microATX (mATX) motherboards. Even running just one discrete graphics card in a PC can get toasty, so you may be wondering how well the cooling is designed on the CAPO X, Thermaltake has confirmed, as is evident from the marketing promo image above, that the case supports up to two 360 mm AIO liquid coolers. 420mm is not supported. In total there is room for 13 120mm case fans. In terms of I/O (input/output) options for the two systems, there are naturally two places for those ports, one at the top and one at the very bottom of the chassis in the front panel. In terms of use cases, there are many possibilities. Thermaltake itself, for example, highlights how one system can be your main PC while the other could be the AI agent PC. Another example given is how it can be used to stream and game simultaneously with dedicated systems instead of hogging one with the entire load. Nothing regarding pricing or availability was said.
