I got this 32" Sharp LCD HDTV on boxing day for my bedroom.

The "tv" stand is temporary, as it barely supports my tv. Its actually an aquarium stand, but it was the only thing I had lying around. :laugh:

This tv looks small on the pictures, but in my bedroom its HUGE. My bed is directly across from it, so I can lay down and play Gears of War every night after work. :D :D

PS: I just turned 17... not too shabby for a 17 year old.

just a couple quick pics.. moved into new house & setting everything up. luckily the stand hides the mess of cables.

i was planning on just the 360 but by chance was able to pick up a ps3 when ordering the sony tv, and a few wii's were in stock when i was grabbing the 360.

the tv is a 60" sxrd xbr2. 3 hdmi ports are already in use from the ps3,cable box, and PC running media center. both component connections in use now from the 360 & wii

Also you may want to indicate in your post just exactly what consoles and or components you have in your picture.

:) thanks

holy mother of christ! :blink:

you must have been in line for days since the PS3 and the Wii came out almost back to back

nice TV too. I'm assuming you have something crazy like a 7.1 sound system to go with all of that :p

btw...I want your job ;)

haha. i love my job - work in IT and really enjoy it :)

I honestly didnt plan on picking up a ps3 (i thought it would have been impossible to find anyway, and was in no way going to wait in a line). but when i made my order for the tv at a sony store nearby, the sales person told me they had a couple ps3's in stock for "certain" customers. i couldnt resist it.

when i picked up the 360 at walmart last week i by chance picked the good time to go as they were stocking a few units of the wii onto the shelf

so far the room has the tv,box,pc,consoles. going to buy a receiver soon, and the room is prewired for 7.1 (2 front, center, 2 side, 2 rear). hopefully will have it set up soon.

My Xbox 360 is behind a door under the TV. It gets very warm, but at least it doesn't look bad.

The wooden panel over the TV slides down to hide the TV when it's not in use.

that is a nice cabinet.

wish I had the space/budget for something like that :yes:

I should be posting pix of my new 42" LCD and setup by the weekend (if Newegg ships my order by tomorrow :s)

    • It won't perform hugely better than the 3080 unless you're VRAM limited in games. Have you tried putting new thermal pads on them 3080 and giving it a good clean to see if you can regain your temps and overclock?
    • Windows 95 offered the ability to add and edit the right click menus, on a per file type basis. This feature seems to be missing in the new file explorer. Are they bringing it back as a "new" feature?
    • It's nearly time to replace my aging Founders Edition 3080, it doesn't OC as nicely as it used to and it's running around 10c warmer than it did when I first bought it.  I don't have budget for much more than what I spent on the 3080 and locally, that means the best GPU I can manage is a 9070XT. On this basis I have a few questions: 1. At present I don't use ray tracing, if this was to change, would this GPU be an issue? 2. How does it compare on a performance basis? 3. Are the drivers worse or better than those for nVidia? 4. Linux support, is it there? 5. Anything else I should be aware of if I were to make this change? 6. Is it a good idea or shall I try and keep the 3080 a little longer.
    • What OS is that? It looks a bit like Mac OS but the command line suggests it isn't, either way I like it!
