Just a quick refresh on my personal system.

(resized for bandwidth)

Cara what are the following icons in your taskbar?

- The open lock right

- The green "on" button

- The temp meter

What programs are hidden behind them or what is their function? Especially the temp one looks interesting.

This shot should show a little larger and clearer... for some reason when I viewed my other post from another computer it came out blurry.... Hmmm...

OH YEAH and I think this is my first time posting my desktop... I've browsed these forums for a long time but never really posted here... so now I'll post more often. Hope you guys like. :D

Too busy, too many things going on at the same time, very uncoordinated. Fail.

Wow. Are you really criticizing how others uses their own desktop?

Some people can't stand that much going on. I have OCD and can't stand icons on the desktop. The hard drive icon on the desktop on my iMac drives me insane being there. I leave it for some odd reason, but I hate it there, I find myself starring hate it wanting to throw my iMac out of the window :laugh:

I don't make comment here with regards to other people's setup, but I usually don't come into the desktop threads simply because looking at other people's desktops that are "cluttered" drives me insane. I find myself wanting to ask them how they can stand it. I don't, because it isn't any of my business, but I want to though.

sanctified: i was thinking exactly the same. impressive. (referring to the post, not that we were thinking the same thing.)

hurmoth: glad to see im not the only one having OCD on neowin. :p

einsteinbqat: could you share that awesome wall, please? =)

^is it just me or is your menubar very thin? i say, the larger view says 1400*900 and if that is your native res aswell, i want to know how you managed to make it thin.

then again you could just have resized a 24" imac screenie.

enlighten me! =)

edit ... okay, the new screen looks all normal again. nevermind me. ;)

Sorry, that was downsized. I should have left it full res. I have a MBP 17 High Res. 1920x1200

This one looks a little better:

Wow so you really have enough time on your hands to criticize something that someone else likes? What exactly is it that I fail at mate? Making something that you like or that appeals to you? If so then obviously guilty as charged... Hmm... wait a minute I just thought of something. This is MY desktop and MY computer not yours so lets re-evaluate this a minute... I like it and it works for me and that is the point of having MY own computer so it looks like I did not fail after all. Awwwe thanks for playing though sport. We do have some lovely partying gifts for you. If you can flame your way back into your little troll hovel we'll ship you a nice healthy hearty cup of STFU. :)

I think reasonable critique and such shouldn't be discouraged, but the 'fail' remark was a bit much. This thread after all is about sharing our desktops for others to look at.

I don't think critique should be necessary at all. It's a topic for posting our desktops, and that's it. It's not a group discussion on "proper" desktop management.

Hmm... I suppose you guys are right, people should have the right to just post their desktops without fear of being ripped apart by an anonymous stranger. Though I don't think we should all get riled up if someone posts negative feedback when we always welcome positive feedback. I don't know.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.
    • Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.
    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here are the anticipated specifications for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra based on previous leaks: 6.5-inch outer display and 8-inch inner display, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2,600 nits peak brightness Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage 4.1mm thickness when unfolded and a weight of 210g 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 10MP or 12MP telephoto camera, 10MP cover camera, and 10MP selfie camera 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 As for the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the device is not expected to be a major departure from its predecessor, although it could become slightly slimmer. Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
