Quick, how's the wire clutter behind the TV?

It's nuts, I have everything hooked up to mutiple things, at one point it was undercontrol and not visable but its impossible now, i keep chaging/adding things... like just last week i added 2 optical splitters for the 360 and my HDTiVo, that added 4 more optical cables :(

verry nice dazzla and quick !

Thanks.

Dazzla, i love that computer desk and tv stand, very nice. Is it uncomfortable on the arms when typing?

Teehee.

Here's my room.

Awsome room! now thats what i wish my place looked like :(

The keyboard is actually butt up against the iMac normally, I just moved it to the middle for the photo so it's cool to type on. I decided not to fit the keyboard tray when assembling the desk, it fits level with the 2 units under the glass but I don't like them. It's from Argos as well.

The K750i is still there, check the desk on the right hand side in the compartment above the glass door. I realised I posted the same picture twice, here's the other one I was supposed to post. Just a different angle of the desk.

dang i wish i had a setup like that. can anybody recomend me a desk i just have one computer and a 5.1 surrond system doesnt need to be huge

an ikea jerker is the most popular choice....however, for me it didn't have enough places for storage built in. I like a desk that is kinda like a small office desk w/ a hatch. I just went and searched the local computer retail chains (office depot, staples, etc..)...I ended up with one from office depot for $150....http://www.officedepot.com/ddSKU.do?level=SK&id=922097&&An=browse . I'm going to post some pictures of my setup as soon as my girlfriend gets back from NY with my camera. The only thing I found out about this desk a couple days ago is that the backing on the desk won't allow my Antec P180 to slide all the way back in the tower cubby hole thing and let the door shut. It hangs over like a 1/4...no big deal really. I just took off the door...i like it better this way really, so I can see my lovely case that I paid as much as my desk for.

Rite ill start from the top......

I?m new on here (registration wise) I?ve always read things on here; mainly XP customization which I?ve sadly got a bit too lazy to deal with now?..

At the moment my setup is as follows, id like to think I?m not a newb but I just don?t remember what the specifics of my tower are o in a nutshell :

AMD XP 3200+

1 GB ram

?nice mother board ? its not the best at the time but does the job well?

16x DVD rw

m-audio 24/96 soundcard (rca)

128mb 5600 graphics

Analogue TV tuner card, with free view box running through

The worst mouse and keyboard combination ever

Cooler master centurion black case

A 21in crt monitor

Here is my disgrace for a setup at the moment?..

My aim is to make everything nice and happy

I figured I need to have a major rethink and sort something out. I?ve come to the decision that I?m selling my turntables and mixer and desk etc. that will solve 2 problems?.lack of space and lack of money

My plans/hopes are to get a full new nice desk I?m looking around 100pounds plus a new chair again just short of 100 pounds (I?m also considering modding a leather car seat as an alternative) I think it was quick that had one from Argos which looked nice with the glass top?. I?m after something that?s ?contemporary? possibly with glass incorporated. I?m trying to make my pig sty into a minimalistic ?zone?.

So from the top. I?m getting rid of all the furniture you see and the turntables then I want to get rid of my brick of a monitor and replace it with a good tft (I?m under the impression that tft is ?better? then plasma)?.I want to use this screen I get for my pc and TV.

Where do I start. What?s a good size to look for? What?s a good model/brand?

Any help much appreciated. looseone

alright geez. you will probably get moaned at for asking these upgrade questions and things on this thread but anyways... here is my opinion:-

monitor: they do not actually make plasma monitors, though they do make plasma tvs but these are huge and not so great. flat panel monitors are all LCD - liquid crystal dsiplay- models. i would suggest a 17inch digital TFT, (by digital i mean u need to look for it having a DVI input). however it is unlikely that your graphics card will support DVI so you will have to use the standard vga connection for the time being... but at least the monitor will be future proof.

decks: don't sell them, i think it is a shame to sell expressive things like that. unless you are really skint.

desk: ikea do cheap ones. and pc world do good leather chairs.

peripherals: get a cheap logitech wireless combo in black. that will look neat and tidy on your new minimalist layout.

beer: stop drinking stella, it tastes like cats pee. drink some grolsch.

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
