I can't find anywhere that sells the jerker! So I have to get the Fredrick. The Fredrick is still big though right? Big enough for 2 monitors and still have plenty of space?

Hmm, not sure about that man. Ikea stopped making Jerker's but you can still get a used one.

As for the the space, i don't have a Fredrick, but i would bet money that its going to be "roomy"

Edit: I dont think you'll fit two monitors by the looks of this picture;

I'm not sure if that's the same thing... Look here

It says it's 140cm. That's 40cm longer than my current one, and my current one could fit another monitor easily (if it wasn't for all the shelves and stuff, that's why I'm getting a basic one lol)

Lol.... I kind of just answered my own question.

Here's my 'reverse Squeezebox':

Yes, it will live next to the sub lol. Sound output is from my Creative Audigy 2 sound card, using digital out (S/PDIF passthrough for external decoder) to the receiver. Darn Creative and their 3.5mm jack outputs, it took me a while to find something that would convert 3.5mm to RCA jack. Well, I found them in my basement, so what the heck. Connected via a standard 75ohm digital coaxial cable to the receiver.

The ATI thing is the receiver for my Remote Wonder II remote control.

Why I call it a 'reverse squeezebox':

The Squeezebox can stream music from a fixed source to anywhere in your home. Well, in this case, the music is located in a fixed source and any computer in the home can instruct it to play :laugh: (Remote desktop -- connected to main home gigabit network).

BUT it can stream music from my NAS.

lol 32" display, no complaints about size of the display of this media player :p

It was really courageous of you to still take the pictures of your setup even though one of your legs has been chopped off. By the look of the pictures I'd say it was your right leg?

Weird, i was looking at this one http://www.ikea.com/ca/en/catalog/products/60111123

Is that the Fredrick desk from Ikea? I'm getting that this Friday along with my new monitor, mouse and keyboard lol :D

No idea, I got the desk from Ikea and built it a few years ago

Is that a BenQ monitor?

Nope, it's a Chimei monitor

@Evera: Is that a selfbuild-kit from a Gundam up on the shelf? If so which grade is that? Cuase mine din't have the thing where your's hangs on

I think it's master grade, 1/60

Yup! I had some time and a small can of Tremclad paint while waiting patiently for my mobo to arrive. Why not!

BTW Mr.GreanShamanGT

Yes, i like the ATI/AMD combo. I also like the idea of having only one driver package (Catalyst) that install everything at once. I'm not going for a world speed record anyway. It works, it's rock stable and i'm very satisfied.

well I gotta say, that is one sweet looking system =]

    • 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!
    • Outlook classic is inherently better than new outlook, for a number of reasons. That said, if the only reason people need office is to read email, they should just use thunderbird.
    • Windows 11 is a big thumbs down from me. I used for a period of a few days while it was in insider and windows 10 was the main OS, and realised it wasn't for me. I am still waiting for Windows to be tolerable again, a shame as at one point I was very pro Microsoft.  
    • Classic outlook, not only does it have a much fuller feature set, it doesn't include Microsoft attempting to sync my emails from my servers to theirs. If classic outlook is ever removed from office, and the version I paid for in 2021 stops working for some reason, I'll use Thunderbird.
