Hello Ladies,

This is my setup in my uni bedroom.

On the left we have an extremely rare Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo A1667G (64bit Athlon 2.4GHz, 1GB DDR running at 800MHz FSB) running Ubuntu 64 Gusty with a Mac makeover.

Dangling precariously below we have a Thomson BeBox Wireless Firewall Router.

To the right of the BeBox, is a Toshiba Satellite A100 running Anchorman OS with an esteemed picture of Ron Burgundy.

Masked below my Bush freeview box is a fat Playstation 2 with its archaic brother, the Nintendo Game Boy.

Accompanying the Game Boy is a HP Ipaq HX2490 showing the infamous South Park Episode Casa Bonita.

Lets not forget the 300GB Maxtor external hard drive discreetly placed next to the HP Ipaq.

To the right of the Maxtor HD is an Acer 1350 dating back to 2001.

Taking up most of the photos is the 32inch Philips Flat Widescreen TV, displaying Neowin.net.

Above this Acer is my 60GB Video iPod.

My various mobile phones are dotted around the place, as well as my iPod Nano placed on the right most laptop.

This laptop is an Acer TravelMate 8104WLMi running Windows XP SP2 at 2GHz and a 15.4 WSXGA+ TFT LCD.

Last but not least is my Red Dwarf Mixer and my trusted iron.

I hope you like it.

PS. In the foreground is my room mate Moustafa who was wasted at the time of the photo.

It looks as if this could of been tidied up... worringly

dudes stop ripping on awengraf's rig, its the REALEST rig ive seen to date. So what if it looks sketchy, I bet he could bring down the whole of the internet with all that hardware. And thats what really matters.

you inquired within didn't you....

Dear Ladies,

It is quite obvious that you are all jealous of my realistic setup. I mean are any of your workstations really that tidy?

Cya

No, but yours is somewhat of a warzone =D

Special in it's own way I guess.....

Dear Ladies,

Um, yes. I keep electrostatic dust sheets in my closet, microfiber cloths and clean my setup every 3 days as well as vacuuming the entire house twice a week.

Been lurking around here for a while and haven't posted so here is my current workstation ... if you can call it that. I have no desk at the office or at home so this is how I work most days.

Laptop is a ThinkPad T61p and the two phones are a W810i and a O2 Trion (work phone).

    • One reason it might be running hotter is dust build up within the cooling or perhaps the paste has dried out. You could always try repasting your old GPU and cleaning the cooler. Your experience in Linux will be much better with an AMD GPU; the performance in gaming is much closer to Windows than nVidia would be. I personally think on Windows, AMD drivers are junk.
    • I reviewed it back in March, but I didn't have a 5070 at the time https://www.neowin.net/reviews/amd-rx-9070-review-vs-rtx-5070-4070-and-rx-9070-xt-7800-xt--just-good-enough/ When I reviewed the 9070 I did have a 5070 to compare it against, so the scores are there for the 9070 XT. it outperforms the 5070 in raster, and is barely neck and neck in Ray Tracing. So it's better than a 5070 in everything but Ray Tracing where it is neck and neck, or just under. To be honest, the uplift from 3080 when it was new to the 9070 XT is not as great a step up. If you can find a used 4080 Super for around the same money, you would probably be better off, but if you only want to buy new then the 16GB 9070 XT is the best value for money in its category.
    • I really hope the author's health is ok. Squirreling away a official backup of this software. Looks like the internet archive already cached a copy as well - https://web.archive.org/web/20...ldbit-soft.fi/software.html
    • AMD is supported out of the box in linux because of their open source driver. Nvidia does not. All my systems are amd and all of them work nicely on linux arch without doing anything.
    • Never had a problem with TPM and started using that many years ago in Win10. Through several motherboards and OS versions, it just does what it does without complaint. My games library doesn't even know it's there. Secure boot does a lot more than support anti-cheat, as it came along long before anti-cheat software. I've used it religiously since before I started using TPM, and I always liked it for being able to nullify virus contagions that try their best to come in underneath the firmware during boot, so that the OS doesn't see them, etc. That is its purpose, imo. I'll never understand why people who elect to use another OS feel compelled to run down Windows... I guess they need to do that to feel secure about their choices? I run Windows because it supports all the software (including games) natively that I want to buy, and I've never had to run down another OS to make me feel better about it. (Although it's certainly possible to do that, of course...) Win10 is on a ventilator atm, and Win11 is very close to being free, and I finally got to stop running StartAllBack as I moved to the Experimental/Dev channel and my 26300.8553 build supports the moveable taskbar and it's running fine at the top of the screen! Finally, my last major dislike of Win11 is being rectified! So, I'm not at all surprised to see Win11's share of the Steam survey hitting 70%.
