What keyboard is that you have? It looks nice (but it's hard to tell since the photo's are a little noisy).
I like the Antec 900 too. My brother really wanted a case with a window, but I was hesitant let him get some real cheap off brand junk just because it had a window, and the Antec 900 was more than I wanted to spend, so we went with the 300 for a little over half the price the 900 would had cost. It was an excellent case for the money, and him and I had no problems with it when assembling it. I imagine the Antec 900 would be even better.
@Mr. Selfish, that's a nice bundle, but the images are way too big. Nobody wants to see images the size the camera takes them at. I was thinking maybe mine were too big after seeing the OP's, but they're only 1024x768.

The keyboard is the Saitek Eclipse II. I got the Antec 900 case about a year and 5 months ago I think; absolutly brilliant.
For scrin's screenshots I had to zoom out to see the photos, maybe Scrin can post photos of his actual computer set up on the desk?

I used to own a really old computer but decided to get rid of it. I also have a laptop, it is a dell vostro 1500 and it really has a crappy GPU but it work really well for renegade and AOE.
I also wanted a case with a window but the case costed like 89 dollars so I was just thinking to leave it out like so. Anyway....I wish the cables on the power supply and the ide cables were longer the y are to short so they don't all fit tagether nicely.

How about spoilers?

I'm not 100% sure how it works here, but with most spoiler codes on forums, it just physically hides the content, but it still loads.

Ooops, I ment to say "I'm upgrading to THIS:", not the "NOT" part...
I don't think I would ever buy a computer from a manufacturer anymore. I enjoy building my own and being able to upgrade the hardware whenever I want without having to buy a full system. I would have to much hardware laying around, even though I already do.
Going to pass this computer down to my wife, thinking about getting a new liquid cooled case since I've never had one before. Does anyone know if the liquid cool cases are a big hassle? Are they more of pain than what its worth? I'm used to using nothing but fans, and thinking about combining the fans with the liquid cooled system, but it sounds risky when you have any kind of liquid near your hardware!!! My hardware is to expensive to have a few drops of coolant dropping on it....
|
Have had it for like 4 years or so, but since summer 2007 I decided to drop it. Coolblocks and parts are pretty expensive, and if you tinker a lot to your setup, then youy need to recheck your watercooling everytime you change something. This because a hose or w/e might have moved and decided that it owuld be funny to drown your hardware.
I've had a couple of times in which the system did start to leak, and only one of those times any hardware failed. That just happend to be a at that time very expensive Geforce 4 Ti4600 
Eitherway, if you got the money for it, and don't mind spending a day tinkering to get it tested and running, than watercooling is great.
It's very quiet and still cools like a charm. Got a TRUE 1336 RT on my core i7 920 right now, but it still isn't that quiet. Might however be my GFX as well (ATI HD4870 1GB OC edition). All this in an Antec p182b

Perhaps you should consider the water cooling system as an investment, the more you pay, the more reliable, kind of a thing.

R3 does bump:
This is Eve 2.0.
I apologize for the bad quality of the photos, but the DSi's camera isn't really made for quality.
Specs:
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 (2.40GHz)
Motherboard: MSI P7N SLI Platinum (NVIDIA nForce 750i chipset)
RAM: 4GB (Only 3GB allocated because I run a 32bit OS)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 9800GT (1Gb)
Hard Drive:500Gb internal, 500Gb internal, 250Gb external. Total space amounts to 1.2Tb.
Optical Drive: Two LG 22X DVD±R DVD Burners
Interface; Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard 1.0A, Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse 2.0, Bamboo Fun 5.8" x 3.7" Drawing Tablet.
Monitor: Westinghouse 19" LCD
Power: 600W
Chassis: Cooler Master HAF 932. Modified to use a total of 7 fans, not including my graphics card fan, processor fan and power supply fan. (With those, it totals 10 fans)
Audio: Logitec X-230 32W 2.1 sound system. (I should be getting my new G51 Speakers sometime in the next week. I ordered them 2 days ago.)
OS: Windows XP SP3 (32Bit)
Images (again I apologize for quality):
I can't be bothered to open up the case. Besides, the image quality would just make it hard to see what everything is.
And yes, the DSi is the only form of device that can take digital photography in my house.
