[hittan00]

good very good

[LoneSoldierRyan]

wish i was cool..

[iHaxd]

RUN CRYSIS AT FULL SPEC WITH NO HEATSINK im planning to do that on like a 12 yo PC

[Techlology]

nice rig mate!

[TraviHark]

Dust your stuff.

[karkrashful]

good god man!!, take out all that old computer crap lol and clean the dust off of everything!!!

[stevyd10]

there was no dust inside the computer. Only really on the screen stand and the front intake.

[STRIKER520]

You can do what im going to do with my old computer use it for downloads to protect from viruses and good to have for large file downloads in general.

[conceptmuscle]

So now you have no airflow over your Hard Drives. You're a genius.... Put your Hard Drives where they belong you wanker!!

[stevyd10]

they don't need airflow. The are not that warm. Also i'd prefer the airflow over the gpu rather than waste it on the hdd's that don't get that hot. also they are actually designed to go there as they are supplied with brackets.

[tteeuunnttjjee]

you can make a HTPC of that old one of you.

[parisloveme]

hey! how did you connect your speakers...??? thats not a 3.5mm jacked speaker ayt??

[stevyd10]

The speakers use standard speaker cable. That then goes into an amp. Then the amp connects to the computers by 3.5mm jacks to RCA type connectors. It's a bit of a mess but it works. I'm actually now using a Sony surround sound system as it has more bass :) even though the overall quality is worse!!

[parisloveme]

really??? your amp is the sony surround sound system? how come the over all quality is worst???

sorry for asking to much, i just want to know if a good component make a good sound quality for my pc setup...

[stevyd10]

Nah the amp was a technics amp. I believe it cost more than the whole Sony system. Generally with sound systems you need to spend more on the amp than the speakers (within reason though) a $1000 with $ 50 speakers will still sound useless!! On my pc though I just use the inboard sound as the amp compensates for the onboard and cleans it up.

[techforumz]

lol give it to me :P

[alexe693]

you must be rich as fuck...wanna send me your xbox

[mrhumperleg]

Ah the logitech G15 very good choice, I like the RSS feeder :)

[baggedandblown]

Get a HD5850/70

[stevyd10]

lolol its gonna be a gt300 series card for me :)

[baggedandblown]

I wish i could just get large loans of money like that.

:P

[vsdovsdo]

how the hell do u make it so neat cable wise?

[stevyd10]

This case is really good in terms of cable management. It has loads of room behind the mobo tray.

[setsnaz]

ur a shithiuse!

hello edwards cousin.

ur cousin ismy slave

hahah lmao

U FUKIN SHLAG!

plz get a life get laid, lick some pussy watever and sort ur life out.

and if u hav done any of that then do it wif someone other than ur mum or relatives. and u cant spike a fit girls drink. coz that doesnt count

haha so ur pretty much fucked

[DrivingRd]

Hey man, cool stuff but you need a big screen for that awesome equipment.

Good job btw!

[dragonlongrocks]

what case is this ???

[bluebob951]

you don't need a new monitor for 3D vision, there are work arounds for it as long as you have vista or windows 7 you can do it.

[stevyd10]

Yea I know I used them. It is what finally made my buy it as it was a horrible experiance. Anaglyph 3D is simply useless for gaming.

[computertom90]

its nice ;D what mac book is it ? i need a new laptop. 5**

[stevyd10]

er.. it was the more expensive first one :p

Its a 2Ghz core duo with 2gb ram + upgraded hdd. Its dead tho :( I think I may have overused it at school!

[RUDY2295]

lil dusty lol.

[gamgeez]

Wow, your 9800GX2 is not enough ?

You must have a lot of money.. I only update my setup, when i cant play a good game on the lowest details smoothly. Do you give me your GX2 when you buy a 300-serien card ? :D

[bombhead321]

WOAH WAIT, So if your a 'proper' gamer, why are you ONLY just playing single player games,and dude you have the time to play arma 2 but to too busy faping off gird, and viper is right you only buy games to see if you can play them.

[stevyd10]

timmeh, I do have a job you know! I'm going through a very busy time. Also viper is simply not on when I play games. That is the reason I haven't played with you for a week or so. I don't like playing late at night

[richy123xd]

Hey where'd you get that desk?

[stevyd10]

viking direct I think

[blackstalion48]

soo many wires, your desk is a mess. check out my comp and setup in my videos.

[stevyd10]

yea but a proper gamers room isn't tidy!

The reason I have so many is because I have 6 computers along with multiple sound systems and devices. Unlike most people with just one desktop with one keyboard and mouse etc etc.. here atm i can see 4 keyboards alone! That's the reason for the wires.

Nice rig btw. I'm thinking of getting an i7 but not in my main rig. EVGA just released a new micro atx x58 board today that looks sweet so might do a lan party build :)

[Robinson4643]

yea, your wire management isn't that bad.

Nice set up, thanks for sharing.

[LoneSoldierCobra]

So wait.. you consider yourself a "proper" gamer, when you purchase games just to see what they look like visually, you never play them (Single Player especially).

[stevyd10]

yep. Infact currently i am getting into a sp game (grid) its just up till now all sp ai had been horrible. Arma 2 is a deninate improvement but just havent had time to play much.

[LoneSoldierCobra]

Gigantic improvement. How about the fact that you slaughter other gamers who have obsolete systems compared to your "mighty command center". If you want to purchase SP games and see what they look like, I won't stop you. Your not a gamer unless you game, testing visualizations isn't gaming. It's being another useless degenerate to the world. By all means be a critic to everything as well, nothing works, if you fail at it, it is "stupid", you make no human error as yourself, Its NEVER your fault.

[stevyd10]

I do game.... just not when you are on. Don't worry i'll start gaming again - just going through a very busy and hard time atm.

[SKULLZ0MBIE]

hook me up with your old pc

:O)

[chucklez771]

I'll take that old one off your hands... lol like im that lucky

[korpel]

WOOPS i got only my small at that movie i gonna make a other film of my new subwoofer BTW you gonna buy the razer megalodon ?

[stevyd10]

Nah I'm quite happy with my razer barracuda AC-1/HP-1 I am actually very happy with the sound quality from uch a cheap pair of headphones.

[korpel]

my big speakers XD watch my profile on youtube XD yours are minis XD

[stevyd10]

My parents would kill me .... simply kill me if they were that loud!!

[korpel]

xD ON

[kimboslice223]

oh yer well look mate who the fuck are you to tell me that mine ent the bees knees

ive had 2 guys from 2 diffrent audio shops come round and say oh fuck me this is awsome..

dont bother telling me mines crap or not good because u dont evena have 7.1

[stevyd10]

Why would i need 7.1 when 5.1 is ample if setup correctly :)

In any case why would I care about the audio quality... I ain't no audiophile. I am a gamer at heart and that's why I have a decent sound card and surround sound headphones. TBH on the music front I really don't care as long as it has bass! And my sony setup certainly achieves that.

I think you missed my video entirely. I'm a gamer... everything doesn't have to be perfect!!

[neoonik16]

can i instal 240 water radiator on the top?

[stevyd10]

There is certainly enough room up there (on the inside) to put one although there are not any holes drilled so you will have to make some yourself. There really isn't any way of putting it on the outside without major modification.

[Henzzzzz15]

AS YOU CAN SEE,THERES HARDLY ANY WIRES

Maybe thats becuz all the wires are on your desk :D

Anyways,very nice pc

And a true gamers room.

[stevyd10]

:) thx.

most of the wires on the desk tho arn't plugged in. This was just after i got the new desk. I should really post another vid - "4 weeks on..." its an utter mess now!!

[Henzzzzz15]

haha xD

Rofl, would like to see that :D

[kimboslice223]

sorry mate but thats messny n shit

[stevyd10]

your system ain't exactly the 'bees knees' lol. In any case mine isn't attempting to be a home cinema.... its a gaming rig :)

and for the messy part..... i'm a kid thing's arn't meant to be perfect! tbh tho its fairly tidy - simply look at the wire organisation inside the case...

[alecromatico]

i don't like it,i prefer my sistem :D

[internationalobserv]

Use your old computer for remote desktoping, virus scans, maintenance of new comp.

[ThomasTech334]

run the old computer as a comp for rough use or torrenting.. thats what i do..lawl

[skateer25]

wht kinda of steering wheel is that!!!

i have been looking for a steering wheel with a cluch forever!!!!!

[igorbog88]

hahahahaha

[whohungupmykitten]

looks nice, but whats with the small screen o-o

[DavidC963]

np dude just whanted to let you know ;)

[DavidC963]

[stevyd10]

[DavidC963]

alittle tip for you m8 (:

If you move the side fan around or removes it then it whont make that much noise :P

iv got the same case aswell (:

[stevyd10]

what do you mean by move it around? in as rotate?

It's so annoyingly loud! I was thinking of getting a fan controller

[bmw2go11]

PUT VNC LITE ON THE OLD RIG IT'S FUN SCREWING AROUND WITH THE SOFTWARE.

VNC lite is mostly a controller. IT IS FUN!!! if it is possible, i think you can play 2 games at once!?

[sivaskar2008]

ok thx 4 reply

[sivaskar2008]

what cost your gaming rig??what is u r rig????

[stevyd10]

I bought it in seperate upgrades so can't give you an exact price but it is probably about £1700 or $2000 ish maybe more

[DjAndrewFlow]

haha... i have the same wallpaper as you do :)))).... cool pc man keep it up... i'll make one with mine a bit later ;)

[stevyd10]

:) i've just changed my wallpaper actually

[94519933]

Hey Stevy, how did you get your soundcard to work with 64bit, i cant seem to get mine to work, i downloaded the 64bit driver for it

[stevyd10]

er.... I can't remember!! Have you tried the 32-bit driver? I vagually remember that I might have used 32-bit drivers are there were problems with the 64-bit ones. Sorry I can't be of more help.

[weak1blaster]

just look at my video

[stevyd10]

looks sweet.

[HumorusPr4wn]

nice case how are you liking it>?

[HazyFlamesProduction]

take out all the parts in your old rig that would be able to be reused and sell them to get more money for games :D

[edge160]

Sell that silver computer to me?

[feverofhell2]
