Just about 45 mins ago I started coding a little weather app to display as part of the screen saver when no video is playing, still have to add in the weather icons:

pretty neat so far.. I like it.

 

[xguntherc]

There we go, much bigger pictures now.. sweet..

Thanks.

Hm.. so today I went out and made a small addition to my system..
I'm now part of the Dual Monitor Club.. hehehe

I kno they aren't the same.. and thats lame. and they aren't in the spots I'm probably going to keep them at.. but for now this works.. I got a SCREAMIN deal on a new 19inch Dell LCD with full pivot function and Vertical Rotation and all the good stuff. It was used by a 65 year old guy for his job, office at his home. Barely used, and in perfect condition. get this. I got it for $70 bucks and it looks pretty sharp I must say.. Here's a Pic for ya all of my stuff..




Here's my new Dualies... I like it very much so far.. I'm doing some pretty extreme Multitasking with it so far. I kno there's only more of that to come now.

if anyone has some useful idea's or tips for Dual setups then please let me kno..

Thanks!

OK, now you're making me jealous - what mafia are you with that you keep finding these amazing deals?

I seriously want to go to digital LCDs instead of my bulky *and HOT!) CRTs, but I cannot afford the good ones, and the bad ones seem not worth getting in the first place....

 

[xguntherc]

haha what Mafia I'm with.. the Mormon Mafia.. HAHA hell no.

Well I actually use Craigslist.org to find most of the goods I get.. this new monitor was found there.. well not found.. I posed a wanted add in the Computers section. not the wanted section.. called need a 19-22inch LCD screen.. and tons of people clicked it.. in the thread I asked for one.. not selling one.. and I left my email.. it's local listing site and I got TONS of people wanting to sell me theres, so I just found the cheapest one and best one I could get..

It's a pretty good screen I like it so far quite a bit. I have an old 20 inch CRT you can have to ADD to your collection if you wanna pay for shipping. it weighs more than my Truck tho..

hahah

thanks I'm enjoying your Jealousy at the moment. (Srry)

 

[johngalt]

Glad I could make you smile :P

 

[xguntherc]

hehe

 

[Young Baird]

LOL thats only £45 holy crap where you get these deals!? :P

Well here's my rig, with my own custom 2x80mm fan GPU cooler :P

Fans: 120mm with filter intake at the front, 80mm exhaust at the top, 80mm intake at the back, 2x80mm on my graphics card, 120mm CPU cooler, LianLi exhaust (never seen it before.

I'll be totally honest, I have no idea what model or.. version my case is. I've not seen it on the LianLi website nor have I seen it anywhere else on the internet. I think it might be a chop shop job. Since its a hybrid of the PC-65 II but has a weird exhaust and no window on the door. I aint complaining though, the exhaust is really silent and works well

The front and the front without the 120mm filter and front face.

My rather large 120mm CPU cooler, Coolink Silentator :D

My "ghetto" GPU cooler

Without the main PCI exhaust

My PCI exhaust is kinda like a larger one of these and doesn't need a PCI slot.. the fans pretty much the same.

 

[xguntherc]

only 45.. haha wow, that cheap... yes it was. I don't get these deals anywhere at a store. I got it from someone locally in my city used.. but it has BARELY been used and looks brand new. even has the sticker on the dell logo on front still.. lol or did.

Not bad lookin Jay.. whatever works ya kno.. Interesting GPU Cooler work there. he he

I finished this build last Friday.

hi oldsalt, nice build. I have noticed one of your fans is on the base. If you have room put two shelf brackets on the wall and sit your rig on that. It will give you the space underyour rig for the fan and will free up a little space on your desk. This is the first time I have seen a rig with the fan on the bottom.

 

[xguntherc]

I have the same Case, and it's actually lifted about an Inch and a half from the ground.. if you didn't notice in that last picture he posted..

It's a really good case. I have that bottom fan as an input fan and it sucks plenty of air with the little gap it has, then again I have a great fan there..

Looks very good oldsalt.. Nice choice. I like the case a lot so far also, only complains would be the I/O ports on top seem cheap.. but most do. next case will be a CM Cosmos tho. I like ur setup there, what cooler did you get for your CPU.. and now ur only task left is some Cable Management.. This case is Great for that.. as look at mine inside..

Thats it basically finished.. although that picture doesn't have the G-Skill ram, and doesn't have the new fans on rear, side, and the sweet bottom fan... also I reseated the Tuniq a little better.. but overall that pic shows my cable management.. better for airflow sir..

get in there and clean it up.. lol. you don't HAVE to tho.. but it's nice when complete

not bad not bad.. I'd really like to have your QX tho.

 

[Xen00b]

I'd really like to clean my cables up....but I have no idea how or what to do with them xD..

If anyone has some pointers or tutorial of some sort...that'd be great lol... I'm clueless on cable cleanup.

 

[Brink]

Hi Xen,

It's not to hard. You will just need some of those plastic cable ties to tie them together. I would start off with removing any cables that you do not need or use to free up more air space. For example, a external SATA slot connector with it's cables. Next, just try to place the cables along the edges of the case, out of the way of the airflow path, and cable tie them together and to the case to keep them in place. It's best to try to get them tied down to only 1 or 2 strands of cables instead of them all spread out.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Like Brink said, it's really not all that hard. It just take a lot of time to get it right.

Don't waste your time or money getting these so-called "cable sleeving kits" for computer. They never work right and you could end up causing more damage. Good old-fashioned cable ties work wonders, as do regular household cable-tidy kits. You know the sort - those plasticy spiral wraps you use to tidy up external Hi-Fi and TV cables. The 6mm variety does the job nicely.

I'd post a couple photos of the job I done with Prometheus, if I could, but I don't have a camera, and my contact is out of town.

Well you've seen the pictures of my Cable Management right.. I did it right from the beginning when I built this baby.. But ya like the others said, it just takes a while. and you have to unplug everything. not hard, just time consuming.. I'd just use old fashion cable ties.. or get actual Zipties. only prob with those is they are only good once. then have to cut them.. If your Motherboard tray has holes for cable management I'd recommend going through those and trying to put wires around back and up over the top for like the Power Connector, the 8 pink CPU Power, the DVD drive wires.. I made sure I got SATA DVD and HDD so I had small cables vs those huge and ugly IDE.. so I'm good.. look at my picture.. and check out where I ran the wires for the Main Mobo power and most the wires comin out the PSU..

Not sure if ur case has room, but I have a gap on the back panel for this.. It's sloppy, but no one see's this side.. see the bottom, that main fat wire is coming out a hole in the Mobo Tray.

and this one is old, doesn't have my GFX card, or ram and stuff.. but shows the Cable management really well.. see where it all goes around back.. then you can't see that with the back panel actually on.. if your case doesn't have any holes in the Mobo tray for cable management, I'd recommend sein if there'd be room on backside, and if so.. Cut a hole (Make sure to Round the Edges) and put all the wires through it.. it's a great way to help airflow! it needs all the help it can get.
