Show off your rigs and gaming set-ups

I thought it would be cool to see the other members set-ups. Here are a few pics of mine:

I'll post some pics of my TV and consoles at some point, first I have to find my camera. So post some pics of your set-up or just tell us what you have.

I can't find my camera and I've lost my USB cable for my phone so I'll have to go verbal for this one.... My rig:

All this is placed on a black glass/silver frame 'L' shaped desk that takes up the corner of the room (My gaming/study room)

How much did you pay for that?

Oh God you don't wanna know... lol I paid $3,400 for it. Speaking of which, I owe like 50 hours of work to my dad for lending me the money hahaha.

Yeah, I've been working around the house to pay off my rig. I only owed $800 to begin with though.

Good luck paying it off dude. I'll take some pictures of it when I get home.

I've just ordered it this morning and all I've got left to my name is £1.10 to last me all week, lol, it's well worth it though. Now I have to wait for the old 'snail mail' to bring it.

Well I used my mum's camera but the pictures didn't come out too good (and it's a 16mp camera too). Oh well here's my rig. It's nothing fancy but I'm proud of building it though.

Having the PSU at the top really makes cable management hard.

I know it's a bit messy in there isn't it? I could buy rounded cables for the P-ATA and SATA connections and tidy up a bit in there but I'm too lazy. I do clean the dust out every couple of months though. It may not be a top of the line system but I have made sure there's enough air flow and temperature is kept at optimal levels. I fitted my memory with copper heatsinks and fitted a fan to the chipset (although it doesn't heat up now as I don't use the onboard graphics)

yeah when I first built my rig I didn't even think about cable management, but later I went back and did my best to clean it up.

I will sort it out when I get the time but like I said, I'm just too darn lazy. I'm the type of guy that when I'm fending for myself, instead of cooking a meal at dinnertime, I just get a bowl of breakfast cereal (Coco Pops are my favourite)

I know what you mean. I've been fending for myself during the days this summer and I haven't been eating much other than ramen, easy mac, and cereal.

Ha ha, what we all need is a proper fit girlfriend that knows how to cook! My last one knew how to make mean aloo saag with roti. Boy, do I miss her cooking
