Computer Setup

Absolutely! Built this one last year, here are the specs:

Very nice specs! What are you using for the colour changing LEDs behind the screen? :)

Thank you :) didn't even realise that they sold these!

I recently got the same lights for Christmas and I love them. Make sure you buy that exact one if you plan on getting one. The first one I got (that someone else bought) was the same lighting system but it was cheaper and didn't come with a power supply.

Got this same one from Newegg on sale for $25. Love it and will be getting more to add on.

Can I see a picture of behind the monitors?

Hey where exactly is a good placement for these? Should I tape them to the back of my monitor for a good even shape behind it?

The LED strips are adhesive and you can buy extenders for them so you can cut them and place them in different arrangements.

Have you tried cutting them? I didn't think they were supposed to do that.

Love these lights. I currently have a strip of these lighting up the ceiling of my room

We have the same exact peripherals :D

Very nice, my NZXT brother. Sleek setup and that's an awesome desk!

On a slightly unrelated note, how do you like AC4 so far? I recently finished it along with the DLC.

I'm having fun with it, I was never really a fan of the series but this one is great

How's it running for you? It's ridiculously unoptomized, my 660 is struggling to get 60 FPS on high/mid settings.

It doesn't play well at all on my 7870. Disappointing but I'm having fun anyway

I agree. Fun game so far.

How do you like the triple monitor set up? I currently have a 30" 2560x1600 monitor but am thinking of moving to a triple 1080p monitor set up.

30" 1600p setup is much nicer IMO. Less desk clutter, no bezels, and the 1600 vertical pixels is much nicer for reading and productivity tasks. Also, gaming on a 30" is godly if you have the GPU firepower for it.

Why would you wanna downgrade and have annoying bezels.

For campaign-based games like AC4 it's the best, but for games like BF4 I would stick to the 30" single, for obvious reasons.

I've only had the 3rd for a few days but I really like it. Gives some nice peripheral vision while gaming

If you want it for surround or eyefinity I wouldn't waste your time and money , yes it's neat but it gets old fast.

Triple-screen is fucking amazing for certain games, while a 30" would honestly be best for most. I have 3x 23" and playing AC4 on it was simply awesome. Granted my bezel's are quarter-inch so I can live with half-inch between screens, which is nice.

What about 3x 30 inch?

For what? Screen choice has a lot to do with what game you most play.

MMO's. general browsing. I prefer my 3x30 inch setup with a 1080p TV above it for watching youtube and twitch.tv...

Yeah man 3x 30"s is ideal. To me, that sounds real nice.

How the hell did you get that god forsaken game to actually cooperate and stretch out to your full res? I cannot for the life of me make it fill mine completely.

I just opened the game and it did it automatically

Where did you get those keycaps for wasd? Or did they come with the keyboard?

They came with the board, also came with caps for numbers 1-6 but I haven't put them on.

I have the same keyboard, it's awesome! However after about a year the W key has worn out, the red has peeled off quite a bit. Getting replacements has proven difficult, now I just use the 1-6 keys.

What keyboard is this if you don't mind me asking?

Are your monitors exact the same size? I notice it's not perfectly aligned, does it bother you while playing some game with Eyefinity?

They're all 23 inch monitors, but the middle one sits about a half inch taller than the others. I've just gotta find something to sit them up on but i haven't gotten around to it yet, hasn't been too distracting

You should Put them on a mount! I just got this mount and couldnt be happier

Man those lights look totally awesome. Also what Cherry MX switches do you have?

How loud are they when typing on this particular keyboard?

I feel like so many of us on gaming setups have owned that desk at one point or another. I think I got mine from Staples if I'm not mistaken.

Haha yup, got it from staples like 5 years ago. Need a new one soon cuz it's sagging pretty bad

This or the Galant from IKEA.

Haha I have that same desk got it on sale from Staples

What's it called? I'm liking the look.

That would be cool if the Backlight for the keyboard would change whenyou changed the rope lighting color

Where are your wasd keys from?

They came with the board

I have a similar set up.

Three monitors off of a single 7950, how do most games in Eyefinity run for you?

What games do you play and what's your average fps?

Looks great! Where did you put the LEDs? in a box?

Same keyboard as me, except in red (whereas mine's blue). Awesome keyboard, is it not? :D Also, amazing setup!

How do you like the K70? Which Cherry MX switches? I was looking at the K70 or the DS3.

If you don't mind me asking, what camera did you use to take these pictures?

What lense? Because on my phone right now it looks like you have some nice glass

Are LED background lights the big thing now? I like it!

Friggin awesome, mind i ask what lights you used for this?

That is awesome but don't the lights bother you when you game or you turn them off?
