Here is my new setup.

Picked up the monitor Friday, gamed with it all night and day til Saturday arfternoon while at a mates house. Went shopping and bought a "ceiling mount" (ceiling mount schmeiling mount, looks like a desk mount to me :P ) for the LCD at a HIFI store. Got home and massacred my Ikea desk and voila:

AGGS... what are your opinions on that keyboard?

I was looking at getting the same one, partly for the backlit keys, partly for the display on it.

Is the display useful in games?

AGGS · Post by **AGGS** » 23 Apr 2006, 17:07

If it was just the G15 with the logitech apps then i would say then it is just average.

But due to the fact that there is such a large support community which talks here http://www.g15forums.com/forum/, it is EXCELLENT!

Backlighting works a treat and there are a heap of 3rd party apps, including one which displays all kinds of cool stuff like kills, score etc in BF2.

There are not many games that naturally support the G15's display, and the ones that do are crap, but there are a lot of other useful goodies out there for the screen.

Havent really had much to do with the programmable key side of things yet as i have mainly been playing FPS.

Very cool setup. I'm impressed your use of small space and how good you made it look :D

EDIT:

Floppy power on the sound card will go, as will the fan cable (little red one) and the power etc lines will be sleeved :)

6mm hose? thats a little small, all my stuff is 12mm (1/2" ID :D :D). I saw the A19, i wanted one but no chance of getting one in the UK this side of Christmas :) i think my solution is about the best... the amount of airflow over them with the stock cooler is nothing and i can always install a fan blowing directly at the card, plenty of free PCI bays as you can see :)

Here's mine.....

That's the Dell 2405 on the left; a 19" LCD in the middle; And a 27" HDTV on the right.

Look 'kinda' neat, yes?

Well, here's a wide shot:

LOL...so now you know! It's all on a 10' desk, and yes, that's a 32 tube commercial tanning bed on the far left and a (twice) restored '65 VW convertible bug on the right.

The rest are model R/C airplane buiding stuff and you cannot see the five (5) airplanes behind the tanning bed with 80" wing spands.

And you guys thought you had a messy desk! :D

Damn. that is some messy desk you have mate :?
I really like the bug though. :D
That is some seriously player car.
Forget about the escalades and all that kind of stupid bulldozers.
It's all gonna be about oldschool Bugs next year. 8)

Again, the first law of physics is to not waste energy...

Thank you, Mr.evildoer!

Restored her twice. The first time she was a rust-bucket and the second time my wife wrapped her around a utility pole and totalled her.

I know every inch of her and....

....They don't make them like this anymore... :D
