Post Your Battlestations! (Post your desktop)

My Battlestation.

Usually, the Monitor on the far right is also plugged into my desktop, which is hidden away below my desk. However, when I took this picture, I had just been playing my XBox.

I've tidied up since then!

 

[broadbandaddict]

Niiccee, Although I find your lack of speakers disturbing


ALSO: I'd like to point out, that the ONLY thing left in my rig from that previous battlestation picture is the Mx518 mouse... I hope this thread lasts a few days, new speakers coming soon and I could do with a reason to tidy up and maybe add a couple of screens... would require a lot of drilling into to walls though, as I have the worlds smallest desk -_-

I've got speakers, it's a soundbar on the main 30" monitor. Otherwise I just use my wireless G110 headset. I also just got a new mouse. Corsair M60, great upgrade from my old G5.

Oh THAT kind of desktop. I though you meant your desktop icons or how cool your Rainmeter is, etc.

EDIT like this:

Spoiler: Desktop

You knew eexxaacctttllyy what he meant, you just want to show off your customised gui... Pretty damn sweet though, must be heart breaking when you need to format.

Yeahh....

Not anymore actually -- you can create a file with all the info about the skin and you can restore it perfectly to what it was before.

EDIT: and look at those SWEET RSS feeds!

30" monitor... surely you mean 20"?

And yeh, those dell soundbars are surprisingly good, but I've recently decided to turn into and audiophile, will let you know if the sound card and bookshelf speakers were worth it sometime next week

Nope. 30" Dell U3011. The monitor to the side is a 24" Dell U2410.

My desk is not always that messy though.

Jesus, I had a long hard look at it... mind you, that keyboards prolly bigger than mine, plus if that' a 24" on the side.

I ordered one of those U3011s for the CAD department at work last year, it was stonkingly massive.

Yeah they are pretty giant, but games look so good on them. Totally the best PC related purchase I've made. In my opinion the monitor is the most important part of a PC, you spend like 99% of your interaction with the computer looking at it. The only downside is price.

 

[MMSouthpawVIII]

Sure, why not?

Spoiler

I need to get a mouse pad

EDIT like this:

Spoiler: Desktop

That looks cool, how did you go about doing it?

 

[Total LOLige]

Actually this screen is pretty hi-res, I just have it set low because everything looks tiny when its set higher, can't be bothered adjusting all settings and stuff

Oh my...

I know it's pretty bad, really should put it higher.

In the Control Panel you can set different zoom settings for items on the screen. I have my resolution on 1920x1080 with 150% zoom because I can't stand the small items.

Rainmeter.

Glorious program.

I'm quite the opposite really. Well except for my actual desktop:

Spoiler

The taskbar at the bottom I always put on the smallest size.

 

[ArchBlade]

As of right now.

Spoiler

I really should dust it properly... And get a new mouse pad, but ya know.

Soo tempting...

SUCH a nice desk...

 

[Johnny Impact]

Spoiler: I keep a very minimal desktop

Too lazy to take out my camera right now, but I've got two 1920x1080 Dells, main in front, secondary to the left, and one of those expensive gaming mice with a Starry Night mousepad. Software boxes line the top of the workstation, and a five-inch-thick manual for Bryce sits waiting to one side.

....And there's a horrendous mess.
