Post a pic of your game space
Daaaaamn, very nice.
Here's an awful iPhone picture. Blurry enough so that you can't see how dusty my desk is. Feels good man.
I'll post a proper picture once, (or if >.>), I find my camera charger cable.

here is mine image taken via my phone.
left screen is a 24" and right is a 20"
3 keyboards and mice, 3 & 4th computer are either attached via KVM or on a different connector on the right screen (Right computer is also running VMware with Linux running a vent server).

Nothing saids its your spot like an ourob. Portal dropped on the ground.
Not doing anything terribly elaborate.
Have my main system on the hanging shelf in the open rack. Above it is my net server. Above that are my 24-port switch, and my router. Up top of the rack is my AP.
The netserver and my DNS machine are sharing a KVM.
And since I'm a computer geek, I have a few corpses hanging around my apartment too.
BUT I'LL PUT THEM TO USE! SOME DAY!

Damn all you dual-screen people
That's next on my upgrade list, but I won't be getting it for some time as I bought a new gfx card, power supply and more ram recently.

@Hyper is that a 1U server in the rack, I had a full enclosed rack a few years back (it didnt move with me). I want quite machines so 1/2U would be out.

Haha, pretty much. I already often surf the net while playing (for pron of course). Alt tabbing makes me sad.
I also often watch tv or movies while farming, it'd be great to not have to shrink my CoV window to 1/3-1/4 of my screen and have proper fullscreen action for both the player and the game.
Mmmmm. Fullscreen HD Spartacus Blood and Sand on one screen, idly smashing Nemesis on the other. Do want.
Anyone have a spare functioning 22"ish LCD kicking around they don't mind mailing to Switzerland? :3

if I wasnt using a cheap IKEA table for a desk and I had 4shes desk. I am sure I would have more (I have a 2nd desk setup for my daughter to use).

Also, this is why I play with headsets. Playing with speakers, the game can be kinda loud and I try not to bug my neighbors.

That and so I can play when I'm "working" from home (my company uses IM for internal communication).
While I don't have a picture, I game on a 32" so shrinking the screen in half isn't bad at all. Or if I'm in the mood I'll move out and plug into my 60" in the living room (usually for hami raids or other big events) And let me say this: CoH on 60 Inches is completely awesome!

seems the G15 first gen is still pretty popular ( or are those G11?? Cna't see if there is a screen or not..) any of you using the COHLCD for the display? I find it pretty useful.
I haven't tried my pc on my 42" Tv but I wonder how it would be like... might have to try this tonight lol
Mine is a G11, the one without the LCD. Looks like Hatch has the G11 too, Slacker has the one with the LCD though.
I had looked into getting one with the LCD but none of the stuff I could get on the LCD seemed to justify the added expense. It was all really neat party trick stuff, but none of it seemed like it'd be really awesome.
Given how I don't use my macro keys, (like, at all), this was probably a wise decision
One of my friends swears by his though.
I bet UM looks fantastic on a 40" or 60" tv I should actually try it out, the living room tv is 41" iirc.
Damn, this bears investigation.
The Melee Teaming Guide for Melee Mans
Well you know.. boys and their "big" toys...
As for the G15.. I bought mine before the G11 existed so I didn't have a choice. I never really used the macro keys (looking back it was probably a waste) but I love the different "apps" that can be used with the LCD. I can see the xp to level, chat logs, influence... etc on my toons and had that before in game numbers were available.
I'll try to take a shot at my desk (kinda suck compared to all of yours) and i'm definately plugging the TV tonight to see how it looks...

Neat idea. I am always curious about other's set up for gaming. Excuse the clutter
and yes another G15 user..I won mine at a Team Mayhem LAN party..so the price was right
Here's my setup, I play on a 28" monitor and I use a G15 keyboard, but the LCD stopped working a while ago. Now only if I had a bigger desk I would use the extra monitor I have sitting around.

Ahaha, daaaamn your pc looks badass.
Also wow, surprised at how many people have these Logitech G11/15 keyboards.
Edit: get a proper mouse though
The Melee Teaming Guide for Melee Mans
My parents have that desk lol
And that looks a lot like an Antec 900 II case.... which I was tempted to get for my next build. How do you like it? is it easy to put in and remove components? I've only heard good thing from Antec but never knew someone who had one.
Also, those keyboard really are popular lol
ps, RoughneX you're a Rays fan, no way, I hope you live here in the Bay area because a non-Floridian Rays fan is, well, you know where I'm going with this. =()

empty glasses
