  1. I always think cases with neon are fairly kiddy in my opinion, more of a Lian Li fan myself, or some corsair vengeance casing where I strip the christmas lights out. (Corsair vengeance C70 military green edition for the army fans here Very good cable management and airflow. Personally I detest the Antec cases. They are loud as fuck, cable management is something they never heard of and hardly any options to attach a water cooling radiator. The only thing they are good at is being cheap + christmas lights...Yep, if you are happy with that.

    Nice Mutagen, and you can handle all of that on just 1 monitor?

    There are some decent tablets for €100-160 already with android ICS if you search one yourself Xcelsior, though I would buy the Nexus 7 if I lived in America (still waiting for it to come to Europe :) ). My old Tegra 2 tablet goes to my little brother then.

    Lol at that keyboard :P Retro ftw BTW Xcelsior, you now you can buy that mesh in a hardware store for like €1 a meter? Just so you can make it look neat and finished :P Btw, if you look for a Bamboo, the Wacom Bamboo Pen and touch is not that expensive (€60) and is quite nice :) Just not that big.

    Glass desks ftw, glass coca cola bottles ftw as well. Where do you find them? I only see plastic ones nowadays, btw still not as ghetto as XCelsior's :P And really? I have just paid €30 for it when it was new. (Or not even 30, more like 27), the entire set with mouse was €60 I believe.

    True that :P You actually have the exact same keyboard as I had before! the Logitech cordless wave. Still have it working in it's original box, only replaced it for my roccat arvo because this arvo has some nice macro keys under the space bar, (and a wire, which does have some notable quicker input from my perspective). So, if anyone wants that keyboard for a nice low price, dunno, 10+shipping maybe?, he can have it. (I live in the netherlands btw, so that you know shipping is only affordable if you live in Europe xD) What do you actually use as a standard to put that car seat on?

    1. I used to do a lot of 2D graphical shizzle, (not photoshop, the GIMP). I used 2 monitors once, in the old CRT days, and it was just nice to have something next to where you were working. 2. With the coming of ATI Eyefinity, it was quite awkward to look right on the bezel, so I got 3 monitors instead. 3. While working, even just writing a paper, I can have a few pages of information next to my work document. 4. Why 3 individual screens instead of a big TV? For 600 euro's I could have gotten a 37" inch, with the resolution of 1920x1080. You tell me what you prefer, 3x24" with a total resolution of 5760x1080 or just 1920x1080 once? 5. The bezels actually are nicer to organise your workspace. Of course it's always possible to work with small windowed apps, but it just nicely *snap*, *snap* *snap* instead of manually resizing everything. (There are some software workarounds like Hydragrid, though I prefer the physical borders). PS. also just did a year of architecture. Lot of photoshop and AutoCadding, also an additional reason to have multiple monitors. All by all, the main reason is just the big resolution of 5760x1080, instead of a lousy single 1920x1080. Not just for professional reasons, but everything combined. @Govnogaming: You mean my desk or my desktop as in wallpaper? :P Desk: €200 Ikea, GALANT. 160cm frame, white glass plate and T-legs Lights you see under the desk: Sharkoon 2in1 CCFL kit white (30cm): €8 per 2 bars. I used 5 bars to fill up my desk in width. Camera: Sony DSC-HX9V: €250 (but I bet you have better price/performance camera's for around €150. Just bought this more expensive camera for professional reasons (architecture)) Wallpaper (open in new tab or view image for the full resolution): Also disclaimer for some people; my total resolution is 5760x1080, some people might use 1200p monitors. Add black bars to your preference or use ultramon as a manager and "center" the image as a property. (Though the AMD promotional one is 1200p) But I bet the guys here like a more DayZ-styled wallpaper. And lol XCeslior :P love the shabby-looking solution of just laying plank on an open cabinet; "sooooo, fixed"

    Looking at getting a new PC help.

    Really, ApplejackDaniels already gave you a hint on where to start looking. Maybe you try to listen to the comments in your own goddamn topic? Just for fucks sake; here's the link again he gave you: http://www.dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/37402-the-ultimate-guide-of-buying-a-decent-computer/ Btw, building your own PC is like having sex. The first time is always the best, after that, it just becomes a routine job. Any questions regarding general stuff, please post them there (as I can put them easely in the FAQ), if you seek confirmation in the parts you have chosen, you might want to do that in your own topic here.

    Since all the forums have a topic like these, it can't be missed here. Certainly here with a community, not only for "gamers", but from a wide range of age and professions, I bet some people have more exotic needs than others. Show off your crazy USB missile launcher or other peripherals laying around and where you waste multiple hours a day of your life! As a starter; my desk. The desk itself is glass, from the Ikea GALANT series.

    The ultimate guide of buying a decent computer.

    If there is one thing to learn from this guide, it's that you need to build your own, and this guide explicitly explains everything about it. But nevermind, 1 post and that shabby english? Probably a troll

    Worst 30$ spent.

    I don't feel that way. Arma is DayZ, and nothing else. If I bought arma for arma I would seriously want a refund and turn my CD key back in.

    Why did I spend $30 for this?

    So much win :P

    The ultimate guide of buying a decent computer.

    I always use Asus motherboards myself, their onboard is really decent enough. With my headset on I can't notice a difference between onboard and someone else's system with an Creative X-Fi, though there is a difference when hooking it up on an amplifier. (Asus do make seperate soundcards as well), though if you're still looking for one, you first have to determine what you want; 3.5mm jacks or USB. (Mostly determined by the type of headset you've got). You've got 3 big brands actually: Terratec, Asus and Creative, with their full names with series of soundcards are: Terratec Aureon (good and low-priced) Asus Xonar (quite expensive, no experiences with it) Creative Soundblaster (Decent, if you're fan, go for it.)
