Those slots open and close as it needs more air or not,I guess.. Now that is COOL. Thanks for sharing! Assuming that the computer is very loud to start with, so that any dust will be removed with a good 5 seconds of fan high power? is that the case?

I paired it with a Corsair mechanical keyboard, Steeleseries headset and I run a dual monitor setup. Lovely headphones! I have a pair of turtle beach now, i really like them.

Alazarin Mondrian Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) OK, I'll bite.... here's the old home rig. It's and old Gateway 2000 case with it's Pentium II sticker still on the case. Inside it's an i7 4790, 12GB RAM and an Nvidia GTX 660. I use a 120GB SSD for my system and a 2TB HDD for data. Works for me O/S is Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. That's Cubase Pro 9 on the main monitor and SL on the secondary monitor.

Bree Giffen Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Wooh. Fancy setup Alazarin. How do you get out of the house? The door seems blocked. I like all the keyboards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhonda Huntress Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 My office set up. The Mr Coffee burr grinder is OK for pour over but it does not grind fine enough consistently enough for home where I can do espresso. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nalytha Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) This is an electric sit/stand desk. The top is a kitchen counter top from Ikea. The monitors are 27 inch curved. This photo is from my last apartment. Forgive the showing cords =/ I still need to remount my monitors in this new place.

Nalytha Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Eh, I wasn't going to show this photo because it's quite a downgrade from the last apartment's setup. You can see what a difference mounting the monitors makes though. We bought this grey rug for the bedroom but it was too small, so we threw it in my office. Thanks to this thread though, I'm going to work on updating my setup. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tari Landar Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 When I can figure out how to play Sl on a gameboy I'll post a picture of my setup...My current one is literally covered with textbooks, curriculum supply lists, and a hodge podge of other junk(and probably cat hair, cuz...3 cats) I do have a picture of one of my cats as a kitten on an old computer, among other computers, that my kids have piece parted out to use with their curriculum, does that count? (silly people, of course it counts, I'm sharing anyway ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bree Giffen Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I totally want a sit/stand desk. My old workplace had them and they are so nice to use. I have a mounting arm for my monitor and it frees up all my desk space. I also want a little kitten to put on top of my computer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMe Jewell Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 We are redoing the office this fall / winter and have already decided that we will have sit/stand desks. We are having trouble deciding on the exact model though. My husband and I both need workstations as we both have to be able to work at the same time via the wired connections. Also, trying to find the best functionality that fits well in the room at a reasonable cost is an interesting feat in itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would recommend a Mac, just because I'm absolutely in love with them I made the switch in 2009, and haven't looked back since. I used to have so many computer issues when I used to run a Windows machines. Have you been to your local Ikea? I picked up my desk and chair from there and I love it.

No way are we switching to MAC computers. We are too entwined in our Windows ones and I have no desire to learn a new OS. Not to mention that my primary computer got hosed yesterday and so we just bought me a new computer. We haven't checked IKEA for the desks yet - have so far only been browsing styles and companies online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is really dry here in Colorado, USA, and I do not dust the office or computer near as much as I should. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
