hmm, I'm still on that rig i posted 2 years ago. I'm not the type how has to throw away everything being older than last year (at least in terms of technical stuff Wink ) I'm not that much of a hardcore gaming type so I don't need to either.

Just got myself a new "light" notebook (13.3", Toshiba) some weeks ago for daily uni and work stuff.

From that point I think your setup all I would need Cheesy

Just gimme the screen, mkay!

I have old 15 crt if u want  laughing7

I'm not going to change this setup for some time too. I'm not a hardcore gamer - i only have lfs here  and some football managers. But i try some new demos from time to time and i don't see any bad fps so far with them on good graphic settings so i guess  this pc is goog enough.

laughing7 yeah true and my friends here said I'm crazy
but it was quickly filled up as I moved all my Pictures, Music Videos, Movie DVDs, Music CDs etc. onto these Harddisks.
Now I don't have to stand up from the couch when I want to watch something or listen to some music and never have to change disks again. I can just click on it and there it is.  mrgreen
Was my dream for many years to have such a media station and took a lot of testing to find the right stuff.
I use mediaportal for everything now (http://www.team-mediaportal.com/)
Which also wakes the PC TV server up when I programmed a TV recording and sends it back to sleep etc.

Anyway atm I'm thinking of either 2 more HDDs or to change them for some WD 1,5 TB green power. lol

BTW
the only problem I got sometimes with my monitor is
when I click on the power button to switch it off and click not long or not strong enough
then it sometimes switches the source from digital to analog instead of switching the power off.
But else it's a great piece of technic

Me neither.
As I sometimes had some driver problems with the HD onboard stuff I switched to it.
Was really cheap here and works ok for me.

Hmm 3 pc's (oh wait do i see 4? ) - it's like having 4 engines in a car. One for each wheel.. I don't get that . I'm minimalistic. One pc for all uses. But if you can afford to have it all sure. Still i don't get it tongue

Oh and a laptop for travelling.
