Shit tier / I dont want to keep updating the picture edition
>>52535490
Ohohooo, I know *this* fella smokes the dank
i updated.
>>52535562
What kinda stick do you have and which shmups are your favorite?
>>52535543
I don't smoke weed.
There's another monitor mounted on the wall above the row of screens. I'm forced to sell most of it (everything except the computer and a monitor) soon to take the gf to Moscow and pay student loans. I have a MemeBook Pro that I use for video editing, which is my job and college major.
I need to take a new picture
a relative of mine got a new TV for christmas and gave me the old one, so now I have another screen on my desk
>>52535595
Ok buddy
>>52535632
are you seriously letting your gf cost you this much $$$?
c u c k e d
>>52535638
I really dig the wood panelling
>>52535685
I live in dad's basement so I can spend my money on monitors instead of rent
czech
>>52535710
anon, why do you live with a guy with no head?
>>52535710
jesus christ, that's horrifying. I can't believe you thought that plaid shirt wasn't a mistake.
>>52535728
Because Anderson is an aggressive retard
>>52535672
We're moving in together back home after the trip and I'm going to propose. Her parents know, so they're paying a majority of the trip. I need cash though. We've been dating for 5 years and I've had that computer in its entirety for longer
swag
>>52535588
it's a madcats with a seimitsu LS-32 and sanwa buttons. had a friend do some custom artwork.
i like everything from cave to touhou to gradius. some of my favorites are zanac x zanac, th08, harmful park, jigoku kisetsukan and futari.
>>52535708
Hey, it's good to prioritize
>>52535860
Ooh right on, I love harmful park and what little touhou and cave games I've played. Just got a qanba q1 and have been trying to get better at shmups in general. Was planning to try th08 tonight in fact
Rearranged my layout, way more comfortable now, going be getting an even smaller case within this month, probably a jonsbo v4
>>52535490
Anyone live with a girlfriend whom also has a battlestation?
I'm debating whether to buy her a PC or ps4.
>>52535490
still wip put up some movie posters I had up

In the market for a new desk, what's a good brand/place to buy?
>>52535984
build it
>>52535984
Don't ask
>>52535942
Me, I bought my elbow desk for $10 on trademe, it sucks but it gets the job done.
DeskTOPs however, I can help you with
>>52535984
Mine's an Ikea. when I got it it was a modular system, so you could plug together differently shaped bits to make a desk in the configuration you want it. they shuffled product lines since then, idk if you can still do that
>>52536007
Currently in a apartment and not equipped to tackle medium - large scale hardware projects, though I would love to.
>>52535956
Jesus Christ that makes me shudder
I hope you enjoy your life, but not anywhere where I can see you doing it
>>52536030
Just focus on the dimensions that you're comfortable with, is it the right height for you to be comfortable, is it deep enough that you can have all your peripherals in front of you and not feel cramped and is it wide enough for your monitors and pc etc.
Everything else is jerking off, in my opinion.
>>52535937
>qanba q1
you might find it a bit loose for shmups. i started with a sanwa JLF and it had too much throw for my liking. good for fighting games though. i need another stick as a dedicated fight stick.
>>52536123
I was thinking of putting some sanwa parts in, but I really have to put some more time in on it before I can justify that. I can't even 1cc PCB
>>52535490
ayoo its jerry.
>>52535562
pretty comfy m8
>>52535638
dank station man
>>52535837

>>52535942

>>52535956
Love the color of your desk m8
I got a stool so I dont sit like a bitch.
Desk question guy here.
>>52535984
Figured I should post since people have been nice enough to reply. Currently use a 6 foot plastic lunch table, hence the need for a real desk.
Inb4 shitty cell phone camera.
Old station

>>52537430
idk what you are going on about man.

that alright with you?
now go be butthurt elsewhere
>>52535984
Don't buy Ikea
You can get some pretty nice stuff at thrift/used furniture stores
>>52537410
Looking for comfy picture and comfy bamboo plant. Planing on storing screen and clearing off a lot of my desk.
>>52537430
Nah I told him he has a cute keyboard. Hes all good now.
Gotta post my old b8 picture.
>>52535490
Just from the items in the picture I can assume that you account for 90% of /g/ traffic.
>>52537478

>>52536406
>what case m8
Cooler Master Elite 130
It's a bit long for my liking
Dimensions are 207mm H x 400mm D x 240mm w
Looking to get the depth to about 280mm or less
You can pick up this case for 88 NZD or you can pick up its smaller little sister the elite 110 (pic related) which is about 290mm deep with similar other dimensions for about 75 NZD
They're good, small ITX Cases on the cheap side but there are way cooler ones out there that are smaller if you put in the money
>>52537489
I was last heavily on /g/ a few weeks ago while in Florida.
I actually don't get on /g/ heavily and mainly just go on /x/ and /gif/
I cant cable manage worth a shit
Homework station.
This 4TB drive is so liberating
>>52537928
your station has come a long way m8
i recall it being quite terrible a while back
>>52537976
Thanks, It's still very much a WIP but I'm inching along to a better desk every day.
I'd like to think I've come a long way since...this
>>52537491

Probably going to look like this till I start adding shit again.
>>52536406
Legs are too fat you a man
>>52535490
Holy shit those CRT's
>>52535837
Cute.. That's how I want mine
Plz be kind senpai desu
>>52538271
not bad
but that shitty razer headset aint cool
>>52538106
best bst <3
>>52538269
Idk my legs are pretty weak sauce.
>>52538271
that headset really throws it off.
I just made the most ghetto thing ever and I thought I should share
Looks pretty clean, right?
Picture 1/2
>>52538636
Jammed all my cables in a cardboard box, tied them up and electrical taped the lid
Now I take out one usb cable and going portable is ez
>>52538636
>Taping over camera.
P A R A N O I D F A G G O T
>>52538673
Yeah I abandoned Windows and I could finally take it off but then I found myself needing Skype, so the webcam tape goes back on for now
>>52538673
>he has never programmed or hacked before.
>>52538636
>>52538670
Does that include the charger? You could have used a smaller box lol :p also this >>52538673
>>52537238
your chair smells like ass
>>52538720
Nah it's only usb cables
The large box was so i could rest it against the top of my desk since I couldn't find an easy solution to attaching it lol
Also, why is everyone against webcam tape?
Do you know how easy it is to get malware on Windows? Do you realise even a tiny misclick inside Skype can broadcast anything you're doing to people?
I ordered a dual monitor arm, should get here today. Now I just need to get one of those korean 1440p monitors too.
>>52535562
T E X A S
>>52535837
Pretty. case is way too big though
>>52538093
Looks better like that, really
>>52538106
Neat
>>52538777
a big case for my big dik
>>52538758
idk what im looking at. Well im not a dumb fuck on skype and if they want to watch me masturbate sure. There is no use on them going on your webcam besides social embarrassment lol.
>>52538777
Yah I like it better too. Don't use the second one besides for leaving shows running or music.
>>52538786
Overcompensation more like. That's why I have such a tiny case.
>>52538829
nah bro
you aint even seen my dick
its like the size of a bus
>>52538861
Yes I have you trap slut
>>52538871

Im okay, what about you?
>>52539833

>>52539909
cute station like the speakers.
>>52539833
thast pretty awesome
>>52539856
Creative t30, they're okay.
Once I switch to a dual monitor setup I might get rid of them though. Almost exclusively use my headphones anyway.

Yes, that's a noctua fan. It's hooked up to a 12v adapter which used to be a charger for something. Best soldering station ventilation ever.

My 7-9 year old chair finally broke, using a shitty ikea markus chair right now.
>>52541870
Get an Aeron. :)
Monitor arm just arrived :DD Shitty old flea market monitor on there currently, need to wait until I get paid to order a Korean monitor.
Now my cable management hole in my table is just there and looking ugly though, might try to find one of those USB hub things that fit in holes.
>>52541881
I will get a chair around that price range eventually, it's what I've set my mind on for a long time. But rather than a design chair it's gonna be a 24hour chair made for truckers/security monitoring people.
Hence I didn't "waste" money on something in between when my previous one broke.
Am I late to the party?
I already regret using USPS to deliver my new keycaps

What do you use for backlighting? I want to get some LED's to use but don't know which kit to get.
>>52541570
keyboard?(not the musical)
>>52543853
usually you can get a kit for £10 from ebay.
>>52543891
Looks like a razer deathstalker to me.
>>52541870
What keyboard is that?
>>52543906
Looks like a quickfire rapid-i to me
>>52543906
>>52543933
CM rapid-i with browns.
>>52543891
yes is razer deathstalker starwars themed
>>52543967
>>52543903
thnx i now see how hideous it is
>>52535665

>>52543976
its not that bad
but the software for the screen is dead
razer dropped the support and i feel scammed

keep an eye out on your local craigslist/resale site. i got a 5'x3' metal workshop table for $15. sturdy as fuck and more than enough space.
Hey guys.
>>52545567
looking clean.
>>52545567
I can tell your chair is new. It's gonna fuck up your floor in time.
>>52545567
well shit break looking good.
>>52545567
Sexy af but why such a crappy resolution?
>>52545592
Thanks.
>>52545608
I need to put the rubber casters on it.
>>52545627
Thanks. Although I moved it in the room. Waiting for my new PC to be done for the next picture.
>>52545640
I took it from my OCN album. Computer died, so I lost the picture.
>>52545653
nice man going to be pretty dope. New case too or still going to be inwin?
>>52545677
Yeah, new case! I'm going with the NCase M1. I've also got an ITX X99 board, and waiting for Broadwell-E. Gonna be a nice build. Not as pretty as the In-Win internally, but definitely faster.
>>52545725
Thats a pretty dope case man. I cant wait to get a little itx system built.
>>52545772
My last three PC's have all been ITX. Sometimes I get the urge to do mATX, but I still would be wasting space.
Before deciding on this build, I almost did X99 mATX in the Phanteks Evolv mATX case. The biggest reason would have been the rice-ability of LED kits. So I just went with the based NCase.
Where do you guys get your posters and poster frames from? I was thinking of decorating my place a bit but I have no idea where to go to get some decent framed posters.
>>52545837
im pretty sure the inwin 901 is a mATX not mini ITX
>>52541870
Always liked this one, especially the John Luke watching over you while you're sleeping. Saved to inspiration folder.
>>52542441
Maybe shoop the jizzstains away? I mean the pad pretty much appears as a solid color.
Neat anyway, but why the raised blacks?
>>52545567
Inspired me to get that lamp (only smaller version) and the Alex cabinet. Looking neat as always.
Myself I'm gonna order a keyboard drawer, see if it fits with my new table to get the top surface really neat. Also maybe smaller, possibly /mkg/ and new LED strip since I left the old one on the old glass table and I like muh indirect LEDs. If there are any power sockets left after that, I might even put some of those back of the TV LED strips on my screens.
>>52545837
i like matx but for what I need I could just use an itx.
>>52545845
I just find them randomly around. Big stores have mass prints usually.
>>52545881
I had the 901. It's ITX. The 904 is regular ATX, and there is a 909, with E-ATX and additional cooling support.
>>52545899
They're quite nice. I'd recommend the ALEX unit.
>>52545900
What case and components are you going to use?
>>52545899
>shoop the jizzstains away
That's too much effort for a bst photo
>why the raised blacks
I can't remember which part exactly but one part was so dark there was basically no detail
My next photo though I'm doing away with HDR and am just going to use my strobe lights instead
>>52545906
oh shit my bad, love that case though, heard it gets really hot however
>>52545963
not to sure yet havent looked around at the current market.
>>52545906
Looks really good but the slight angle of the gpu is triggering my fake OCD real good.
>>52545900
i thought of going ITX just because i'll only use one GPU, but might go when kaby lake launches to get a cheap Z170 board as i doubt i'd be able to sell my current mobo and case.
and itx cases are just cute as shit.
![P_20160121_132111[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/KNJGp8A.jpg "P_20160121_132111[1].jpg")
This is mine. Nothing special but its comfy.
I have a great view too.
1/2
>>52546177
comfy if not a little cramped looking.
>>52546136
I built that platform. Would rather have it up, than down.
>>52546128
Let me know if you'd like assistance.
>>52546077
It actually isn't hot either. When people use case-venting GPU's or AIO's it might. But my card exhausted air out the rear, as did the PSU. I had a 120mm intake pushing air onto drives and the case, while half of it went straight into the GPU. And the rear 92mm exhaust worked well also. Temps were as follows:
>CPU idle/load: ~28°C-40°C
>GPU idle/load: ~32°C-55°C
>Drives never exceeded 25°C
>Board operated around 23-28°C
>>52535490
I think you posted that before, and followed it up with Speccy showing the CRT to be running at 1280x1024 60Hz... Does that hurt your eyes?
Why does no one have Linux in these threads?
>>52546379
because battle stations are mostly high end gaming machines, so, since gayms are better on windjews.
Tbh It's just more comfy to ssh into a box when I need a linux environement.
>>52546379
If I could natively run Lightroom and Photoshop on Linux, I'd gladly use it as a primary OS.

Fair enough.

>>52546827
I've never liked the see through thing.
Rubber casters are okay, and I'm not 12,000 pounds of N33T, so, they should do well. They did in my previous station.

i see the dead memorbilia so i just have to post to, hold up
Final days of the old setup, case for the new one already in place. Will take pic with non shit camera when I'm done after the weekend.

>>52546887
do these lights really help with eye strains?
>>52547743
id say so yea
>>52547743
mine help, just as i've got the monitor and lights set to the same temperature. just as blue tints gives me headaches.
>>52536406
Aren't the Pavillion 22xi and the k400r just beautiful?
>>52547311
Nice things, ugly setup
>>52546865
Oh rubber casters instead of hard plastic.
Looks like you got it covered then I'll remember that for when I move into my hardwood floor condo <3

Still made me lol tho.
serious question for you guys with wallmounts
how hard is it to actually set up? assume I'm a fag that has never done anything like that ever
>>52549454
I don't have a wallmount personally, but you need a studfinder. If you mount it just to sheetrock you'll tear a whole in your wall.
installing a tv/monitor to the actual mount is easy as fuck, you just screw it in.
>>52546284

>taping over the camera even though it along with a microphone are built into the laptop
I agree he's paranoid, nothing outside of having a computer with no webcam or microphone will be safe. Taping over a built-in webcam/microphone that's always connected to wifi won't do shit.
Evening lads.
Long time no see.

nice work on the desk but looks a little unfinished, with some work it could be real sexy
overall i would give 8/10
thank
I don't have anything different really. I still need to fix the height, and I want to get a hook or three for my headphones. I would get a better angle, but my room is tiny and this is all I could really manage. I will try again some time.

Waiting to get any decent furniture until I buy a house. I have a bunch of dark walnut butcher block that came from a local department store's counter tops. Going to make a really nice desk and night stands out of it.

Thanks bruh.
Question, folks. I'm moving in a month or so. What's a damn good right-hand corner L-desk out there for $500 or so? I mean a legit desk that'll stand up to a fucking house collapsing on it.
I can build one myself, but I don't actually want to if I don't have to.
>>52554291
Ikea's tabletops and legs are pretty solid and cheap. I mean the real wood shit. Otherwise visit your local office furniture store.
>>52554315
I've looked at Ikea several times, but I haven't actually laid hands on them. Are they really as solid as people say?
>>52554328
Their actual wood tabletops are good, yeah. Especially the stuff from their professional lines.
>>52554345
Huh. I'll give them another look, thanks bro
>>52554372
NP, I think this is the exact desk I've had at work for like...3 years.
