These are abit dated. Just a few months.
This was back before I had the I45 in action and the IP35 PRO was the main rig.



Yeah.
Those refurbs are a necessary evil. Have to do all that you can to keep those hardware funds coming in!

I was feeling bad when this one was made.

SCAVENGER1 wrote:ezeht , yeah i keep my rigs on top of the desk all the time now. since they would be swimming in cat hair and dust!! so i been using home made filter for all of my intake fans. i buy the filter for window AC units. you can buy it at walmart real cheap. i make 2 of each filter for each fan. works out nicely.
heres a after shot

Great idea with the filters Scav. Guess I'm lucky, we have one cat who stays on the first floor most of the time and my Rig is upstairs. I just blow it out everytime I open the case every month or two.

My pic was a bit old as well, as I'm still using that Corepad you recommended too me. Thanks. Speaking of the Razor mice, I already tried the Lacheiss and Deathadder, but ended up with the Logitech G9 because it seemed to fit my hand better. However I found the the Razor Diamondback very comfortable when I gave it a few clicks at Circuit City last weekend. That may be my next mouse even though I think it's one of the cheapest in their line and I know the Lacheiss is considered the RollsRoyce. No new mice for me though for quite a while though as the cash flow is now barely a gurgle.

nice desk hj.. i kind of want to put my case on the floor.. or on some of the case wheel thingys.. but its so much dirt dust smoke and 7 cats hair around here.. it would need cleaning faster..

Thanks Erich. 7 cats? Where did you get 7 cats? That's an awful lot of pussy for one guy?

Nice avatar by the way, it looks like Yoda is not going to live long and prosper if that keeps up.

well this was my dual rig or desk set up. it will pretty much look the same.. only the mobos and some hardware has changed.. but the cases and psu's are the same and give each system its over all look..

i use my ocz 520w powerstream now for my kn8 and use the added sata and vga connectors.. so it looks even more cluttered than either my ai7 or ic7g.. but again. this is a general idea of what my set up looks like.. i will do new pictures when i can..

[ left ] ic7g- 2.8c- 1g ocz rev2 plats- ocz520w modstream- ati 9800pro xp120- audigy plat pro- logitech e5300 thx etc. [ right ] kn8- 4000+- ocz gxssli 600w- 2g ocz plats- 7800gtoc- ha ha a great mix of parts and many can mix or match across all of my systems..

and ive been using panty hose for filters.. the ac stuff is cool too tho..and they say used dryer sheets make great filters too.. i have to say maybe smoke is the largest villain. and its many types of smoke around here.. its sticky and leaves a film and is maybe worst than dirt or dust or atleast is a magnet for it.. if i could afford 1 and they was not so loud.id get a room air cleaner with a hepa filter.. but not 1 of them ion types like say the sharp.. they make the air electro static charged.. and thats not good for computer stuff..>





my kn8..>





the only close by photo i have of my ic7g is this sig photo..>

VERY NICE CHUCK!! HJ,Erik Scavy all of the shots are Sweet!!

I'd have to clear off all my Post-its I have strewn about, before I take a PC, and straighten out my Desk,

I'll work on it You guys HJ especially are VERY neat!! I love all Scavy's stuff too.

I do have some pic's on a DVD someplace, I need to sort through my DVD's to find the Correct Disk.

So stand by I'll have some up-to-Date Shots soon. However my desk is a corner Desk, it's Huge.

I'd love to get a Normal Desk again, but have to wait for my wing to heal to do that, oh and

find a Desk I like, then the $$$ thing, there's that.

Yes that Doom3 case is real, the Background in a Phot shop job.

Edit:: BTW, no cats here, way to many wires and cables in the snake pit, for a Cat, though I do like cats.

I'm into Plants more. I like plants, Ivy's etc.

ha ha hj

i have no cats and never will.. they are the guy i live with cats and he is 94% hippie so i need not say any more on that. as for pussy cat count.. well 7 could have been my average rotation back in the day.. hell it was times id sleep 3 or 4 a day or even 2 or 3 at a time.. and im just a happy medium. but i think big and have a big D philosophy or mentality

and oh ya.. i love spock..

well as you may know HJ that i have a G9 and a G7 right here next to me. and i have been a logitech user for some yrs now. and before that i was a M$ user. which was a intell explorer 2.0 which is still working today. it is connected to my back up rig. but i have checked out logitech forums and right now they are full of problems. and it is what i have had happen to me this last wk with the pointer not moving. the G9 the cord has a break in the wire so it was the problem on that 1. and now the G7 i have is brand new i got it as a RMA from logitech this June. and it is junk right out of the box.

so this Saturday i end up going to Best Buy and check out the only razor they had which is the 1 i got and the death adder. it end up being the 1 that had the most key binds. even though i to could not afford it really but i had no choice. and now i am glad i did. since i still have the ability to key bind the top button like the logitech scroll wheel tilt. since some mouse have that feature but none of them make it key bindable. but i all so like the way the scroll wheel and the snakes glow a bright red. beside Best Buy had the red Lachesis on sale but not the blue 1. weird uh same mouse but different colors, go figure.

yeah i saw that filter stuff at Walmart and figure hey that is cheap and very easy to make filters and spare. and then they are very washable and i use the Velcro that is sticky on the side and it helps to keep the filter were they are at.

thing about filters or fans is.

fans are rated for air flow [ cfm ] and noise [ dbl ] and tested in a free and open setting.. no vents guards etc.. vents and guards cause less air flow and more noise and more actual stress on the fan motor its self.. i cut out all vents where fans mount.. i wish i did not have to use filters but i have too.. but

filters and like vacuum bags or any filter on anything.. the least lil bit of fine powder dirt or dust.. the filter is about 50% restricted.. a clean filter will let more stuff through [dirt etc ] a part dirty filter traps more. but each minute it lets less and less air pass..

ive also learned that.. id rather have a lil more air intake than exhaust in and out of my case.. if my cases have less air intake well the whole case turns into a giant vacuum..and suck dirt and dust or smoke hair etc. through all cracks holes seams etc that are not sealed around it the [case ]. so its really impossible for me to completely filter my systems.. only clean rooms can do that..im a clean freak but i refuse to be others maid.. i stay pissed off and try to live with it as best i can.. but some do not even wash his hands after using the bath room or after handling pet food or wiping up pet guts and crap what ever.. i have more trouble with that.. but being disabled i cant really say much or change anything.. i just wonder when im going to get sick behind nasty hippie bull chit.. great dude and all.. just freaken filthy.. and if not for daily baths or shower to be in the outside world and work etc..well id guess you could say 100% hippie

my illness.. i may not bath as much as i should anymore.. but i stay in my room and dont go out side for months at a time.. but i keep my hands and my butt clean. and im very picky about food and door knobs or handles and even light switches and cross contamination etc.. i wash my hands so many times a day its not funny and my butt is washed least once a day after each throne visit.. im ill.. im not lazy or a slob or a freaken animal or cave man or hippie.. and never will be..
