I get the feeling that I'm not as hard core as I would believe myself to be.

Others probably have me beat.

Windows 7 is the shit. I spent a lot of time and configured so well, using help of 3rd party utilities. Every time I use my desktop Win7 machine, it feels like I'm getting my balls licked.

1) Multiple monitors
2) Actual Windows Manager
3) Object Desktop
4) Nova Backup
5) Firefox with ~20-30 add-ons that increases usability of FF by 500%.
6) Lastpass Premium with Yubikey 2factor auth.
7) Google Authenticator
8) RAID 0 with Sandisk SSD (~Samsung 830) for main with ~450GB usable space.
9) RAID 10 with 4 2TB Hitachis.
10) More storage that's not raided. I filled up my chassis. I have 2 SSD and 6 hard drive in there. External storage hooked up to eSATA as well.
10) 3D monitor with latest Nvidia glasses.
11) GTX 670 Copper CU2, OCed to be faster than a stock 680.
12) Quad core Intel 950 OC to 4.2GHz. Could get more GHz given my CPU cooler but I don't need the extra .1-.2 GHz.

I definitely need to update my comp at some point in the future, but that would be at least a year away as I don't feel anything is lacking at this point.

Dood, you pray to Jesus. It doesn't get any more hardcore than that.

But I'd have to say that I probably have you beat: I turn on my Mac and just, you know, use it. Not with all that shit you got.

This.

Boasting about windows "power user" skills is like bragging about special Olympics medals. But OMGZ let us see your l33t modded & themed explorer.exe

Dude, I got all that PLUS Monster cables hooking it all together, a Monster power conditioner, and surge protector.

Figure all that together and mine is about 1000% better. :colbert:

Man, your PC would totally crucify mine. It's like the Romans compared to my Jewish Carpenter. You'd totally leave me hanging in performance tests.
