I don't know if I can take a pic of my setup. Basically...

My PC desk has 2 1920x1200 monitors (27" & 24") with a 32" TV sitting to the right of that. It sit's in the computer room but it is next to my bedroom wall which I then proceeded to drill holes into. I then feed 7-8 cables through the wall which achieves a few things:

1 - My XBox & PS3 connect to a receiver which I feed to my monitors. Basically I can game from my PC chair on my monitors since the controllers are wireless. The sound can be played through my PC speakers or my surround sound speakers in the receiver.

2 - I get my antenna from my TV in my room hooked into the TV in the computer room.

3 - Connected to the receiver is my 100" 1080p projector setup.

Ultimately everything is routed through my receiver. However my 2 main PC monitors are hooked directly to the video card. A 3rd output from the PC heads to the receiver which I use optionally.

This grants me the ability to play on any of the following with sound in either room:

27" Monitor
24" Monitor
32" LCD TV
55" LCD TV (In bedroom)
100" projection screen (in bedroom)

With any of my devices.

EDIT:

PC -

i7 920
12gb ddr 1600
560ti 448 core 1280mb
256gb ssd w/1tb external storage

I've always liked Shuttle PCs for some reason. Finally sorted the cooling issues with mine.

what parts do you have in there? (besides the 560ti)

Right now I have my old Q6600 with the same video card hooked up to my TV. Would really like to sell some of those parts and build something more power/space efficient like what you have there.

I'm badly in need of a new desk as well I just can't seem to find one I really like. I'm really tempted to try out some of the ikeahacker desks though I'll just have to price out the parts.

Here was my college apt. setup -
Left: 52" LCD w/ XBOX360
Mid: 120" Screen - Optoma HD20 1080p projector with 5.1 surround - PS3 and PC (specs below)
Right: 50" Plasma with Wii connected (basically just a netflix box)

PC used:
gpu: Radeon 6850
mobo: GA-970A
RAM: 16 gb (4x4)
CPU: AMD FX-8120
*note this was like 15 seconds after setup, so it was still a mess of wires/cords... just figured I would capture the moment it came alive.

... don't have any pics of the current setup but it has the 120" screen and a 55" LED on one wall... couches surronding in a " U " shape, then behind the middle couch is my PC on a desk currently using a 40" LCD as the monitor.... 3x23" eyefinity setup coming though.


I love the fact that you are playing The Office. Steve Carell is just BAWS.

It's an i5-2500k and an Asus H61 motherboard, so I'm stuck at stock speed. Now that the Z77 ITX boards are around I keep telling myself I should get one so I can overclock, but I haven't found the enthusiasm for reinstalling Windows yet.

Apart from that there's 3x2TB hard drives and a now-ancient original OCZ Vertex (30GB !!!) SSD that Windows lives on.

My roomie and I would hop on to start gaming and the first thing we would do is fire up The Office on netflix.... seriously in the year we had this setup we went through every episode, of every season probably over 50 times.... we just played it non-stop as long as one of us was in the room, it never got old.

I have no images of my setups ...

one is a server with no monitor keyboard and mouse in a case with no side panels in a spare room of my house

one is a rosewill thor full tower with 3 moniters on an ikea desk, not the jerker, the wannabe jerker ....

one is my old p180 antec tower which is hooked up to a projector

and one is my older antec mid tower old old pc which has a 19 inch CRT. (gets booted up about once every 2 or 3 months)

Who needs a height adjustable monitor when a couple of VHS tapes and a computer magazine can do the same job?!

I always found it weird to see people set up their systems with the keyboard and mouse on two different planes.

Do you play PC games like that? It seems so odd.

I've got a logitec g13 strapped to the left arm rest of my office chair and the mouse on a low printer table on the right. What's weird to me to not having the controls right where you rest your arms. Keyboards are for typing.
