Very messy with two mismatched tables. And I recently found out that Ikea stopped making my table in Beech Veneer, so if I decide to colour coordinate, I'd have to buy a new top.
 
Never cease to amaze Adam, I wish I could drop that much on my rigs :awe:
I have to wonder though, how do you keep the inside looking so pristine dust wise? I mean that baby looks brand new on the inside and I know it isn't.
Even if my climate was half as dusty I'd still not be able to keep it that clean.

Stealing someone's photo, because I've never photographed my own.

I have an air purifier in my computer room and I dust regularly.
 
I saw all 5 and was able to use all 5. 4 GPUs from the two 690s doing the rendering and the 650Ti doing PhysX.

What, didn't wanna pony up for the 680 to do PhysX?

All joking aside, you probably have one of the better gaming setups on this forum (though a few could probably match)
 
Am I the only one who thinks that monitor is INSANELY red tinted?

Was waiting for someone to comment on this. I think it's something to do with the flash on my camera because I can clearly see the pinkish tint in that pic too but the AnandTech background looks fine and just plain grey right now next to it. Or maybe a filter I used.
 
My desk

The snake thing is probably 12 or 13 years old. I worked at McDonald's and we got those beanies from the manager. I put it on my monitor at home and it became monitor snake. 😛

I have a Rafiki from McShithole who got skinned and turned inside out. He's been getting tacked up over the door at every place I've lived ever since. Probably about the same age. Think I still have a pile of those damn teenie beanie babies. Investments 😛

Kinda boring but there it is. Currently there are 3 desktops and 2 laptops in the picture though 2 of the desktops are on the side of the desk over to the left. My view is an ok one but with it being dark and all there is little to see now.

What size are those three monitors? I've been tempted to get two more 30"-ers, but then I remember that I have a house to pay off.

They are 24" (Dell U2412M), I wanted to buy 3 30" but my wife vetoed it. I can't really blame her, the setup is sweet but I already have problems playing games in 5760x1200, 7680 x 1600 would have destroyed my poor card 😀

Does that signal booster actually work? I installed an AT&T Microcell at my mother's home. Requires an Internet connection. Performance and reliability sucks, though. HSPA+ phones report "4G," even though they only get 3G speed through the thing.
 
If I took a pic my camera would crack because it is such a mess right now. And I don't feel like cleaning it up either 😛

Maybe later.

It does. It's the Wilson Sleek 800/1900 MHz booster. It requires 1 USB port and has a remote antenna I have parked up in my front window. I feel like I'm talking on a Brick when it's in the holder, but it's the only reliable way I can make a phone call from my house.

Normally I'm lucky to get 1 bar on my 3GS, I get 4-5bars when it's in the Wilson.

Edit: ...and I bought this on my dime, I didn't want anything ATT was offering.

No, HSPA/HSPA+ phones do not do that. iPhones do. My phone distinguishes E, 3G, H, and H+ in the status bar. It says "3G" when it's on the same microcell your phone reports as "4G." It says "H+" or "E" everywhere else (never saw the 3G indicator off the microcell). Your phone is simply misreporting it.
