I see a sexbox 1 stashed away, a crystal edition too , you know you can chip them with Xecutor modchip and then run XBMC @1080i (if you got the HD cable addon) works a treat with the original remote.

AND im not gonna ask what the white cloth is for........;) (above Sexbox)

Mines powered by ground grannies, hamsters in a ball and hope.

Recently upgraded due to the fan on my g-card stopping which was interesting and gave off an interesting smell.

After years of building my own rigs I decided this time round to just buy one. Opted for an alienware X51 with all the options (except ssd, doh!), nothing insane or fancy,

Here's where I get to shoot you guys from tho:

Mines a bit below par
At home a 2ng gen i7 running at 2.2gh with a wait for it Geforce 630M with a lowly 8gig of ram
A surface 3 with an i5, can run BF4 on low/medium

A Phenom hexcore @3.2ghz with twin 6gb 7970 cards and 16gb of ddr3 for midweek in my bedsit whilst contracting
Will upgrade that next year to an i7 but probably keep the GPUs for a few more years until they bring out GPUs that can really do 4k unupscaled games ok

But best of all getting decent internet at home BF4 no longer looks like Duke Nukem with worse graphics than I remember, and actually looks playable on low settings finally

Even though I have been rocking this 'new' build for a while (6 months). I still owe you the pictures.
Feast your eyes on my Battlefield Station!

  • SSD = Samsung 840 EVO 500GB
  • HDD = WD Blue 1TB
  • Case = Corsair 760T
  • Fans = 1 × Corsair SP120 Green

We've got very similar machines, except that I have the 980ti, and my main disk is the 250gb version of the samsung 840 evo, same water cooling, my psu is the ax760 and my case is the corsair obsidian 550d.
