Post a pic of your RAM.
I wanna see what 12GB looks like IRL.


This is OCZ Platinum Series 2 GB DDR3 Memory sticks.
each memory stick is 2 GB and is covered on both sides by heatsinks.

Note: I have to do a clean install now since windows update fucked me over.

Gloating points.
Virtual PC's.
64 bit OS.
Extra Horse Power
Will allow the PC to still be above standards for the years to come.
My Dad's setups usually last for around a decade or more and still stay better then the standard.

Note: It came with the bundle since the parts were bundled as a barebone kit on tigerdirect.com

You get the 64-bit OS for the RAM, not vice-versa.

Of course, Metroid would be the only person crazy enough to use 12GB RAM.

Needs better GPU under there.

(GTS 250 currently, which are essentially lower power consumption 9800 GTX+)

Also, I've heard of people using 24gb.
anonymous_old
I feel so constrained with 4GB and two cores.

=[
Rokodo
Well, I'm now on 2 cores and 2GB DDR2 RAM whilst my disassembled system lies in a box. I'm currently awaiting for parts to arrive before I rebuild.

So for now, my setup:

Remco32
So you have all these awesome high-end computer parts, but no bigass monitor?
Rokodo
I have a 22" LCD and this 19" CRT currently, but planning a tri or quad display later on.

New case, added Zalman CPU cooler.

Still to come are 1000W PSU, and eventually a new mobo to accommodate 2 x GTX 260 cards.

Not really. I require the speed for encoding video on the fly, and with the heavy multitasking I force the thing to do, the grunt is nice.

Now overclocked the i7 to 4ghz.

My 22" is only just tolerable for 1080p. If I can easily see individual pixels I get extremely irritated.

But an eye strain, so I don't bother. I keep it at 2304x1440. =]

Kwut? My 2006 classic runs osu! play mode at 150fps @ 1920x1200 so I couldn't possibly see the problem.

My 24" @ 1920x1200 is all I could ever see a use for. It's not like any video's going to be higher resolution than this, most webpages have thick margins on both sides already, and games are sharp--almost always sharper than their UI textures. ._.

Desktop space no. I had a second monitor but I wasn't even using it.

tl;dr Weegee's PC isn't very powerful.

Previously on peppydesk...



Bye speakers + amp - you served me well. No longer using enough to warrant the space and heat.
Bye touchscreen - you found a home in the first osu!arcade unit (I miss you as my fullscreen spectogram...)
Bye 17" monitor - gave to parents for their office PC.
Bye vaio laptop - powering osu!arcade.





Hello more minimalistic layout.


anonymous_old
Hey peppy, do you know how boring it is to see your workstation day after day with only the mess on your desk disappearing slightly? You should get more creative or post less frequently >.>.

Rebuilt my PC with a couple of upgrades:

Not relevant, no SLI as due to lack of monitor support past 2.

usually pushing above 2000 though.

I think I can warrant posting in here considering the scale of my change (you better not complain this time strager).



Moved into my actual bedroom, from basement. Is a welcome change of atmosphere offering more natural light and fresh air. Mmm. Still in the process of moving stuff up so I may post another shot in the not so distant future.

I need one of these rounded tables, where I can put stuff on my side.
I like having my desk completely clean (pretty much like that screenshot) at all time, but three monitors is definitely way to much to fit in a small table like this (which is pretty much why I had to put one in tallscreen)

I feel your pain. such is the problem with space that my side monitors are at what I consider ridiculous angles to make my CRT go further back - if I have it facing me straight, it takes up most of the desk's depth. Trying to get a job to pay for new UltraSharps.

I'm jealous of the sheer width of your table. Could use the extra width to have my speakers up here instead of on the floor. Also is that solid oak? Looks similar to mine.

Not really OH-SHI-, unless you can see through the desk. I'm guessing you're looking at the piles of storage devoted to discs.
