ahahha, us AMD use don't mind at all. It's pretty obvious intel dominated the $200+ cpu market

And have space for a whole Audiophile system on the desk is cool

  Well here is my desk.
I am currently deciding if I can live with the speakers on their sides. If it works I might move up to a triple monitor setup.
The big question is if I really want to spend the money on 2 more 120hz monitors and the 2 780ti's it would take to run them!
Or just 1 780ti and stay with one monitor and pocket 1k.
 
Emotiva Airmotiv 4's, SB Omni external USB sound card. Senn Momentum On Ears with an Antlion Mod Mic.
Comp is an i7 950, 12gb ram, 2- 250 gb ssd's and 2 tb's on platters. 2-gtx 670's sli.
Sub is a Triska Sub I made from the Parts Express Project Showcase.
 
 
 

I found this.
 
"19. Don't put nearfield monitors on their sides (unless they are dual-concentric types) as the sound from the tweeter and bass/mid unit will move out of phase if you move even slightly from the exact centre of the sweet spot. Sideways monitors may look trendy, but they don't work nearly so well as setting them up properly." http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/sep98/articles/20tips.html

Good to know.

Just built my first mITX, an EVGA Hadron. Microcenter was clearing out their ASUS Maximus VI Impact inventory so I grabbed one for $89 along with a $199 4690K and the case. Can't wait to add the Hydro watercooling kit and a gpu block. The Gelid Icy Vision was too big for the case so I had to put the reference cooler back on the 290x, way too loud.

My current computer I just built this month. Sound system same as before. New computer draws less than half the power as old one even though CPU performance has went up by at least 30%. I did downgrade my video though as I don't need high performance video as I'm not a gamer.
