i can see where you spend your money on.  very cool setup if you just run mp3s and stuff through that.  i myself, have 2x 24" full 1080p monitors, tv tuner card, 5770 video card, and a 30 dollar speaker setup.  then i im getting teh re0's and turbines to accompany it.  but yeah very nice setup.
 

 


Thanks. I am thinking of getting a bigger monitor for home use too.

I've seriously got him beat. Dual 24's that do 1920x1200 and are of decent quality panel. The HP LP2465 is just wonderful, but a space hog.


The dual HP LP2465 aren't space hogs compared to the HP ZR30w and a Viewsonic VX2640w.

I live in a college dorm, so I don't have a lot of space to work with, but here is mine.
 

 
 

 

 
Next thing on my list to do: cable management!

I know this is not the "spam the thread with your 3D renders"-thread but this is what I had in mind if I actually got paid for my work since I have the speakers and projector already. Too bad there aren't any sleek looking active monitors though. I remember Fostex had some but they were a tad on the expensive side. Then again I might get passive speakers and an amp while I'm at it, less hassle with the power and line level wires, and it'd look better too.

very nice render pocket rocket. What render software did you use? I remember when I was in high school we used Rhino3D

I use Blender, it's a free open source 3D modeling suite. When I get a desktop, I'll buy an Octane Render for it which is a rendered that uses NVIDIA GPU's to render at blistering fast speeds, almost real-time! I can't decide should I get another set of active speakers as rear speakers and just go with a 5.1 sound card, or sell the actives and get decent passives + amp.

wow projector's are fantastic.  i wish i had a blank wall somewhere in my house big enough to put one.  that setup with the Crysis on it, is almost exactly what i wanted in my room, but my room is too small.  how much would a projector and screen that size run me?

If you want 1080p they start at around $1500, but if 720/868p is okay you can take around $1000 off that as 1080p is a big jump. The screens are relatively inexpensive but replacing bulbs is pricey, many are over $400. Then there are major differences in specs (brightness, contrast, black levels, and keystone capabilities), so do your homework!
