is that a cooler master haf 932 computer case? i'm doing another build soon and am thinking about getting one. is it really 12.7 inches UP TO the hard drives, enough to fit long vid cards?

Yup.

I couldn't stand having a soldering iron near my PC. Just BTW...
 
That and my desk is wooden.
 
Damn my Cmoy and lack of workbench. The kitchen counter begins to become less inviting each time.

How dare you. That is an IBM Model M, correct? I am a newly converted mechanical keyboard user. Razer BlackWidow is a hell of a bargain even if it is of questionable quality. XD

 

[jtaylor991]

yeah I'm gonna get the ultimate BlackWidow with backlighting (must have for me) when there's one in stock (goddammit!). i was talking about the looks of the old white-tannish keyboard mixed with shiny black stuff. minus the keyboard nice setup! put a blackwidow in there and that would be EPIC

I was just saying that "tannish keyboard" deserves him +100 internets. 
The BlackWidows is great. Mechanical keyboards are a completely different experience. I am looking for excuses to type. 
 
 
Edit:
New pics of my rig will be posted as soon as I get my Asgard.
All the shiny black and blue lights is cliche but nevertheless cool. I want to build a wooden PC case though...

This room is such a mess at the moment. I'm in between recording spaces so recording equipment has been jammed in including 15 acoustic panels (out of frame)!
 
Hopefully I can post an after shot when we find a new recording space to move to. Keyboards, mics, stands, mbox, profire, cables etc all have to go! (I might keep the Xbox...)

I do all my DIY work on my desk. It helps to be able to look at schematics and whatnot. I've had solder hit the glass, and it just wipes off. What's really tricky is when you get flux on the desk.
 
I really need a bigger desk TBH. I'm going to clean up tomorrow, hopefully.

I have the same pair of Yamaha monitors, they're nice .

 

[MantisMU]

Yeah they had the flattest frequency response in that price range. It's funny, everything the salesman tried to push on me just sounded like consumer mini-system fare. Bloated bass, recessed mids, and a spiked top end. I said "those Yamaha's have the most uninteresting and flat sound out of everything you've shown me. I'll take 2 pairs."
 
He seemed surprised.

Exactly what I think about other brands in this price range. I'm not a recording engineer, but I mostly listen to instrumental, orchestra and soft vocal music like folk, celtic style and similar, this speaker accurate frequency response and stereo imaging really shines. It does lack lower end for someone else but IMO you can fix that with a sub or some equalizer if you really need it. You can't really make speaker sounds better if it's muddy and veil in the first place, though.

Nope, that's a 25" version. For $150 it was a steal.

I hear the 28" version is superior in quality, though. Can you confirm?

Yeah, it's freaking awesome.
Here it is on my desk (which is messy, I'm working on building a DAC for someone. I just got my MOT status, so I'm allowed to do it.)
 
 
I got a new chair too, it's great. No more back pain.
 
 
 
This is the view from the seat, it takes up all of my peripheral vision. Awesome for movies. I paid like $260 for it.

What resolution is the monitor?

1920 x 1200 is I'm not mistaken

Argh, way to small of a resolution for a 28" monitor. Guess I'll keep looking. Work has me way too spoiled with a 2560x1600 30" on my desk.
