My Gaming Rig (Hey EETS)

September 23, 2007 1:26:59 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
I realize its a bit off topic, but I wanted you guys to see my gaming rig, also known as 'God-Comp' by me and my friends. Here are two pics complete with sins playing on it.

Notably, it is desktop parts crammed into a mobile gun case, complete with wheels and extendo-handle.

BeCause I CAN (well with 2500$ and my buddy Ben as the slave engineer I can)

Poor guy charged me 250$ for roughly 4 months of labor... probablly 200 hours real time to build that beauty...

You may notice that it has a big red flight switch for master emergency killing of power. Also it has ac outlets... it charges my phone... powers printers and saves kittens.

You'd think they would shoot her when they get their guns out like ten times.

you generally arent supposed to shoot someone unless they present a threat to you or others. otherwise its still murder.

Looks like a really uncomfortable keyboard to use?

Is it wireless and you can take it out, now that would have been cool!

Sadly no, they dont have any wireless keyboards of the right size, however it has a 5 foot cable so you can take it out... and call me old school but I hate your fancy ergonomic keyboards... its a basic standard issue Del in there.

Im working on finding a illuminated keyboard of the right size.

Also working on installing a lamp....

Ya know... if you went to that much trouble to get a custom case/system like that. Why not mod a keyboard? Get a wireless keyboard with the manufacturer/keys that you like and take it out of the keyboard case, and design your own.

Actually I have Type Writer keys popped off for just such a project... but time is an issue.

And notably I really like the position and such of that key board there... I just need to get off my ass and get another one to work with.
