Feel free to PM me about almost anything and I'll do my best to answer. :)

All you'd see in a picture of mine is a bunch of wires leading to a USB hub, an external HDD, external DVD burner, and a laptop sitting on it's cooler...

 

Better would be posting the details of the computers and their peripherals... For example:

 

Dell 1558 Laptop

Intel i5-450m processor

6GB 1333 DDR3 RAM at 7-7-7-20 timing

500GB Seagate Momentus 7200RPM

1TB ESATAII HDD (Hitachi Deskstar HDD in enclosure)

Radeon Mobility 5470 with 2GB dedicated GDDR5 RAM

1366x768x60 max monitor settings

Logitech G700 Gaming Mouse

Rosewill external keypad

ASUS external DVD burner

 

Much more informative of the capabilities of the system, don't you think?

Don't insult me. I have trained professionals to do that.

Wait a minute, scratch that statement. Anyway, your description is most informative, that thing must have cost a lot.

Crikey that seems a lot to spend on a mouse. I use a Microsoft Intelimouse, it's lovely (and wasn't that expensive).

IMO the $90 was well worth it. I can't see how I ever did any gaming without it...

 

Oh BTW, it auto-adjust the sensitivity of the mouse sensor for different games...

That tower is huge! I like the eerie blue glow. What's with all the cables to the left of the case?

All these AMDs... I am so disappointed in you all...

 

I will never buy another AMD processor, or a computer with an AMD processor in it. (I used to have one, but their modern stuff sucks)

Don't insult me. I have trained professionals to do that.

Never used a modern AMD CPU, but their HD 5770 GPU works great and fast for me.

Well it used to be the top mid range card out there some weeks ago... I purchased this when my 8800GTS 640mb died. a bit of an upgrade . Mine is a sapphire, what's yours?
