Smear all your valuable items with human faeces, thereby discouraging potential burglars.

Now that you mention it; it does explain why the AFP came and asked to have a look around... supposedly somebody had used my driving license to open a post box, and have cocaine sent to it.

The below is written about apple, though I am sure they won't be much different to other brands....

I seriously don't get it. Keeping up with the Joneses crap. Why do we have to keep up with the Joneses on home AV stuff ...


Er... I'll never, ever keep up with the Jones' on AV stuff.
(This is actually a mate's next-door neighbour.)



Can't wait to go over and play YouTube music through it.

The AppleTV3 does not work.
I can highly recommend the ATV2. The 3rd generation literally does not work.

So you went Nvidia 680? Full size monitor, ie 30"?
My i930 has a 7970 OC, goes like the wind and sounds like it too.



Sure did 30" of pure HD. I went the 670 not much diff between 680 and 670 except price of course.
I also put it in a HAF 920 case this thing keeps everything cool and is so quiet. Loads of room for another 670 very soon.......



This is my sexy graphics

Did you go full H20... I was really tempted to go triple radiator, ended up with just the CPU, and 6 case fans. When I was xfiring it would get really hot.

My card looks the same, except it wipes the floor with yours


My case is a bit more monolithic

Wow! the juxtaposition of exploitation with the egregious consumption illustrated in this thread should be enough to make Chairman Mao rise from the dead and put some serious questions to the Party.

I built ours recently,

38" LCD TV as monitor
Wireless keyboard and mouse to sit back on couch
Sapphire HD 7870 2gig GDDR5 Graphics
AMD FX 8120, 8-Core 3.1 GHz Processor (Black Edition)
16gig Kingston Ram

Nothing fancy but it is a lot better than the Compaq Laptop we had.
