Title: New Setup
Post by: ebfd11 on December 10, 2014, 03:36:58 PM
Well I decided to do a little revamping to my play area and here are some of the changes...

New lights in wrap form

I like it.  Nice chair set up, and very clean, simple, and well lit up setup to operate in.  I have a very similar sort of layout, without the chair, I prefer to have my forearm resting on the desktop while aiming/flying with my HOTAS setups, but that is just personal pref.  The disadvantage to that is always leaning forward, where as set ups like yours are far, far more comfortable IMO as you can lean back while still having hands on the controls.

Very nice.  I went with blue lighting as well - all except my new monitor, the new Asus gaming monitors have a bright red ring around the base (wtf or what, it doesn't even do anything), which screws up my all blue motif, keyboard, mouse, and case lights of my main rig.  I have the new RGB setup of the missus's box, Corsair mouse and KB with 100s of different color combos - sort of like emoticons for lights, women seem to really like that stuff for some reason.

The fridge you got right, all other stuff is just unnecessary :D

You know, a Finn would never set up a fridge like that though. Why? Too much trouble to refill it (with beer) again each night. Twice on saturdays!
