Ha! I had assumed they'd be automatically resized to fit the board. It's all good- they have been scaled down a bit now :)

Not quite up to scratch with some of the ones I've seen on this site but I think it comes together pretty nicely.

I've updated my setup a bit lately and I suppose it'd be rude not to share.

I'm sure this has been asked to death but it seems a lot of the information I find, while partially relevant, is never really as to-the-point as I'm after. I have my PC send audio from my GTX 770 over HDMI to my 5.1ch Onkyo AVR. This handles the audio and sends the video out to my display...

The single 560ti is fine for the most part, I'm just half-considering an upgrade because I'm starting to see it struggle with newer games. I have also considered going for nvidia surround (2D) which would of course need either a 770 or a second card, and would dramatically increase my...

Mmmm I am thinking a 760/770, but I wondered if I could get similar performance if I just grabbed a second 560ti. I didn't think about the heat issue. I am running in an mATX case (350D) and am using quiet edition corsair fans so that could present an issue. I also would rather not switch to...

Asus Maximus V Gene, i5 2500K @ stock atm, 8GB RipjawsX @ stock, single display @ 1080p.

I've got an Asus 560ti DCU II and am considering a gpu upgrade. My question is this- do I buy a second 560 for SLI, or instead save up a bit and go for a newer single card? What are your thoughts?

I currently use a Mamba on my bare desk and while I have no real issues it does occasionally not respond as well as I'd like. This is probably because the desk isn't just a surface for my mouse- I do tons here including eat. I've been thinking it might be worth investing in a mouse mat so I...

Very nice. Like your window on that 350D. I'm a little annoyed I didn't get a Corsair PSU now having seen the gorgeous braided cable sets.

Apologies- uploaded them elsewhere. All should be good now :-)

Windows 8 is essentially Windows 7 with a few under-the-hook tweaks to improve performance, and with the ability to support the new platform for metro style applications. Chances are on a desktop system you'll never touch the metro apps but I like knowing I can run them if I chose, and should...

@Ballashoes: Where did you get that desk? It looks perfect! :-)

I'm a bit late here but why not. It's not particularly special and I don't have the desk space to display it as well as I'd like (half my desk is taken up by an AVR) but still- here's my baby (apologies for the phone cam):
