    Brand: Custom :)
    Case: Thermaltake V3 Black Edition
    Type: Desktop
    Monitor: 20" Dynex (I think)
    Processor: Intel Core i5-2500K 3.3Ghz Unlocked LGA1155 CPU
    MB: MSI P67A-C43 B3 Intel P67 Socket LGA1155 MB
    Graphics: Galaxy GeForce GT 430 1GB DDR3 PCIe
    RAM: Corsair Vengeance 4GB PC12800 DDR3 1600MHz (need at least 1 more)
    HDD: Seagate 1TB LP Serial ATA HD 5900/32MB/SATA-3G
    CD/DVD: Lite ON 24X DVDRW SATA OEM
    Camera: no
    Wireless: Netgear USB adapter (can't remember the name)
    Keyboard: Logitech G15
    Mouse: Logitech MX518

    This is the first rig I built myself and I'm pretty impressed with it. Needs a few upgrades over time, but right now it blows my old 6 yr old comp out of the water so I'm happy with it. I have BF3 running almost maxed no problems! I do need to get a network card since our wireless is a little shady.

    Umm.. it's ok I guess.

    using a crucial SSD, i7 3.4hgz, the sandy-thingy. There's a couple other drives for archiving, traditional mechanical.
    8gb of DDR3. Not the fastest, the second fastest. 1.8ghz?
    I don't remember the board brand. It was pretty highly recommended.
    using 24 + 19 monitor setup. The 24 is the high gamut dell 2408WFP+ I think. The 19 is an old Viewsonic. Still has better color than most monitors I see. Very important for photo editing.
    Using a pci-ex network card, intel somethin'
    Using a sound card... Crud, I forget. It's not Clabs or mAudio. Starts with an A maybe. Drivers are all in .rar. Stupid.

    I think my video is geforce 280? I dont spent big on video card. My primary use is Photoshop and Lightwave.

    I have one of those gaming keyboards with the 18 macro keys, which I don't use. I also have two different gaming keyboard addon thingies (nt52? Logitech something) that I don't use.
    Classic logitech gaming mouse of some sort. Has the silver swirlies and is indestructible.

    I do my gaming with sennheiser usb headset if i need mic, or I use a headphone amp and sennheiser HD580 cans.


    Final note: I love the SSD. My loading screens in Skyrim are less than a second. Downside is, I can't read the tip text fast enough.

    As a DJ I have logged sooo many hours wearing those. Easily over a few thousand hours over the years. At one time they were the most popular "DJ" headphone out there. I currently and for a long time have been using Technics RP-DJ1200.

    For sound isolation the Tech's are great. They really fit & hug your ear. I have used the Pioneer HDJ-1000 also and they are almost a duplicate of the Sonys.

    But TBH if you want a truely awesome sounding pair of cans check out SENNHEISER brand. Specifically, the HD-25 series models. My old roommate had them and they blew everything else out of the water. Check em out. ;)

    One thing to invest in too is a powered audio card. Most people do not have this, and its a huge downfall of computer audio in my opinion. If you DJ, you have this (Im assuming) on your mixer. It sends phantom power through the line, which allows your speakers to get a huge boost. My laptop does not have this built in, and if I dont want to whip out my external sound card, I use this thing called Boostaroo. For $30, I can make my headphones get as loud as SPEAKERS, with no quality loss. Very cool
