Turning Point Gaming Rig? Not mine you say?
lucashoal | 3:02 PM on 03.08.2008 20 comments


Basic looking shiny black case with piracy sticker from the Jinx.



I have an ASUS Motherboard, MSI Vidjacard, and a Pentium 4, which are what the other stickers up front are for. NOW THE INSIDES!





It looks like ass and a mess, I know D:. I don't have twist ties to re-tie everything, and I to cut some loose to install my third HDD (visible at the bottom right of pic 3 of the post). Third pic shows my fans, including my sexy new 80cm ASUS fan. ALSO! These pictures were taken while my computer was running. I <3 my camera.




Last two pictures show my desktop and setup, with my now 3 year old mouse and keyboard...and what the rest of my desk looks like for the most part.

AND FINALLY A FOOD BRIBERY TYPE PICTURE. You know you want some.

Neonie's Destructoid Blog
Lol, Mandatory fox plushie. I has one too.
CaffeinePowered's Destructoid Blog
wtf is your top drive a tape reader?
HawtPawkitHero's Destructoid Blog
I think it's a zip drive.
lucashoal's Destructoid Blog
It is indeed mandatory Neonie

@Caff & Pawkit - It's a removable drive.
Jetsetlemming's Destructoid Blog
How small is that monitor? It looks absolutely tiny compared to your keyboard in that picture.
lucashoal's Destructoid Blog
19", the angle is what makes it look off.
PsychosesMan's Destructoid Blog
Why is there tape on your Zen Vision:M? And is it the 30-gig or the 60-gig?
Tragic Hero's Destructoid Blog
I don't think this should count as an entry. The title is all wrong...
Eschatos's Destructoid Blog
Indeed, the title is not in the accepted MLA format. You are disqualified!
lucashoal's Destructoid Blog
@Psychoses - it's on my Rhinoskin case. Dropped it awhile ago and the case cracked and the edges snapped off. It still works perfectly fine, but I needed to hold the case closed. It's a 30Gb one, also.

@Tragic & Esch - FUCKYOUITSACCEPTABLEIWANTEDTOBEDIFFERENTFGTS>:C
Jayeugene's Destructoid Blog
InWin makes good quality cases.
PrinceofCannedPeaches's Destructoid Blog
You are aware, my furry friend, that last photo is made out of ANIMAAAAL?
Neonie's Destructoid Blog
being a furry does not make you a vegitarian.
tehdopefish's Destructoid Blog
that monitor looks taller than it is wide.. how odd.
lucashoal's Destructoid Blog
What Neonie said Peaches. That and animal is tasty :D.

@tehdopefish - huh...it does, at least in the picture. My native resolutions is 1280x1024, so it's normally proportioned.
Eques-Ardor's Destructoid Blog
Trillian, AVG, Steam, Extender Resource Monitor, and a weird skin that makes your clock look silly.
PsychosesMan's Destructoid Blog
Actually, 1280x1024 is a 5:4 aspect ratio rather than the standard 4:3. 1280x960 would be normally-proportioned.


lucashoal's Destructoid Blog
SPARKLE SPARKLE. I don't know standard sizes and all really :D. I just know this is a common ratio, and I like it.

@Eques - you missed Sysmetrix, and no idea what the ERM thing is. The skin is built into my version of Windows, it's sexy.
Eques-Ardor's Destructoid Blog
I just guessed a program that had a black box as it's icon, and what version of Windows are you using? :P
lucashoal's Destructoid Blog
Ahh, that box is for Sysmetrix. Tracks my CPU usage. And the Windows I has is... a slightly modified version of XP Pro I DIDN'T pirate.

 about me




I CAN HAS PEEP NAOW?



Clog banner by [WTF]Joel - LOVE HIM AT FULL FORCE.

I am a furfag if the avatar didn't make it obvious, I make no attempts to hide it. Is that a bad thing though? Not in the slightest. I'm not one of the retarded fuckups of the fandom, I'm rather mellow and sane really.

Moving on... I'm not a HUGE gamer, but I game enough. I dig card games and board games moreso really since they don't require specialized hardware that costs FIVE HUNDRED AND NINETY NINE US DOLLARS. Mostly I like the non-collectible non-standard varieties.. such as Munchkin, Fluxx, and Hex-Hex. I like Axis & Allies, but it takes to damn long to play regularly, and I need people who know how to play before I can play really.

I have a Wii though, and I remain a Nintendo fanboy because I'm not so big on Sony and Microsoft. I'm more a fan of the Mario series and weird games like Cooking Mama and Warioware. I tried RE4 and failed miserably, couldn't even make it through the first village without losing my head quite literally. I'm waiting on SSBB since it will be epic.

Otherwise, I used to be a big PC Gamer but not so much lately. Especially Lucasarts Adventure games and Action Adventure games. I've played through Half-Life 2...but I cheated the whole way through. I suck at shooters, seriously. I like Civ games like...Civ IV oddly enough. Gimme Industrial and Financial and I'll be happy. I loves me my World Wonders. Come to think of it, God Games I like. And I've recently played through Psychonauts, that was fun. Overlord is fun to... damn, so many games...

If ya wanna get in touch with me for some reason, my email is darkfire826@lycos.com. Just put D-Toid or something like that in the email title.

...and I will always be a fan of the Super Mario Bros. movie, despite it being universally hated.
