@kytz ...

u stick masking tap onto your studio xps speakers?
to avoid dust?

Just normal cello tape(the paper type).A few dust spots went inside already, so i'm not taking any chances here

Seems so. LOL.

It's a Logitech Newtouch 200 USB Keyboard with a Logitech MX518 Optical Gaming Mouse, right?
I used that combination before. LOL.

Laptop Keyboard is way too suck for gaming actually because of the heat generated/transferred to the surface of the keyboard from the hardwares.
It burns!

here's my updated desktop area

800x600 sized pictars

it seems that the "banana stand" is getting more and more popular nowadays
maybe i'll consider to buy 1 too hehe..

no speaker huh

i have a crappy USB speakers but i didn't bother
too poor for speakers when both my housemates have got speakers & i'm setup in the living room

A lil update to my workstation... Added Creative GigaWorks T20 and XBOX 360 Controller for Windows, rerouted audio connection from NEC amp back to NAD amp, dinosaurs replaced with dragons in honor of DreamWorks Animation's How to Train Your Dragon ("Toothless" is so cute ).



Anyway, the T20 kinda exceeded my expectations for its size. Highs are detailed and mid-tones are rich/full, bass is accurate and just perfect for music, very good/solid build quality too (It's a GigaWorks afterall). However, I find gaming and watching movies a bit lacking, I guess a subwoofer-equipped system would better suit these needs... The bright blue glowing power LED is kinda annoying

In case you are wondering why I switched back to NAD from NEC, it's because Japanese amps just can't seem to compete with Canadian amps or maybe because I just prefer how NAD amps sound.

Obtaining the XBOX 360 Controller here in Penang is a real pain. PC Depot seems to be the cheapest among all the PC shops (Not many shops sell this gamepad) I surveyed in the Bayan Lepas region, priced at RM148. I thought of going for the console version due to the cheaper price but there are way too many options and risks. There's imitation, grade A and ori... Imitation is RM70, grade A is RM100 and ori is RM130. I actually found a shop selling ori for RM110 but since the package was opened, I can't be certain whether they've swapped the controller with a used one or grade A. The seller claimed they opened the package to stick their warranty sticker, but can't they just do it in front of their customer? And warranty for console versions is only 1 week, even for ori. I got so frustrated and went to buy from PC Depot in the end


T20, gamepad and Toothless.


Dragon!

Nice but will the headphone slip down if you accidentally hit the table with your leg?

Owh,toothless,very cute

and you got that right,xbox controller a very very hard to find in Penang...

plus i no money and want to buy the xbox version wired controller which is only rm100+- one

but....but.....seems like there is no one selling it...

i cable tied non-slip mat onto part of the stand's neck & put rubber footings on it
works pretty well, so far no slips

hehe..xbox controller in penang..
go to pcdepot near megamall prai(pacific)..

you guys can try, 1stop(midlands) gadgetzone in pulau tikus, i bought my wireless from there and i saw USB one there too.

or the pc dept inside prangin mall, kinda like mini lowyat, lol~

RM100 seems to be a reasonable price for the console version Mind if I ask where you bought it?

That's where I bought mine But it's old stock, since the packaging still says designed for Vista... The ones Gadgetzone are selling have a Windows 7 sticker.

But Gadgetzone is RM7 more expensive at RM155 haha...

i didn't buy it...

coz i can't find any

even on the net,i find and find and find,all fail

are they stop selling the console version of xbox wired controller

coz it doesn't seems fair to me that the driver itself need rm50+-

i refuse to buy it,better buy a wireless version which are only rm40-50 of difference

driver = RM50..
woot-woot..

pc depot prai have wireless xbox controller for RM199 and wired RM148..

If you guys wanna buy the wireless version, Gadgetzone is cheaper at RM195 (PC Depot RM199 iianm). There's a shop in BJ selling the console version for RM110.

Paying extra RM50 not just for the driver la, PC version carry 1 year warranty, but console version only 7 days.

By the way, we are getting off topic

ops,got 1 year warranty huh...but i still wouldn't buy it

coz i'm poor

BJ got sell?

which shop?which?!!!

i need to know,srsly

I was looking at some of the earliest posts in this thread, and saw a few people with the same table as mine.
Gave me few ideas to make my setup more clutter-free and easier to access. Just some minor re-adjustments
to the table and placement of equipment. What do u think..?
