isnt their already a thread for this?

[s1mon]

How does one "de-bezel"?

One removes the bezel, or the outer edge of the monitor to reduce the gap between the monitors.

I thought we had a thread for this too, but meh. That display panel thing is cool as shit btw Elwyn.

Thanks man. One of the reasons i got it was the lcd screen and touch screen. Didn't just want to get ordinary fan controllers with knobs.

[Kerelm]

Mitchy, how can you play an FPS without a mousepad?!

[mod]

Isn't there another similar thread?

If you want wank factor, go with an AquaComputer Aquaero setup.

[Elwyn]

Do you mind me asking, what's it called? I wouldn't mind picking myself up one. My fans are all set to 100% from back when I ran high specs in a tiny case with no air flow, and I'm just too lazy to go into the bios and change them. Plus, who doesn't like extra wank factor?

It's a Aerocool V12XT Touch panel. Got it from pccasegear for $59. there are quite a few touch screen controllers listed, but the v12xt is probably the best looking one. Wire management is going to be a bitch when installing it

[jzx_andy]

Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 (OC'D to 4.2 GHZ)
8gb DDR3 RAM (corsair)
ATI HD 4800 X2 (2gb)
cooler master cosmos case
some random cooler master air cpu cooler (massive lol)

couple of 7200rpm hard drives (~2tb total space)
asus 24" 1920x200 monitor and chimei 22" 1680x1050 monitor
logitech g700 mouse and random microsoft keyboard
some beefy PSU

It's loud and probably uses a shit load of power and wont be that great with games, but hey, i've been running this setup for about 3 and a half years, have only changed GPU since and it's all i need.

I'd love something more quiet and mobile (such as a lanbox) but with laptops being so cheap now, i think i can get a decent refurbished laptop for about the same price :D

Below is my build,

Now as BF4 is coming out soon I was wondering everyone's opinion, should I get another GTX 570 and run dual, or is better selling the one I have and getting a better GPU all together.

I have had massive problems with my GTX 570 until recently I upped the core voltage from 1021-1038 mV, now I haven't had a problem since.

Also I have a Crucial 128 GB SSD that I plan to install (as soon as i get the 2.5inch - 3.5 inch bracket from ebay.) This isn't hard to install is it?

Motherboard: Gigabyte Z77X-D3H

Memory: Kingston HyperX 8GB DDR3 1866MHZ
Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 660
Case: CoolerMaster CM Scout II
Optical Drive: ASUS DRW-24D3ST
Monitor: Old Hisense TV, but might upgrade this soon when I've decided on what to do with it.
SSD: 240GB Samsung drive (boot and utilities drive)
HDD: WD 2TB (games and media drive)
OS: Windows 7 Home OEM

Planning to chuck in an extra 16GB ram into the spare two memory slots on the MB down the track and maybe a Soundblaster ZxR at some stage if I decide to get into music production. First time I've built a PC from scratch, so didn't shoot too high with parts in case I fucked something up, but will be confident in chucking in extra parts from here on in. Might chuck in a better GeForce card to act in SLI mode with the current one depending on how it copes with BF4.
