My Battlestation & More

Apr 14, 2018 11:17 PM

Moved into a house I bought about 6 months ago and finally have everything in a state fit to post. Still lots to do, but pretty happy with it so far. Computer and custom desk on the right, Gaming Table in the centre and VR Holodeck on the left.

Gutted the existing basement and opened it up as much as possible. Will finish it when I have the money in about 47 years.

My computer, Obsidian.

Originally built it in 2013, been doing upgrades over the years, but funds are pretty low for any of that now.

Specs: Case: Corsair Obsidian 750d | CPU: Intel i7 4770k (OC'd to 4.4ghz) | MOBO: Asus Sabertooth Z87 | GPU: Zotac GeForce 980 | RAM: 16 gb Corsair Vengeance DDR3-1866 | SSD: 240gb Kingston Hyperx | HDD: 4tb WD Black & 3TB WD Green | PSU: Corsair AX 760i (custom shroud, sleeved extensions) | Cooler: Corsair H100i | Fans: Cougar Vortex HDP | Lights: NZXT Orange LED

Monitor: Acer Preadtor X34 | Keyboard: Corsair K70 RGB | Mouse: Razer Deathadder Chroma | Speakers: Audioengine A5+ | Headset: Kingston HyperX Cloud 2

Desk I built a few years ago, out of some Ikea parts and some nice Oak plywood.

Custom gaming table, more info on my other post here: https://imgur.com/gallery/KbXBX

Built-in TV for maps, charecter art, etc. The blocks and lego contraption hold up my various DM screens.

The party, ready for tomorrows session.

Holodeck, about 10' x 10' room-scale.

Another angle on the space.

Table with the HTC Vive, audio, controllers, chargers, etc. Plan to eventually mount this stuff on the wall.

Ceiling wire-management.

Strapped as much as possible to the ceiling to prevent cables along the ground.

Light-houses

Light-houses

Beginning of the networking gear, fiber connection to Cisco Switch, hard-wiring as much as possible but also have a Ubiquity WAP. Obviously haven't done any cable management yet.

Living room TV set-up. I believe that TV is now 12 years old, one day I'll be able to replace it, one day.

Xbox One, Steam Link, PS4, HDMI switch and various controllers and what-not. Again, cable management "one day"

O man, did I ever try, would not budge above 4.5, but wasn't that stable at 4.5. Been rock-solid at 4.4 though.
