Computer wish lists

[dr.walrus]

Post your wish lists here. For the real nerds, post your silly wish lists (you want but can't have) and your vaguely possible wishlist (what you'd buy within the next year if you received a sudden unexpected promotion, but basically won't get).

SILLY-

This case, with my current computer in one side and one of the new core i7s in the other side. And loads of 5970 eyefinity 6's outputting to like 50 screens

VAGUELY REALISTIC-
One more 1920x1200 24" monitor and a 5870 so I could run all three in eyefinity, another 4GB of ram, not interested in HDD space, I've got about 650GB total and I use less than 100 of that, the rest is just backup. And a 5850 for the 22" screens, and a new power supply (bout 800w) and a top of the line phenom II. And a watercooling system.



I think I have a problem with buying more monitors

On the silly side:
3 24" Dell Monitors
ATI 5970 graphics card
Intel Core i7-980X Extreme Edition

An HP Blackbird
An HP Firebird
An Alienware M15x (fully spec'd)
An Alienware Aurora ALX (fully spec'd)
Dell XPS M2010
Dell Crystal monitors

55" Samsung LED 3D television
Home theater PC
D-Box motion system
HD Projector

On the more realistic, but probably not going to happen soon side:

Network Attached Storage (I have 3Tb of data on this computer that I would hate to lose, so backup is starting to itch at the back of my head)

CoolIt Maestro
Alienware M11x
Logitech G13

On the realistic and probably going to happen soon side:
A UPS
5 fans to replace the noisy ones in my computer
Some kind of semi-powerful laptop solution for the rest of my college career

Quick edit to mine. I added the G13 to my reasonable, but not happening soon area. I guess nobody else has a wish list.

Somewhat vaguely realsitic: Couple SSD drives in RAID 0, a pair of 5870's in xFire and a nice WC cooling setup

Heheh, ok, let's see here...

Silly:

6x 5970's
2x Corsair 256GB C300's (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148349) for OS

(Sorry, I would put more info, but all the hardware isn't quite out yet ;) )

All linked together with Infiniband (thus the 6x GPUs instead of 7), and of course, everything watercooled. Let's say, linked to a giant cooling loop running through bedrock surrounding an underground river. :D

That's as far as I can go without delving into enterprise stuff. :twisted:


Oh, I completely forgot! An OC-768 (37.584 Gbps) connection.


Realistic:
Two more Samsung 2343's and another GTX260 for ...I forget what they call it, nVidia's "totally not eyefinity" thing.

[dr.walrus]

Two more Samsung 2343's
I'M NOT ALONE

Seriously though, with a brand new £250 2443 I prefer the £100 2 year old 245BW i picked up off the futuremark forums. The design is great but the screen itself? It's really good but it's very very far from perfect. worse than the 245b.
