OK so after a lotta faffing they've finally shipped my monitor. It should be arriving in the next couple of days.
Click here for details... :-)
I saw this http://www.ebuyer.com/product/225558?utm_source=google&utm_medium=products its an Intel Gigabyte An ok price, woulda liked a bit cheaper but I'm prepared to pay that. Its got enough clout...
Ok so I went for an Acer. Its hardly top of the range but its got the resolution and the brightness i was after. Thanks for all your help guys. So... thats the visuals out the way, I have my...
Nah its ok I deserved it! lol
I had looked on google, but there dont appear to be many options out there for that screen. Here in the UK we have a tech pawn shop called cex (i think its consumer...
Can't believe I fell for that...lol
Ok fair enough. I'm convinced. In that case I have found a damaged Dell 3008 but I can't seem to find replacement parts for it. DIs there a Dell parts reseller that anyone knows of?
Dude if I could rep you I would!
cheers for that information. It's helped me a great deal.
Thanks very much for the advice. You're right in saying that it is a replacement panel. Its made very clear that it is so in the advert. It is marked as in perfect working order as it is brand new...
Hmmm yh all very good points.I found a 24" panel for £35 which seems like a good price. The problem is that it doesn't have the inverter and what not. Do you know where I can get these parts? Also,...
I only think 1920x1080 is a compromise because I'm on 1440x900 currently on a 19". So I'm only gaining 180px for 5" it doesn't seem right. Maybe thats just what I'll have to do though.
Whaddya...
Ok so I found a suitable monitor. The problem is that a) its a massive 30" b) its expensive $700 and c) I'd have to buy two. So perhaps its not so suitable. It's the same panel that apple uses in...
the system*
Yh I'm pretty sure I'm gonna buy the part... hehehe
Thanks so much for the help guys.
I don't mind the insides being hacky and ugly, this is about the outside of the case. I just need to make...
Ok so If I use a standard graphics card, is there anyway I can mount it flat, adjacent to the motherboard?
The raisers that I have found all put the graphics card across the top of the cpu which...
I have a laptop lol. I have thought about a laptop mobo for the basis, its not a bad idea. But then I'm limiting myself for the hardware like multiple hardrives and EPIC RAM(thats a technical term...
hmm, looks good. I was hoping for something beefier. maybe i5 with a beffier graphics card. It would be great if I can find a diddy mobo like that thats beefier. I'll have a look on linitx and...
I see. So I could potentially use two, one for the graphics card and another for the rest of the system.
I think that might work.
I'll find out the power consumption numbers of the components...
I did plan on separating the OS's on different drive. I've got nothing against partitioning.
Do you remember what the power was like with the tiny PSUs?
Yh I may well have to prototype. I have very little experience blueprinting. I have used a couple of cad and 3ds-maxy programs before but for nothing more than fun.
There are pros and cons to...
I can't post pics coz I don't have the components. Ideally I'd like to make the whole thing from wood, but I'm not sure how viable that is. Aluminium would be amazing but i think it'll be costly.
hmm I spose I could leave the monitor case on but wouldn't that take up more room?
oh yh and yes it has vesa mounts
yh I was planning the make the whole thing, case and all. So I can take the monitor apart. i want the most integrated look i can get.
I think an Atom would be waaay too slow. I was thinking of using this as my creative hub. So a bit of programming, a bit of drawing, a bit of 3d graphics, and a bit of web design. I don't think an...
