#1:  New Rig! Author: SplatFace, 

Hey guys, It's been a while since I've had a chance to settle down after getting this beast of a rig I was always talking about way back when we were playing Battlefield 3 and around the release of Battlefield 4.

To be frank I was getting tired of the laptop I've had for 2 years now. It's good for school work, and by that I mean High School stuff. Those days are long gone, and good riddance.

Don't let its sleek appearance fool you, after 2 years of the shit I put it through; running Battlefield 4 for a few hours straight the gpu... It started to make some not so good smells. The negative kind of vibes if you catch my drift.

The HP Pavilion DV6; 1920x1080, core i7, Nvidia Geforce GT 650M - 2gb, 1 TB HD. (Seen left)

The box on the far right is a Linux dedicated box. I use this to host home run dedicated servers of the sorts when playing with friends on new games and such. It's also a test environment to get myself better acquainted with the Linux environment.

I've been using the next two with the laptop for a while now. I've had my Logitech G110 Keyboard since my last desktop (which I sold when getting the laptop). And this lovely Ttesports Level 10M Mouse. (I highly recommend the mouse. It's comfortable, it doesn't have a shitload of buttons like a naga, but still has enough buttons for comfort. The weight of the mouse also makes the difference from a standard $10-$20 mouse.
