Agreed, it did. But he still built his current house, which is a fugly box. Money, sadly, does not buy taste.

Here's my small setup for now:
The computer specs are:
Intel 2600k @ 4.5ghz | Noctua NH-D14 | Asus P8Z68V-Pro GEN3 | 16GB G.Skill RipjawsX 1600mhz 9-9-9-24-2T | 256GB Samsung 840 Pro | 160GB Intel 320 Series | EVGA GTX 780 Ti 3GB w/ hi-flow bracket | Seasonic X750 | CaseLabs Merlin SM8 | X-Fi Titanium HD | Samsung SH-222BB | Win 7 Pro 64-bit | ASUS VH236H | Creative T40 | Corsair K70 w/ Cherry MX brown switches | Logitech MX 518 | Audio Technica ATH-AD700 (not pictured)
The ps3 is hooked up to the monitor via hdmi and that's a cable modem next to the left speaker. Nothing fancy but it gets the job done.

Cheers.
Melbourne ain't cheap. Though yeah the house doesn't match what's parked in the driveway.
I rather like the utilitarian look of the house.
Love the way you've laid out your apartment. Really using the space to it's fullest.
Utterly shocked at the prices in SF though. My 3brdm, 1000spft in Phoenix was $1000/mo.
Crazy how much prices differ.
I really like that kind of apartment size. Though for single people only not that I don't want to get married lol
I hope my GTX 670 will hold for another year or so

Probably won't be until the end of the year when I post my pictures. Bought a house and got the family room pretty much done. Gotta tie the book cases into the wall, hang the TV, buy the in wall speakers, and terminate some cable. Either way, can't wait to post the photos.

place the link to the image inside:
I know that, I was having trouble getting the links from that page. Had to go to Chrome to get them.
Panasonic 65VT60 Plasma, Polk Monitor 70 and CS2 speakers
Component Rack with Onkyo Receiver, XBOne, PS4, Dreamcast and original Wii
Wall mounted shelves with my Blu-ray movie collection and a few games (notice that Gurren Lagann Box Set)
A couple pieces of gaming art
Computer setup that I dock my MacBook Pro with.. One Thunderbolt cable connects everything on that desk, it's pretty cool

Recently got a new TV unit, what better opportunity to take photos?
Probably when I have better light, oops. Sorry for the gross quality, iPhone and inside doesn't quite work well for me :\
ANYWAY
TV and consoles (I really like this new TV unit, lets me mount the TV so it's not taking up space on the cabinet.)
PC
Specs:
Intel 2500K @ 4.6GHz (Noctua NH-D14 cooler)
16GB DDR3 RAM
MSI GTX 560Ti (had a 7970,. but the drivers were just so trash and made it a clusterfuck to get audio working over HDMI, so I went back to my old card and sold the 7970 >_>)
Also some storage SSDs and HDDs and optical drives and shit
It's hard to get a decent shot of my PC's internals with the light/camera/position it's in, but this is the best I could manage.
Since it's hard to see, here's a more exposed image of the consoles. Everything is black! (Except the Wii)
And my most recent addition, a Rega RP1 turntable.

Lovely Apartment, excellent use of space.
If you don't mind me asking, what media unit are you using? It looks about perfect for all of my equipment and id like to find something similar.
Thanks in advance
Thank you
Here is the media unit I use.

This thread is making me want to get off my ass and finish my basement / man cave. I already paid out the ass for a water management system and framing and ran the electric. Sadly PAX East took far more of my money than I expected ;(
Soon.... soon.....

i do most of my gaming in my man cave, it's a pretty solid setup for me! outside of a bit more space i wouldn't really change anything
Seating area, both ends of the couch recline however the middle seat does not. Couple side show statues (dutch from predator, kratos, alien, predator, wolverine) and some signed jerseys
Game rack plus some other random stuff (3d glasses for the tv, guitar cleaning kits, picks, etc...). can't see the systems too well however theres 2 xboxs, 2 n64s, dreamcast, sega genesis, nes, ps2
Guitars area plus a side view of the bar
TV plus unit, you can kind of see the front speakers here as well.. but i have a 5.1 polk setup with a pioneer receiver. other systems go here... ps3, ps4, 360 and a d-link nas for media
there's also a bathroom + show around the corner, but didn't bother taking pics of that. Upstairs theres a 40" lcd tv with a wii u and wii, but there isn't much to it so didn't bother taking any pics of that either

My man cave/recording studio
We haven't been in the house very long so the walls are yet to be decorated. I'm planning on putting in the Chameleon C6 sound panel package from Ready Acoustics and getting a decent love seat to replace that old poverty office chair I'm using for racing/big screen gaming and then eventually replacing the old bose bookshelf speakers with something a bit nicer.
I've got a better home theater setup in our main living room but keep it in there for watching movies and TV.

Cool, here´s mine:
Gotta be damn cold in there, high wooden ceilings and the walls don't look heat-insulated either O:

Roof is isolated from the outside - wanted to keep this look. Still pretty cold in the winter.
I enjoy some ambient lighting in general, and it's to focus more on the screen while playing when the room is dark.
I use some ikea LED setup.

Bare brick walls in a studio? That can't be good.
Great setup. Gojira on TV and Protest the Hero vinyl next to it, nice.
First thing I noticed as well! And for a Mini? A friend of mine makes these fine side panels. I think they are gorgeous.

Not perfect, but also not as bad as one would think.
