Finally replaced my 40 inch LCD with a Samsung 55 inch LED UN55ES8000. This TV has everything...voice control, motion control, 3D, movie files support, Samsung apps, web browser, youtube, and that sexy slim bezel. I'm also surprised at the extra detail I'm seeing in gaming on this new TV. Overall, I'm quite happy with the purchase.

Beautiful tv but suffers from input lag, and you have it with street fighter..
 
All of your consoles are hooked up at once, eh? I like your style. I do the same thing.

You should really put those images in quotes, though.

Yep. Sounds like you have good taste in style too. Always picking up new games for different systems. So I like to be ready to play at a moments notice.

Sorry, on my phone. I thought I posted them as such. I'll attempt to edit them later.

All flat panel TVs suffer from input lag...just depends how much. Yes, it is quite bad on this TV if you have the Auto Motion stuff turned on. I found the input lag apparent when playing online only. It is no worse than what is already found on the PSN. Took a little adjustment on Xbox live but it's okay now.
 
What desk and chair is this? Looks awesome.

Herman Miller Embody + Envelop, found a local authorized re-seller who goes way below whats listed on the website so it was pretty good, found the place from RFD.

The chair was $798 from $1241 and desk was $580 from $960.

Just edit your post and put the pictures in quote tags. It's screwing this page up. :/

Interesting, I work for the US government and after our recent ergonomic assessment they started offering up the Embody for folks with issues. They used to bring in Aerons. And since all the budget paperwork goes through me I can see that the government pays quite a bit more than $1241. Guarantees and take-backs are built into the cost, though.

I like your setup, but you should attempt to wrap it in quotes again.
 
Can a mod please put those massive images in quote tags? It seems the OP can't be bothered to edit his original post, despite being active since.

Mods can confirm my many attempts to fix on my part.

I'm away on business, so only had access to fix with phone. Issues with coding couldn't seem to be adjusted easily.

Regardless sorry for the terrible inconvenience.

About as much as you openly wish to be an asshole.

That's an interesting attitude. Your massive images were totally fucking up the formatting of the whole page for several days, that's why a few people requested you either edit your post, or for a mod to do it for you. It wasn't an unreasonable request. It appeared that you had abandoned this thread, because you had been active elsewhere on the forums since posting the images.

For future reference, you can just edit your image tags with [QUOTE*] [/QUOTE*] at the beginning and end (ignore the *).
 
Gaf always has obscenely large images posted here so to save myself the trouble I just got a script that resizes all images that are above a certain widthxheight and I couldn't be happier

If wanting you to fix your shit and get a slap on the wrists makes me an asshole, fine.

Since you were posting elsewhere you also could've taken a second to post an update here saying you were talking to a mod about fixing it. Notions of flakiness and douchbaggery would've been curbed.
 
Hey kids! I just moved to my new apartment and i negotiated a Game room with the missus so this is my work in progress, i would love ideas for wall decoration!

Main setup:
LG 55" LED 3DTV, PS3, PULSE Elites...



Wall directly in front of the TV... Most comfortable couch on earth:

Other wall in serious need of some spice

ceiling shot:

A nice colourful carpet in the center of the room would do wonders. Also, some art to go above that couch.
 
the carpet is definitely on my to do list, as for the Art i would love some specific ideas, im not exactly the creative type hahaha

Some other GAFfer recommended this site to me, it has some very cool artists and decent prices.

Just get them framed properly, that's key.

I really want this Totoro one some day. Maybe after I move.

Mounts for my center channel came today.
*snip

That's actually exactly what I have been looking for lately. I did a quick browse of ergotron's site, but didn't see anything for center channel mounts... Would you mind linking to the page of the product that you used?

Edit: Little more looking around, is that possibly a modified version of this guy?
 
Here's my gaming set up after moving away from my old home :)

Up next I made up a plan to get a black ikea galant 80x160cm to replace the current cheap white 60x120 desk, reuse it to make an L type set up, and eventually replace that with a matching 60x120 galant. The 60x120 section will have my PC sitting on it and I'm planning on using it for a VR set up so I can turn and use a Rift with a dedicated HOTAS and kb/m

How is the Embody? I use an Eames aluminum group chair, but I was thinking of switching to a high backed chair. Everyone I know uses either an Aeron or an Eames so I haven't heard anything from people using an Embody for longer than a few minutes.


Also RFD?

If you're going to source a table from ikea, I would suggest a Gerton or Vika Furuskog table top. Use a stain (if you want a different/deeper color) and wood wax/polish (necessary) on the wood and it will be better than the particleboard based Galant.

Other than that, you're planned set up sounds great.
