What I am working for.

Razer Imperator Gaming Mouse - $90
Sherwood 2 Way Speakers - $150
New Computer Chair - $200+
New DESK!!! - Will have to spend upwards of $550 To find what I am looking for.

What else should I save up for to Make my "Cave" Look better?

I will update as I find what I am looking for!

 

Get the desk first, everything else can wait, you need the space before you start buying stuff.

 

(google tv) best invention ever made, i would put it above all the rest of the monitors, mounted on the wall.

 

very nice setup, i picked up a 32inch tv this weekend which im using as a moniter, it is amazing, the picture is great it's slim and doesn't let off as much heat as my old one did also only payed £155 for it aswell XD

 

Holy batshit you got ripped on that PC if you're being serious about the price. You could have built a system with a 2600K at the center + probably GTX 590 maybe even 580 SLI at that price. Not hatin' or anything, just saying

Other than that not bad. The desk is not really my taste though. Tbh if you think you have the skills, build your own. Assuming you already have the basic tools needed you can get an AWESOME desk built for like $200-$250. If that fails, go around to local thrift stores. You'd be surprised at some of the gems that are hiding in there. I got mine at one for $40, and it's pretty damn nice (Ikea Jerker, not my pic but it's that desk set in that basic configuration)

Judging by the case it's a prebuilt PC right? HP if I'm not mistaken? Honestly I wouldn't even bother with getting another case for a prebuilt computer unless there's some kind of size restraint, like you want a graphics card that is too big for that case or something. No offense again but it just seems like trying to polish a turd, to put it bluntly.

 

add an xbox/ps3 in there - then its teh nuts XD

 

there already is a ps3...

 

im not good at buildibg them tryed it befor but waisted my time, i need to get a bigger case going to add another fan, blue ray/dvd burner and a few of the usb ports dont work so i need to replace them,

 

Interesting, my rooms a mess so I won't post, but mine's nothing special.

 

You should had build your own computer. You would had save a lot.

 

Not good at building what, desks? Understandable. I'd probably make some half retarded looking desk.. no shame.

As for the case if you're just going to be adding a case fan that's hardly a reason to drop good money on a case imo. Unless it's pointed like RIGHT at something, case fans generally don't help THAT much. Not enough enough to justify a whole new case imo. And bluray? You have a PS3 for watching them, burning them might be a concern I guess though. As for USB ports not working... that's unfortunate, but again you can buy things to replace them for like next to nothing :/

Not trying to discourage you from doing it if you really want to, just saying those are all pretty easy fixes. Feel free if you want to for other reasons.

 

the desk i can do thats no prob but i am jjust getting used to computers so yeah.

As for new case here in aus my computer over heats now that its summer, so i really need to ad some fans and an alarm when it over heats

 

If you are looking at buying a new case, you do realise you'll have to build the computer again in the new case, right? If you have the ability to build a PC, why didn't you do it in the first place? If you're going to pay a professional to do it, expect it to cost at least another $50

 

My mates doing it for me, He already has the fans to put in just looking for a good case now.

 

$1800 for the tower you have is ridiculously overpriced, but nice set-up nevertheless

 

Well, at the time I didnt really want to waist my time on making a computer, and $1800 Is a good price if you want to buy anything in Aus.

When I was in the UK I bought a Laptop for 250 Pound (About $500) I come over here and it was $850 Same laptop.

 

Lol, the UK is overpriced as it is, in comparison to the US anyway.

 

Really? Thats probs why every one thinks i Spent way to much, When thats just the going price for a good computer over here.
