post here what computer you would build if money was no object that you would seriously use. Not just build and then let it collect dust in the corner. I'll start http://pcwizkidstechtalk.com/images/stories/pcwizkid/antec1200.jpg accessories LG W2453V-PF Black 24" Monitor - 2 of these. I like this monitor because it has 1920x1080 resolution and a contrast of 50000:1 and a refresh time of 2 ms. I don't really have a preference for a mouse or keyboard so I'll keep this open. parts Antec 1200 case - I like this case because it is really big and Antec has always had an amazing rating for cooling and reliability. Intel Core i7-980X Extreme Edition - Its a 6 core Intel processor that runs at 3.33 Ghz. What more is there?? ASUS P6X58D-E LGA Motherboard a nice ATX motherboard meant for awesomeness. GeForce GTX 480 video card - this video card is a really spectacular card the only problem is it runs pretty hot. I'll get some more fans for that. SONY Black 18X DVD-ROM 48X CD-ROM - I'll get two of these just for the heck of it haha. LG UH10LS20 Blu-ray Disc Combo - why not a blue ray player?? Kingston HyperX 12GB (3 x 4GB) - 12GBs of RAM haha 512 GB SSD - for super fast boot up times Seagate Barracuda 2TB hard drive - to store my stuff Antec 1200w power supply nMEDIAPC memory card reader - cameras and stuff these days use way too many types of memory cards. Logitech Z-5500 5.1 channel 505 watt speakers. Everybody needs loud speakers. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- so yeah this is my awesome PC. If there are any problems please tell me and feel free to post your own dream PC here. It would be cool to see what everyone would like.
Xbox and Media Center and very tricky and buggy. I tried to put some of my videos on my xbox before and the xbox froze. It wouldnt turn off when I pushed the button, it wouldnt respond to anything. I left it for like an hour then came back it it wanted to do a system update. I let it and after it updated none of my videos transfered and I had to re-find my PC. So I just stopped trying haha
Yeah Kinect isnt really cameras. Its like infra-red or soemthing. idk. There would have to be two of them also or how else would it know the depth of field?
How would an FPS work with kinect?? It would have to be like Starfox or something becuase the second you see a guy on your radar behind you, you're either going to be dead or blind. You cant turn around and still see the TV dude.
Yeah a couple of my friends thought it was funny that I use a xbox controller when I play fps games on my PC. But the thing is I hate using a mouse in fps games. You cant do a 360 without having to jerk the mouse then pick it up and slide it again. "Oh change your sensitivity" yeah I tried that and I couldnt snipe to save my life because if the mouse barely moved (or thought it moved) it screwed up my shot. But a mouse and keyboard for the 360 would be really cool. The keyboard already works (I use it for sending messages and stuff) but there isnt an xbox game that uses the mouse yet.
But the xbox has never been good at RTS games. C&C3 was like the best one in my opinion and it wasnt that great. When you have a keyboard with like a million buttons and a mouse, RTS games become much more fun because there are so many shortcut keys and stuff.
I think Frontlines and Team Fortress 2 is cross compatible. Not sure. Frontlines is a really fun game for the Xbox. I played a game the other day that had 65 people in it and I couldnt see any lag at all.
I keep getting this error. It works on some stuff but mostly doesnt work at all. And the stuff I do get, I cant figure out how to view it with the skin.
