I'm loving it! This is so much better than my laptop. The graphics are great, no lag in Shat or Org. How did I live with one screen before?

Congrats on the new system. For others that might be interested, how many clients are you running on the one box?

[HPB]

I'm running 5. I have the main toon run off core 1, alts 1&2 run off core 2 and alts 3&4 run off core 3. I leave core 0 unhindered for browsing and whatnot. All of my clients are being run out of one WoW directory at the moment and I'm not having any problems with that. I have the 4 alts on the left screen and the main on the right. Since my screen res is an odd size (1440x900) I asked Keyclone to make a new maximizer layout for me and he did! Please note that my settup is the opposite of his since my right screen is 'screen 1' according to windows.

Here's his example screen shot:

You got the kitteh kat bonus!

I've only had two small problems with the iBUYPOWER Gamer 922TL-I and they are both common for the computer. The first was that the Hard Drive was not plugged in when it arrived from shipping. This seems to almost always happen and is common on the reviews for the computer. Easily fixed. The other issue is that the power cord is a little loose when it plugs into the power supply. There's quite a bit of wobble room. It didn't take long to figure out that the loose power cord was the reason my pc kept shutting itself down and restarting the other night. Now that I've secured that, everything is great.

You got the kitteh kat bonus!

Yeah, it didn't take long for her to get curious about the computer enough for me to get a couple of pictures of her up there investigating. I always think she's so cute. ^^

I didn't show off the tower. It looks pretty cool. I turn off the one extra LED light that sits on the bottom of the case, but it's still very bright. My sister's sleeping on the couch for a few days when she comes to visit. I hope she brings a sleep mask. This picture doesn't due it justice at all. It's a very nice looking machine.

gz, and same case as me.

That's what I thought aswell, untill I noticed the ribs on the lower front of the case & the lack of a "key tray??" on top.
Seems it's almost an exact copy of the Antec case I've got.
Ah well, the airflow should be the same, so great case

edit:
looking at some more screenshots it turns out to be a bit more different then I noticed at first
first impressions ftl

Kitteh wins!
