So after putting it off for the past 6 months, I finally cleaned out our back room so I could move myself along with my computer out of the living room haha. It's soo much better being in here rather then out in the living room. Got a 42" Sanyo DP42848 for free, friends roomate thought it was broken when it wasn't, just had to remove some aluminum inside the TV that was messing with the backlight inverters. 
 
On another note, does anyone know of a decent sound system for around $150 for computers? I would love to get a half decent sounding sound system set up in here for when I watch movies.
 

 


My Laptop (GE63VR-7RF):
-7700HQ.
-16GB RAM.
-GTX 1070.
-128GB SSD.
-1X 1TB 7200 spinny drive.

    Well the only room i have is at the end of the table where the TV is, the rest of the room is full of junk. Until my mom and bro get out to clean the back shed it's gonna have to stay like this, but tbh, I don't need, or want any more room. It keeps my mom off my back, and my out of her hair so it's a win/win.

    Believe me these for 170$ Microlab are excellent, they sound good, fit in all room because classic look and they are not too expensive.
    I will buy them but not before mine 9 years old Creative T5900 die.

    Much expensive Logitech are not so much better at all.
    Under 200$ you can't find something special and it's not necessary for games and every day.
    Some 100$ sound card and such system are OK for gaming.

    I've been wanting that z906 for a long while. You think they gonna release a new version anytime soon?


    As to the cave, I'd just reorganize some of it to actually have a corner, put some shelves up and decor. Even a man cave plaque

    I'd love a sound system but my wife said 'no' so I have to stick to good stereo headphones

    Yeaaa. My gf said no to the z906 sayin its too powerful, when its her that plays super loud music and loves bose speakers lol. Which we do have for the TV.
    I guess its all the boom boom pew pew pew sounds she doesn't want to hear lol. Though we watch a fair share of movies n shows on the computer.
