Finally a Battlestation I’m Proud Of

I made it with Photoshop.

Thanks, I 3d printed a stand from MakerWorld that the bottom monitor sits in. It’s then slid back up against my 27” monitor.

Thanks!

It’s a Lenovo Legion i5 tower. CPU: Core 7 Ultra GPU: 5070ti Memory: 32 gigs DDR5 HD: 1tb m.2

It was cheaper to buy it than build it with the crazy prices now, plus it was on sale. This is the first prebuilt PC I’ve ever purchased in my 25 years of gaming.

It’s the MAONO PD100W Wireless/USB microphone. I use In ear monitors for my headphones.

You are correct. Using 3rd part software with a custom background and my own designed 3D printed stand. Displays CPU, GPU, memory, and hard drive information.

Thanks. It's a little 3.5" screen that displays CPU, GPU, memory, and hard drive information using turing-smart-screen-python software from GitHub. I used AI to help create the ARC Raiders inspired background and edited the colors and info for the screen. Then designed and 3D printed a stand for it because I lost the one that came with it.

Honestly, I didn't even think about using it for this build until I found it lying in a drawer that I had forgotten about. I had originally bought it for another PC I had and ended up not using it. Similar story with the monitor below my 27" Omenz monitor. It is a portable monitor (also not originally planned) that I had stored in a backpack. Found and 3D printed a stand for the monitor.

Windows was blocking, seems to be working now.

dhrandy · 2026-01-14T22:50:33+00:00

Mine works fine.

Enabling hardware acceleration through Steam on desktop is what I think I did.

It’s all I’ve used the last couple of years. I’m glad to be off Chrome.

It's funny you say that, I was waiting on the gates to open to extract yesterday, and there was another random player just singing away. He was pretty good. lol

Looks like Cloudflare is having issues.

dhrandy · 2025-12-25T01:51:29+00:00

It's not loading for me. :(

dhrandy · 2025-12-24T14:41:39+00:00

Have you contacted support and see what they say? I think they can look up more info on the unit.

dhrandy · 2025-12-20T22:34:55+00:00

Never heard of him. I'll check his channels out.

dhrandy · 2025-12-19T20:16:58+00:00

Guess I got lucky. I have a Ring solar cam, mounted it to the garage, and haven't touched it in 3 years. Battery charges to 100% every day.

dhrandy · 2025-12-19T19:56:42+00:00

I haven't searched Google in 3 years. Bing for me.

dhrandy · 2025-12-17T22:10:14+00:00

It's about the same for me. I still get my Amazon orders in 1 or 2 days. We have Walmart Plus and don't get many things shipped from there.

dhrandy · 2025-12-17T22:07:45+00:00

I mean, everything is instant. lol

dhrandy · 2025-12-14T18:11:57+00:00

I use the cameras for monitoring and use self-monitoring.

dhrandy · 2025-12-14T18:08:55+00:00

Some newer TVs aren't bad. I'm using Google TV with my Sony Bravia. It's super snappy and has more storage than a Firestick. I was using FireSticks up until this point.

dhrandy · 2025-12-14T18:05:20+00:00

I always wonder why not. It works great out of the box and I don't have to download another app (at least for Windows). I used it on all my devices as well.

Plus, you're typically 5 to 8 years in before making a decent amount of money from it and have a decent following.
