Not necessarily in that order. Here is my small, humble setup.

Started folding yesterday using both the PC and the Macbook Pro. Even though the Macbook only gets around 1000+ PPD it still adds up! PC gets around 25k using CPU and GPU. 2500k (stock speed for now) and GTX 460 at 850MHz. I have a KVM switch so I can swap my monitor, keyboard and mouse when I press the little button to the left of the macbook. It's so useful! The PC is under the desk to the far left. You can just about see it on the second picture. Follow the link in my signature to see pictures of my rig! I use the Macbook with Logic to create and record music. I use the PC for folding and gaming.

Oh yea, the macbook is raised up on two pieces of foam at each side to help keep it cooler.

Not sure what I'm supposed to say so, enjoy

EDIT: I forgot to mention what the speakers are, etc. The speakers are Mackie MR5 MK2s, middle interface is a Line 6 UX2, other interface is an Audio 4 DJ (so I can listen to vinyl). Looking to upgrade the UX2 to a Saffire Pro 40 when I go to uni!

Lovely set up mate. Very neat and to the point! i'm envious of your sound set up

Edit: got any pics of the rig?

 

[IsaacJDean]

Thanks a lot. I do love my speakers! Great value for money, £300 in total.

Yea, pictures are in my sig

Those speakers looks awesome. I'm not an audiophile by any stretch of the imagination, but i do love my music. Great work area you have going - wish mine was half as tidy

Also, welcome to the folding team

 

[IsaacJDean]

I imagine a lot of audiophiles would pull their noses up at these speakers but they do the job

It doesn't always stay that tidy haha. Give it a couple of days and it'll a mess. Cheers, loving it so far

Welcome to the forums and what a lovely setup you have there. It is very nice and clean

 

[AverageNinja]

Omg, you're getting so many points!

I'm folding on a ps3 and get about 250Points per WU ~ maximum of 1000PPD

 

[IsaacJDean]

Haha, all thanks to the 2500k and GTX 460. Really surprised at how much progress my modest little rig has gotten me!

I have the Mackie MR8 MKII's and they are really good! They do color sound a more then my Adam's though, but I use the MK8's for gaming mostly so it's great and bass heavy. More like a HiFi Speaker. The Adams are for Protools and Avid MCP mostly.

Very nice setup

 

[Dandaman91]

Nice setup mate, very tidy and I like how your keybaord goes under the raised part to give you more space

Sweet setup, you just encouraged me to post my Work / Game area.
