The computer itself isn't anything special but it's still able to run Crysis smoothly with max settings at 1920x1080 and 4xAA.

Intel Core i5-750 @ 3.8GHz processor
ATI 5850 graphics card
4GB Corsair XMS3 RAM

Here's an old photo showing the rear speakers aswell. The sub woofer I'm using is a Q Acoustics 1000Si.

The 1000Ci center speaker that you can see in this old picture has now been replaced with a regular 1010i speaker to match the other four. The reason I swapped it was because the 1000Ci is designed to give clear dialogue in movies but I wanted to use five identical 1010i speakers because it gives better integration which seems to work better for the sound effects you get in games.

I'm really just stalking Adam to see who all he thanks but that is a nicely laid out audio set up as Westcott said. You made 5.1 happen! I'm stuck on stereo so it's kinda making me drool. Well done! :)
