Overview
Except for the Laptops & web server, I built all of these rigs from the ground up! If you're a Gamer nerd then hopefully you will enjoy some of the many details. I go into some of these details for those of you thinking of getting into streaming too. You do not need all of this equipment, but you're welcome to use this as a template for your studio!Current Studio
New Studio has been a work in progress. Photos and Info will be updated here someday!

Old Studio
My old studio located in Saint Petersburg, FL. Notice the old sixara.com website on the monitors? I even see older EVGA software for my older video cards!
