I don't have much of a display my collection is stored on one shelving unit, and inside and outside an old entertainment center, some of my things are a mess inside two plastic containers, my collection is stored and sorted by Genre in other words I can just grab a game right away and play what ever kind of game I'm in the mood for. This kind of setup keeps me from staring at my collection for hours in order to find something to play, I play whatever I want to play for example if I want to play a first person shooter I know exactly where to find one without delay.

I highly recommend more of you sort by genre instead of only sorting by alphabetical order, you can still sort by consoles but I'd put all genres in one area so you can find a game for whatever you are in the mood for. Also I have certain series I like to keep together like my Halo related game collection is all in one small crate, in order of story.

White cut out paper is in on my shelves and collection cabinets that tells me what kind of games and genres are stored where,

My setups haven't been in display shape since we got this second stupid cat.  All of my stuff is barricaded because she'll go dig back and unplug stuff.  I just yesterday went and actually packed away all but my PS2/PS3/360 in the room with non-modern stuff, mostly to make room for PS4/X1 to move into that room, but also realizing that there is absolutely no point having anything hooked up.  I never play and I can't even see the stuff because of this damned cat.

This damned cat that has taught my other cat the terrible ways of this new cat.

I hate cats.

Here are the specs for my gaming computer:

Elite
OS: Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64
Board: Asus H110M-C
CPU: Intel Core i7-7700 3.6 GHz
RAM: 32 GB DDR4 (2x 16 GB G.Skill F4-2133C15-16GIS)
Video: Sapphire Radeon RX 580 8 GB
Audio: Creative SoundBlaster Audigy Gold
HDD:
- 500 GB Crucial CT500MX (SATA SSD)
- 1 TB Seagate ST1000DM (SATA)
- 1 TB Western Digital WD10EZEX (SATA
ODD: Lite-On iHAS124 DVD+/-RW
Chassis: Chenbro SR-105
PSU: Thermaltake TR2 Gold 500W
Monitor: 22" 16:9 Asus
Keyboard: Microsoft Wired Keyboard 400
Mouse: Microsoft Wheel Mouse Optical v1.1A
Speakers: Creative Inspire 5100
Input:
- Xbox 360 Wired Controller
- X-Series PS2 to USB adapter -> Sony DualShock 2 Analog Controller SCPH-10010 (clear blue)

I do not know where the box for this monitor is to get the model. The model is on the back but it is in Chinese. It connects to the computer with DVI. The computer is also connected to my HD TV with HDMI so I can kick back on the couch and watch videos.

The computer is named Elite because the chassis came from a now-closed company that sold computers branded Elite. So it still has that badge on it. The chassis being SR105 is a pedestal server chassis and this particular one used to house that company's Exchange Server.
