I’m going to buy 2 27” identical curved monitors. And when I do the flat one on the side will be taken down. And the two new ones will be added. One on either side vertically. Just posting here because I’m very proud of how far this has come. And I’m very grateful to my wife for being supportive of my hobbies and not only being supportive but being encouraging that I take each next step. I’m one of those people that I hate buying things for myself. And it’s because I always have that thought process of “this money could be going to buying her something nice, or the kids something nice” but she always encourages me to get myself something here and there. This took Awhile to get to this point. Did it piece by piece. Just very proud of it and happy with the way it’s turning out. Hope you like it.

It’s still a work in progress but I’ve had decent progress. considering I’m on a tight budget.

I’d like to know what you think and any if you have any questions. I’m planning to add some figurines on the space under the monitors. And maybe a picture frame or two

(Yes my table is really small.. it’s an old dining table that I wrapped with wallpaper…)

Please don't mind the clutter! We are week 2 in a new home and we are still in the midst of unpacking! We finally have a home that has space for a gaming room! Problem is, now that we have room for it, we have no clue what to do with it.

I thrifted an antique roll-top desk that has always been a dream of mine to have. I had the bright idea of turning it into my gaming desk; however, as you can see, the monitor doesn't fit within the roll-top.

I'm wondering if you geniuses can help me brainstorm a way to make my monitor work here. Or if I possibly just need a different monitor altogether.

Anyone know of any cool wall-mounts that can allow for my monitor to extend and lower a significant distance from the wall? Or any cool mounts that can maybe be anchored to the roll-top shelf itself and then be lowered?

I have no clue how to make this work or if this is just gonna be an eyesore altogether!

This is my families old office room, and I kept some of their flare. The plant and drapes (my mom’s) is kind of a comfort. All of the anime is mine but the Minnesota Twins memorabilia, that belonged to my father who passed a few years ago. I feel like home here, and if I’m being honest, I feel safe

Even if I go negative af in whatever I’m playing 😎

I have a dope milwaukeee neon clock bc I sell electrical equipment for electricians. And the happy hour sign is from my wife ❤️

PS. I’m a massive Halo fan. Books and games.

Console player until I get a desktop in future, would like some tips on what I can add, remove ect

Id like more space, maybe a monitor arm and relocate the console?

Salve a tutti ho 24 anni, la postazione è ancora in fase di sviluppo, manca tanta roba ancora, Dopo anni ed anni di idrualico, e con tanti sacrifici finalmente sto finendo il mio angolo di paradiso dove voglio anche iniziare a studiare cybersecurty ecc lasciando il lavoro da idrualico. Per ora davvero non è ancora finito perché manca il tappeto nuovo, i due monitor, scheda madre/video ed SSD per il PC, mic webcam e l'altra scrivania angolare ed altri quadri ecc. Ma sono davvero emozionata di tutto ciò, spero di riuscire a farcela entro agosto a finire tutto.

Update from my first setup post.

I actually listened to y’all this time 😭 made some changes and it’s way better now. Got the monitors off the desk with a mount and cleaned up all the wires with a tray + mesh cable sleeves, so there’s way more space now.

Still don’t have a dedicated room so I’m working with what I got, but it’s finally starting to feel how I wanted.

Appreciate the advice fr — this setup is staying like this for a while 🔥
