It's alright.

Your power company must love you! hehe but that aside you got pretty decent setup.

Not sure why 4 monitors but you do you :p. Looks like a good fun setup don't really see the overkill part from the amount of monitors and that they don't really seem to be used all at once. The system is pretty decent nothing amazing just a good computer with a lot of random storage :p.

I like it my man, look like you need a bigger desk for all those monitors haha. Hope you get well soon

I did ok with 2, even better with 3. 4 is just for fun basically as the 4th literally only displays discord.

the only monitor that would sell for enough is the main monitor  the others are really cheap ones or old ones.
