Desktop gaming but from bed?

MOSFAT · September 29, 2022

I hate gaming on a desk. I don't want a console, gaming laptops are out of equation with the amount of heat they generate

I got a gaming PC, and a thin monitor but I need some sort of adjustable table to put the monitor on while gaming on the bed. I also already have a wireless mouse and keyboard, thus the only wiring I will have is the ones going into the back of the monitor.

It's not that I'm lazy, I just suffer from hidradenitis suppurativa (severe) and I find it painful to sit on a desk for hours, plus my back I'm more comfortable in a bed and now that winter is here, would be cool for keeping comfortable and warm.

Any ideas?

You say adjustable table for the monitor, but what about your mouse and keyboard? I ask because if it is just for the monitor then just any monitor mount on an arm will do.

I'm thinking you can do a monitor arm mount + those bed tables that go over your legs?

Here's a few quick ideas to get you started.

Now that's what I need! Although the second link is fine too, should be able to find one of those laptop bed tables nearby. Thanks!!

Keyboard on my tummy no problem and mouse on bed beside me. (Both wireless)

I'll say this, the cables would be moved a lot, high chance of some ports being ripped, or the cable wouldn't last long, or worst case scenario, the monitor falls on you or onto the floor.

Instead of an adjustable table that could make your monitor on top of your bed, get table and an adjustable monitor arm, and get big monitors like 32"-40". Like I do, that way you could ensure your parts would be safer.
