Show off your desk setup, I would like to see it :D

[Hi P]

I've seen some videos with cool / relaxing / amazing Desktop workspaces and I was wondering if any of you want to show off the whole setup

 

I'm trying to gather ideas since I want to change my messy workspace into something relaxing, looking into ambiance lights, wooden desk and all that!

First time hard tubing too. Definitely going to order more fittings for the next upgrade in 5 years . Some components are redundant or can easily be swapped from either PC as I have had a whole PC die on me in the middle of a tournament . Some components will last me much longer such as the case, the radiators, power supply, water fittings, pump/blocks etc. With AM5 being the new platform I should have some upgrades hopefully 2 more generations like the previous Ryzen processor series being backwards compatible. However I didn't realize that the 2nd x16 slot on the $1000 motherboard is physical x16 but actually x8. Only the first x16 slot is x16 so that part actually sucks a lot. You can't switch which slot to use in the bios only to go down from x16 and x8 to x8 and x4 . So point of reference wait for more motherboards that have more that 24 lanes of PCIE to share between all the slots.

[Hi P]

@sirius300zx96Nice setup dude! I think your desk space is pretty similar to my current and I have space issues, have you thought about upgrading it?

 

@HM-2 That's so beautiful omg, out of topic question but did you ever get used to two monitors? I've had my dual setup for a year and a half or so, and 90% of the time I use my left monitor

My left monitor is mostly for my work laptop, which is in a hidden dock under my desk.

[TheGeekno72]

 

I move between two places, only things that stay are the screens and desk mats, everything else goes around with me in a cargo backpack (no, not an LTT one, I don't have that kind of money despite having good gear lmao)

 

PS5, laptop, headset, mouse, controller, powerbrick/cables, everything goes and I move every 10 days or so

I have minimalist cable management so I just have one braid of cable going to the power strip and a few cables that I had in double also stay in their spot so I just have to drop the item and plug it, everything setup.packed under 3mn !

 

(yes it's the same PS5, I just dbrand'd it and didn't have a more recent pic of that place with the new kit on it)

@Hi P I can upgrade PCs and others but I cannot upgrade my room to have a bigger desk, so unfortunately no. It would be great if I could though.

I can picture this setup being uselessly but delightfully blazingly fast, lmao

The load times must be hella damn snappy

May I ask about your pool setups ? RAID ? UnRAID ? What do you use them and all that server processing power/RAM for too ?

That's pretty cool You could also buy another pair of cables so that you don't have to move those, only plug-in stuff

@RollinLowerNice setup you've got, I love the lighting and the wooden desk too, I'm building something similar

oh I already have cables in double, just not a second powerbrick for my laptop, those are at least 150+ and basically impossible to find in stock somehow
