Ultimate Gaming Desk

[MrPlow]

I have been searching for a new desk form my computer for a long time. Nothing fits what I want.

 

Desk Progress:

 

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------

 

I would like a mix of this: Desktop 2 and the one in the attachment, Desktop 1(standard computer desk).

 

 

My idea would to have everything of desktop 1, with some of the features form desktop 2. With added features like fan(s) for the desktop cabinet, pullout keyboard tray the entire length of the desk (possibly or at least 45 inches long) so a G27 and a keyboard can fit, a back to the desk to hide all the wires with the wire management as good as Desktop 2. Possibly 2 USB type-c, 2 USB 3.0, 2 display port, and audio jack extensions to the surface of the desk somewhere that can be connected to the computer. A nice place to put a nice surge protector (e.g. Belkin 12 outlet pivot), possible location under desktop cabinet if desk is raised from the ground.

 

My current desk is 42 inches long x 24 inches depth x 30 inches high and is too small. So guessing from the sizes i have maybe a 60 inch x 24-30 inch depth x 20 inches high desk would fit. 

 

I need room for a ATX Full Tower, av receiver, triple monitor setup or a 42 inch TV, various PC manuals and backup disks and other storage for headphones and other equipment used, keyboard and mouse obviously, gaming joystick or steering wheel. 

 

I am going to school for mechanical engineering and have attempted to model this in solidworks which is a bit of a pain in the ass. Would like for some input for a better software or improvements to the idea before I make it for real.

I'm thinking about just building one. I need one that can comfortably fit triple 27" and it's a bitch.

Just don't put your case in a cabinet with a door like in that picture. 

 

 

 

Or at least... leave the door open.. or take it off.

I think that would be misleading, since I'm not modifying anything. I'd be building something from scratch.

that desk is ugly imo, just get a simple big sturdy desk, with preferebly a hole for cables

holy crap that desk is 400USD

for some reason when i read "gaming table" I thought of card games :rolleyes:

 

if your going to start using solid works i would say you need room for dual monitors.

 

also with back up i would be running dropbox aswell

The reason why I want to build my own lol. Every desk sucks. I'd build one with features seen in those two desks I provided and just want some input on designing the perfect desk.

The desk I am working on designing is 70 inches long it can fit 2 34 inch monitors to give you an idea. which will take up a bit less space. but you should be able to fit your setup on a 70 inch (5.8 ft) table.

 

You could even mount yours to the wall and just use a smaller desk
