Requirments - 

 

 - Under $200 USD

 - Black (or Very Dark)

 - Big Size (Big enough for a 34" mousepad, and a monitor mount for a ultrawide with some extra room)

 - L - Shaped (Not a must, but would be nice :))

 - "Modern" looking

 

Thanks guys and gals!

I spent a couple weeks in a similar desk-searching situation, and this was one of the options I considered. http://www.amazon.com/Flash-Furniture-Laminated-L-Shape-Pedestal/dp/B00VTQT3C0/ref=sr_1_2?s=furniture&ie=UTF8&qid=1447459942&sr=1-2&keywords=flash+furniture+l-shaped+desk

 

You're not going to get super great quality for under $200, but the reviews there seem okay. IKEA is a good place to check, as somebody above mentioned, but keep in mind that if you don't live near one, the shipping costs on their desks are more expensive than the desks themselves.

I used an ikea desk. It's big, cheap, and sturdy. You can add cabinets as legs and stuff You can see my setup on my build log (couple posts down the OP). Although, if you don't live near an IKEA just go with the desk that @Scionyde suggested

It's fantastic! It's way cheaper than buying an already built desk! :)
