I got a bed from Ikea that is like the top half of a bunk bed and then the bottom half is a desk so when I'm up late night gaming or coding I can just climb right up to sleep. Only good thing Ikea has ever made.

while were at it anybody now of a good monitor that won't break the bank?

 

Dell u2312HM?

So... If Jesus had the gold, would he buy himself out instead of waiting 3 days for the respawn?

Oh wow that is pretty awesome for the price. The adjustable height is a major plus to do my height

 

Yup best IPS 1080p closing in 200$ and I really wouldn't get better monitor unless aiming for 1440p (which is a lot more expensive).

 

This one has everything you need and is a great construction-wise.

You just said pretty much the opposite of Ikea... (in my opinion)

Depends on what you get. They have a large range from flimsy and weak to sturdy and nice desks.

do they make one in 24 or higher?

 

Why'd you need 24" or higher? You won't notice 23" vs 24" really. And the bigger the monitor the more stretched out are the pixels. 1080p looks bad at 27" in my opinion. at 23-24" it's ideal.

 

You could try to check out U2412M if you wanted but it's 1920x1200 not 1080p.

what's the point of the 3.0 usb's on the monitor?

so say you are plugging a phone or camera in instead of plugging it into the back of the case you can do that. My monitor has it and I like for when i'm in a rush for say like grabbing media for my phone, so think of it like front io.

Lol I had that exact desk. Was $30 at Walmart, I finally got rid of it (gave to a friend) and I bought a $5 desk at a thrift store.
