Improvements to my setup?

[xDylanio]

I didn't know where to post this

 

Basically i want to improve my setup, not my components but my actual room/setup, for example a headphone hanger. Please include links. Preferably things under $50, but anything that can help my setup

- open your windows

- clean your room

- zip ties for cable management 

- try to find a bigger used table on craigslist or another local site.

You could have a better desk but the most important in my opinion is keeping you case up like you did so less dust reaches it, do not forget to clean it weekly since it'll still accumulate dust up there regardless

What should I buy to clean it? Certain tools? Links are appreciated, do you have a desk that could match the room, i'm looking for an "L" shaped desk

i actually found that rolls of double sided velcro (as in one side is hook, other side is loop) are pretty cheap, and they'd allow you to add and remove cables without needing to reach for the back of zip ties.

that is a good option, i was thinking of cost, zip ties are cheap and plentiful.

A bigger desk would definitely be nice, I could recommend the Micke Desk From Ikea It is a bit above your price range at 79$but it's a great option. For a headphone stand, I can recommend the Satechi Aluminum USB 3.0 Headphone Stand.

they are, but i'm thinking of future-resistance and user friendliness, and that IMO gladly makes up for going slightly more expensive velcro.

 

also, velcro looks more clean, zip ties just have this "garage bodge" look to them.

I used to use a banana stand but I find the usb ports to be pretty useful

Measure how much room you have and look around, take advantage of the space you have.

Nice case by the way, i have the same

Those compressed air thingys are great, they cost some but you can use it solely for the keyboard and inside case, it's a good investment
