The Cherry On Top

TheNight

So I am about to finish up my PC build, I have mouse, keyboard monitor etc, I want something to add to my setup without cramming up my area. Any suggestions for any tech related stuff? I was thinking of buying a USB Hub but I dont know. Also it would be nice if it was cheap and had use to it. Thanks.

 

Or what do my fellow forum readers have on their setups to just "finish it off"?

Decent headphone stand/holder ... 

That would actually be a good idea considering right now I use the end of my bed to hold my headphones. Thanks

Mount your screens if you haven't already. Decent mounts are under 40$ for dual monitors, single monitor clamp mounts can be had for 20$

muh specs 

Gaming and HTPC (reparations)- ASUS 1080, MSI X99A SLI Plus, 5820k- 4.5GHz @ 1.25v, asetek based 360mm AIO, RM 1000x, 16GB memory, 750D with front USB 2.0 replaced with 3.0  ports, 2 250GB 850 EVOs in Raid 0 (why not, only has games on it), some hard drives

Screens- Acer preditor XB241H (1080p, 144Hz Gsync), LG 1080p ultrawide, (all mounted) directly wired to TV in other room

Stuff- k70 with reds, steel series rival, g13, full desk covering mouse mat

All parts black

Workstation(desk)- 3770k, 970 reference, 16GB of some crucial memory, a motherboard of some kind I don't remember, Micomsoft SC-512N1-L/DVI, CM Storm Trooper (It's got a handle, can you handle that?), 240mm Asetek based AIO, Crucial M550 256GB (upgrade soon), some hard drives, disc drives, and hot swap bays

My tip is to use a toilet paper holder as a headphone stand xD
