then it makes no difference in cooling as long as the vents arent blocked and assuming the cables are long enough

So I guess the only difference would be that I would have to clean it more often if it's on the floor, I see

Good luck cleaning inside your PSU, it's death trap, literally. Do your self a favor and find someway to at least elevate it a foot above the floor.

how's the Huion tablet display? does it work on photoshop?

I would class Huion directly under Wacom in terms of best Pen Displays.

 

I've had the chance to try out a few and they are fantastic for the price

it's pretty decent. it works better then a pad tablet but i'm assuming that a cintiq would work better

my complaints are that the colors are bad (worse then all my other monitors) not a big deal though, the textures of the screen are slightly different in spots (a screen protector would fix it and it normally comes with one but i bought this one used) and the alignemnt of the pen at the edges of the screen is a little off 

but overall i bought it for $250 used and for that i would say that it was worth it

i use it mostly for adobe animate cc but i have used it in paint tool sai and photoshop before

Because people tread on the floor, and the dust and other debris get's knocked off the table onto the floor, believe me, it usually makes a huge difference.

it also comes to a very practical question, how often do you vacuum the floor vs clean PC desk

hmm, good good. maybe I'll start recommending these to people who're starting out on drawing now and can't shell out for the Wacom tax ?

my pad tablet broke and i saw this one used and it was a good deal. didn't cost that much more then a good pad tablet. so i bought it

i've tried, my 15.6" laptop doesn't fit. 

Well the more I look at your setup the more I don't get why you putted ultra wide while you could do this. For more screen real estate, you know.

True, but due to how a home is usually built and used, you would need to clean the floor significantly more as the floor usually gets soiled at a greater rate.

for me mostly on the desk, but that's becoming a problem. my pc is kinda large (because dual-socket motherboard) and i'm thinking about getting another display. and then it will have to be on the floor.

Oh..last question, as you have 60hz monitor(S) and 144hz while you're gaming, and alt+tab out of a game to use some of the other screens does that affect the primary (144hz) screen or everything runs as it should. 
What I mean by does it affect is for example: Changing your screen from 144 to 60hz (When you alt tab to other screen), visualising 60 hz rather than 144 as long as all of the other screens are simultaneously running etc etc.

Yeah, noise is one of my concerns too, when it's on the floor you hear it "more silently". Dual socket motherboard damn
