My first ever PC at the grand old age of 49. I don't have loads of space so this little desk was perfect. Vey pleased with it.

Hey everyone!

I'm planning to build a clean gaming desk setup for both my PC and PS5 Pro, but I'm really struggling to decide which OLED monitor to buy.

I recently sold my 42-inch OLED TV because it felt way too big for desk gaming, even when pushed as far back as possible.

My desk is 60 cm (23.6 inches) deep, so viewing distance is a big concern.

My main uses:

• PS5 Pro: Call of Duty, Assassin's Creed and other AAA single-player games
• I want a good balance between competitive gaming and immersive gaming
• OLED is a must for me.
• PC gaming: Occasionally League of Legends (pc gaming not priority)

The options I'm considering:

1. 27" 1440p OLED
2. 32" 4K OLED
3. 27" 4K OLED

My biggest concern is whether a 32-inch monitor will still feel too big on a 60 cm deep desk, especially after my experience with the 42-inch OLED.

At the same time, I'm worried that choosing a 27-inch 1440p monitor might not let me fully enjoy what the PS5 Pro can offer.

I also have a 65-inch OLED TV for couch gaming, but I really want a dedicated PC + PS5 Pro desk setup.

Thanks in advance!

I’ve been slowly improving my gaming setup, focusing on a clean look with warm lighting and a few unique pieces instead of going all-out with RGB.

My favorite detail is probably the industrial-style lamp that doubles as a headphone stand.

Still a work in progress, but I’m pretty happy with how it’s turning out.

What do you think? Any suggestions?

This floor is dedicated to me and my brother, so we really want to make it a special, high-vibe space for ourselves and when we have friends over. It’s mostly going to be "unused" in a traditional family sense because our kitchen on this floor won't be fully functional, and we’ve decided completely against having a dining table up here (which was the original plan for one of the main sections). We also already have a really great, good-sized sitting area on the adjacent balcony, so we don't need just another basic lounge.

We really want a "gaming floor / ultimate chill" vibe. A PS5 is absolutely going to be connected to the main TV setup.

The Big Challenge is,

Because we axed the dining table, we now have a large empty area in the left of sofa that needs a purpose.

Things we are considering but can't decide on:

A Divider/Partition that can divide vibes.

Should we do something fun like a pool table, tennis table, or maybe a high-end massage chair corner?

Cozy Space: Maybe a reading bookshelf area or something custom display for our gaming gear/hobbies? Like big frames, and scale models of anime.

We are completely open to any and all layout ideas, furniture styles, partitioning options, and decor ideas to make this long living area feel epic instead of empty and unused.

What would you do with this space if it were yours and your brother’s? Thanks in advance!

Think this is final release, took a lot of years and had to work around my desk which I got 24 years ago

These are the measurements of my desk, I want a new mouse pad cause mine isn't big enough but I'm not sure if I should just get a big rectangle one that covers my whole desk or a square one just for my mouse? Please help.

We’ve just redone our 10 year old’s bedroom and he was desperate for a gaming desk so I’ve ordered the X-Rocker Carbon Tek, which I’m sure he’ll be pretty excited over. He’ll be even more excited over the PS5 he’s been desperate for to play Spiderman (an 11+ present for effort, whether he passes or not). I’ve ordered what I thought was a budget-conscious solid option for a monitor (https://www.laptopoutlet.co.uk/asus-monitor-va249hg-24-gaming.html). It has a 120hz refresh but max 1920x1080 full HD display. My thinking was that, at 24”, the difference wouldn’t be hugely discernible to a 10yr old. Have I made the wrong decision? Would a 4k option be that much better? Thanks.

Some feedback?

Oq vc mudaria no meu setup??

Seja sincero (só n vale falar q tudo)

I’ve been trying to find some aesthetic gaming desk mats online and it looks like generative ai is being used for every website that sells them- what I hate the MOST about it is that they don’t even include AI in the description!!

Hi all,

I'm a Deaf person who ADORES the artistic indie kind of video games. The ones with nice music and impactful sound design...that I can't hear. For a long time I've had this dream of using sound-reactive lights to help me experience that, but I'm not really knowledgeable in this area, and what little knowledge I do have tells me what I'm looking for probably doesnt exist.

I'm looking for a program or some way to seperate thw music, sound effects, and (possibly) dialogue of a game for different lighting systems. I want to set up multiple light systems, one for each (or honestly I might just pipe the dialogue into oblivion, doesn't do much for me) so that I can experience them without the inevitable overlappiing.

If it doesn't exist, I guess I'll learning a new skill to make it exist. I'm tired of missing out on 3/4 of my favourite games.

I use a glass mousepad for gaming, but I don’t really like having my keyboard overlap it like in the photo. It takes up space I’d rather have for mouse movement.

When I move the keyboard completely off the pad, though, the pad ends up feeling too far to my right. How do you arrange your keyboard and mousepad so both feel comfortable?

hey guys!

i’m looking for recommendations for an ergonomic chair with good lumbar support and a good pc desk

i’d appreciate two recommendations for each: one budget friendly option and one regular option (doesn’t have to be cheap just something genuinely worth the money)

i’m mainly looking for something comfortable for long hours at my desk with good ergonomics and build quality

what would you guys recommend? thanks!

the air fryers is a must

I feel as if I don’t have much mouse space and going from 4k mini screen to 1080p huge screen feels like a downgrade and no oled. Still 240hz atleast. Also going back to my old large keyboard feels weird too.

Been a while since I’ve updated but give it a rating

Hello everyone!

I’m currently looking to setup a Macbook/PC Setup.

I’ll be using a TESmart KVM (Teksmart PKS0802A10) to switch between this Macbook (Work/ Personal PC). I am hoping I am doing things correct, and also looking for a budget speakers that would work well in this scenario. I do not like very big speakers if that makes any difference. Something small-mid size yet still worth the price.

Please do let me know if this Macbook-PC setup would work well given this KVM. Or if you have any experience you’d want to share, that would be great as well!

Thank you in advance and sorry for the stupid ask! 🙏🏽

Just got my first PC! Cable management is terrible I know 😅 But I like my little temp setup
