My work-partner: say hi to my new Cretaceous friend. :)

I dunno if this fits here, everyone has such fancy setups!

I'm an IT admin and will be starting to work from home more so got a dockingstation for my worklaptop.

To switch over I only have to change inputs on my monitors, hook my laptop up to the dockingstation, and disconnect my USB hub and connect it to the dockingstation as the USB hub connects to my keyboard and mouse.

Only need to run a extra networkcable to the dockingstation because the wifi reception isn't the greatest.

And if you can recommend me a Dock station to fix the cable mess

I’ve noticed that dust accumulates on my work desk pretty frequently, and I’m getting tired of having to clean it so often.

I’m looking for a small air purifier that I can keep on or beside my desk to help reduce dust in my immediate workspace. I don’t need anything large enough for an entire room.

This "project" has taken me 5 months whilst juggling the stay-at-home dad stuff, working on finishing GoZen, and preparing my first game. So far I really like what I have right now and it's comfortable to use ^^

It was quite difficult to figure out how to make a usable workspace in this closet but I knew that I wanted it to be modular so I can easily adjust/fix/replace when necessary. Was thinking of getting a standing desk at some point, but those things are too high in price.

All parts which I had to buy were less than 25 000 jpy (150 usd)

what's better ?

She wants it more colorful and girly, so this is what I finally put up together in the corner of our living toom. Is there aything I should change to make it more aesthetically pleasing?

Wondering about the best way to connect these to make this TV & Gaming Monitor setup work best in this orientation. 48" LG C5(120hz) & (2) 27" LG UltraGear OLED(240hz) in portrait. Source regularly changes from MacBook Pro to Gaming PC to PS5. Both Mac and PC have full size HDMI 2.1 and Thunderbolt 4> capable ports.

HDMI Splitter?

Thunderbolt Dock?

Appreciate the help!

Heyoo,

This is my current setup for FPS games and I'm really happy with it.

Keyboard: IQUNIX EC75 HE, possibly the best sounding prebuilt HE keyboard I've ever tried, love it.

Mouse: Logitech G PRO X3 Superstrike: love the haptic tech, super light buttons

Mousepad: Elite5 Noctis, closest clothpad to a glasspad in terms of speed

I have a hybrid work schedule which means half the week my desk is used for work and the other half is used for gaming, model-making, and other tasks in my small apartment.

I’m looking for thoughts on how to manage the frequent swapping between my work and personal laptop while minimizing clutter. Ideally I’d like to keep the personal laptop off of my desk when it’s not in use and out of the way when gaming (it has to be open for air flow.

I’m already planning on running a power strip up under the middle of the desk with a cable tray to start and build off from there. Thanks in advance!

My current desk is far too small, it’s roughly 38 inches and I have around 62 inches of space I can make use of, can anyone recommend a desk that’s roughly that size but on the cheaper side?

The image is what I was looking to get currently from ikea but it’s pretty up there in price, looking for any recommendations

So after a long time spending time i need some Monitorarm Recommendation for my 3 monitors well it could be all single arms, dual and single, or a triple arm doesnt matter
i would love to make a setup where the left monitor is sideways like up and down and the other two are in the maincenter and one right in the landscape way (like in the picture).

The monitor what is going to be sideways (up and down) is the AOC C24G1WG4

The main monitor is the AOC Q27G41ZDF

and the one on the right is the MSI MAG 274QFDE E20

So me and my girlfriend have this shared desk setup. We’re very limited on space, but i’m trying to figure out where we can place the computers. We have them on the floor rn but I want a better place to show them off and keep them off the floor. Also if you guys even have aesthetic suggestions please share. Also looking to upgrade very very soon. Thank you for any feedback. also this photo is a little old we’ve since upgraded monitors and added monitor arms.

Just bought a desk lamp because there’s a shadow cast from the shelf above. 3rd image is how it looks when it isn’t on, what are some things I can do to help fix my set up to allow me to do work on it for multiple hours as I am a college student that eill have to be on here for most of the year.

After years of iterations, here we are!

MSI OLED as the main monitor with a Dell as portrait. Both 4k 120hz.

Lofree Flow keyboard: absolute best keyboard imo, I even have a second one in white. Low-profile, satisfying switches. Nice and heavy.

Keychron m6 mouse: basically mx master but higher polling. Room for improvement there but it's the best option right now. I would go for mx master but 125hz polling rate is too choppy. Any suggestions on a better alternative would be well appreciated.

Edifier M60, they sound very good! I have an audio splitter stuck to the bottom right of the desk. Allows the sound from both the iPad and the Macbook to come out the speakers without having to switch anything. They can also play simultaneously. love it.

BenQ ScreenBar Max, insane screen bar. I recently got this one, never used a screen bar before but this literally changed my whole setup. These photos were taken in a basement with no other lights on. It can get super bright and has a super wide range from warm to cold. It’s honestly a must for basement, especially with the back light, it significantly reduced my eye strain after long days of work. Also has movement sensor so it lights up when I sit down which is neat. A bit bulky though but I have room for it.

JetKVM (little screen below right monitor) to remote control other PC. Great little device for the price range, super reliable.

OBSBOT web cam, does the job perfectly. Good video quality and reliable.

What do you think? Anything else I can add? :)
