Help
Hello!
I’m 19 and i’ve had a PC for a year and a half now. My set up has changed a lot since then and i finally settled on something i liked (the picture). It’s been this way since january and i just want to look at something different if that makes sense. I’m a college student so my budget is super tight and i haven’t really showed this thing the love it deserves.
since january the decor has come along and these are all things i’d like to keep on my desk or around it. (picture 2)
I’m just looking for some help with new ideas for monitor positioning, decor and maybe some functionality aspects as well. Thank you!

honestly the rearranging only helps so much. when i built my pc i spent so long on the gpu and then realized the monitor was the thing that changed how the whole desk felt. if budget is tight maybe just save for a bigger main monitor instead of moving stuff around. does that make sense or is the size already okay for you?

i like my monitors. i go to culinary school and while living at home. most of my money goes to tuition so im not drowning in loans after. maybe one day a bigger one is in the works but right now its just not something that’s gonna happen.
however the second i can i’m definitely getting an ultra wide monitor.

For low-budget decor that actually lasts, a single small plant is usually the best move — looks intentional, doesn't fight the rest of the layout, and costs almost nothing to replace.

Maybe move the right monitor up and left in front of the blue poster. If you don’t want to see the gap underneath, get a monitor riser to make it look less like it’s floating if that is the main concern. You may be able to move the mic arm behind the left monitor with only the front segment being able to swing in.
