Ah, the old Fallout EIASPLC system

Your going to tell me there is a S.P.E.C.I.A.L order they should go in now aren't you?

I am no countdown master but i'm thinking it should spell... special.

@PardonTheWait

A fellow overclocker made me the coasters

Didn't you use to have a Steelcase Leap? Why replace it for a dinky old little chair?

SonicSW20 · 18 Nov 2019 at 16:16

Basic little corner, must get round to moving the cupboard out a little more so the wires will actually fit behind.

I did yes. The steelcase was nice but not that comfortable for me. All these years in the gym have blessed me with quite a lot of upper back muscle, so I find lower back chairs more comfortable when at a desk. This sits mid back and has a nice angle which again I find very comfortable for me. It’s not old or small, from IKEA.

I just realised how dodgy the grow lights (for some chillis etc.) must look through the window

My desk set up, replacing the mouse mat with a Glorious 3XL from OCUK and getting a dual monitor arm as well.

New desk and newly decorated office.

Sorry if this has been asked.
Moving into a new house soon and was wondering if this was a custom or off the shelf job?
I love the thick pale wooden top

It an Ikea special. Drawers are Alex, not sure on the top but I'd guess its Karlby or similar.

Great thanks guys! Might very well go for the same. Most desks I've seen have been to small. Or missing something!

Recently added the following hardware to my setup.

Razer Core X
Sapphire Nitro+ 5700 XT
Huawei VR 2 cable

You can see the Razer Core X under the desk, I have it in a vertical orientation to allow me to use the 0.5m passive TB3 cable to the Mac mini above. I did have it on my desk but I prefer to have it under the desk as it's quieter. The Huawei VR 2 cable allows me to connect the Display Port out on the 5700 XT, combine it with USB-A and output to USB-C to drive my 23.7" LG UltraFine 4K monitor.

Windows has been installed in boot camp allowing me to play games on there as well using the 5700 XT. This is pretty much my perfect setup.

Made some more changes.

The eGPU was returned and replaced with a 2nd hand Blackmagic eGPU. It's not the most powerful but it gives a nice boost in Lightroom/Photoshop and is dead silent + works better with my LG Ultrafine. The quality of the thing is exceptional as well.

Sold my HomePod as I've gone back to Spotify.

So plans for the new year
- New speakers, may go back to the 2.0 setup I had, but I am limited on space.
- Potentially going to mount the Mac mini under the desk if I go with the 2.0 speaker setup.
- New desk mat, this one is starting to curl up and won't stay flat.

Read some of the old posts about being untidy. This is me when I am building or maintaining a 3D printer. I call it controlled chaos.

Is there a 'spec me a desk' thread on these forums? I could do with a new desk and i'm not sure what to go for.
