Ideal Desk Height?

Just curious as to what’s everyone’s ideal desk height. I’m still trying to find mine.

Mines 71” for day to day use, 76” for sitting back watching media.

It is, although fundamentally, it's pretty straight-forward - your elbows and knees should be a right-angles, and you should be looking slightly downwards ie. top of the screen at about eye-level.

I'm 189cm and my desk is set at 72cm, according to the calculator the height should be 69cm but I'm quite happy were it is.
