Where is your gaming PC located?

In the box room, underneath my massive desk that holds 3 monitors. Can't see it lasting beyond a few years and will have to downsize. Kids seem inevitable at some point.
 
taking up half of the study, which isn't a big room, but it does have the only locatable lan socket (the wires disappear off into the wall somewhere but no idea where, but i'd wager you could give the plaster a light tap in the right spot and have yourself a pre-wired socket housing)

no room for it anywhere else
 
The PC is on the floor under my desk in my office upstairs, connected to the 40" 4K TV which is sat on the desk as my main monitor. It's also connected to a 32" 1080p TV in my bedroom and to my 55" 1080p TV in the living room via HDMIs and USB extension cables through the walls. I love it :)
 
Under my desk, it wouldn't physically fit on my current desk if I tried. When I'm at a lan with a huge table it's up on the desk on 'show'.
 
I have an office at the back of the house. I'm photographer at the weekend so it's a gaming/treat photos room where I can put some music on and keep away from the family.

But, more often than not, I have one of my three kids on it.
 
Was on top of my desk on the left with monitor in the middle. Now it's under left of my desk with an old Optiplex for older games in its place with small 15" LCD Monitor on top :)
 
On top of my desk in the hall (sitting on the edge of the desk actually which initially I was worried about it getting knocked off but I didn't spend all that time and money on it not to be able to gaze lovingly at it!). I'm in a 3 bedroom flat and the hall is quite wide. The downsides are that to my left is where the dogs food bowl gets set down and directly behind me in the bathroom/toilet so the occasional odour isn't very pleasant but then I have 3 kids and still manage to game for 4-5 hours a day. The fact that I'm sitting central to what's going on with the rest of the family means that I'm still involved and interacting with them which almost allows me to get away with as much gaming as I do. If I had a separate room and was sat in there all day away from the rest of the family I think it might cause issues...
 
I guess these days you could put it pretty much anywhere and use a Steam Link to get the picture to a TV/Monitor. This got me thinking you could get away with using stupidly loud fans or even putting it in the garage during the winter to maximise cooling/overclocking potential, without it deafening you. Wish I'd bought one during the sale now.
 
In the games room which is a converted garage at the back of the garden. Houses all the boardgames and gaming table too.
