What are your suggestions for me /g/?

Paint your walls and bigger desk.
Better speakers, I guess it's difficult to have a nice desk with that curve in the wall. And paint the walls.
>>45869192
Currently neither are painting the walls or a bigger desk are options because I am sharing a single room in a house that is being rented as is. As for the speakers, I honestly just wear headphones 24/7 so I don't find it needed. BUT a fix for all three is on it's way, because I am in the market for a new place to myself now that I have a better job.
>>45869181
Or delete my post, whatever.
Anyways OP, >glass desk.
HAPPY NEW YEAR
>>45869174
I'd get a new table and work on the cables. BALANCE OUT THE POSTERS FOR GODS SAKE, MY AUTISM OH GOD
>>45869192
You could use a shelf perhaps, books, and a flower, not too stuffed.
>>45869241
I hear so much shit about glass desks. Not sure how one ends up breaking one, or how common it is. But I like it better than any other desk I've had.
>>45869243
Yeah I kind of removed a couple then slapped the joker up there in the first stud I found. I planned on adjusting them soon enough. What in particular is wrong with my desk though?
Will move out soon, what could I change?
>>45869243
>top right
>mfw
>>45869243
Yeah I guess, I have all the core components now I need to make it lived in really.
tfw 10+ year old desk that has been abused to shit
>>45869362
more like 10+ year old literally everything are you from 2005
Feedback on my new ruined Battlestation?
Had to rearrange for my monitors.
>>45869192
why not just put the case on the ground?
>>45869362
snowfag a fuck
I am early!
>nice
>>45869391
Might I ask. Why razer?
>>45869382
Dust. I have the space so why not, it's not even loud.
>>45869382
>case on the ground
are you fucking retarded
actually i dont even need to ask with that setup
>>45869423
what?
>>45869304
The desk looks like it belongs out in the garden.
>>45869361
Lived in, yeah that's the thing, it needs more of you, now it's just a battlestation.
>>45869438
I guess it could look like that.. it looks like a normal glass L shaped desk to me.
>>45869399
To be 100% honest
>regret on keyboard now
I bought it to use the macro keys initially to SSH into my sever with having to fuck around typing I could hit 1 key and be in. Used it for my remote desktop to my server as well; which I in a dater center... Just saved time really.
I wish I just had of got a 10keyless cherry
as for the mouse... I don't regret that purchase.. the wireless functionality and battery life outlasts any wireless I have ever purchased hands down.
>picture is my old setup with same mouse and keyboard
>downsized to a smaller desk because of moving house.
>>45869423
Case on the ground is fine if there's no carpet
Tfwnbs until I move
Happy new years /g/
>>45869550
If you're looking for tenkeyless mechanical with macro programmability I suggest hopping over to best buy and grabbing the corsair k65 rgb.
Happy new year!
yoo
I'll work on my cables tomorrow as much as I can.
>>45869381
You don't plan on putting one of those LS50s in the corner do you?
>>45870222
>anime dolls
Kill yourself weaboo
>>45870302
Your words hurt so much babe
My monitor blocking my TV and i am ok with that
>>45870318
>every thread
I love it when they complain about it.
>>45870318
Happy New Year guys
>>45870324
Joking about it doesn't make it any less fucking retarded
>>45870345
"I'm such a newfag please rape my face" is what your sentence says.
>>45870318
soooo, do you move your monitor out of the way or what
that seems like an unnecessary amount of effort when you could just mount your tv a few inches higher, or even better just move your desk
>>45870358
I'm not new, I just think it's retarded every single time I see it because it absolutely is.
Speakers are from 2005
>>45869174
Frame those posters, specially the leftmost one. I'd get a bigger, non-glass desk that can hide the spaghetti well.
>>45869192
You seriously need to manage those cables. Other than that there's not much you can do with that desk I think. I'd try to move the pc down.
>>45869241
>one speaker on top of each other
>3 trash cans
b8/10
>>45869243
I suggest donating your setup to me.
>>45869316
Better cable management, put some of the unneded stuff away and mainly just better organize your stuff. Other than that, looks pretty fine to me. Don't really like that white and that car though.
>>45869362
Cable management, better desk and I don't really understand what the fuck is going on with all these different patterns on the floor/walls. Looks like you live in some ghetto disco club..
>>45869381
I like it.
>>45869382
I really don't understand why people have trash cans in their bedrooms. Like, what the fuck, get up and throw the trash away. Otherwise looks ok.
>>45869391
Get those monitors closer and do away with the razer trash.
>>45869929
Looks fine but what is that beside the case?
>>45870024
Too fucking cramped, get a bigger desk and manage wires. Not a fan of the gameboys in display.
>>45870205
What's with that qt3.14 keyboard on the speaker?
>>45870222
>animu garbage
>>45870318
You stil have NO excuse for that when you could literally move it a little bit up and that's it. Otherwisse it looks really good.
>>45870376
If you weren't that much of a newfag you'd know how he watches TV.
Hint: he said it months ago.
>>45870385
>Looks fine but what is that beside the case?
It's my lego box, i have my feet on it.
>>45870391
Alright:
First off, I know. I still don't care, I *Still* think it's retarded.
Also, your comment implies that for one to not be new, they need to have read every single comment for a month.
That's autistic.
>>45870239
Yup
Where the DsotM vinyl is. Of course i will test my way through and decide what sound the best. I wont shove them in and choke them like the other anon does, he tortures his speakers. I will give them 10-15 cm of space to breath.
Im also looking at these
http://www.thomann.de/se/isoacoustics_iso_l8r130.htm
>>45870400
Neat. How do you like your steering wheel? Is it a G27? Not reaaaally a fan of racing vidya but I think that shit is just too fucking cool but I'm not sure.
>>45870385
here's a tip, clean your actual fucking room. Repain the walls, throw down some wood floors. Disgusting
>>45870417
I really like it, works really great with ETS2.
>>45870391
>paying this much attention to how some random absolutely fucking nobody watches tv on a mesopotamian arts & craft web forum
Toasting
>>45870423
Yeah I'm aware of that. Can't do anything about the floor though, but I'm getting those walls sorted out soon. My dad paid some random hack to paint it and it's unbelievably bad, the painting even comes off with fucking water lel. He got scammed badly.
>>45870359
Put it upside down when i use TV.
If to lift TV above will be uncomfortable to watch tv because needs to raise the head while watching.
So I just ordered a gtx 970 (zotac), but ordered the most basic model... Did I dun goofed?
>>45869174
I got longer power cords in the mail, going to do some cable management later.
>>45870790
>function>form
>yes, i like your station
Going out to buy my new desk in a few hours. Will probably have a new picture of it tomorrow.
Picture will probably still be from a potato.
>>45870800
Nice room Anon, looks comfy as fuck
Sorry for the grainy photo. BRB, just heard something..
>>45870920
What keyboard is that?
>>45870942
Poker II with custom key-caps
>>45870951
thanks
>>45870920
I think all the colors are supposed to look slick or trendy but yours has begun to look like a child's room.
Happy New Years from Japan /g/.
>>45871057
Happy new year!
Current state
>>45870920
What's that numpad? Looks qt.
In your face!
woo new thread
>>45870800

>>45870333
Are you russian?
Nice chechenian borocco, brew.
>>45871823
Yes, i am
>>45870920
That stapler.
>>45870893
I just picked up a new desk yesterday. And by desk I mean a 7' by 4' door. Threw it on two sawhorses and called it a day.
It's nice because where the handle goes there is a hole, which helps for cable management. It's just.. giant.
>>45871057 Happy new years.
another lonely year in a chair looking at a monitor.
>>45872254 It get's pretty cold in there with that air conditioner right?
Just dropping in to say hi to streetguru before I leave.
>>45872318
I bought it before I knew it was a meme. Next time I buy something I'll make sure It's not a meme on /g/.
>>45872377
Animeme, kek, yeah I was just giving you a hard time, don't take it personal, in a few months everyone with forget about the "meme" anyways.
>>45872377
How's c++? did you give-up like I?
hlo
r8
still have some cleaning to do tho
Mfw almost everyone on /g/ is rich as fuck
Well? sorry I tried my best
>>45872505
The poorer among us aren't the ones who circlejerk over their expensive setups in threads like these.
>>45869316
Ryos mk pro nigger gang.
>>45872505
This is basically where 4chan's wealthiest users meet and talk.
>>45872425
Those books raising my monitors are from the early '90s. I was learning C++ from one of Stroustrup's books and switched over to C# halfway through.
I'm on hiatus.. Never give up.
>>45872488
messy stations are secretly the comfiest imo.
Just treated myself to a Sieveking headphone stand, should arrive late next week.
>make suggestions
>>45869192
Clean off all those finger print smudges.
>>45869241
Garbage recycling and greenbin next to bs. Would not sit at.
>>45869243
Not a fan of the keyboard but the rest looks good.
>>45869316
Maybe upgrade the chair and not display that car on the radiator.
>>45869381
Headphones on left seem better, at least for me, I like to have to have that off to the side where my mouse isn't. Then again new layout you kinda lose desk as right armrest. Looks good either way.
>>45870024
I like the station if minus the hat.
>>45870222
How do you even have that many cables coming from there?
>>45870333
Happy New Year, your monitor is blocking your TV.
>>45870385
Nice cable management.
>>45871172
Very organized and well laid out.
Messy fag here
>>45872547
then you should have seen it a few days ago.
I had computer parts everywhere, my entire room the floor was covered with boxes, cloths and computer parts.
>>45872596
Yeah.. talk dirty to me.
>>45872593
Cool shrek glass.
>>45872505
More like we are single and living in small spaces with nothing else to spend salaries meant for support a family on then our battlestations.
>>45872551
>How do you even have that many cables coming from there?
It's impressive, even I ask myself this question.
monitor DVI
monitor power
keyboard
mouse charger
mouse receiver
microphone
headphones
controller
USB/card reader
Backlights
I think that's about it.
>>45872767
*supporting
>>45872695
yes....
Still need to get my chair up
>>45872839
Not sure if being so close to the bathroom would suck or not. I take some smelly poos, but it's also convenient because it's so close.

would prefer to have a separate room but that#s not so easy here in London
>>45872907
nah I'm just messing, it's fine. How do you like a normal chair opposed to a traditional computer chair? My computer chair doesn't give good back support, so I'm thinking of picking up a simple chair with a good backing.
>>45870800
>dem kittys ^_^
your setup looks comfy as fuck bro, never change.
>>45872961
Works fine for me although I would prefer to have a proper computer chair.
I set up my desk to be a little higher than normal so it forces me to stay upright
>>45870457
How you like that monitor?
>>45873026
not him but we have those at work and they are nice
>>45873057
Is it only full hd?
>>45872505
There are two kinds of people on /g/. Those who can afford nice things, and those who can't. You'll find those with money in these threads. You'll find those without in threads about their refurbed chinkpads and Moto Gs.
>>45873066
the model we have at work is 1920x1200
>>45873091
Oh, got it. Too bad, I think I'm gonna buy some 2560x1080p display.
Sparse movingtoabetterplace station.
Shall update again as soon as I find a spot for a 4:3 monitor
Does anyone have a headset recommendation? Just to gaym on, I've heard the g930's left cup goes out all the time and that makes me nervous. Plus, it's a little ugly.
>>45872318
I'd like this a lot more if you put your tower on the floor where it goes

Isn't it weird using that touch pad with your left hand? My grandma uses her mouse left handed, and I understand being left handed, but it never seemed to be something that would work that way.

>>45873426
Your desk looks a little flimsy. You should consider buying some wood and making a new one.
Can't really go wrong with a cardboard mousepad.
Also are you a giraffe? Why is your only monitor lifted so high? Or is the desk lower than it seems to be?
5/10
no 4/10 for cinnamon poptards
>>45873472
My tower used to be on the floor but it resulted in me wearing socks whenever I was on my computer.
>>45873562
Naw I've already stress tested the desk, it's fine.
>>45873585
Do you live there by choice? I've always wondered.
>>45873545
I understand what they're getting at but this video is extremely uninformative and doesn't make me feel like it's a good idea to even attempt any of this.
>>45873607
No I'm a princess trapped here by an evil wizard.
>>45873712
What's not to get? It's a pair of audiophiles talking about cheap audio.
>>45873725
>tfw i would save you
>>45873737
Well they don't show off what they're talking about despite them having everything they're talking about (they even show it in the packaging), so it doesn't feel like it works as good as they think.
Besides, I need a USB headset.
>>45873763
Favorite ps2 game?
>>45873725
What's it look like on the outside?
>>45873791
>I need a USB headset.
That's a joke right? Do you also want wireless?
>>45873818
Well that's the idea, yeah. Wires are awful. I understand the loss in audio quality but like I said I'm just going to be using it to play games, it isn't like I need perfect audio and mic quality.
>>45873791
>>45873841
I think you need to go anon, this isn't the place for you, also fuck anyone that's using a shitty headset mic to talk in game, a decent microphone is only around 40 dollars.
>>45873871
>>45873426
Wacha reading? Please don't say something princess, I don't know where to go from there.

Mah nigga
Guy's I want to put an anime girl on my computer but there are no anime girls that I like enough to put there.
Do you guys only put waifus on your desktop or do you put whichever anime girl looks the best?
How do I find a waifu?
>>45873905
But.. I really am interested.. I just don't know how to search mango
>>45873928
>How do I find a waifu?
watch chinese cartoons
>>45873971
I've watched hundreds, I just don't know how to become attached to just one. There's only like 15 different personalities that girls can take the form of. How do I pick just one?
>>45873928
so lemme get this straight. you want to put
an anime girl on your computer for the sake of
putting an anime girl on your computer because
/g/ puts anime girls on their computers? this man needs a waifu, stat.
>>45874024
Somewhat, I also just like the aesthetics of a colorful anime girl wallpaper.
>>45873957
that was a hint
>>45874041
alright I thought you meant waifu figurine. Wallpapers are a different story.
>>45874010
a waifu chooses you. not the other way around.
>>45874269
Maybe you meant to quote >>45874041
>>45874055
;_;
>>45874363
I did
(oops)
>>45872551
If you are still here, would you mind telling me the model name of that chair?

>>45873918
Thanks..at least you're not some douche bag rater that gave me a 2/10..I mean what the fuck.. =/
>>45875360
The station has room for improvement, but that drive bay on the top is too useful not to like.
