Pic is not my battlestation, my battlestation is currently under construction
here's mine
>>46674197
Looks nice, what keyboard are you using? 8/10
>>46674283
Looks like Ducky Year of the Horse
>>46674188
Pretty boring but at least there's a theme and it's pretty clean. No hardware of any note visible.
5/10 for whoever's that is
>>46674822
7.5/10, desk looks a bit old. Otherwise it looks pretty noice.
>>46674885
No idea how old it is, was just a flat bit of timber I lacquered and stuck legs on.
Didn't do a great job though.
>>46674822
Grizzly grip/10
Stay pleb
>>46674188
Sorry for the quality. iPhone camera.
tiny desk and no money, I have one laptop being used as a desktop, with my thinkpad on top. Suggestions for improvement? Getting a new desk soon by ripping off Staples furniture warranty
>>46674188
Alright OP, coming at you with some real constructive criticism:
I won't bother knockin' your preferences for case/mouse/keyboard since those are all pretty much preference based choices, but you really need to step up your audio game.
I had those logitech speakers before I upgraded to my current setup and you don't know what you're missing out on until you get a midrange or high end audio system. Speakers like those logitechs dont even compare.
Same for those headphones. Stop buying headphones that are advertised in any way as "gaming" headphones and start lurking headphone threads on here to find a decent pair of headphones that will sound much better than that gaming headset. A simple less than $10 mic that clips on or sticks on will be just as good or better than the one built into the headset. Of course, you could also take the opportunity to get a higher quality microphone.
Overall, 7/10
>>46674822
breddy good 8/10, cables behind desk could use some work
>>46674188
That is such a reddit-tier case.
>>46675302
In the range of shit to OK tier, but I need a wider view and better pic quality to give it a full rating
>>46675323
10/10 anon, really nice. using this as inspiration.
>>46675368
maybe because I found the image on reddit.
>>46675323
10\10 as always. I like that you switch your led's to match your wallpaper. What led's do you have?
>>46675395
Well since somebody asked, I'll grab my Nikon and take a new picture. Give me a minute.
>>46675407
I use a little all-in-one box called a Lightpack that captures light details from the screen edges to display as ambient. I don't have to set light color/temp myself, "it just werks" as mac lovers might say.
Here's an old picture in darkness of it with a different wallpaper
>>46674188
>RedWalls/10
I miss my red walls often.
>>46674822
>Speakers/10
Interesting. Did you make the cabinets yourself? Is there a port at the rear?
>>46675302
>Worse speaker placement than I.
Your stereo images are literally crossing. You should put each one at the far right and left upper section of the desk if possible.
>>46675323
>PhoneDock
I almost bought a similar one, instead I got a wireless charger. How do you like it?
>>46675561
8.5/10
Food really wasn't necessary in the pic
>>46675561
Thank you for using the newer picture, I think it really does make a difference
>Another ugly ass NZXT case
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>46675583
holy shit people really can't read
the picture isn't mine
I got it off of reddit /r/battlestations.
>>46675561
Yes I made them, and no they're not ported.
The cleanness of sealed cabinet is better than the slight bass extension I would have had, and I can make up for that more than enough with the sub I also made.
>>46675578
It's actually older. It's before I got my keyboard casing.
>>46675570
Thanks.
Perhaps not, but it is necessary for tastiness.
>>46675561
I know the speaker placement is bad, but there's literally nowhere else I can fit them
>>46675616
I figured so. I'm just curious as to why you made such a tall cabinet when your woofers are, relatively small by comparison.
>>46675660
If it was ported I would have made them smaller, but as is, this fits the driver performance the best.
>>46675644
You can't fit one in that far right cabinet? It looks like it would fit. My girlfriend has those same speakers for her room, they aren't very large.
>>46675443
That's actually quite neat, thanks
>>46675561
I actually like it quite a bit. My Moto X doesn't have wireless charging or I would have just gone with that. The dock I got was just a basic "one size fits all" $15 dock off amazon.
>>46675740
It looks nice.
The wireless one is pretty sweet though. Nothing as convenient as picking up the phone, sending a reply to a text, then setting it back down. No cable hassle.
They have those adapters for the battery. Not sure if they're any good.
>>46675443
thanks for the info on the lightpack love your setup
R8, h8, and fornic8.
>>46674188
Didn't you post on reddit?
>>46674822
Nice speakers, cable management could use some work, little bit on the "organised chaos" side.
>>46675302
Cluttered, crappy desk, shit name, speakers poorly orientated for stereo, poor cable management.
>>46675323
Always love your setup, a second monitor could be nice, a bigger desk as well.
Why was Jesus a pharmacist?
>>46675561
Always great. What do you think of suspending your side speakers from the bottom of the shelf? A second monitor with a mount might be a worthy investment.
>>46675694
unfortunately not, both those spots are only as wide as a CD case.
New picture
>>46675908
>suspending speakers
Honestly, even though they're speakers with horns, they're fine where they are. First off, their budget Klipsch speakers. Second, they're used for gaming mostly. Third, they're far enough away from my ears where it makes almost no audible difference to have them at ear level. I'm not too worried about it. I considered maybe just putting them on my desk at the far sides, but then I'd have no space for my DAC/headphone amp, headphones, and I'd need to relocate the computer. I do like your mount though. I need one like that, that can mount that low, for three monitors.
>Phone tier camera
How do I take better pics
>>46674188
That's a whole lot of space between the edge of your desk and your keyboard
>>46674822
9/10 Looks good except for that precarious subwoofer. Doesn't it ever get in the way of your legs?
>>46675323
Manage your cables
>>46675323
That's a cool monitor I love it
>>46675561
Can't say much, Simple, clean but a little bland. But that's just me.
>>46675913
That's a better picture, and I see now. If you had a second table to put the laptop on, or didn't need the laptop at your desk all the time, you could just place them down there.
>>46675908
I'm moving to a new place in a few months so I am postponing buying another monitor/new arm until I get there. I'll have a bigger desk area too which will be great.
Jesus was one of the first people in recorded history to demonstrate a topical drug. He rubbed mud on a guy's face and cured him of blindness. He also provided patient counseling for all kinds of other treatments prescribed by other doctors of the periods, characteristic of the current role of a pharmacist.
>>46676015
>... a little bland...
Yeah, it's true. Hoping my items coming in the mail fixes that.
>>46676015
No, it's further back than it looks.
I took a new picture.
>>46674188
Really like the red color scheme you went with.
Also, I want the ducky more and more.
8/10
>>46674822
Please get a mousepad. Any is fine.
Oh, and a bigger desk, looks too cramped.
7/10
>>46675302
Get a mousepad. Post pics of your new desk when you're done. 4/10
>>46675323
>>46675443
This is perfection. 10/10
This site has nothing more to teach you.
>>46675561
Really would've been better without the food, but quite nice all in all. 8/10
>>46675913
What temps are you getting with that cooler setup?
7/10
>>46676015
Don't tell me you always have one of your speakers infront of your screen? 6/10
>>46676046
Nah man, rubbing mud on someone's face to heal them makes him a magician.
>>46676075
I got a mousepad last week :)
And got rid of the PS3 and replaced HDD dock with a NAS, so it's clearer now.
>>46676025
>>46676025
Good idea, I might try putting them on an extra chair that I've got, I'm moving in a couple weeks anyways and I'm gonna completely rebuild my station, so it's not really a big deal at the moment.
i wish more people used CRT's
>>46676075
Would putting a speaker behind my monitors compromise sound? The edge of my second monitor is pretty much the edge of my desk
>>46676194
Most likely would muffle them and distort the sound pretty fairly, depending on how close to the monitor, and how much of the cones (or specific ones) are blocked and not blocked by the monitor.
>>46676155
- Too bulky
- Too rare
- Too much eyestrain
- Too noisy
- Too shitty resolution
- Too weighty
- Too beige
>>46674188
Jealous as fuck of that Ducky Mini. Do you know if the LEDs can be one solid color, and maybe yellow?
Also your desk is suffering from lack of balance with all your tech being on the right side of the desk and its making it look really cluttered.
>>46675323
Wonderful as always n3n
>>46675561
potato pic, but neat otherwise i suppose.
any explanation as to why you have the soundbar?
>>46675908
would really have liked to see your case not in the picture. It's a bit too distracting because you have this really cozy vibe going on with everything and then bam sterile, pristine looking case that kind of ruins the mood.
>>46676075
You better not use that intuos for osu, i swear to god.
>>46676155
>>46676227
People who use CRT's are people who are either hipsters, have an actual purpose such as it was a spare which they're using for compatibility with an older device, or are poor.
>>46676245
>Potato picture
Yeah, that's the Nexus 5. New camera on the way.
>Soundbar
Where do you see that?
>>46676282
The middle speaker. That's a soundbar isn't it? I mean it looks like one to me..
>>46676305
A centre speaker and a soundbar are different things.
>>46674188
The H440 seems to be really fucking popular.
I also have this case.
>>46676343
I have a small fridge next to my setup.
kek
Also, shot of the window.
16GB RAM, i5 4690k @ 4.7ghz, GTX 780TI, MSI Z97 Gaming 5 mobo.
BenQ XL2411T monitor, Harman/Kardon Soundsticks III speakers.
>>46676341
Ah. I'm guessing this thing is only really used for movies? Never really seen a center cannel speaker like that before so it's a bit new to me. Thanks gatorade.
>>46676343
ledingdongspeakers :^)
>>46676413
Visitors call them the dildos.
Exceptional sound quality, though.
>>46676305
No, it's just a center for my 7.1 set up
>>46676425
>Exceptional sound quality
Compared to what exactly?
>>46676440
Standard 2.1 setups.
>>46676245
The ducky mini has red/blue dual LEDs, so the colors can either be red, blue, and everything in between. I think there's a green/red version though.
>>46676413
It's used in multi-channel setups, particularly with discrete audio channels.
In movies, most dialog will come from the center. In games, dialog and usually menus sounds and sounds that are (obviously) directly in front of you will play through it. Although, usually so will sounds that are directly in front will sometimes extend into the front left and right.
>>46675583
H440 and the H340 are one of the most beautiful cases ever made.
>>46676455
If by standard you mean 2.1 setups that are less than $70, maybe.
This is my first time posting in these threads, I'm interested in suggestions on how to make a small space feel less cramped and more cozy.
>>46675323
Very clean, everything looks right in place 10/10
>>46675908
I really like this one, if anything I would suggest framing that poster 9/10
>>46675561
The picture itself is grainy but the station is great, looks like a place where a person can get some work done.
What is that blue drink?
My panorama is a shit.
>>46676494
Please.
The Harman Kardon Soundsticks are considered to be in the top tier in this regard.
GTFO with the snyde remarks.
>>46675913
My Advice is to try making some money to build a small pc then sell of thinkpad (if you wont need it) and then slowly build up from that.
>>46676520
Top tier of what? They are just casual logitech tier out of the box 2.1, only they cost more than they sound. A lot of tech sites give them good reviews, but you won't find anything from an actual audio site giving an objective review on their performance. There is nothing special about them.
>>46676520
>Buying those translucent dildos
pls
>>46676506
>Blue drink
It's Mountain Dew Voltage. Pretty tastey, but I can't seem to stomach drinking more than one can per day. Probably killing me from the inside.
>>46676427
using that desk now, but with the cupboard and drawer vs that little table
>>46676533
Yeah I'm saving for a new desktop, but I'm moving in a couple weeks so it'll be a while before I can afford one
>>46676571
It was a nice desk, little too small for my needs now.
>>46676245
>would really have liked to see your case not in the picture. It's a bit too distracting because you have this really cozy vibe going on with everything and then bam sterile, pristine looking case that kind of ruins the mood.
Unfortunately I'd rather put up with having my case there over putting it on carpet and not having access to the IO (Which is on the right side rather that the top or left)
>>46676506
>I really like this one, if anything I would suggest framing that poster 9/10
Not worth framing a $10 poster IMO, if I ever replace it I probably will look into it.
>>46675908
Where did you get that gel pad?
>>46676791
It's not gel. That's the Grifiti wrist pad.
I need to take a better pic with my new monitor
>>46674188
the monitors seem too far apart
I like the red theme but you also have a blue keyboard, green headphones, green mouse, and green mouse pad.
You probably don't care but I get OCD with that
8/10
>>46674822
Looks really good. I've always liked the solid white tubing for cooling.
The monitor set up is good as well.
9/10
>>46675302
seems like a function over form set up
I would relocate the speaker to the left and right of the monitor and try to tidy up the wiring
>>46675323
NO ZERO DAYS
I love that stand as always. Looks nice and clean.
9/10 would be 10/10 if you had another monitor
>>46675561
Nice lamp
Looks like another clean set up
I think this would look 100 times better with a rug. It might help with blending the wood on the desk in with the floor.
9/10
>>46675908
Nice colours
Everything seems to match up pretty nicely 9.5/10
>>46676015
Nice wallpaper
for what I see it looks like a 9/10 but the picture doesn't show much of the room
>>46676075
10/10
>>46676245
10/10
If you had keys the same colour as your headphone cord it would be 11/10
If your background somehow had some pink and green in it... it would help blend that in though.
>>46676343
Your computer would be better on the ground.
Overall 7/10
>>46676427
9.5/10
It might just be the photo but if you have chips in your desk just touch it up with a black sharpie
I have that same type of desk in another room
>>46676506
Nice colour scheme
The lava lamp doesn't fit though.
7/10
>>46676517
Buy yourself some zip ties and ties those cables up!
7/10 now
9/10 with cable ties
>>46674188
8/10 Definitely got that color scheme to work out for you. Lamp brings it all together too. Bravo
>>46674822
Nice watercooling. Got a 3570K, still haven't tried OCing yet. Kind of afraid to do it haha. Sexy speakers & woofer though. 7.5/10
>>46675323
NO ZERO DAYS/10
Joking aside, Still a solid 10 for you on account of The clean setup and that ambient lighting you got behind the monitor
>>46675561
Yours is a good 9. Good wiring on the top, and that's a sexy, almost bezel-free monitor you got there too. Might also look good if you got a pic with that recess lighting on.
>>46675908
Clean setup, mein neger on the rum&coke, Like the case. After seeing everyone else, I believe a new case is in order for me soon. 9.5/10
>>46675913
Definitely gotta work on that clutter. Do you have a tower, or is it the thinkpad?
>>46676015
Yours is a little too zoomed in, try backing up a bit to show more. Keyboard and mouse might look good if in the middle of the screens, unless you got no more slack in the cords.
>>46676075
Nice triple setup here. Decent cable management, definitely better than mine 8.7/10
So, decided to see what it's like with my Receiver up on the desk. Doesn't look too bad.
And yes, I like it cool
>>46676928
>Lighting on
Thanks! The monitor is a Dell U2414H.
>>46676926
I'll think about adding a rug.
About my old red station, I occasionally would use sharpie on the desk.
>>46676926
>The lava lamp doesn't fit though.
Yeah, I noticed that when I actually saw the pictures. I might as well just get a regular lamp, this one doesn't light up the place for shit.
>>46676676
i just upgraded to it from a tiny glass one, my tower has to be up here for now cuz i dont have solid wood floor and i dont want hair and shit in the psu, wondering if i can still fit 2 23/24 inch monitors on here
>>46676494
Don't know about that.
Audio quality is pretty good.
I'm satisfied.
Also, is it just me or has the captcha system gone haywire?
I get like 2 15 letter words that are nearly impossible to make anything of.
>>46677049
Thought that was a kitchen counter at first with the way the lighting looks.
I need to work on my lighting.
I literally only have the ceiling lighting in the living room, nothing else.
>>46677123
If you had the one I had, perhaps. But the one you got with the drawers is around 5-7" less in width, so maybe not. I'm sure they're stands will fit, but you'll be sitting uncomfortably close to the drawers, and the monitors will probably hang off the desk slightly. Not the stands, but the actual screen.
>>46676791
Amazon or their site usually.
>>46677049
Now THAT is sexy as fuark. You just earned yourself a 10 my good man
>>46677383
Why thank you, anon.
>>46674188
I really like your walls.
>>46674822
That's a great OC!
>>46675323
10/10, super appealing and clean.
>>46677185
I've had that chair, monitor, amp, and keyboard all before.
>>46676382

>>46678309
Damn, bro, all you have to do is move your eyes back and forth lol.

Waiting for low noise adapters, it's gonna be good and I'm really excited.
>>46678995
nice desk, where did you get it?
also your picture is a prime example of why I didn't get and HTC
>>46679032
Hahaha, I'm glad you recognized the HTC purple tint.... The room was really bright when I took that picture, that camera is shit....
The tabletop is actually something I found in my parents basement a long time ago, sanded it down (by hand, DON'T do this! Get a sander....) and gave it some oil! I'm really proud of it, it's gorgeous.
The legs are all IKEA
ADILS on the left, and ALEX on the right.

I can see several reasons that filename is valid, I just want to verify, it's not the t-shirt.
Cause "Nerd" shouldn't be considered a bad word anymore.
If someone were to call me a Nerd these days I'd laugh in their face. It's not insulting anymore. I guess that's how black people feel about the N-word, kinda.

Finally replaced the PSU after the old one had been acting weird for the past couple of weeks.
Sometimes it'd turn on right away, but most of the time it wouldn't turn on until turning it on/off/on at the back several times.
Has anyone tried Seasonic RMA in Europe?

Haha, you got that dumb playstation monitor.
Yes its vaguely annoying that my screens aren't matched but at least playing on surround is pretty sweet. I also use them for archviz stuff and 3D modelling ( gotta spread all my dialog boxes somewhere).
Also why don't you guys get a fish tank? They're great having a little world to care for right on your desk. Just keep it far from your PC tower of course.

I just change half of the water once a week, I have a few litle plecos that munch most of the other debris and stuff in there. The filter has a foam thing that catches all the gunk from the bottom. In 5 months of having it it's not got green or cloudy or anything.
Besides fish are just so relaxing to watch.
>>46683002
>leave apartment for two-three weeks
>come back to starved-to-death fish and a shit-dirty tank
Yeah, no.
Maybe if I could set up a robot arm to pour in a couple of spoonfuls every day or so, I'd be less worried.
And for cleaning; do you just fill the tank with snails?
You'll still have to drain the tanks and put in clean water every now and then, right?
Too much maintenance and gearfagging for my taste in pets.
At least with a cat you can install a flap in the door so it can go outside.
It's also why I won't get a cat until I get a house to live in.
>>46683002
More info on the fish tank pls.How big is it,basic parts,maintenance ect.
>>46683106
Look at it. 25L, maybe. It's tiny.
>>46683106
It's a Reef One Biorb Flow 30L
http://www.biorb.co.uk/products/product-category/biorb-flow-aquariums cost about £100 from ebay. Comes with ceramic rocks for the bottom, a foam filter with activated carbon pellets, a pump, LED in the lid, and if you get the tropical one you also get a heater and a thermometer. Pretty good deal.
Small tanks like this are only suitable for small fish and you should check that it'll support the amount of fish you're buying. I have 2 plecos, 7 cardinal tetras and a few neon tetras. That's about as much as it'll support. You also have to cycle the tank before putting fish in (you can do it with fish as well), look it up. It's about getting the bacteria to grow so the ammonia/nitrates don't get too high.
As for maintenance like I said i just change the water once a week, making sure to use the same temperature and put a couple drops of water conditioner in it (removes chlorine). I also feed them once a day, sometimes once every other day, just a tiny pinch of food. I add a couple of drops of fertilizer for the plants too. They're live plants which requires some work getting them settled but it's very easy to maintain now - it sounds like a lot but it takes 5 mins once a week and feeding them is actually fun so I don't count that as maintenance but it basically takes ten seconds.
/an/ has aquarium generals and they can point you in the right direction for getting started. It's definitely worth it, I love my fish, even if theyre only tiny.
>>46683081
I went away for xmas for two weeks, just put my tank in the kitchen and my flatmates fed them. Yes I also have a few snails in there, they're assassin snails though, they eat the tiny snails. It really doesn't get dirty very fast.
And no i only change half the water at once, doing more than that can stress the fish too much. You can use little gravel vaccuums if there's shit building up in the bottom.
Honestly it's nearly zero maintenace. It's partly because of the choice of fish, a goldfish would need a lot more water changing, a bigger tank, more cleanup etc Tetras are low-maintenance hardy, and have shiny colours.
>>46683257
>flatmates
foreveralone here.
I'd get a travel box for my future cat.
>>46683303
Well at least you don't get nagged about cleaning the kitchen when it's someone elses mess.
I'd love to get a cat, I thought about getting one secretly (rent agreemeent doesnt allow pets) but I got fish instead because I figured theyre easier to justify if there is a problem with the landlord (ie, they don't make any mess).
Haven't posted in one of these since forever.

I wonder why we accumulate all this shit and post it to get ego-stroked by others. It's not like it makes us happy or anything. I have so much expensive stuff yet I barely use any of it and none of it has made me at all happier except for a brief hour or so when unboxing it.
Nothing special here.
Just clean, and functional. The table is something i cobbled together from plywood, until i can find something that suits my needs.
I know the table is ghetto as hell, but i build it myself, so i got that going for me which is nice.
Cable management is nonexistent, everything is hidden behind the monitors and behind the computer.
Normally it's not this tidy, i just cleaned up, and unless i post here, who is going to know?
