What are good pc desks?

Pic related, that's the one I prob want to buy.
>>
Go for an overhead hutch with pinboard.
Same space as shelf in your pic, but it's up off the floor, giving you more space.
>>
Build your own, or buy something from IKEA

I'm thinking about just getting a door and some legs.
>>
>>54820522
Make sure it's a solid core door. You can also pick up some small sawhorses for legs. Not only is that easy to just plop together, but the plank across the top of the sawhorse reinforces a long section of the door atop which you can place your tower. Plus you have lots of surface for cable management, placing hooks, etc.

I got the large one, so much space. Feels good if you come from shitty desks.

Don't make a Ghetto station, you can at least buy a cheap one. The small desks aren't that expensive.

build your own, seriously.
>>
>>54817281
This is not a PC desk. It's fashion desk meant to look good, not be functional. If you actually want good PC desk look into office desks, the big ass ones that sit on metal frame, something like what >>54821654 posted.
>>
Please don't go to IKEA and waste your money on a shitty laminated cardboard desk. Contact a welder for a frame, contact a carpenter for a table top.
>>
>>54821794
I did this; it didn't go so well. I recommend you buy the top pre-made somewhere. it's really difficult to get a proper finish yourself (mine turned out shitty). The easiest way to do a desk is just to get 2 sets of drawers and throw a table top on them.

>>54817281

niggardly contraption is what it is. Go get yourself something black.

Its called Winkelschreibtisch Office Line Sonoma Eiche here.

I use 2nd hand office furniture now.

Not the cheap shit, these stuff is mostly steel, cost me fuck all, and the guy threw in a table top too so I saved cash there.

Also means I get full depth drawer slides on everything, 24inch deep cabinet, 23inch deep drawers that come all the way out.

Its good man.

Fuck desks, I bought an armchair like that for 25€ in goodwill shop and i spend the whole day with my dankpad, just like picrel. Comfy as fuck.

I gotta suggest seeing whatever you buy in person to gauge the build quality, whenever possible. Feel the surfaces and pay close attention to where components meet (corners, edges, etc.) as this can reveal a lot about quality.

Your unit looks like plastic coated particle-board which should be moderately sturdy but not long lasting. The plastic surface finish looks like it could scuff easily.

Some of the cheapest furnitures tend to be hollow inside and may start to sag over time. (cheapest ikea surfaces) Make sure to knock on any thick volumes to test for this. Always look for real materials, all the way through. Solid plastic or wood would be much nicer than laminate or veneer.

At ikea, kitchen tables made from the same materials tend to be much cheaper than their desk counterparts!

I personally prefer non-integrated furniture, so a shelf unit AND a laptop table will be more flexible than a single unit. It's nice to be able to move your desk around when you feel like it (assuming you have a laptop). Corner units can restrict how you arrange stuff.

I suggest a generic table with the right dimensions.

>breaking the bank on an expensive table

Buy a cheap table and save your money for more cores.

I just have a big ass, heavy wooden office desk that I got for free. The type that's just flat, finished wood with four sturdy wooden legs and a little drawer in the middle. Works great for two people, enough depth for keyboard/mouse, monitor table (just some pipes and tile from home depot I used to raise the height of the monitor) and monitor. Even enough room for a small plate/bowl between me and the keyboard.
>>
>>54827233
the ikea melltorp 49" version is ~55 bucks and probably the best cheap work surface I can think of.
>>
I would recommend a kitchen top with legs from ikea or a drawers on side to stablise it.
A lot of them can be cut to fit size and they are durable
>>
>>54820503
Holy shit I used to have that exact model when I was a kid.
