That is how that is
I have since added another graphics card and several monitors.
>>54474923
Anon, why do you need all of these monitors?
Also cable management.
>>54474946
Wallpaper please
>>54474954
>>54474923
fuck yea anon. that makes u look bad ass to ur friends i bet
>>54474853
how do you take apart those monitors without destroying them
>>54474946
so comfy
>>54474983
Follow the WSGF forum guides.
My monitors were especially tricky, so I ended up making a custom mounting solution for the stock stands, which sadly makes them incompatible with the VESA standard
that's a nice clock op
>>54474853
That lamp looks a little bit lonely
>>54474864
Very organized, well done
>>54474923
Why so many monitors?
>>54474946
Nice caps
>>54474946

looks pretty comfy. I'd try and hide those wires.
>>54475729
Nice manchild posters
>>54475729

What mousepad is it you have? I want to replace mine.

Nice setup. Don't your monitors obstruct your speaker sound?
>>54475729
I'll need a non-fisheyed shot to pass judgement.
>>54474946

>>54478462

Yeah, that unparalleled god-like Retina (tm) display really makes the time pop!
>>54474923
But what will you do if you need to watch 9 or more things at once? I r8 8 monitors out of 8

Any recommendations for chairs? Mine finally wore out and I need a new one, budget is up to $120.
>>54479622
>budget is up to $120
Nothing good. Just go to the local office chain and find something around that price.
>>54479629
Ya I thought so, but didn't hurt to ask.
>>54479375
Decent cans but very non ergonomic keyboard and mouse placement.
>>54479646
Didn't mean to be rude but nice chairs are going to run at least 400-500 bucks on up. Save up or condemn yourself to Office Depot brand stuff.
>>54479621
It's not that bad actually.
>>54479647
already changed keyboards but waiting for new keycaps
>>54479657
Ya.
>>54479668
I mean I'm talking about how the keyboard sits on the desk relative to your arm placement. Also aren't the monitors too close for you?
Chair looks comfy, but not very sensible for a battle station.
Like the window a lot, though. Still one of the best stations on /g/

The reasoning is task based. The ability to have many text files open at a glance is an overall boost to productivity when you dont use a mouse to navigate them.
Also
>previous setup with synergy networked computers
>>54479797
Better. I like the window and case.
Shit, small mis-matched monitors. Lame cans. Mediocre mouse and keyboard. Cheap looking task light.
>>54479802
W....what kind of "tasks" anon?
>>54479797

Yikes.
>>54479812

Well, normally my arms are infront of me, typing on the keyboard or using a mouse so I don't see the reason for one there. The corner of my bed is literally right next to that table so if I'm ultra lazy then I'd just lay down with some pillows and watch movies from there.

Okay, I'll allow it I guess.
I am not a fan of stations in bedrooms but I guess if you're some parent dwelling NEET you gotta do what you gotta do.
>>54479929
Don't care.
>>54479934
I like the set up here. Feels very professional, especially with the whiteboard setup. Might do something similar. Plant is also a nice touch, as is the bookshelf. I wish I didn't rent my place so I could do some shelves like that.
Only negative here would be the speakers I guess.
Curious: why does no one on these threads use a keyboard tray?
>>54479934

>>54479934
What is your monitor model? I'm planning on buying a 23" IPS pannel myself (either Dell or AOC) but haven't made my mind up yet. Would you recommend Dell?
>>54479987
>if you're some parent dwelling NEET you gotta do what you gotta do.

>>54480115
Last one for this thread, litterally just a 1998 thinkpad on a desk I used to use for work.
>>54480151
Nice goals, friendo. Despite my criticism it still looks comfy, especially if you have a bed close by, although yeah, I'd need a huge monitor if I wanted to lay that far away.
>>54480214
I jave a large shitty tv for this purpose.
>>54480132

I would rate it 8/10, i love the colors and viewing angles, but i would prefere something with 1920 x 1200 and a less fancy frame like u2412M

These threads are mostly about screens, keyboards and home decoration, so guess its ok to contribute.

>I like the set up here. Feels very professional, especially with the whiteboard setup. Might do something similar. Plant is also a nice touch, as is the bookshelf. I wish I didn't rent my place so I could do some shelves like that.
Thanks, but I might change the plants.

I approve, it will be the next thing I change.
>>54479987
What the fuck is a keyboard tray?
>>54479657
What are some examples of good chairs?
>>54479567
the pole doesn't really bother me at all, I usually wrap my legs around it. Kinda feels nice to have something to snuggle them against, actually.
It doesn't get in the way.
>>54480347
stop acting like a fucking idiot
>>54480449
Oh god, you're kidding, right?
>>54479934
Awkward question - but do you know the measurements for your desk space?
>>54480523
I made the desk:
1600x800mm (5.3 x 2.6 feet) for main table and
1200x600mm (4 x 2 feet) for secondary table
>>54480616
Excellent, thanks. I'm looking at a desk with similar measurements - looks like it will fit quite a bit. Nice work
It's a mess behind the TV (1080i/30hz), as well as being a temporary setup since moving house soon.
>>54478585
yeah, but I've run out of desk space so I'm not sure what to do.
>>54478585
Buy 15 dollar stands from monoprice and mount them on the sides facing inward
>>54481403

>>54481341
>>54476161
Thanks, they're just something to put up on the wall. Any recommendations on what to put on that wall?
>>54478310
It's actually two pieces of thin foam board like pic related. Super cheap and works great. Good setup man.

>>54479567
>is there daylight?
No, it's not my bedroom. Used to be a storage room but i converted it into essentially an office. Nice setup anon.
>>54481403
I'll probably do something similar when I upgrade. These speakers are some $80 set from wal-mart.
Thanks for the advice, though.

Current setup. Second monitor went back to landscape. I also have a thinkpad x220t, but I don't have room on my desk for the dock.
I'm moving into an apartment with my gf and her best friend at the end of this month, so I'm looking forward to having a dedicated office room where I can have a desk big enough for all my monitors and computers and peripherals.
>>54481900
I rent, so I don't have a choice right now.
No drop ceiling, though.
So, I know this isn't an internals thread, but when you guys clean out your PCs, how do you get the fine layer of dust on the horizontal surfaces off after air-dusting? Just take a paint-brush too it?
>>54483698
I just spray more and more compressed air until the dust goes away.
I'm terrible at cleaning my tech.

I use a cotton ball afterwards.

>>54485548

>>54485548
I chose it because:
1. Found the i7 model with 8gb of RAM and a 160gb SSD for $225
2. In my sweet spot when it comes to laptop size
3. One of the last to feature the 7-row layout, which is a must for me as one of the main things I do is programming, plus using Linux means I do a lot from the terminal in general
>>54474946
Wow *Le wild girl appears*!!
Not trying to be weird but would you be willing to add me on Skype? You seem like a really nice person and I would like to get to know you .

I can buy whatever I want for up $2000 at my new workplace so I I've been wondering what is having multiple monitors like. Is it just a meme or does it actually increase productivity? If yes, how many should I get? I can't see the point of having more than 2 but I usually see like 3 or even 4 displays.
>>54486694
People usually buy 3+ monitors for coding and vm work, most people buy it for the memes tho having one screen dedicated to some shitty botnet like skype, I find any monitors over 2 to be way to distracting.
>>54486674
>looks like a v60 or kc60
They're both wired.
>but I would never put meme miami caps on it.. gross
Each to their own.

>>54486768
>uhh this is a pok3r? i think?
Hers is a Pok3r, mine is an RK61
>it's literally the same case
The Poker and most other 60% have the same standard case; dip switches in the same location, mini usb on the left side.
Mine isn't the same.
>>54486774
yes plenty, I am a heavy coder and I game a lot and 2 is just plenty enough for me, anything more than 2 is overkill, also people getting 3 monitors with 144hz full retard, Just get a nice 144hz or 2k monitor or ultrawide and get a secondary monitor and spend the rest of your funds on a nice amp or dac also some headphones you don't need 3 monitors to be a memelord
>>54486831

>>54486774

>>54486824
yea, most 60% cases and layout is poker style anything that has that layout and case i just assume it's probably a poker.
Guys, I'm trying to build a sleeper station with a mid 90's look to it. CRT, Clunky Keyboards, Beige gear and all.
Anyone have any solid battlestations from the 90s?
I'm looking for inspiration and for lots of gear in beige.
>>54486896
buy a ibm model m, build a chair out of a greyhound seat and grab some those 90s cups with the teal swirls and shit, and go to a thrift shop grab a crt and grab windows 98 (older if you wanna be even more meme) turn on that vaporwave, put on crocks and take a pic of your memestation

>>54486947
I've already got a Unicomp and a Sony Trinitron from way back in the day.
It's nto going to be the main station, but one in the study. Sometimes a little throwback, you know?
It's something about a beige computer nestled in between some bookshelves that really does it for me.
>>54486861
Not where I live. I'm more likely to get hit by a Hurricane or Tornado.
>>54484174
The main issue is with the PCBs though. If I whipped it with a cotton ball it would just get caught on all the solder points. that makes sense for all the flat surfaces though. For those I can just use anything though.
I just fucking hate how my pretty black PCBs look medium gray.

>>54486694
Multiple monitors depends what you're doing.
If you rely on electronic reference materials for your work it can be useful. Put your materials on one screen and your work on the other.
Additional screens become progressively less useful except for extremely niche cases.

>>54484972
Very nice indeed sir!
>>54484992
Is that keyboard weird to get used to at all? Closeups pls
>>54485548
Was this a set in a movie? Also when doesn't it hurt your eyes?
>>54486178
I demand you turn it on and photograph again.
>>54487602
Not bad at all I actually enjoy it now.
>>54484558
PC itself is out of the shot there, but that's just a giant tablet monitor and then a CRT in the corner that has a scan converter on top of it, along with a switch to go from NES / PC.
>>54486961
What's it mounted on?
>>54474853
going to start saving for a whole pc upgrade. so tired of my case.
>>54480494
There is nothing wrong with a keyboard tray. Saves room and is better on your posture and wrists.
>>54488328
What's in your build at the moment? You've got the 780ti next to your case, so I'm assuming what your have in your build is better.
Sorry for the angle
I was backed up against my wall trying to get everything in frame
Also, anyone know of a good pair of desk speakers with a subwoofer? I have an old set from the 90s that are on their way out.
Im not looking to spend more than $50
>>54479610
Can you post your wallpaper ?
>>54488260
the slider rail for the tray
>>54476153
I will definetly make a similar set up to yours when I get my money handled. Love your monitors, layout, peripheals, just everything.

Cool snek

When that picture was taken I was most of the way through loading a server and I had been swapping the cables around. I only had vga at the time and no kvm in easy reach, so that meant turning the thing sideways every five seconds until I just left it like that.
>>54479703
Are you a trap?
>>54474853
Ghetto ikea table is ghetto. I have the same issue with the middle sagging from the weight of my 3 screens. Doesn't help that the thing is hollow about 3mm into the surface. I dare you to drill pilot holes for mounting your power bar and cable management system...
Please rate and give me tips thank you
>>54474853
terribly?
>>54488647
>not looking to spend more than 50
get some headphones, you are not getting decent speakers for 50.

>>54491838
Nah, MC is cool. CS is shit tho.
>>54491847
why is that? I find it mildly entertaining, even though you need gigabytes of assets to have decent looking cities
>>54491862
it's just that I don't find it to have the same freedom as in SC4.
>>54488685
