Show us your gaming pad!

Nice setup Tekno

Here's the shots of my gaming pad. I'm behind on the sharing, no?

Here's the pretty pic (colors look good.)


Here's the secret feature of monitor 2

(Why yes, that is a Roku TV from Sharp, 32" so it'd fit on my desk)

Here's in normal light with my STO stuff up and running.


Lastly, here's in adjusted light so you can actually see my screens.


Bonus feature: keyboard changes colors.

So Cool thanks for sharing. i really want to have a dual monitor set up.. i just never have the spare cash to get another monitor.
Im guessing your not a big fan of Zelda :p

I changed the set up of my living room last Friday, so this is currently my gaming corner. And yes, that is a map of Tamriel on the window :P

Sooo clean - my main computer desk is so messed up :-)

#SWCsale

I would show mine but well its a hive for my medications, the catch all for somereason for my childrens stuff and paperwork.  It is a desk with a computer and lots of clutter always cluttered even after cleaning it spotless within an hour its a mess again.

Here's a link to my original gaming rig setup setup, but the PC was getting a little dated and couldn't even run the new lighting upgrade in STO, so I blew the vacation budget on upgrading my gaming rig and a new 34" curved-display :)

That curved monitor is sexy. How much did that set you back?

$1,400 ... steep, I know, but it's awesome.  Only issue that a few games (Starcraft 2, for example), don't allow the ultra wide-screen resolution, so you end up with black bars on either side of the screen.  I'm given to understand that it was by design so that the wider field of view didn't give people a competitive advantage in a competitive game, but it kind of sucks all the same.  That's the only one I've really had problems with so far, mind you.

So I figured it was about time I post my setup here. Sometime ago, I talked myself into splurging on an Uplift Height Adjustable Standing Desk. I sprung for the 60" desktop with the Eco Curve. I received a new monitor for Christmas that allowed me to switch to the dual monitor arm. My old monitor was too heavy for the arm to support.

Sitting:


Standing:


When standing, I can just push the monitors up a little bit so they're eye level. Switching to the monitor arm has also freed up a ton of desktop space which is great. I don't stand up as much as I wish I did, but I'm committed to committing myself to that goal. :P

Before, the only wire that hung off my desk was the power cord. The rest of the cords were neatly (stuffed) in the power management tray. With the new monitor, I lost my speaker bar and had to switch to these old speakers that come with a crap ton of wires.

your so neat and orginised, I like your backpack too. these height adjustable desks are getting really popular lately. lucky!
Im sad we dont get to everybodys chairs though in these recent uploads

Yeah, it never actually looks like that. Had a bunch of stuff just sitting on the floor while I took the pictures to make it look better.

Very cool @NicholasJohn16... I'd been looking at one of those desks too, but haven't taken the plunge yet.  Nice setup!

Great setup, Nick!

Last time I posted in here was a couple years ago. Since I recently did a full PC upgrade and reconfigured the workstation while I was at it, I figured it's time to necro this thread! :P  The antique furniture I was using just wasn't cutting it anymore, so instead I went with a large folding table and a wall mount for the screen. It's a very basic surface, but it gives me more real estate and...LEG ROOM OMG!





Note my "second monitor" underneath the big one: an old Android tablet (running KitKat)! There's a nifty little app you can get from the Google Play store for $7 that lets you use your droid phone or tablet as just another Windows monitor, letting you mouse, type, extend the screen, drop apps on it etc. just like a regular monitor. And now, the specs:

And of course no nerdly workstation would be complete without some toys, so I have the Fourth Doctor, Yoda, a TARDIS USB hub, and a TOS Enterprise desk lamp. There's also a Starfleet logo on the tower, but you can barely see it here.

Nice setup, Tekn0!  The PC is a beast... should keep you going for a few years to come!
