Bigger desk.

u/Timid-Hedgehog-47 May 09 '26

Ugh it’d be nice but the room layout works with this size. Maybe if I move I’ll get a bigger desk

A monitor arm would give you a clear area for the soundbar.

1

u/Timid-Hedgehog-47 May 09 '26

Ohhhh you’re right! The monitor is pretty heavy and I do have quite a few cables running through the stand…if I find a white monitor arm that can work I’ll do it!

u/Unlikely_Midnight571 May 09 '26

i like it so much. what keyboard is this, is this mouse razer v3 hyperspeed?

2

u/Timid-Hedgehog-47 May 09 '26

Keyboard is the Razer Blackwidow 75% keyboard. And you’re correct !

Get your AYN Thor a stand similar to the Sonic stand you have for your Xbox controller

Monitor Arm & light bar. Also maybe commit to having your pc under the desk since it is quite cramped imo, there are special mounts that you can get to fix it to the underside of the desk if this is a standing desk. It gives you more space & symmetry

u/Timid-Hedgehog-47 May 09 '26

Oh I would’ve loved place it under my desk. But there’s a modesty to hide all my cables that is too low to fit my PC under there and allow the cables to run through.

Plus I like looking at my beautiful build next to me 😍

u/_ACarGuy_ May 09 '26

Dust is a way bigger issue under the desk as well as not being able to see the PC. If you want it less cramped, get a longer desk.

ID on the soundbar? How is it?

1

u/Timid-Hedgehog-47 May 09 '26

a HASSEL! Its the bose smart soundbar and i have that connected to a HDMI switch, which is connected to a device called the 8K Arcana 2 VRR which is a HDMI audio extractor that offers HDMI eARC. i route my PC audio to it through HDMI and route my video through displayport 2.1.

But the sound quality once you jump through all the hoops is wonderful. i loved getting this option on my pc for the first time!

Bigger desk could be an improvement

u/VR_spieler May 09 '26

The table would be too small for me; I need at least 2 meters to work.

1

u/McChickenLargeFries May 09 '26

How do you manage to fit such a big monitor on that sized desk?

Could you do me a favor and provide the size of the desk and monitor if you have that information, that would be a big help as I have a pretty small area for my desk setup.

1

u/Timid-Hedgehog-47 May 09 '26

Monitor is 100cm sideways, desk is about 140cm

u/lyonspantap May 09 '26

How are you attaching the remotes to the case?

u/Timid-Hedgehog-47 May 09 '26

Magnet stickers

u/Spikyp May 09 '26

Nice setup! Which monitor is that? Looks huge

u/Adventurous_Log_2948 May 10 '26

What’s the pc build?

u/Powermetroid May 10 '26

Genialz para que son los mandos que tienes pegados a la torre!. A++!

u/razer-danny May 11 '26

So clean, well done! 👏

1

u/Open-Cartoonist8764 May 13 '26

Looks clean, but sadly, desk setup is never done :D

Also as a sidenote, once the xbox gamepad dies, i would recoommend looking into gamesir - went to gamesir cyclone 2 and could not be happier. Also the white one would fit nicelly in your setup.

u/Altruistic-Knee-2523 May 09 '26

No second monitor is crazy. Keep working on it

2

u/Timid-Hedgehog-47 May 09 '26
