Recently built a pc and figured I should update my setup as well! Added a xeneon edge display to the setup and some lighting (between the PC and the desk, I never want to install another LED strip again).

Proud of how much functionality I was able to integrate in the desk! Some fun things about the setup:

- Fully synced PC+desk RGB that reacts to screen or audio
- Hidden always on Bluetooth speaker underneath the desk
- Thunderbolt 5 Hub for one wire connection to my MacBook (hidden on the side) and monitor
- KVM switch to change peripherals between my play and work devices
- Dedicated WiFi router for PCVR streaming
- Mini Stream deck next to desk height controls
- Hidden switch 2 behind the monitor

And so many hours wrangling cables and figuring out the best way to config everything 😤 I’m done for now!

I've been thinking of replacing the hex lights I have on the wall because they come off as a bit tacky to me. Is this opinion shared or should I keep them? If I was to remove them, what could I add to the wall so it doesn't look empty (or add while keeping the hex lights)? Also wondering if there's any other changes I could make, mostly for the area above my top shelf which looks a bit bare. Any feedback is welcome

After converting our attic into a new bedroom for my son and a compact office for myself, this is the tech I’m using every day for work, gaming, and my hobbies.

Desk Setup
AOC AGON Pro AG324UX
Xiaomi Pad 7

PC
Case: Lian Li A3 Wood (mounted under the desk)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070
Motherboard: MSI B850M Gaming Plus WiFi
3D Printing
Bambu Lab P1S

A compact space, but it has everything I need for working from home during the day and gaming, 3D printing, and other creative projects in the evenings.

Just finished setting up everything, what can I add into the mix, what would you change

Update

Main PC:

Arch Linux + KDE Plasma (Wayland)

Removed secondary GPU due to issues

Also running:

Ryzen 3700U laptop with 16GB RAM

Galaxy Tab A 2018 tablet

Using Deskflow to share keyboard/mouse between my Linux desktop and Windows laptop. The tablet is mainly used for monitoring, YouTube, and extra screen space.

The only Windows apps I still use are Creality Slicer and FrostWire since they don't work properly on Arch. Everything else I need is done on Linux.

I also use USB/IP and Syncthing across both systems for sharing devices and keeping everything synced.

Still trying to figure out a proper way to use the tablet as a secondary display with keyboard/mouse input.

I do EVERYTHING at my desk!

I game, build Gundam, and craft at this one desk it has been my safe space for better part of a decade! My PC has been my rock since 2018 it's not much and I know the pops are gross to a lot of people but they are mine and I love it!

I kind of also hate my speaker placement but im thinking of mounting them to wall instead. That white wall above is a projector screen

I don’t think my setup can even be called a battle station.
I’m honestly lost on what to do with it, so I come you the people of Reddit for help.

got me a new laptop.

Since my last post, I've added the KVM switch, Yamaha speakers, a wider under-desk tray, and 8bitdo controller. I'm finally getting into ESO now that it's Steam Deck Verified. The Steam Deck handles all my gaming. The M2 Mac Mini is a Jellyfin server (media is on a NAS - not pictured) and occasional video editing workstation. The 2010 Macbook is now a linux laptop and is basically just a writer deck. The Dell underneath it is my work laptop.

Hardware List:

TCL 55" QM7K

1440p Monitor (Left)

1080p Monitor (Right)

Playstation 5 Pro

Steelseries Apex Pro Gen 3

Logitech G502 Hero (Wired)

HyperX Cloud Alpha (Wireless)

Alienware X17R2 (2023)

Alienware Specs:

Intel Core i9-12900H

RTX 3080 - 16GB GDDR6

The laptop all the way on the left is from work, so disregard.

Tried my best to cable manage the hell out of my setup. I will post a picture in the comments.

Thank you, everyone! 😀
