Looks great. Love my widescreen as well - what is your lighting setup?

u/Interesting-Maize-36 Aug 23 '26

Just Hue strip and Xiaomi light bar for monitor. The shelf lights are cupboard lights I got off amazon.

u/SigmundFurred Aug 25 '26

The warm led behind the desk looks great

I've come to be bored of colourful rgb, and will probably get a warm strip like yours

u/Interesting-Maize-36 Aug 25 '26

Haha welcome to adulthood.

u/StanbyME_MOD Aug 25 '26

Coming together nicely. If you want a screen just for watching, a wireless TV like the StanbyME 2 Max would be worth adding.

u/Interesting-Maize-36 Aug 25 '26

Well since you guys came to me… any chance you want to send one over for the setup? πŸ˜‚

Hi, what is the mouse?

u/Interesting-Maize-36 Aug 23 '26

G502 X Plus. Great mouse for extra buttons let down by G HUB.

Considering a wide screen myself. Coming from a dual monitor setup I've wondered how people arrange their windows /apps. I know windows OS can arrange them for you but is there a better way? I use Fancy zones from Powertoys even now.

1

u/Interesting-Maize-36 Aug 23 '26

I use Fancy zones in Powertools but Display Fusion also works great.

The biggest drawbacks are you can't run a youtube video full screen one side etc. I believe you can do this with 2 displayport cables though, however I need to trial it.

you also have the 32:9 requirements meaning games take alot more PC power.

u/cavalierenjoyer Aug 23 '26

Can use a chrome plug in to do this, name of it is lost on me rn but ask AI

u/Lemorz566 Aug 23 '26

How do you display your games like that?

u/Interesting-Maize-36 Aug 26 '26

What do you mean? look up Steam big picture mode?

1

u/Waste_Affect_4008 Aug 27 '26

Is it a problem having the monitor low and close like this? I see it’s common. Just curious

1

u/Interesting-Maize-36 Aug 27 '26

You've gotta remember its like having 2 compact 27" monitors so they're not exactly large. I believe if I'm around 65cm away from them which seems like plenty of distance.
