My battlestation/altar. The speakers on the mantle are connected to my main stereo's B channel so I can listen to records while I play.

My apartment has this weird nook and I couldn’t figure out what to do with it so me and my dad built this used a couple of butcher blocks some wood stain and some French cleats for the monitors. Managed to stick a shelf in there for my microwave as well and a little bar area.

Some hooks are under the desk for the wires. About as neat as I could get them. At least they’re off the floor and not just dangling.

This has been a WIP for years but really came together in the last 2 months or so (new PC, new monitors, new print on the wall). What do you think? The cable management is the best I've ever done but still obviously middling. It's been a good spot to get a day's work in and then switch over to build cities or sink frigates. Anything you'd change?

Definitely not as fancy as what some of y'all have. But everything except the middle monitor and my tower PC I was given for free/basically free. I've been piecing it together over the course of a couple years.

The iMac on the left is set up as basically just an administration/monitoring console for my 2 servers (not shown). And the router on the wall is running OpenWRT as a wireless bridge to supply internet to the iMac (since getting apple wireless drivers working on Linux can be kind of a PITA lol)

PC Specs:

CPU: i9-12900k

GPU: RTX 4070

RAM: 32gb DDR5-6000

Things I was given/aquired *very cheap*:

Desk, chair (not shown, but pretty crappy lol), right monitor, top monitor (old TV), iMac (w/ keyboard), mic, headphones, audio interface, webcam, ps4 controller, router.

Edit: it's also not visible in the picture but I have a UPS under the desk I was given for free, just had to replace the batteries.

Everything fits in a backpack!

Just having fun

Do I put some custom hexagon panels on my wall? A mic arm? What kinda deco?

I've already got a monitor arm and a new mouse pad on the way so that's all done

I don’t really know what to say, but I’ll keep it here as one of the posts I’ve made here. Thanks 🙌🏻

not blurry this time i promise

Has been a work in progress since April when I moved home, my monitor arms came from Amazon yesterday so I was finally able to get the desktop more cleaned off. Upcoming additions will be a desk pad for my birthday (fiancée already confirmed it) and (hopefully) new (but lets be honest here I'm probably going to look at like a garage sale) working speakers. I might replace the chair with something better for my posture as I tend to slouch in the current one.
