Whats your desk set up look like?

I’m in the market for a stand up desk, probably getting an Autonomous desk. Looked at the Bekant from Ikea, its the updated Galant which is my current desk. Priced going to its sit/stand legs and the Autonomous desk is cheaper.

Current Set up

Just wanna see other peoples desks to get an idea for my next one. My Galant is going to my office, I need it’s larger area there more so than at home.

PC is a 6700k with an H100, 32gb ram,Strix 1070 with a NZXT G10 and H110 512gb 950 pro, 1TB 850 Evo, 6TB WD Drive for backups, and my home security feed’s DVR. Mobo is a Z170i Pro Gaming.

Just wanna get ideas before I go sit/stand, see if there’s a desk someone has that may work.

Don’t think my setup will work for you, it’s my coffee table with usually my MBP, a few iPads, various HDs, and occasionally a few tools just sitting on it. Sometimes there are two or three MBPs if I need to bring client computers home with me.

Just trying to get ideas is all.

I’ll admit my desk is huge, a PITA to move, and is an even bigger PITA to set up.

Mine was too, well aside from my drink, and a lint roller for my mouse pad.

Looks like identical monitors?

I can’t go that small. The Galant was my first desk that I actually bought. It’s big, and I love all the space it has.

Do those chair mats help? My office has carpet and if I didn’t own the place, I would be worried about the carpet. Its a perfect ring of pushed down carpet under my chair.

I’ve always had one. Whether it was in the “dining room” or a bedroom, always had a desk and always loved them.

I feel like this chair needs some kind of feces processing system for all the shitposting you do.

Mine’s pretty close to yours but I’ll try and take a picture anyways (tomorrow when I’m at home)

Its the Ikea Galant with 2 monitors on a 45 dollar stand off amazon.

I like it, but I’ll miss it’s space.

i am not a heathen, thus I do not use a standing desk.

People who use those are weird and make me uncomfortable. Much like standing behind a desk all day, instead of sitting behind one.

Well right, I use the breakfast nook. But it isn’t a “desk” you know?

Yep. Two HP 27es monitors. Got them for $130 each on Black Friday.

I know what you mean about big desks. I love them. My last desk was a glass L-shape desk that I used for 10-11 years. But I didn’t like that it enabled me to be sloppy. It gave me a lot of space to put clutter on. I went to a smaller desk and it’s great.

The mat helps a bit, but the one I got is a little too thin. The chair kind of digs into the mat and makes it harder to roll around.

No, its not an actual desk, but a desk is anything that has a PC on it on a regular basis.

I ascribe to the Albert Einstein theory of the messy desk. And this is actually fairly clean. I can’t remember the last time I actually wrote on my desk. This is what Einstein’s desk looked like on the day he died:

Ah, my desk usually looks like the pic. Other than some snacks, or a drink on.

I wipe it down once a week and thats it.

I just built a little standing desk in the corner to put my iMac on... this probably doesn’t help does it?

Just upgraded my desk a few weeks ago. I was on a cheap rubbermaid table but now I have a proper desk to use (and I can mount my G27 to it to play racing games!). I love having the L shaped desk as I can have a video going on my monitor while I work on my laptop or vice-versa.

My PC is a Dell XPS 15 (one of the first batch of late 2015 9550 models) with a 6700HQ, 16GB of ram, and a 512GB SSD. Handles all the school work and gaming I need it to.

I can barely see the Mac.

I’ve been looking at those sit/stand desks. That way when I can, I’ll stand and when I’m gaming, sit.

I’d love something about like that with a little bigger footprint.

Sure an L shaped desk limits you, but the space alone, its worth it.
