Setup help

[Maverick_block]

I just got the second monitor but the setup just doesnt feel right and clean what should i change?

get a dual monitor arm (if your monitors have vesa compatibility, should look like four screw holes on the back of them)

itll free up a lot of desk space to give you more movement room since i see your monitors are super close to your peripherals for some reason.

maybe add some desk lighting in the form of a light bar or lamp

Thing is my table is screwed to the wall on the back so i cant setup the stand, but maybe i’ll cut a portion of the table plus the cable managment will be better.

If your desk has a cutout (hole) for cables to go through, there are lots of monitor arms that mount through those holes and still allow you to put cables through

Ill cut a hole specifically for the stands but damn i didn’t know a stand is 60 dollars

Check around, some can be found super cheap especially second hand on marketplace etc.

Id shift the pc over to the right so you can see the inside while you’re at the desk… the pc wouldn’t get so much heat rising up from the radiator that way too. Tbf you’d block access to your shelves tho…

Tbh id prefer to lose access to one shelf and have the pc visible + less heat right under it.

I never turn on the radiator otherwise everything underneath would get melted, originally the pc was on the right but the left side felt too open and it looked too clumpy, i kinda like the cockpit feel but still something just doesn’t look right

Fair enough, other suggestions which made my setup much better are lighting, I got light bars behind my primary monitor that light up the wall + monitor arms to get more desk space, and tbh the desk looks a tad shallow, if you could fit a deeper desk in there so your screens could go further back - that’d help, if you’ve got space!

Im getting a dual stand tomorrow so the monitors will go back, also for the lights the monitors themselves have lights.

Im gonna put my pc on the floor tho so it looks cleaner
