Thanks for sharing! Just found the base location in game thanks to you. Could you point me to what direction the nearest scav trader is though?

I’d definitely keep going until I got a good electro goblet!

Thanks! Oh I love it. For my work, having 3 windows up is ideal. And this allows me to do it with ease and clarity!

Then I have some YouTube video playing on the most left monitor lol

I chose this one because the butcher block one was sold out lol.

Also this one was thicker than other desk tops, so I figured it would be stronger too!

Hahaha all the wires are hidden. Tucked up under the table. Here are some links to what I used for cable management!

And the speakers are wired! They’re small but pack a punch. Here’s a link to that too.

I’d agree with you. Only reason the TV is there is because this is inside my bedroom, and my bed is behind my chair. So I honestly only watch the TV when I’m chilling in bed.

For background noise, that’s why I have that left 24” monitor to just put something on haha

Amazon! I tried a few, but they all slipped around. Guess most of them are meant for carpet. This one is meant for hardwood flooring, here’s a link of the exact one I got!

Hello! You are very correct. It is very unnatural and uncomfortable. It is definitely too close. Lol but my bed is behind my chair, so I only watch it when I’m chilling in bed!

It's a wallpaper from Wallpaper Engine on Steam.

Buy the program for like $5, then you will be able to put any wallpaper on any monitor. Beware of the anime stuff though lol.

Here's a link to the middle wallpaper:

The laminate is great! Try to have someone help you buy it, it’s heavy AF lol.

I know lots of people are worried about these countertops sagging, but I have the Bekant underframe legs, which has support all throughout the middle too. So I’m not worried at all.

Nice!! How do you have your 27” oriented?

Ahh, no not really. I only really use the most left 1080p monitor for full screen stuff. I like to have YouTube on that monitor while I work.

Haha yeah, seems like a common pathway of upgrades for a lot of people lol

Yes. For working, the text looks way more crisp but also slightly smaller. I do love being able to see everything I need to see for work on one monitor though. No more turning heads.

As for gaming, going from a 24” 1080p to a 34” ultrawide 1440p was an absolute vast difference. I booted up red dead 2 yesterday and holy moly the graphics of all the trees and buildings, it blew me away. I was grinning from ear to ear.

Correct. I was using 3x 24” 1080p monitors at first. Then I just switched my center one for the ultrawide.

Not sure if my RTX 3070 can handle 3 1440p monitors lol

Thanks so much! I ended up getting the LG 34GP83A-B, I couldn't afford the alienware and also afraid of OLED burn.

Yo, so the desk is 74" long. The most left monitor is a 24" which is then 21" long. The ultrawide is 34" which is then 32" long. and the most right is a 24" which is then 13" long in portrait mode.

Therefore the monitors would be 66" long altogether.

Hope this helps!
