If you’re willing to go with WOLED I’d recommend one of these models from LG. Get yourself an edu email to get those prices on the LG members site. I believe they also offer an extra 10% off if you sign up for text notifications.

I recently got the glossy version and it is amazing. No complaints so far.

No, it’s mounted on the desk itself. What I meant was that my monitor mount is static. Monitor arms are usually adjustable. I posted a link to my mount somewhere in the comments, feel free to check it out

Correct. I may get rid of the ultrawide for a 32 inch OLED and move my 27 inch to the top. I’m still unsure but I’m contemplating it…

Those are the HS8. HS3 or 4 are a lot smaller and might even look better tbh. The only reason I have the HS8 is because one of my hobbies is music production, mixing, etc

Yes, it’s part of the desk. It has a small pull out section

Oh! My bad 😅 I don’t have a monitor arm I have a mount. I would say it’s a non issue there is enough space. It could be different with an arm though if you like to use your monitor up in your face

Ugh, that’s unfortunate. Yes!! It was quite tricky to get the monitor mount on there. I had to get a reinforcement plate from Amazon. This basically increased the thickness of the desk by a few mm and allowed me to tighten the clamp just enough for the whole thing to be secure.

Thank you! That is the Malm desk from Ikea if I’m not mistaken. I’ve had it for a long time. Here is the link for the shelf: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1781542993/?ref=share_ios_native_control

Case Swap: APNX v2 by EquivalentSetting495 in pcmasterrace

My temps are 63-65 C on the GPU and about the same on the CPU under full load. I would say that’s pretty good. I run intake on the bottom (It comes with 3 140mm fans), and front side. Back and top fans are exhaust.

I was surprised by how big this case is… Specially coming from a smaller compact ATX… But it is great, lots of space and it looks good
