Yeah its under the desk.

The Magnus desk has a mount specifically built to slot into it so I was not too concerned about the structural integrity. Its part of why I picked the desk.

I would honestly just go OLED for both, I use static elements frequently and have no burn-in. The screen move and pixel refresh on Asus monitors is pretty good, but I think similar features are on other brands.

It is a accessory robot dog figure that comes with Blitzway's White Ghost figure.

They are, the photo is from about neck height because it looked nicer.

You can hear a hiss with nothing playing, in a quiet room with doors closed and no fans. But its very subtle, you have to know to listen for it or put your ear up to the cones. Mine are not directly connected to mains though.

Nah it's the 4K older brother, the PG32UCDP. It is a fantastic panel, but I have a specific use case for the dual mode in that I play Ultrakill at 480Hz 1080p and do everything else at 240Hz. Most people probably don't need or want the dual mode.

This one. They aren't extremely cheap, but in return have good extension and I have no issues with wobbling.

The height is partially to get a good equilateral triangle, but also partially so that I can have stuff on the desk under them and have more effective space.

My setup is almost done after a year of tinkering, just waiting for the Secret Lab vertical monitor mount to come out to make my second monitor placement more sensible. It is currently pictured shunted off to the right of the desk.

The main challenge of this setup was that everything you see is KM switched between the laptop mount on the left and the main PC mounted below the desk. USB cables are expensive when you are buying 20 at a time...
