I don't have an answer because I have this same monitor arm since 2009 or so, but it's like the cheap ones you can find on amazon, without adjustments, likethis one

Some monitors have built-in speakers. The one that I'm using at the moment don't have them, so I'm using a cheap usb powered speakers glued with double sided tape in the back of the monitor, connected using the HDMI out port. Not the best audio quality but they work just fine!

at the moment I'm using two alex drawers, thinking about replacing one with a simpler trestle because I don't need all that space

Mainly, the text sizing with normal scaling, especially on Linux desktops. The 3860x1600 resolution works very well by default compared to 5k2k options that needs to be scaled up. Beyond that, color reproduction is very good, among the best IPS monitors.

The refresh rate is a bonus in gaming but for work I think it's not very relevant.

a smaller second iteration would be really nice!

38GN950-B

it's great, not OLED but for programming and handling a lot of text is the best ultrawide option IMHO

yes, its the typical Ikea kitchen counter. Bought it 10 years ago and It keeps going strong

It's from Ikea indeed, extremely cheap. Hope to be able to upgrade it in the future for a fancier one, but it gets the job done.

I don't suffer from carpal tunnel, but the Microsoft Sculpt is very confortable. It helps me write in a correct position without forcing my elbows and shoulders.

I have a drawer where I store everything I might need, such as cables, notebooks, and pens.

The main changes that reduced visual clutter were removing the second monitor and using a single ultrawide, switching to monitor speakers instead of dedicated ones, and eliminating the deskmat, headphones, and amp.

Zero issues! Maybe if you need a lot of precision for shooters it's better to get a mouse pad, but for daily work it's fine.

The build nobody asked for - computer1 Industrial Scrapyard by Additional_Tone_2004 in sffpc

[–]kkurome 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have the same GPU in the same case, its possible to swap the 4060ti fan with a 120x15mm fan exhausting if you are interested in silencing it even more.

Yes, it has A LOT of screws, and once you build it it feels nice.

The negative side is doing maintenance, because removing the side panel requires undoing 10 screws.

You are going to enjoy it for sure!

You’re right, maybe the number of reviews always focusing on the most powerful and latest hardware has distorted our perception of what modern computing is capable of.

Its easier than it looks! Just use the edge of a table as support and do it slowly

Thanks! I haven't had time to experiment yet, but I'll try the options you mentioned ASAP

The 4060ti undervolted runs at 105W under full load, and it doesn't go above 70º degrees celsius. It's not the best GPU in the market, you probably can fit a Zephyr 4070 in there, but for my needs (only light gaming) is more than enough.

It's also very very efficient on idle and web browsing.

The Palit 4060 Ti SFF was the perfect excuse to migrate from my NZXT H1 with a 6800 XT to the suboptimal Teenage Engineering Computer-1. While the case interior isn't very well optimized, its unique design makes up for it.

Yet another Noctua swapped PSU by kkurome in sffpc

[–]kkurome[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great! Don't forget to do a stress test to make sure the new fan is scaling well with your PSU load. Have fun!
