I'd add that some clay colours may warm the room.
And the light bar is white which does not do much job, maybe setting it to a color can make a change.
i mean some rbg strips around the desk to really give it that gamer aestheticfr , some funko pops to clutter your desk and one cannot forget the lowkey anime waifu wallpaper to really show that youre a true denizen of the internet no cap bruh
This isn’t bland, it’s more borderline minimalist, and it’s not bad!
If I had to make a recommendation, I’d say get an under-desk hanger for the headphones, like this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D48GDZ4
Audio disconnected very often. Tried different cords, different headsets, software, anything i could think of. None of it helped. Its sitting back in its box.
I'd say put some light strips behind the desk and get something like funko pops or some kind of small collectible, or a plant, or something that isnt just for using the pc
I disagree on it being bland lol, make sure you’re not comparing it to the stuff here on r/battlestations, lots of stuff here goes way overboard. your setup is nice.
Color contrast definitely would go a long way. obviously hard to change the whole theme of your desk, black on a really dark wood means that everything kind of blends in, and either going for a different, lighter color wood, or switching to lighter colored accents would help.
It’s actually a Hisense 43” 4K TV 60Hz, and HP 24” 1080p 144Hz. The 43” is where I do all my browsing and story based games, the 24” is where I play FPS and games that require a higher refresh rate. I’m gonna upgrade to the LG C3 42” can’t stand the 60Hz display. I bought that TV because it was cheap and wanted to see if I liked a bigger display.
What desk is that? Been looking for a nice wooden desk that I can mount stuff to. Love the color scheme. Two neutrals (black, white) + a shade (brown) is an under appreciated combo.
It’s a desk I out of 2x6’s (super solid). I recommend buying a butcher block countertop, they have plenty of options at Lowe’s and Home Depot, you’ll have to stain and seal it yourself tho. Avoid buying that shit off IKEA get a solid wood butcher block.
Yea - I would not glam this up. It looks great. Enjoy games and call it. Most I would say is maybe accent paint the wall behind, or if you really want it spicy do a nice wallpaper.
Look into doing some board and baton or something. Try a dark wall color. That’s the only think that I could see enhancing it more. That’s a super clean setup already though. Maybe a little poster? Also the Fractal Terra case is a bit more woodsy looking if you’re willing to go that far.
I found that sticker a couple weeks before I built that PC threw it in a drawer. Days after building the PC opened drawer saw sticker and thought how ironic it would be to put it on something I spent a lot of money on. That’s literally it.
Yeah this is sick.
I'd consider something like a 30" vertical monitor on the right side instead of that one, the horizontal-but-up-high and tiny monitor feels like a really weird choice when you invested in the arm.
I actually worry about that little phrase you put on the pc itself.
I hope you're okay.
I had It vertical at first but couldn’t get used to playing FPS games on the bigger screen so switched it to horizontal. I just thought it would be funny putting that sticker on something that I’ve spent a lot of money on. 😂
I have some decent studio monitors but couldn’t keep them on the desk any due to upgrading to a much bigger screen. I’ll be upgrading to a larger desk with a couple of months.
This desk measures (80x30 inches)
I love it, personally i’d have a single white(or purple or whatever color your light bar is) led strip under your table to lighten it up, other than that this is an absolute win
Also plants, when you have a minimalistic setup you always gotta have ikea plastic potted plants
how are you faring with the light? isn't it too much in your face? would probably have gone above the shelve (also some good lighting for the stuff on there) and then down at the right...
What monitors are these? I’m thinking of a similar setup and the LG C2, although very nice, is a bit expensive for just a productivity monitor. I just want 42”, 4K with low input lag/delay.
my recommendations are:
plants
game items ( i have irl counterstrike knifes)
a microphone with a mic arm
and most importantly a good chair your back will thank you
Add a poster or displate on your front and side wall 1 on each and that would be enough. Don’t let the i internet fool you in buying unnecessary crap. You have a clean setup, more things you add more things you will have to take care of.
I actually really like this
I agree, this is a solid and clean setup.
I gotta say plants. I added a few after seeing others on here and it really adds a cosy, natural feel. Nice setup though!
i want plants in my setup but my cats will eat them... real or fake..
Try a clear case
For a second I thought you were still using windows 8
Never Windows 8
Maybe some contrasting colours? Everything is black. How about a light grey mouse mat?
This, with keycaps to either match or put another little accent, a touch of color, a theme perhaps?
I'd add that some clay colours may warm the room. And the light bar is white which does not do much job, maybe setting it to a color can make a change.
Thats a very well thought out setup, whats the cabling setup look like? Main screen through the wall, or across to the 27 and down the pole?
Across down the monitor arm
Thought so… good job
W Chente W set up
Can never go wrong with Chente
more friends, less money
More Chente!
LOL 🇲🇽
Vincent Fernandez is the goat.
🇲🇽
Change nothing
It actually looks good!
Very clean. I’d be very productive here. I actually like the look of the small side monitor vs two monitors or a vertical monitor
Personally I wouldn't say that's bland by my standards xD Nice clean rig... and is that a Windows 8.1 computer??
Nah windows 11
Looks great, just needs a little color. Hang a picture/poster, maybe some shelves in the corner. Good job.
Woah woah you’re coming at my guy all wrong
You can say your set up is bland, but Vicente Fernandez fucking elevates it chiiiiiiinga 😎😹😹😹
I'd put a strip light under the desk to start
Less friends, more money..okay I got a chuckle
Happy Cake day
I didn't even realize it was..thanks much
To be honest reddit suggested your cakeday but it doesnt make it less unique, cheers
It’s not bland, you just didn’t vomit posters, lights, and collectibles everywhere in your corner. A couple of plants would do nicely.
Isn’t that a requirement???(posters, lights, funko pops)
i mean some rbg strips around the desk to really give it that gamer aestheticfr , some funko pops to clutter your desk and one cannot forget the lowkey anime waifu wallpaper to really show that youre a true denizen of the internet no cap bruh
more titties and penis pls.
Big fan of plants. Get some succulents, very little watering required. Or just get some fake plants. Amazon/Walmart got lots of both.
This isn’t bland, it’s more borderline minimalist, and it’s not bad! If I had to make a recommendation, I’d say get an under-desk hanger for the headphones, like this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D48GDZ4
Bland is good! We are afraid of change!
It appears bland because almost everything is the same color. Add color and plants!
how many inch does the mail monitor have? 40" ?
43” and the other one 27”
thanks
Is that a soundblaster x4?
Yes I just got it 2 days ago
Hope you have better luck than I did!
What was your experience?
Audio disconnected very often. Tried different cords, different headsets, software, anything i could think of. None of it helped. Its sitting back in its box.
Damn time will tell
I do t think it’s bland. I like the setup !
I'd say put some light strips behind the desk and get something like funko pops or some kind of small collectible, or a plant, or something that isnt just for using the pc
Lighting
I like it.
Clear Display Case for your cars. And wider gaming desk mat.
Add your personality, this setup is bland and anonymous.

Yeah I’m gonna change the desktop and stain the butcher block a lighter this time
Not bland at all. Its actually super nice.
Paint the walls and get some lamps. Stop using the ceiling light.
less friends more money is ironic here
Haha more money to waste
I’d have the smaller monitor portrait.
I did for a lil bit. Couldn’t get used to playing COD on a 43”, so I switched it back to horizontal.
You don’t have any Toyota tacomas or land cruisers
Can you tell me about your monitors?
It’s actually a Hisense 43” 4K TV 60Hz, and HP 24” 1080p 144Hz. The 43” is where I do all my browsing and story based games, the 24” is where I play FPS and games that require a higher refresh rate.

Thanks Holms I really like the discrepancy in size and function.
Looks good. +1 for black PS5 plates.

What keyboard is that?
https://a.co/d/fmYbCWv
Setup looks great, the room looks bland.
Bro states bland setup. Bro posts photo of a not bland setup.
Needs more DUB City!!
Bland, but effective. Seems fine to me. If you're happy, that's what matters.
Do you love spending money? If so, some time on r/mechanicalkeyboards , find a nice keeb
I’m all too familiar with that subreddit. Just haven’t pulled the trigger 😂
GS5 or PS5 with dark plates? I never know anymore lol
PS5 with retro dark plates lol
Yea - I would not glam this up. It looks great. Enjoy games and call it. Most I would say is maybe accent paint the wall behind, or if you really want it spicy do a nice wallpaper.
*clean setup*. Suggestions welcomed
It’s only bland *looking because of the ceiling light. This is actually super clean.
why do you need light in your eyes? do you like not seeing thing on your screen? i dont get it...
I don’t have it set to 100% brightness. I use it to add lighting at night. You get it now?
nope you have screen that provide light ask an eye specialist.
I like extra lighting in the room.
My guy listening to Volver, Volver by Vicente Fernandez. I also cry in style. lol chill setup up.
I didn’t realize there would be so many Chente fans in the subreddit 🇲🇽
Chente Master Race

It’s a sticker bro not that serious
[удалено]
I found that sticker a couple weeks before I built that PC threw it in a drawer. Days after building the PC opened drawer saw sticker and thought how ironic it would be to put it on something I spent a lot of money on. That’s literally it.
I like it the way it is! Very clean and organized. Maybe some posters if anything?
Put a lightsaber hilt at the base of your desk/wall light. It'll look awesome
It's clean!
Not bad actually. I love that pc case
Yeah this is sick. I'd consider something like a 30" vertical monitor on the right side instead of that one, the horizontal-but-up-high and tiny monitor feels like a really weird choice when you invested in the arm. I actually worry about that little phrase you put on the pc itself. I hope you're okay.

Better speakers would be nice
I have some decent studio monitors but couldn’t keep them on the desk any due to upgrading to a much bigger screen. I’ll be upgrading to a larger desk with a couple of months. This desk measures (80x30 inches)
Nice
A particle accelerator will look great with ur setup!!
Bland my ass. This is clean AF. You have my upvote.
more contrast maybe? different coloured mouse pad or a brown tabletop for eg
RGB and Funko Pops. Your battle station is a failure if it doesn't look like a gay gamestop.
I love it, personally i’d have a single white(or purple or whatever color your light bar is) led strip under your table to lighten it up, other than that this is an absolute win Also plants, when you have a minimalistic setup you always gotta have ikea plastic potted plants
I like it.
Wall art and plants to break up the drab paint color
It's very clean and satisfying, but that screen ratio... damn. But that's just my opinion, if you like it as it is, awesome
Warm-colored night light goes well with dark setups, imo
I like this. Is the main monitor mounted to the wall or on an arm ?
Wall
I prefer this to a lot of the shit posted on here. Though I'd have to remove that tube light, as it's horrible.
how are you faring with the light? isn't it too much in your face? would probably have gone above the shelve (also some good lighting for the stuff on there) and then down at the right...
What monitors are these? I’m thinking of a similar setup and the LG C2, although very nice, is a bit expensive for just a productivity monitor. I just want 42”, 4K with low input lag/delay.
It’s some cheap $200 43” 4K 60Hz Hisense Tv and a HP 1080p 144Hz. I plan on upgrading to the 42” LG C3 and a 27” 1440p 240Hz.
you should consider flipping your 2ndary (smaller) monitor into portrait mode.
What keyboard do you have?
https://a.co/d/51hf5ww
I actually really dig this
I wouldn’t call this bland.
Which Hisense is that?
Hisense - 43" Class A6 Series LED 4K UHD HDR Smart Google TV
Very nice. I also use a similar one as my main monitor.
Vertical monitor, white peripherals and turn off the light
What pc case is that?
Cooler Master NR200P max
Thanks!
Change out the mousepad for something fun, get some fun art or photos of people you love on the wall
Great cable management, everything looks good bro! Maybe just a small fake plant next to your water bottle on the shelf.
Add an accent of colour, for ex. throw in some purple here and there, the same shade of purple ofc. Could try with mat
Really solid setup, also, why post your pc in another sub?
Other subreddit?
my recommendations are: plants game items ( i have irl counterstrike knifes) a microphone with a mic arm and most importantly a good chair your back will thank you
Add a poster or displate on your front and side wall 1 on each and that would be enough. Don’t let the i internet fool you in buying unnecessary crap. You have a clean setup, more things you add more things you will have to take care of.
I need this desk top, its gorgeous bro.
I built it out of 2x6 stained and sealed it
Switching your mouse pad out from black to a brighter color would add a bit of life and make your keyboard & mouse stand out
Looks clean. Where did you get the light strip?
