Good setup could do some cleaning, a bigger desk, some monitor mounts, and dedicate the setup to one color
I can clean desk can't get a bigger desk as that's the area
Ordering monitor mounts soon
@lusty carbon
I only just got this desk
Where shkukd I place laptop as I have 2 laptops one for watching one for streaming
Monitor mounts for sure, maybe replace that desk lamp for a monitor lamp with those wireless knobs?
Maybe a vertical stand for ur laptop.
And maybe some rgb around the the desk? I feel like a white/warm white glow would look pretty clean, even with the wood desk.
And def clean up ur desk lmaoooo
Now the laptops/PC, in college what I used to do was use an HDMI switch to switch 1 monitor between my laptop and PC. That way I could use dual screen when I need or 1 mac/1 PC
1x HDMI switch
3x Short HDMI cables
1x Vertical Laptop stand with hub
1x usb switch (if you don’t have a wireless keyboard/mouse that supports multiple connections)
And always try to route ur cables and hide them when possible, yours looks great, I usually even go as far as cleaning up wires under desk lmaoo
I still need to use my laptop as a keyboard
Does this look OK
I may get this
Yep that looks good. there are also dual spring adjustable ones if you prefer that as well.
Yes this was what is was talking about, if you were closing ur laptop and putting it on a vertical mount. That way you can switch ur peripherals between systems.
And this is to switch the screens between systems.
And I use the left one for xbox
Series s
I msink will be using one monitor for watching using one laptop and one for streaming
Windows for watching chromebook for streaming stream yard
So left chromebook right monitor watching sport
@neon meadow
That's what I mean
Oh so you need three monitors to look at simultaneously?
2 is good
Just need usb switcher
And vertical stands
One either side
you get me
And when I get pc I'll be using chromebook and pc
So pc is dual monitor
Ok lemme make a quick list of Amazon stuff that could potentially work
OK
OK I'm. In uk
I'll get those stuff with my money next week
And pc for Christmas
I'll grt back on the laptop in a minute

The wiring you can decide how you want to set that up though, doesn’t have to be 2 short and 1 long. If you already have a bunch of long HDMI cables, you can just use than and hide the switch and the wires elsewhere (like use double sided gorilla tape to tape the switch under the desk, and clean/route the wires using staples and zipties) then with a click of 2 buttons under your desk, you’ll be using a different system on one monitor.
Also since you have a dual monitor, I would recommend a long monitor lamp that you can clamp in the center, if you want.

I've seen that one and was thinking of that
I'll get back in 2 secs
so the light ill get
but i do love my light now
should i straighten my monitorsd
Yep, the list above should cover everything and should be good so essentially you can use 3 systems. Your Chromebook, Laptop, and Xbox. Just connect everything according to how you want. (Ex. Left-Chromebook, Right-Windows/Xbox)
And yea if you already like your lamp, no need to get another one then 😁
Yea straighten your monitors, when you get your monitor mounts. Adjust it how you want.
Honestly, just shop around Amazon and see what you think might be nice to add to the aesthetic. That’s what I do, I just see it, imagine it on my setup, and get it.
so ill get the usb switch'
and the laptop mount
as chromebook stays under desk
@neon meadow
Decent idea
Get a laptop mount for the streaming laptop and close the lid and hide the other one somewhere (Put the settings so it turns on when you press a key)
