Hi Christn96!

honestly just alibaba, they had disc rugs and i was able to upload a custom image and they did it. i don't really have a link but i can say after shipping it costed about 100 bucks
Clean up the shelf's clutter, or move the setup a bit more on the right to have some negative space from the shelf.
Are the ETB boxes opened? Then you can get a binder to remove some bulk and store away boxes or things you don’t need in the closet
No, not at all! You don’t have to throw the boxes away if you don't want to, and you can keep them in the closet. I think a better way to display them would be via binder or some display and keep the duplicate cards in the ETB boxes stored in a closet
I can move the ETB’s sometime, but how’s this for starters? Some cable cleanup - unsure how to clean the cables coming from the top of the monitors to the PC - tried to hide with some plants. Cleaned up my cabinets. https://imgur.com/a/I67dcmX
Looks much better! You need to get a more extended display port or have the monitor arm closer to the desk center for easier management. You can then route the wires through the arm with zip ties or velcro ties

This is the desk. It works for me, it's a tad wobbly but I'm on carpet so it doesn't have a impact on me but on tile I think this would be a nightmare, honestly.
To me, it's too cluttered.
- Doors for that nook.
- Hide the sub.
- Shift the desk right. So, it isn’t on top of the nook.
- Mount the microphone arm on the right.
- Set the computer sideway. On a shelf centered over the desk.
- Maybe instead you could get a side table which matches the desktop. To set the computer on. Without additional clutter on top. Placing the sub on the lower shelf of the side table.
you need to figure out your color scheme. If it's white, you got to go white instead of having all that other stuff. There is too much going on.
With your desk, I think a black set up will go better however, if you want to go white, change your keyboard and the keyboard cable to white. Replace your desk mat with Razer Pro XXL one which is a clean gray desk mat. Also get rid of your floor mat in that set up, it's a cool floor mat but is too chaotic.
I personally think the rug (which is cool in isolation) completely ruins the aesthetic of the desk, maybe get some doors for the bookshelf aswell as that might clean up the mess in your peripheral vision.
The desk itself and all your gear/cables are fine, I think it’s more the things around the desk.
Also a tiny thing, get a cable for the mic that’s the same colour as the mic arm, and run it straight rather than coiling, it’s surprising how much cleaner it makes things look.

W2C Rug?? Where to buy?
honestly just alibaba, they had disc rugs and i was able to upload a custom image and they did it. i don't really have a link but i can say after shipping it costed about 100 bucks
The rug is dope!
I’ve bought rugs like this from TikTok creators lol. Random ppl making rugs in their garages.
Clean up the shelf's clutter, or move the setup a bit more on the right to have some negative space from the shelf. Are the ETB boxes opened? Then you can get a binder to remove some bulk and store away boxes or things you don’t need in the closet
The ETB boxes are opened, I could definitely toss the bulk. You think keeping one of every box is a bad idea? 😂
Not at all! I keep one of every ETB I buy, too. I have my favourites displayed as a back drop in my book shelf.
No, not at all! You don’t have to throw the boxes away if you don't want to, and you can keep them in the closet. I think a better way to display them would be via binder or some display and keep the duplicate cards in the ETB boxes stored in a closet

I also did move my desk a tad to the right. Not a lot, but it was done

that's a really cool rug, where did you get it from? do they have other designs?
Where’d ya get the rug, matey?
It was meh till I noticed the silent hill 😍
Where do you get that giant CD?
Other than cable management that’s a tidy setup, What desk is that? I’ve been looking for a good electric standing desk

Thanks!
Where did you get rug and do they come in bigger size?
Set it on fire
A little bit of cable management under the horizontal monitor should do just fine. You have a sick setup.
Desk-wise I’d tidy up the cables a bit and that’s about all. I like it
[Fractal Design North](https://www.fractal-design.com/products/cases/north/) or a similar case would be a huge difference I think
Although there is nothing wrong with that Be Quiet base 500 D/FX.
that's true, but the fractal design would fit OPs aesthetic and blend in a bit
Monitors?
With the white walls and gray carpet, a white legged with ash or maple color looking wood computer desk would look good. And some ambient lighting.
Wooden slates behind desk maybe?
I'm going to join the gang here and remind you of how amazing that rug is! I would love a Resident Evil 2 version.
Looks fine, tidy up the cables and get some ambient lighting, I use Govee behind monitor light bars for ambient warm lighting.
Awesome rug

I would put some cool framed art diagonally from the right to the left going up.
love that rug my friend u got taste
That rug is bad ass. Where you get? r/retroconsolemodders

It's perfect the way it is.... Aside from the lack of a chair or speakers.
Need more ~~cowbell~~ rug.
Not a silent hill fan but the rug is incredible. Pure gold.
Hide the trash can icon on the desktop
That rug is sick, holmes.
Maybe get rid of the tacky rug? I love a lot of games, but it never occurred to me to get the disc on a rug 😐
Get a chair
I have the exact same mouse mat lol
I personally think the rug (which is cool in isolation) completely ruins the aesthetic of the desk, maybe get some doors for the bookshelf aswell as that might clean up the mess in your peripheral vision.

I'd say get a coiled cable for your keyboard
I could just switch the one going to the mic to the keyboard and vice versa
That is a wicked mat! Very creative. Nice setup too!
Thanks BigBlackCockSleeve
👉😉👉
