Overview:
I designed this desk and my Dad and I built it out of ambrosia maple. I absolutely love it.
Corner light on
This sides for gaming
LG 29" ultrawide
Viewsonic monitor for YouTube and Netflix
Pok3r
Corsair M65
This sides for homework
Inside the rig:
i5-6600
MSI Z170A
NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 970
Crucial Ballistix Sport 16gb
NZXT S340
3 of these sturdy brackets keep this thing up! My dads friend owns a company called Lane Mechanical and he made these. They look absolutely spectacular.
Here are the plans I started with. This was the second draft, my original didn't have shelves on the wall. I ended up having extra wood so I added shelves. I am a Mechanical Engineering student and thought this was a good time to practice.
I finished the desk with danish oil and polyurethane and dyed some wood filler green. It turned out pretty nicely.

Why dye the wood filler green?

It must be nice to be rich... and have leisure time

Hilarious part of all this is I know you're still going to buy a Switch. Don't worry, I have a similar setup, and mine's preordered.

You're not fooling me - this is actually a 1/3 scale model!

I see Zelda BOTW wallpaper, but no Nintendo console. Are you gonna buy the Switch?

It's lovely to see someone's parents support their children's gaming, my parents think playing video games is like using drugs... +1

your first mistake was placing your pc on the desk instead of putting it under the stairs in the next room. keeps the noice out you see

I'm told having a monitor above eye level is bad for your neck and general ergonomics. Sweet keyboard, though

You only buy a clear case pc with LED's once!

You didn't define dimensions, so I can't steal this...

All these posts just make me sad. I've never played a video game in my life before because I can't afford a PC or console

Ok I am posting on a PC but it is an 11 year old Intel pentium that can't even run a 720p youtube video

Everything is cheap if you steal it

Surely the big screen is better for gaming?
KronksChin
My guess is that it has a longer response time, compared to the main monitors. Also the monitor is at a better height imo.
Bearhugger70
The height can be changed ;) but I guess response times are a consideration... I must be a filthy casual! :D

That wood is beautiful. Also, maybe you need more monitors
BeardedAssassin
Another dozen? That'll do nicely.

I have 3 and have in the past concidered going to 5 in a 3 horizontal and 2 below them outlined on the outside edges

I've been running two 27 inch for a while. OLED TV would be twice as tall, same width. Waiting for OLED quality 144hz maybe 35inch monitors

Mmm, true

3+ 1 over the top is so mainstream and engineering it on my custom desk would be harder

That's awesome! I have a Donald Trump Funko Pop doll. Not because I like him, because it's GD hilarious.
LargeHoman
I like how his hands are bigger on the Funko Pop than they are in real life.

Hahah I wasn't one for the same reason. The fact they have Campaign Funkos is just hilarious to me
