We have Brittany from Florida and her super cozy custom office setup that broke the internet. I don’t know what’s more cool, the actual setup or her occupation, she works in a pathology lab where she dissects human organs for cancer and those autopsy. That’S a pretty cool job. So this entire setup was built from scratch and it’s used for pretty much everything from gaming through screaming content creation and video editing. Brittany decided to go with a cubicle design for her setup so that it fits in her office and it’s actually very creative on how she set this up. So, let’s start dissecting it first off. All three countertops are made out of melamine boards, which she cut to fit dimensions of her office, and then she skinned them in bamboo wallpaper. To give it a nice look and feel she also added cable raceways at the edge of the countertops and put RGB strips inside. That’S actually the first time. I’Ve seen that, on the show, very creative, all three of the desks are being supported by two Ikea beste units, which are mounted against the wall, which gives off a nice floating design. The other two sides of the tables are being supported by an alux drawer for our main setup and a dresser for the other.
I got ta say I’m really loving the layout over here. So the main setup has dual Alienware monitors that are mounted against a headboard. So the headboard is actually from Ikea.
It’S the linen tabletop that she used for both the head boards and her set up with an IKEA lack shelf up top. She has three keyboards in the entire setup too, which are custom built. We got the Alienware aw 768 with custom key caps and a custom 60 % keyboard up top. I do love those blank key caps and the acrylic case combo with RGB lighting. It looks really cool. Aradia she’s got logitech speakers that are also mounted on the headboard.
With the sub woofer mounted against the wall underneath the desk when she’s streaming, she would use the HyperX cloud tubes with the blue Yeti microphone. That’S mounted on the wall shelf, okay, so that’s the main setup where she screams on Twitch and edits her videos. It’S currently being powered by her new semi water-cooled, PC that she just built a few weeks ago inside the thermal tape, Corp III case.
We got the rise in 720, 700 X and the EVGA GTX 1080. It looks like we got a bit of a stormtroopers vibe going on here with a full 10 inch display, which she uses to monitor her system temps. Now the setup adjacent to her main one is used for console gaming with a 35 inch vizio tv.
She does have an Xbox that she stores in the cabinet, but she doesn’t use it as much as it appears for slim. That’S. On top of the shelf. I really love how she designed this area with organization and mine.
She has a place to store her games and her camera gear, along with the controllers which are mounted against the headboard. You can see how much planning and attention to detail went into designing this setup and I love it. And finally, the third setup is for her laptop and watching videos. She has a 65 inch Samsung TV mounted against the wall, so she can cozy up in her gaming, chair and watch videos with her dog there’s, even a drop down projector, which doubles as window blinds.
I mean this setup has lots of creativity and personality. I absolutely love it and I think she did a great job balancing the lighting across the entire setup. Britany congratulations on receiving the 23rd seal of approval. I know you’re watching so tossin EVM on Twitter to claim your prize. Congratulations up.
Next is Helen from Germany and her setup. Alright, so she’s using a corner desk, set up with two lemon tabletops and to alex’ yours with a center storage unit for support. She did keep the surface very clean and organized and decided to mount both monitors and even the speakers on a desk mount, but doing so leaves that entire right side of the desk kind of empty for peripherals. We got the courser strafe RGB keyboard, with brown switches paired with the m65 Pro RGB Mouse, I’m guessing the reason why she put the PC in a corner like that is to avoid blocking off the right speaker and it actually looks better that way, because you can Still see inside the PC and the cables are hidden against the wall. Speaking of cables, everything seems to be managed well underneath here, with the help of a few cable clips and velcro straps.
I do love the small modifications that Helen did underneath the desk, like adding an optical drive inside the storage unit, very clever and a USB hub on the side of the drawer. But what I really want to know is where you got that barber chair from, and that looks like something a mafia leader sits in as he’s negotiating deals with other gangsters. The only thing that slightly bothers me about this setup is having those two monitors at different heights, but overall it’s not a bad setup. I feel like it’s organized really well with some personalities spice it up.
Thank You Helen for entering and number three is Maria from Germany, with our very first quad display setup of the episode so she’s using the Asus PG 2 7 8 Q, as the main gaming monitor, supplemented by 223 insurers from Philips and a 21 inch from bank. You up top as an overhead. She says she uses a setup mainly for gaming, with the occasional studying for her university holy hell. That is a hell of a set up for just gaming and school work for peripheral she’s walking. He Razer BlackWidow chroma key board and the razer naga mouse with a firefly mousepad, and a for audio she’s got the eraser Krakens resting on top of a BM 800 microphone, which is hooked up to the side of the desk. Kayo management is definitely not the highlight of this setup. While I do appreciate the effort of using velcro, straps and cable boxes to wide the power strips the rest of the cables seem to have been neglected. And finally, the PC part of the setup has a 4770k with 32 gigs of ram and ugt x, 1080 founders Edition, ok, so here’s the issue I have with this set.
Overall, it’s lacking synergy and I can’t help but feel like it’s coming across as a makeshift setup. In other words, it looks like Maria used what gear she had to put together a setup real quickly. It’S not a bad thing now, obviously, not everyone can go out and buy brand new gear for their setup. I’M just here to offer you my two cents for whatever it’s worth now.
This was my setup. I would have used a different desk altogether because I feel like that. Backhand corner desk doesn’t really add any utility for this type of setup, especially if you still end up putting the PC on the floor and you didn’t even take advantage of the cable net. There are far better and the cheaper alternatives that will not only improve the aesthetics of your setup but will also provide a lot of utility.
For example, here’s a quick, simple desk layout that took me five minutes to put together a 60-inch lindeman Alex combo. So you can Center your quad displays and a smaller 47 inch linman table in the corner for your PC and microphone. This entire setup costs only 156 bucks compared to your 279 single backhand desk or, alternatively, you can pick up a nice 96 inch countertop with a couple of legs and an Alex or for a total of 280 dollars, which is the same price of the back end. But you not only get much larger surface to keep all your gear on, but you also get extra storage.
The desk is going to be large enough to even fit your second PC that you have on the other side. I don’t know why, but I’m itching really badly to come over and give you set up a makeover if you already have the gear you’re just missing the execution, it’s a good setup with room for improvement. Thank You, Maria for entering speaking of execution coming in at number. Four is a beautiful white themed, minimalistic setup, I’m Michael she’s, a high school student who likes to do photography and graphic design.
So she built this setup around that it’s a Productivity setup, that’s being powered by 2017 13-inch MacBook, Pro that’s being beautifully displayed on. I stand with some D brand skins. She went with a wireless keyboard and mouse to keep being super clean and minimalistic, and I just love how neat and tidy everything is. I got ta give her points on staying consistent to the color scheme from the phone stand to the speaker’s. Even the monitor blends. In with the setups team, she also has a Samsung TV mounted on the side for console gaming and watching Netflix. I like that.
I’M able to tell a lot about the person just by looking at they’re set up, and this one is a perfect example of that. It’S always a little things like the camera, underneath the monitor and the pencil holder. That’S shaped like a lens all that contributes to her personality and passion.
I especially love the world map that she has on the wall, indicating all the places that she has been a super simple and clean minimalistic setup that just works. Thank you, Michael for entering and good luck. What everything I hope you follow your passion and make all your dreams a reality. Wrapping up the episode we have Nicole and her pink razor gaming set up so she’s a part-time, bartender and student.
So when she’s not hustling, she’s, relaxing and spending time gaming and streaming on Twitch she’s rocking to Alienware 240 Hertz monitors that are hooked up on the desk, surrounded by a sea of razor gear. Obviously the theme is black and pink so she’s stuck with the courts series from razor to stay consistent throughout. We got the Huntsman keyboard, basilisk mouse and an extended chroma mousepad horse edition, which I didn’t even know existed up until now. In fact, the only thing that’s not Razer is the sound bar. She opted for the Sound Blaster ex katana instead of the Razer Leviathan. She does, however, use headphones.
The Krakens course edition resting on the razor bass station. She does have a set of metal leaf panels. Above the setup – and you can kind of see the cable coming down the wall, the rest of the cables are managed decently, thanks to the mall desk, having a built-in rack and the entire setup is being powered by beast custom PC inside the O, 11 dynamic case From Lee and Lee it’s packing the 9900 K and MSI r-tx 2080 gaming extra graphics card with custom, backplate and sag bracket from v1 tech. I can recognize that from anywhere as awesome as the setup is I’m a little concerned with that monitor layout, since the right one is the main display, the left, one kind of needs to be on an angle.
So it’s closer to your eyes without having you lean in with this layout, I’m sure you’re having a little difficulty looking at the edge of the left monitor since it’s so far out. Also, I feel, like the headset kind of seems, cramped between the monitor and the PC. I get that you want to showcase it on your desk because it matches the rest of your gear, but you can easily make room for it if you scoot your monitors to the left a bit and angle.
The second monitor, so it’s kind of hovering over the desk. This will not only give your headset extra space, but it will be a lot more comfortable gaming and screaming. You know I haven’t seen a fully decked out razor setup in a while. So thank you, Nicole. For entering and good luck with school, if you guys want to check her out on Twitch I’ll drop, a link to her channel down below, and that is it for this episode, I’ve set up Ward’s.
