Gaming desks

[caesium2108]

Hey guys! What sort of desks are u guys using for ur pc gaming? I’m not into electronic desk moving up & down. Therefore comparing omnidesk kenshi or the secret lab desk. Any other desks to consider?

 

[transparos]

for me, a normal table is good enough..

while I am not fan of Secretlabs but I think their new gaming table looks and work good.

It does look very very good. But i have decided to be more cost effective. (Actually is poor) just bought the omni desk kenshi for $366 after discount. Size is similar or bigger than secret lab’s desk! 60” non electriconic desk

I love those electric desks that can go up and down but use real wood. Very premium look and price. Too bad, I made mine custom using carpentry. Also cheaper and have a cleaner look since you can make it to anything you want. So mine includes a custom cable management area on my desk where I can hide all my cables including the power plugs.
Typical prices of carpentry is $120 per feet. Sometimes can be cheaper depending on which carpenter you use.

I do have the SecretLab Magnus Desk and it's pretty damn nice. No issues so far. Abit expensive but I think it's worth it given the build quality. But with the price increase now not so sure if it's worth it.

Sitoca is the best. My desk just won't die. Use 20 years liao still so sturdy.

Some more it is good price.

This series, I'm still using. I buy direct from them and free delivery 20 years and 15 years ago.

That’s a heavy pc lol. A lot of liquid in the singularity case. Haha

Yeah haha. Plus I have an extra distribution plate on the front. It is only going to get heavier once I upgrade my from EKWB PE to the XE. Luckily for me though I'm still deadlifting so ok.

Oddly though. I use to own the corsair 900D with dual 480mm rads and all pure copper waterblocks. That was the heaviest and sat on my Ikea Galant table like a champ. Lol

The ikea galant is still the best series i have ever own. Till now i regret buying omnidesk.

Wah the 900D is a behemoth! Dual 480mm is mad. Guess must be the good old days.
I never really considered Omnidesk cause I did not find it that great in terms of design and wire management.
When the Magnus came out, it checked all the boxes of what I needed in a desk. Yes, it is expensive but I personally managed to clean up alot of wire clutter. And due to this, I have also now moved to a wireless keyboard. Next would be mouse but right now there just is'nt anything spectacular in terms of wireless mice.

Gaming desks?

Invest more money in hardware...
I have been using a 4-tiered chrome wire rack for almost 5 years. rated for 100kg per tier, keeps tower off the floor and doubles as foot rest. Middle 2 tiers has laminated plywood...
Downside is depth.. so not ideal for curved monitor setup since your kb/mouse is close to screen.
But hey... Way more storage space.

Next pc desk, I'll probably go ikea table top bolted down to 2 drawers

woah, ur setup called my eye more than the table. so i think afterall the setup matters the most! haha but yeah i can expect the secret lab table to be a top quality one.
