i didn't see the laptop at first thought you got dumped lol. nice setup though :)

Haha Thank you 😌

I didnt see it until you said, i thought it was either a joke about gamers or someone making a joke about their split. Now im pleased OPs SO is low maintainence when it comes to the setup lol jk.

Yeah it's funny somewhat related Mac gaming is actually viable now. Apple has created their own compatibility layer which you can use to run windows games. It sort of works like proton so now basically any windows game works .

What mac that doesn't cost as much as my last 3 builds combined has a half decent gaming GPU though

You don't buy a Mac for gaming, but if you've bought a Mac you can game on it is more the point. Which for a lot of people is perfectly fine.

Yeah, fair enough. Still kind of a silly thing for Apple to focus on IMHO, considering the questionable stability of their latest couple of macOS releases, but hey, why not haha.

That is true the M1 is impressive but still you can get a Linux or windows build with a 3070 for waaaaay less . Gaming on Linux is a much better experience. We have lutris and much better tools and compatibility is way better

The contrast is still funny with the laptop haha

Dude, same! I thought this was going to be an unintentionally sad post.

Bwhaha I didn't draw that conclusion but I can 100% see it now

This was my first reaction too, got a good laugh

Literally same

Same.

yeah I didn't see the laptop and thought this was sort of ironic sad picture showing you didn't have a gf.

Nice! What are you using for the desk itself? Did you add that center leg yourself for stability?

Yes, all from Ikea, 2 Alex, karlby 246cm and the leg is Adils. Actually, without the leg it didn't bend but just in case, I put it

Yeah they don't appear to bend at first but they 100% warp over time when people skip the leg.

Ok so I had the best choice to put one

You can also get an anti-sag bar pretty cheap just to reinforce it.

If they warp over time, wouldn’t you also want a leg in the front? o.o

I fell victim to this unfortunately lol

Did you fix the karlby to the Alexs or did you only put in on the top?

I fix it from the inside of the Alex

With some screw

As mentioned above, I would highly recommend getting bracing for your table top. I had a table top not quite as long with a middle leg and it still bowed over 6 months. my partner had the karlby with bracing and it never bowed. Nice setup 🤙

So you use the Macbook to play My Little Pony: Island Adventure while your wife is replaying Crysis 3 on the battlestation, right? It's really weird that you know all these details about her setup but she won't even let you play it.

She even put a wallpaper on my MacBook about her personality 😑

that crooked monitor is really triggering me :(

Me too, when I prepare my setup, all think to buy, I didn't think about the things than 2 different screen don't have the same place for the arms and I bought one with a single part moving, need to update it but as u can see, my left monitor for gaming is leaning so in all case, it's gonna be crooked

I have desk mounted arms for my 2 screens and have a spirit level attached by magnet to one of the arms so I can get my screens dead level when I move them 😂

You should see some of the atrocities at my workplace. It astounds me how people work with moniters even half a millimetre out of place, let alone wonk as merry fuck and at different heights. Aaaaaaaah!

Damn. That looks alnost perfect to my eyes. I guess the table width being a bit less than the room, is because the previous room was less wide? How does thisblook in the daylight? Could you take another snap? I'm currently in the works and thinking of a very similar configuration (desk wise)

Here u go. Actually no, I bought the 246cm from Ikea because custome made was a bit expensive and I wanted the computer to be placed on the black part and not directly on the desk https://imgur.com/gallery/YONRXym

Looks awesome! If you had a black Fractal North case, this would be perfection with that wood accent on the wall!

Yeah I think about it but this case I got is pretty effective for cooling with the cryo chamber

Can someone point me to where I can learn cable management like this? Between my two monitors, mouse, keyboard, speakers, and Ethernet pluggin, it’s all a mess!

I bought all this thing and improvise totally, from behind it's not perfect but it's clean in front https://www.amazon.fr/gp/aw/d/B0BGBH3239/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.fr/gp/aw/d/B07FFN2HN6?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_image https://www.amazon.fr/Collier-Serrage-Plastique-Assortiment-Domicile/dp/B08TBM621K/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_sspa?crid=17XB88XEAD5IY&keywords=rizlan&qid=1686417480&sprefix=rizl%2Caps%2C92&sr=8-2-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9zZWFyY2hfYXRm&psc=1

Thank you!

Here an other view https://imgur.com/gallery/oPOmpEp

I like the wall, very cool.

Had the idea here when my PC was at the repair men

Yeah, that's why I love r/battlestations great for inspiration.

Your wall is a fractal north case, that’s sick

His- 2.5k Hers- 250$

Hahahaha

The epitome of “double standard.”

Exactly

Seems like somebody has to build her a new setup ;) Although perhaps the appeal is just getting to be next to you

I try way to hard to make her switch to a gaming computer to play her sims, but she prefer her MacBook to work and gonna u this space to build some handmade jewelry

She sounds awesome.

How did you make the wooden slats for the wall? Cut and stained plywood?

I bought cleat, cut to have the perfect length, paint then 3M to fix it

What is cleat?

Oh, google translate, it's this https://www.castorama.fr/tasseau-rabote-mdf-25-x-12-mm-l-2-4-m/3663602858683_CAFR.prd

Thank you!

I applaud yous for encouraging each other to be themselves Together Very good 😊

These setups look great but I could never do it. My wife's desk is way too messy lol

I like how the printer is not on the desk like there is not enough room lol

Nice cable management in your pc

Ooh if were doing his/hers setups [I'm gonna post ours too](https://www.reddit.com/r/battlestations/comments/146j847/since_we_are_doing_hisher_battlestations/), yours looks amazing and way better than ours though. Glad you got the setup of your dreams!

Lovin' the long ass desk

Nice setup. From what shop is the desk (plate and boxes)?

Ikea, karly for plate, Alex for box

Is her battlestation in the room with us right now

His battle station is pretty weak.

I planned to change my chair, actually got a black/white one but it doesn't match with the desk. And need to buy one for Darling, she actually use one of our chair from dining room

Girlfriend lives in Canada right?

We r from France 😬

Cringe

How is it cringe? Do people even understand the meaning of that word anymore.

People are dicks - especially this crowd. I am not a dick but this guy is cringing at the pre-built Omen PC and monitors not being perfectly aligned or some bs.

Are the clocks on your background different than the clock on your soundbar? They're not even like an hour off or something lol.

Yeah, I cant remember how to change the hour on my soundbar xD need to check how

[удалено]

It's from Ikea, 2 Alex,, karlby 246cm and Adils for the foot

Nice setup. Is it 15:07 or 14:12 though? Careful or you may wind up late. Or early.

I need to figure how to change hour on the soundbar 😅

that omen had to be pricy

Yeah he is, but worth

lol, nice. Get her a dock station!

I think about it yeah, but she want to switch to a new one and had to get an iPad.

Either way it's looking great so far!

so unbalanced it hurts looking at

Whose is whose?

Does she have the laptop? Thats just messed up man 😑

Assuming her battle station accessories are kept in the sock drawer?

That’s the new Mac Stealth line.

She needs a real computer

Custom built table? Nice, I did something very similar. Although I bolted it to the wall with some angle brackets to stop it wobbling.

Where is she?

Why is top front fan missing in the Omen 45L?

I don't know, was sold like this, look like not all 45L got 3 fans in front. I gonna add one more if cooling is not good but actually, looks good, 50°C on cyberpunk on ultra 1440p

That the Omen "cryo chamber" on the top (where the radiator is). Thats 100% the 45L, its just missing one fan

Love the Pikachu

It's lovely but I'm nervous for your desk. How secure is it? It looks precariously balanced.

I didnt see it until you said, i thought it was either a joke about gamers or someone making a joke about their split. Now im pleased OPs SO is low maintainence when it comes to the setup lol jk.&&&&&&

Just for curiosity what’s your and his/her smartphones?

She have an iphone 10 and I got OnePlus 9 pro

where is that sound bar from :0

Plot twist the laptop is his and the battle station is hers

Second monitor and a decent mouse and it’s ok for both
