That is a fantastic mouse if it's what I assume it is.

Only gripe is the headset... I always prefer a real mic but for some people it's the only option available without being to cumbersome so I'll let it slide. Good to see the rig up off the floor too.

Thanks brother I really enjoy the Logitech mouse it's comfortable amd perfect for al,out everything. I agree I wish I had a a dedicated mic but I'm slowly buying peripherals that I need and right now the mic on the Astro setup is good enough.

What is that thing to the right if I may ask?

Never heard of the AntLion ModMic? You can convert any pair of headphones into a headset. The only drawback is needing a Y-splitter for the second cable.

No likes given. Where's the RGB RAM, and how dare you use anything but water cooling on the potato?

You sir are correct and my sincerest apologizes. I will water cool the Potato at once! and ensure the purchasing of RGB RAM to enhance the coolness. ( shame on me )

Tower is a Fractal Define XL (Gen 1) that's under the desk on the right side.

Ancient Thinkpad 14" T60 for scale.

Just moved in and finally got the basics setup. There's a lot I want to do with this. The desktop is in need of a major overhaul (curse my teenage self for thinking orange is a "cool" color). It's a little cramped at the moment but I just need to get a bit creative with some custom storage solutions. Monitors are all 34 inches and 3440x1440. All in all, a good start to what I hope will turn into a solid battle station. Also, glorious shag carpet.

What's wrong with orange?

Nothing overall. My teenage self was a bit of a "all of the colors" type while my twenty-two year old self is a bit more mellow now. Plus, I plan on replacing those desks in the future with a wood one and between that and the walls I just don't think a bright orange case fits in so well. That should also tell you how old that poor desktop is though.

A big solid wood desk and a single mount for those monitors would really polish everything off nicely.

I like the wood paneling.

You must be from the 70s.

I just helped a buddy of mine build this beautiful computer 4 month ago, and yesterday we RGB'd it.
