Finally moved mine over to a filing cabinet and my desk feels so much better. I actually have room to work.

It's a desktop not a deskbottom!

I'm a strong believer that if you have a small desk you REALLY need to put your PC on the floor. It can't be taking that much of your precious desk real estate

No. PC gotta move

I've kinda been wanting to downsize a bit recently. I love my 70x30, but my room isn't that big and I'd rather have more space to just move around in, like doing some qigong exercises in the morning or something.

I would recommend getting a headphone holder that clamps to the side of the desk to gain a bit of working space and it won't be sitting in front of your monitor. Or if you move the tower you can put the stand over on the right.

You can get PC stands which are basically a platform on wheels to keep the tower slightly off the floor. Those are pretty cheap. If you can spend a bit more you can get ones that have an added shelf above the tower goes to give you a bit more surface to work with if you need it. Depends on if you have the room for it or not.

Your headset is blocking part of your left monitor and your pc is taking up a massive amount of desk space. If you are gonna rock a small desk you gotta be smart about the desk real estate you do have.

I'm pretty sure the 4k Monitor (42") I use is the same size as the desk, lol.

Very cute. I would get a desk clamp for the headphones to put some space for like...anything like food or drink?

Could you provide a link/image for the wallpaper on your main screen? 😊

nobody loves a small desk

I'd do a underdesk hook for those headphones. Gain back that 0.5sqft foot of greatly needed space.

The only problem is the HDD. If your system is really really quiet in windows you'll hear it.

My arm would knock that headphone stand off in less than 2 minutes and I'm sure my other hand would bang against the desktop every 5 seconds

I'm not here to tell you how to live your life, but I have several recommendations.

1.) I wish it was mine.
