Already have a standing desk and just trying to sort out the cable side of things. I work from home full time and game a few nights a week, so the setup is running pretty much all day. Dual monitors, a mini PC, and I'm planning to add a walking pad later on.

The cables underneath are a mess right now. What I want is something where everything feeds cleanly down the frame instead of dangling and swaying every time the desk moves. I like the Magnus Pro routing look but I'd rather not swap out the whole desk just to get that.

Looked at a few of the usual brands from Uplift, Branch, and Desky. Anyone running something similar on their setup?

I picked up the MPG 321URX QD OLED a few weeks ago and the stand takes up half of my fairly deep desk space. I need a monitor arm to free up some room.

I was looking at the Ergotron LX but dang, that thing probably costs the same as my ergonomic chair lol.

Trying to stay around $100 to $150. Just something that doesn't break the bank but also won't drop my paycheck monitor on the desk.

My candidates are the Huanuo, Desky and the North Bayou brands.

Not sure if VIVO is good. I know they make phones but didn't know they make monitor arms too.

I'm starting to have lower back pains and neck pains from WFH. Maybe a standing desk will fix those issues but with so many brands available in the market, I don't know how to pick the right one.

P.S. I already have a decent ergo chair so this would just be the desk upgrade.

I see people mentioning Flexispot and Uplift and I also saw the Desky desks pop up while searching. Anyone tried any of these desks?

I don't want to get one that looks good on the image but want to hear from people who actually own one.

And for those of you who own a standing desk, do you really use it? Like really do sitting and standing?

And if so, how many minutes or hours? I was thinking 30 mins sit and 30 minutes stand but I have a gut feeling people might forget the standing desk is actually a standing desk, especially if you're deep into work.

Anyway, any recommendations appreciated.

So my chair situation is getting bad. The piston is starting to sink and the foam is shot. Time for an upgrade.

I do WFH 10 hour days and game on top of that.

I'm stuck between an ergonomic office chair or a high end gaming chair. I heard gaming chairs are trash but then I see people who've had a Titan since covid with zero issues. So which is it? I’ve also heard there are hybrid gaming/ergonomic chairs? Is this true? Like it’s both an ergonomic chair and a gaming chair at the same time.

I sit weird by the way. Like I'll have one leg tucked under me or I'll be leaning hard to one side. The chair has to handle that without falling apart.

The Herman Miller/Steelcase route looks good but the price is too steep. I've heard you can find them used from resellers for $300 to $500 but I'm nervous buying used without sitting in one first.

Oh also came across the Desky Vanguard Gaming Chair while researching. Anyone tried it? Or maybe Secretlab chairs?

EDIT: I went with the Desky instead. I want one that's brand new. Too afraid to get 2nd hand HM or Steelcase chairs.
