🎨 Darko’s Modest and Minimalistic Setup

full power of type AI by clicking my
link down below to activate your free
trial today we're going to start off the
episode with a modest and minimalistic
setup by Darko AKA bony who's a graphic
designer from Serbia it might not look
like much for most people but this is
everything that Darko needs for
Designing editing photos and playing
games look I admire your dedication to
the single monitor but as a designer I
Tru truly do think a second one will
benefit you greatly you don't have to
get a another larger display even
something small like a 15-in portable
monner stacked on top of that one will
improve your workflow you can use the
main display for editing photos while
you have the top display for reference
material multitasking or hell even just
keep Discord open at all times this will
prevent you from constantly Alt tabbing
from your primary display as they say if
it ain't broke don't fix it that's
exactly what Darko has done in the past
15 years with his desk I'm surprised
it's still held up and looks practically
new on the desk we got the Apple maker
V65 paired with an xlite V2 mouse and a
pair of edifier speakers I'm definitely
seeing a lot of warm color tones in the
setup which complement the green plants
nicely to give off an earthy theme as
they call it the PC has also been put
through the test of time with an i5 9600
K and an RTX 5600 XT it might be lacking
in the Aesthetics department but it
doesn't really matter considering the PC
is tucked away in the corner anyways a
very modest setup with a touch of
Personality thank you Darko for starting
off the show up next is Eric who's also
a supporter on the Discord server he's
currently going to school but works at a
pumpkin patch on the side to save some
Mula to fuel his setup project and well
after one year and two months he has
finally finished his dream setup this is
where Eric kicks back to relax gets work
done and games on a spare time the
biggest thing that caught my attention
when he first shared a sneak peek on the
server was the custom frame for the
entire desk I've never seen anyone make
a frame like this before so the entire
frame is made out of steel and it was
welded by his dad it appears that they
attached the tabletop the headboard and
both shelves to the frame before
mounting the whole thing on the wall but
I could be wrong here maybe they just
attached everything temporarily to Mark
and drill the holes because moving that
entire thing into the house and mounting
it on the wall seems like a very
difficult task it does look like the
steel frame was designed to provide
support for both the table and the
headboard with a built-in rack
underneath to help with cable management
I'm not sure who designed this but the
execution is Flawless we got two moners
mounted against the headboard the
primary is a 32in 1440p for gaming while
the secondary 27 in in vertical mode off
to the side is for multitasking and I
would assume Discord using one of the
shelves on both the lack shelves for the
speakers was Big Brain the high the
Symmetry the angle chef's kiss when it's
time to game ER gets locked in with the
high-fi man Sara headphones and the fif
fine microphone for perals we got a
custom M1 keyboard paired with a white
Viper ultimate and to kind of help
conceal the cable from the board Eric
added a wood Riser which also helps keep
his other gear organized and hidden from
view pra the entire setup is a small
form factor PC packing the 13600 K and
an RX 6800 XT you can tell everything
about this setup has been carefully
planned from the color of the wall to
the Gear choices and the personal
touches everywhere there was a good
balance of function and form throughout
a very refreshing setup that made it
extremely easy for me to award the 61st
seal approval congrats Eric hit me up in
this score to claim your plaque and your
free Tech orus mouse pad coming at
number three is I don't know not that I
don't know who it is he literally goes
by the name of I don't know from the
server while his ident is a secret his
setup is now revealed for the whole
world to see we have yet another single
Monitor and I just got to say I respect
anyone who is rocking a single monitor
for whatever reason okay I don't know
how you guys do it but I got to respect
it if you're watching this video on a
single monitor sound off in the comment
section with the hasht single monitor
gang so I know how many of you guys are
out there I don't know the size of the
display but it could very well be a 42in
OLED TV from LG he's got that sitting on
a nice wood Moniz that's keeping his
audio gear organized and hidden from
Plain Sight but that's not the only
audio gear he's got this man is stacked
quite literally with some juicy Hollow
audio Dak and amps moving back to
peripherals we got a Razer Viper mini
signature edition paired with a blacked
out custom Kepler fc65 build that is one
mean looking keyboard those Metal Key
caps must feel very nice to type on the
primary source of the audio are from
those massive floor speakers that are
sandwiching the setup but for some
privacy and gaming he does put on the
high-fi man sus varas it's pretty
evident he doesn't settle when it comes
to audio he's even sound treated the
entire room with wood panels that he
picked up from gik Acoustics which is
pretty much the only place I shop for
acoustic panels because they don't only
help with sound treating but they also
make goodlook panels so you can decorate
your space at the same time and well
decorating is what he did very well the
panels complement the vibe of the room
so well well I don't have any complaints
with the cable management I do wonder
why you didn't put the PC on the right
side considering it has a clear side
panel on the left side I'm well aware
there is a shelf in the middle but
couldn't that have just been removed or
modded somehow regardless this is one
hell of a beast packing the ryzen 9 7950
X and the orz RTX 4090 damn you also
have a very interesting fan
configuration your airf flow is pretty
much reversed with intake on the top and
exhaust on the bottom normally I would
advise against this but seeing as your
PC is sitting pretty close underneath
the desk this might be the only way to
get better thermals another fantastic
single monitor setup thank you I don't
know for sharing this with us while on
the topic of soundt treating take a look
at Joe setup that will absolutely knock
the acoustic panels off your socks I'm
starting to see a trend here with
Discord users and really good audio gear
Joe setup is no exception he's a motion
designer from Cali who spent the past 2
years building the setup for the purpose
of motion design music production and
gaming so we got a single Ultra ride
mounted to a saljon countertop and that
is sandwiched by two big boy Aon 25
speakers I'm sorry what speakers aren't
these like a couple
Grand nope I was off these are $4,000
speakers 2,200 a piece to be exact man's
just casually flexed on all of us with
speakers that cost more than most of our
setups but he's using an Alienware Ultra
wide I'm only kidding Alienware is fine
I'm just realizing the speakers aren't
the only expensive items in this setup
in fact he's rocking some pretty
high-end audio equipment like the MZ
headphones and the oran audio interface
that he has tucked underneath the
monitor rizer for perals he's using a
custom tgr Jane keyboard paired with a G
Pro X super light 2 I'm also noticing a
lot of custom keyboard Builds on the
Discord Edition I feel like you can
always tell how successful someone is by
the total cost of their setup right
there's got to be some correlation with
money spent on the setup and how
successful you are let me know if you
guys agree or disagree in the comment
section I feel like this is accurate in
a lot of professions maybe not all the
professions but most of them like DJing
for example right some of the best DJs
out there have state-of-the-art mixing
equipment sound trening um same goes for
streamers these are the hair phones this
my controller this isera okay I take
that back regardless how successful Joe
is the setup is definitely impressive
and I can see the passion for his
occupation reflect into the setup that
he has built the decor is Tastefully
done and blends in with the Ambiance of
the room without being too distracting
he's also not afraid to personalize it
with some of his Hobbies look I'm not
going to tear him in you hole with the
cable management because I know how
difficult it can be to manage wires from
all of that audio equipment but I will
give him credit for using a rack to keep
them off the ground and relatively
hidden from the fr front now the PC
powering it all is a beautiful custom
chrome Hardline build we got the I9
13900 K that's paired with the gigabyte
RTX 490 and
192 gigs of RAM wow a worthy Beast to
power a badass setup thank you Joe for
finally coming on the show ladies and
gents we are ending off the episode with
a bang Zack who's an HVAC Tech from
Arizona has built himself the ultimate
drifting car inspired setup specifically
the Japanese drifting culture is the
main inspiration here you don't often
see rims mounted on the wall but that's
what makes this setup already stand out
from the crowd we got the primary setup
on the left and a dedicated racing Sim
in the corner so the primary setup is
rocking stacked 27in monitors that are
mounted to a corbly countertop and we
got a few Alex units for support
symmetry is definitely one of the things
this setup excels in I mean everything
is perfectly balanced on both sides from
the rims up top to the shelves the
pictures and even the speakers are
perfectly placed with tilted stands I
couldn't be more proud moving on to
perals you got a custom gmk Pro keyboard
paired with a G Pro X Mouse with a clean
straight cable going across the desk and
into the two cable racks he attached
underneath I mean that cable is
straighter than me aside from the
speakers the only audio Source he's got
are the Corsair hs80 headset which he
keeps underneath the desk some people
might not like the plants hanging out
from the rims but like you said in the
notes I feel like it adds a really nice
flow into the rest of your setup and I
couldn't agree more but what I love most
about this setup believe it or not is
actually the light bar mod for the
shelves that's such a clever way of
adding a spotlight to the photos while
also replacing the need for a modern
light bar the PC power in the main setup
is equipped with the ryzen 5 7600 X and
an RX 6750 XT this is also the same PC
that's powering his racing Sim that's
tucked away in the corner Zach not only
did a phenomenal job on sticking to a
racing theme but he did it in a very
tasteful way fantastic setup and thank
you for finally coming on the show my
guy which Discord server had the best
setup let me know in the comment section
down below thank you guys so much for
watching as always and I'll see your
beautiful nose hairs in the next video
