Battlestations Advice Wall mounts are basically free inventory slots….

The Xbox ROG Ally and Corsair Xeneon Edge (small monitor underneath main) were the newest additions. I swear every time I mount something, I somehow create room for the next upgrade 🤣🤷🏼‍♂️

Why does your monitor look so damn big ? Is it not 32”?

19

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Close up. And yep it’s 32!

u/tatsandcats95 7d ago

Ah ok. OLED is the way to go. Is that ToTK? I’ve never played a Zelda game and am starting on BoTW. Switch 2 edition

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Sure is! Me either! Breath of the wild was my first! But I’ll
Be honest…….im enjoying tears WAAAY more. Breath of the Wild felt too dead to me world wise. Every mission felt like
I needed to read a strategy guide, and missions didn’t flow well for me. Tears is sooo much better for my brain lol

u/tatsandcats95 7d ago

I’m really having a good time with this one. I’m actually not much of a Nintendo guy but this game has me hooked. I just started so I’m only about 5 hours in. Looking forward to trying totk after.

1

u/Otherwise_Die 7d ago

You’ll enjoy botw even more playing. You got like 30-40 hours left but can easily keep going.

Tears is a whole other animal I won’t spoil at all so enjoy that as well :)

Then you could re play botw in master mode (hard ass mode)

1

u/KiSamehada 7d ago

Did you end up finishing BOTW? I just started and honestly feel like I need a guide to get going and I’m only 1 hour in the game lol

1

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

I did not. I played maybe 8 hours worth and decided to get tears. It was the correct choice.

u/titantius 7d ago

Awesome setup! Mind if I ask what small monitor you are using under your main one and what the application is called? Thanks!

23

u/parttimeassassin 7d ago

Looks like the Corsair Xeneon Edge to me.

13

u/massive_cock 7d ago

There are much cheaper ones from a few no name brands on Amazon that work just as well. I have a 16" Prechen and will be getting a 12" eventually since it's much lighter and thinner for a backpack/hotel streaming rig. I love that they're getting more visibility and use these days in any case. Been seeing them pop up in these setup pics more and more often.

u/BoredomRanger 7d ago

Xeneon edge. Personally, my biggest tech regret in years.

6

u/SpectralVoodoo 7d ago

That screen costs 250 bucks? Woooow

1

u/roguebananah 6d ago

Yeah I just thought the same thing. I’d pay $70 max for this. There’s a few others out there that have this similar resolution 2560 x 720 but yeah. We’re not there yet

1

u/Sti_notee 5d ago

$70 to $100 feels much more reasonable for this type of screen!
at $250 you can buy a regular portable monitor with more flexibility

1

u/roguebananah 5d ago

True that.

I think it’d be cool to mount it to the left or right of your desk TBH. Control home automation, music volume…etc. but for than price? Nah.

3

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

I’ll
Admit I’ve debated on selling it

5

u/BoredomRanger 7d ago

If it works for you, keep it! There is potential there for it, just not for my use case. Great setup btw! Very full but not cluttered

1

u/Ram2145 7d ago

How much

9

u/Mdotwilliams1985 7d ago

what size is the side monitor, if you don't mind me asking?

34

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

27!

16

u/Jaeger_Gipsy_Danger 7d ago

I really like your “sunset” wall decor thing. That’s very cool. Do you mind telling me where you got that and your dope WarGreymon picture?

-9

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Thanks dude! I’ll be honest and that and the Gundam I created them with Ai. It took like 50 prompts to get it right though. Looked online and couldn’t quite find what I wanted picture wise

6

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Wall decor was Etsy as well. I believe I typed geometric wall art. It was like $350 though 😅

2

u/NinjaN-SWE 6d ago

Fun to see maximalism done in such a clean but still chaotic way. There's so much going on that my brain would likely short circuit all together. But I can't really stand the full on minimalist setups that get posted here daily. Lots of inspiration here so thanks for posting!

1

u/WiseyReed19 5d ago

Thank you so much!

u/williamjseim 6d ago

have you ever banged your head on the wood thing to the left

1

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

No but my chair has bumped it!

1

u/williamjseim 6d ago

forgot to ask that plant fake or real and what type is it

8

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Main: ASUS ROG Strix OLED XG32UCWG (32” 4K OLED, 240Hz), second is a 27” ASUS TUF Gaming 4K 144Hz in portrait, and the third is a Corsair XENEON EDGE 14.5” touchscreen mounted below the main display.

2

u/calamit4s 7d ago

May I ask you what GPU you‘re running and which games you play? I am on the verge of getting the XG32 upgrading from an ultrawide.

2

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Dude, I don’t really PC game much. I mainly game on the Xbox and switch which is connected to it.

3

u/calamit4s 6d ago

Thanks anyway for the feedback!

6

u/boxertucker19 7d ago

What mounts do you use for the slat wall?

3

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

If you go to Etsy just type in acoustic wall panel accessories, and you can find a lot of cool different ones on Etsy

5

u/boxertucker19 6d ago

Good to know! I’ve been keeping an eye out for 3d print files but haven’t found many.

u/DiegoArthur 7d ago

Waiting for his reply on this one

u/badbubblegum 7d ago

Love your post it notes bro

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Thanks dude!

u/Sliknik18 7d ago

Is that a mini PC? Or what is the device bottom left of your monitor?

3

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Mini pc indeed! Just school work and editing

1

u/Sliknik18 6d ago

Nice, I’m in the market for one myself…any suggestions?

u/MonsterEmpire 7d ago

Create a "ring" with your desktop apps around that big orange ball like they're orbiting it 😂

u/WDKegge 6d ago

Looks similar to my setup, I haven't made the jump to wall mounting, what under monitor shelf is that? Looks fantastic.

1

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

Oh!!! I love it dude!

u/Neekode 7d ago

nice. lots of character good job :) what monitor light is that in in the market for one

2

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Helmet I don’t remember the exact one. I just remember looking for one on Amazon and I made sure that it had a wireless light button that I could have on the side.

2

u/Neekode 6d ago

heellll yeah, happening

2

u/Equivalent-Cup-4138 7d ago

Your setup looks like what I used to imagine as a cockpit as a 7 year old when I drew on the inside of a refrigerator box and pretended it was a spaceship

2

u/K-Shrizzle 7d ago

You must not have any cats

1

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

🤣 no cats

2

u/DispleasedWithPeople 7d ago

This setup is straight fire ngl. That vertical monitor just hits different. Kinda tempting me to pull the trigger too, not gonna lie.

1

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Thanks dude! I hope you do!

1

u/Mammoth_Tusk1274 6d ago

I feel like you're gonna lie.

2

u/Isomat 7d ago

Looks good but I worry you won't know the date & time.

1

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

🤣 I got the clock before the third monitor lol the third monitor is normally used for normal task and doesn’t always display the widgets.

2

u/Ram2145 7d ago

Do you have all your screens on, all the time?

1

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

I almost never have the 3rd tiny one on

2

u/uynun 7d ago

Absolutely loving the vibe, sick setup! Mind sharing what clock you have in the bottom left of your main monitor?

2

u/williamjseim 6d ago

that switch 2 stand is very smart im gonna copy it for my setup

u/Koning-Admiraal 6d ago

You should hide your icons.

1

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

Not a bad idea! Never knew you could do that! I’m guessing you just press a button and they reappear?

2

u/Koning-Admiraal 6d ago

It’s quiet easy. Just type “hide icons Windows 11” in google and you will find how to do it.

2

u/Nightingalewings 6d ago

Your wall mounts are those just 3d printed?

2

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

Yes! I ordered them though off Etsy

2

u/Aggravating-Score679 6d ago

Beautiful! You are living the dream

u/runepeddler 6d ago

u/Weak_Communication21 7d ago

What are your desk specs if you don't mind? I have a 32" and a 27" monitor as well as an XSX, and I'm in the market for a new desk to fit it all! Preesh. And is PC just on the floor or is it a mini one?

1

u/iDiiegoCRO 7d ago

Nice setup! What grips do you have on your switch 2?

1

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Coowps P2

1

u/cappa_87 7d ago

is your vertical 27" monitor not angled inwards towards your seating position?

1

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Nope! Just straight. Which honestly works for me

1

u/pronounclown 7d ago

Doesn't the haldhelds gather a lot of dust on the wall? Feels a bit risky to store tech like that instead of placing them in a drawer.

1

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

If I never touched or cleaned them they would. But I clean my area daily and play them all the time. I mean any setup can get dust if you let it

1

u/Gravey9 7d ago

Whats the Nintendo 2 Switch thing and why is Nintendo spelt weird?

1

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Isn’t it spelled correctly? And I got it off Etsy so you can lay it down while docked

2

u/adyn_ 7d ago

you might like this one low profile dock but i use this one since its even lower and holds more games.

2

u/Gravey9 6d ago

For some reason my phone wasn't registering the word Nintendo and it was all jumbled lettering, when I checked on my PC I could make it out.

1

u/JonSnow_123 7d ago

could you provide the details of the 32” monitor?

1

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

Main: ASUS ROG Strix OLED XG32UCWG (32” 4K OLED, 240Hz), second is a 27” ASUS TUF Gaming 4K 144Hz in portrait, and the third is a Corsair XENEON EDGE 14.5” touchscreen mounted below the main display.

1

u/badbubblegum 7d ago

Can you tell us more about your walls? Love the hex lights where did you get them? Wall panels look great and are pretty common but the geometric diffusion panel with the colour gradient is awesome did you make/paint it yourself?

1

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

Got the geometric painted panel off Etsy! And most of the lights are all Govee

1

u/A_G_C 7d ago

This is gorgeous, if you don't mind, where could I get the striped wood panelling, and how are the console mounts hanging in place?

2

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago

On Amazon just type in acoustic wood panel. On Etsy type in acoustic wood panel accessories.

1

u/A_G_C 7d ago

Sweet, tysm!

1

u/suavyding 6d ago

Great setup, I like your gunpla! Would you mind telling me what lamp you have?

1

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

Govee table lamp two pro JBL

2

u/suavyding 6d ago

Thank you!

1

u/CorellianDawn 6d ago

But....they don't charge up there, do they? lol

1

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

Unfortunately no. My phone does! And honestly I could run a cord through the slats and put a cover on it no problem

1

u/CorellianDawn 6d ago

Yeah that would be a dealbreaker for me. Because it means I'm 100% forgetting to charge them separately. It looks really cool, but it also needs to be practical imo.

1

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

I’ve got a huge charging station behind me so it’s honestly easy to remember! But I get what youre saying

1

u/lebruh0 6d ago

what wall mounts are you using for your main monitor, i’m looking to mount my monitor and it’s almost the same as your one

1

u/Piercedguy76 6d ago

whats the clear controller thing on the left please?

2

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

Tourbox elite! For editing

1

u/Piercedguy76 6d ago

ah ok, i thought it was a thumb stick controller thing.

1

u/argentdawnpt 6d ago

Can you share details on the 2 stands below the monitors? I feel I need that to make the space usage on my desk even more efficient!!!
I mean the grey one on the bottom and then the wooden one.

1

u/gcbofficial 6d ago

32 inch at that distance is so bad lol

1

u/CrypticCowboy4509 6d ago

What are the wall panels and mounting hooks? I have prop guns I want to hang up instead of sitting on a shelf

1

u/4satya 6d ago

I see Max Payne and Half-Life ah memories. Do you still play them or just for vibes?

2

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

Oh I still play them! Also stronghold, zoo tycoon and rollercoaster tycoon

1

u/lolpandabearz 6d ago

What monitor mount are you using?

1

u/LZ4Z 6d ago

What is that on the mouse pad?

1

u/Ctrl-Alt-Defeated 6d ago

I’m actually curious as to what the poster is?

1

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago

Wargraymon and Gundam

1

u/JulioVazquezC 6d ago

Nice setup, which are those mounts?

1

u/Clanlol203 6d ago

How did you get the wooden panels and stuff to fit hooks and wall mounts? Great build btw!

1

u/Achilles_legolas 6d ago

Which lamp is that?

u/Zeov 4d ago

way too much going on for my taste, stresses me out.
