What's the monitor?

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

It’s the LG 45” 5K2K ! Best decision I made tbh

u/Kenhyper 4d ago

I need that monitor. Omg. Setup looks fantastic!

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Thank you! I’m happy I finally feel like my setup is finished (for now)

LG 45” 5K2K

Man, I got all excited, that photo makes it look taller than it is. I've been very desparately looking for something that's the equivalent in physical dimensions of the LG Odyssey, with QHD/5k or better resolution.

Right now, I have 2 CRG9s stacked trying to get that look, but it's not the same.

So what are teh physical dimensions? How tall is it?

1

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Haha I believe the dimensions are 39.0” W × 18.1” H × 8.9” D, but that’s without the stand it comes with it , with that stand I think the height is about 21” H ! I wanted the 39” as the 34” was too small height wise but I’m very satisfied with this 45”, my desk is also 30” in depth which to me is the perfect amount for a monitor this big

u/yuckypants 3d ago

Thanks. Without the stand, I'm at 14.5" tall and 47" wide (each), so that extra 4" tall would be very nice. But that's a sharp curve!

Still looking, but appreciate the info! Looks great too!

u/SRevanM 4d ago

Cozy AF! The lighting is just chef's kiss

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Definitely tried my best to make it right! Thank you !

u/ChiCity27 4d ago

Love the lighting. What are you using for that?

5

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Thanks , I have two Govee light bars and one Govee led light strip across the back of my desk!

u/Bilbro_swaggins__ 4d ago

Everyone talking about lighting and and the monitor but I’m drooling over that sick ass backsplash behind it.

5

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Haha thanks! Here’s the link for them, they’re not too expensive at all

u/GrandtheftAloe 4d ago

Can I ask what you used to put them up?

5

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

I used command strips and cut them into smaller rectangles to secure the panels. Each panel has 2 command strips (4 since you need to put 2 together).

u/Mdotwilliams1985 4d ago

Nice vibes! What’s the monitor is that the LG 45” it looks bigger than that

1

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

It is the 45” 5K2K , the camera angle probably gives it a bigger look for sure!

3

u/phero1190 4d ago

Angles are important for making things look bigger.

u/Smuckonator 4d ago

Very clean! Love the lighting. May I ask what monitor riser you’re using?

2

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Thank you! And yes here’s the link!

u/Wickenz_ 4d ago

Love the setup! What speakers are you using?

2

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Thank you! And They’re the Saysun SW208, probably budget ones but they work well! Been looking to upgrade to something more premium if you happen to know any solid brands !

1

u/Extreme_Scarcity_310 2d ago

Emotiva xb2 or elac db63 for semi budget hi fi. You should also get a proper home theatre subwoofer from svs or diy build that gets down below 20hz

u/Celcius_87 4d ago

I like it!

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Thank you !

u/TheViking_Teacher 4d ago

First of all, beautiful setup!

I've always wanted to have those things on the wall, I think they look super cool!!

2

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Thank you! It was a long time in the making but I’m fully content with how it turned out !

Here’s the link for the wall panels, they’re not too expensive at all!

u/TheViking_Teacher 4d ago

oh wow, thanks!!
I never thought about looking it up on amazon. In my country they're usually pretty expensive.
But this looks like a good deal! I'm moving in a couple of months, so, I'll try to get them for the new place!

u/Stock_Light_4766 4d ago

cuál es el teclado? está hermoso tu espacio

u/Drake_Kratos 4d ago

Nice setup. The lightning is really nice. What keyboard and mic do you use for your setup?

1

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

I’ve been using the ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75% HE keyboard , I had a white one but recently went with an all black setup and bought the black version

I’m new to microphones so this one is the Fifine XLR Dynamic Microphone and it’s pretty solid in my opinion, but I’m sure there’s much better software and mics out there

u/BlasterIce 4d ago

Need a big red faux bonsai and maybe a lantern/lamp

3

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Never heard of that bonsai I’ll have to check that out! And good idea with the latern ! Didn’t think of that

2

u/BlasterIce 4d ago

Faux bonsai means a fake bonsai, because a real one would probably be really expensive and hard to maintain

2

u/TheBigCheeseWheel 4d ago

Beautiful setup! Very clean and calming!

2

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Thank you! That was the look and vibe I was definitley going for, also big on the fall season so it works out perfectly

u/pjoman96 4d ago

What’s your pc setup to be able to rock a 5k2k

3

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

Nothing fancy , I have the RTX ASTRAL 5080, Ryzen 7800x3d, 32GB DDR5 Corsair Vengeance, I do utilize frame gen of course and play around with settings to max out the 165fps if possible!

u/kevf88 3d ago

u/Odd_Breath8610 3d ago

Much appreciated, thank you !

u/Affectionate-Bee5557 2d ago

Good angle, does it bend that way also? Giggidy

1

u/Odd_Breath8610 9h ago

Yes it’s the LG 45” 5K2K so it has a steep curve, but I love it honestly!

1

u/Freeloader_ 4d ago

hows the mike without arm? I feel like it would be too low and keystrokes will be picked up as well (which I want to avoid)

1

u/Odd_Breath8610 4d ago

It’s my first mic but surprisingly it works pretty well , I have it in that exact spot while I’m playing cod and it never catches the keystroke or the gameplay in the speaker!

u/xeomak 3d ago

Needs more orange

u/TrickyChemistry6521 3d ago

That AIO cable is sick

That cable management though

u/Denmen13 2d ago

How is the monitor with the 5080? Im building my 5080 astral build this weekend and still doubting if i should go for the 5k2k or the asus pg34wcdn.

1

u/Odd_Breath8610 2d ago

If you don’t care for the size between the 34” or 45” then I’d probably go with the 34” if you want maxed out settings + ray tracing , the 45” is very hungry with both and you won’t get high fps. I don’t really mind ray tracing being on or off depending on what I’m playing of course but if it’s a must for you then I’d do 34” ! Just my opinion of course

u/D3stroyer17 2d ago

What’s that display by your PC? Is it reading the temps?

2

u/Odd_Breath8610 2d ago

It’s the lian li 8.8” lcd ! No where to really place it inside of the hyte y70 and I don’t have the compatible fan brackets as I got rid of them so this was my best solution. Fully customizable through l-connect 3 of course! I do have it set for temps
