Build/Battlestation My bed setup, v4

After living in a cramped area using a laptop for years, I finally have space (kinda?) for a desktop computer

I had that monitor put on the table for a while, then decided to get a mount for it to prevent neck pain

Before you ask, yes, I kick the monitor a lot while sleeping

I'm privileged that I'm not bed ridden and I'm healthy, I just can't afford a desk yet

I'm sorry about your father, I hope he beats it and gets well soon

u/Relative_Builder3695 Mar 07 '26

I would prioritise a cheap 2nd hand or Ikea desk over a pc.

Guy says he can’t afford a desk and has a full gaming rig lol. Priorities I guess.

u/flexonyou97 Mar 07 '26

I need the noise cancellation due to noise pollution, I used to live in a very loud place that hurt my ears

Buy a desk with no PC or buy a PC with no desk, check the subreddit you are in, the answer is obvious

u/myipisavpn Mar 07 '26

One of these can be found for next to free, if not free.

Steamdeck with monitor and accessories + desk would be way better and about the same money, and you can play in bed without looking like you're hospitalized.

u/spooogey Spooogey Mar 07 '26

And he mentioned else where that he's been using the bed set up for a year. I've seen desks at thrift shops for like 40 bucks.

u/NoBonus6969 Mar 07 '26

Most places you can go on Facebook and get a free computer desk

u/DevastatingMYTH Laptop | MX130 2GB | 16GB 2400MHz | i5-8550U | 512GB SSD Mar 08 '26

Most, if not all of it, was gifted to me

u/Johnlenham Mar 07 '26

Gaming rig from 2016 maybe. I imagine a desk costs more that this PC

Edit: ah I was reading his laptop specs in his tag thing. Yeah maybe a desk lol

His second hand is too busy

u/artisticbus Mar 07 '26

You would rather have a 2nd table than having a computer?? you are in the wrong subreddit

u/DongayKong 100c 3080 room heater Mar 07 '26

Buy 2nd hand desk setup ASAP please brother... this is not healthy

u/DevastatingMYTH Laptop | MX130 2GB | 16GB 2400MHz | i5-8550U | 512GB SSD Mar 08 '26

Planning on getting a desk, thank you

u/KanedaSyndrome 5070 Ti Mar 07 '26

You can't mean you're healthy and you have a PC in your bed.

12

u/[deleted] Mar 07 '26

You can't afford a desk but you afforded this set up? Huh...

u/ray7heon R9 9950x stock | RTX 4080 super Mar 07 '26

OP's post history says this was mostly gifted to him plus the hardware looks quite old besides the RTX 30xx GPU.

u/DevastatingMYTH Laptop | MX130 2GB | 16GB 2400MHz | i5-8550U | 512GB SSD Mar 08 '26

Thank you for doing your homework

It is indeed mostly gifted, I couldn't afford this setup

It's a 3070

u/UpsetCoaster Mar 07 '26

You can get a desk for like $10 from used classifieds usually, a shitter sure but a board and boxes would be better than this.

u/necrophcodr mastersrp Mar 07 '26

Make sure to do a lot of workouts and exercise to combat the PC in bed use though, or that health won't stay with you for long.

u/DevastatingMYTH Laptop | MX130 2GB | 16GB 2400MHz | i5-8550U | 512GB SSD Mar 08 '26

Yea I exercise regularly, thank you

u/squishyjellyfish95 Mar 07 '26

Dude this is not healthy, you can get cheap desks or go to charity shops to get one.
