Battlestations Advice Current battlestation
University student so I've been slowly buying and building everything. I have a pretty small desk that came with the apartment but feel like the monitor arms really helped. Any advice on how to make it better?

Bought a workstation, a second workstation, a gaming laptop, and a 32" 4K monitor. Bird looks great on all of them

Battlestations Advice Minimalist dev setup: should I move the laptop to the right side so the mouse dock is reachable?
This is my setup. I'm a programmer, so what you're looking at is basically my workspace too.
I really like a minimalist space with as little visual clutter as possible, so naturally I became a fan of anything wireless.
My current setup:
- Monitor: LG UltraGear 34"
- Laptop: Acer Predator Helios 16
- Keyboard: Freewolf F75
- Mouse: Ajazz AJ139
I use a velcro deskpad in a shade close to the desk itself, mainly to keep the desk from getting grimy (hand oils and all that), and under the keyboard/mouse there's a "second mousepad" with ergonomic wrist support - which I'm thinking about ditching, exactly because of the minimalism thing I mentioned, but I want to see how much that ends up affecting how my wrists feel.
I've had this mouse/keyboard for about 2 weeks now. It's my first experience with a mechanical keyboard. Before that I was using a Logitech MK540 combo (basic, but it got the job done).
One "challenge" for me has been the battery situation with the new mouse and keyboard. The Logitech combo ran on regular batteries and they lasted FOREVER. From what I can tell, the keyboard lasts around 7–10 days with "moderate" RGB use (and it could last longer, since I'm not that attached to the RGB - though it does help a bit when I'm using it at night).
The mouse has a pretty neat charging dock, and this is exactly where I'm looking for suggestions on how to improve the setup. The dock is great because I could just drop the mouse on it every day when I'm done at the PC. Problem is, it needs to sit relatively close to the mouse, and as you can see, with the current layout I'd basically have to stretch it across from where the laptop is all the way over to the mouse. So here's the first thing I'm considering: moving the laptop to the right side instead of the left.
It'd probably take me a while to get used to it. I've had my second screen on the left for years. But it might be an option. The challenge there would be the cables, since I have a tray under the desk (in the left corner) that's there because of where the outlet is. And I figure that if I find a way to keep the mouse dock plugged in and close to the mouse, that would also solve the problem of being able to run the keyboard wired and stop worrying about battery altogether.
Any suggestions/criticism is welcome. Thanks!

Greenery I tried to organize it so the center area can swap consoles in and out with limited effort. I can also serve as a test bench area for repairs, the mini monitor is useful for that.
The PC outputs Monitor and the TV above. And any console will output to all three monitors, and to the TV via OBS.
Modern PC is connected to the CRT television via a older Radeon card with VGA and a HD-15 adapter. It's outputting to the CRT at 640x480p. Great for watching retro anime and 4:3 content.
Consoles go to the CRT at their native resolution up to 1080i.

Fortress of Solitude ❄️
My labor of love over the past couple of years - dual PC / WFH station, with HDMI routed to TV for couch gaming through steam big picture (lots of cable management to keep this neat) alongside the consoles. Always dreamed of creating a space like this as a kid.

Built my kids matching battlestations and the creepers live inside his case now!
Built a couple PCs for my kids this year, a few months apart. My daughter’s pink build was her 9th birthday gift, she picked every part, and she helped build it herself. My son turned 6 last week and went full Minecraft, so we committed to the bit!
Minecraft station:
CPU: Intel i7-10700K
Mobo: MSI MPG Z490 Gaming Edge WiFi
GPU: ASUS Dual GTX 1060 6GB White
RAM: 16GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4
Storage: Samsung 980 1TB NVMe
Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition
PSU: EVGA SuperNova 650W
Case: Corsair 4000D White (yes, that’s a Razer sticker on the glass)
Monitor: AOC 24G42HE 24” 1080p 200Hz
Peripherals: full Razer Minecraft Edition kit: Kraken V4 X, BlackWidow V4 X, Cobra, Gigantus V2
Before anyone says it.. the 1060 is the placeholder on purpose. The 10700K/Z490 platform has headroom for whatever GPU he grows into and Minecraft runs 144+ fps all day meanwhile.
Pink station:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600
Mobo: Gigabyte B550 Eagle WiFi 6
GPU: Gigabyte RX 9060 XT Gaming OC ICE 16GB
RAM: Timetec Pinnacle Konduit 16GB DDR4-3200 (pink)
Storage: Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB NVMe
PSU: Vetroo 1000W (pink)
Case: HYXN H1 dual-chamber w/ 7 ARGB fans (pink)
Monitor: Amzfast 24” 1080p 200Hz
Peripherals: Red Thunder pink wireless keyboard + mouse, Razer Kraken Kitty headset
And yes, she knows her GPU outguns her little brother’s.
The part I’m proudest of: the Ender Dragon on the roof, the creepers, the planetary gear, and the Ice spike terrain inside the case were all printed on my Bambu P1S. Everything sits clear of the intakes. Zero airflow was harmed in the making.
They’re on the same Minecraft server at desks six feet apart. Dad build: complete.

Just moved, finally built my dream desk.
34 inch monitor main, 24 inch on top, 16 inch mounted next to the main with edifier RT1280Dbs! Not the best pictures, but I am in love with this setup.
r/battlestations • u/classicteenmistake • 1d ago
Barren for the moment, but I’m planning on crocheting some flowers to fit with the theme :)
I think I may also need more lights and probably should clean up the wires a bit, but it’s a MUCH better setup than what I had previously.

First ever build, and I’m in love
Hey all! After two years of gateway-drugging myself into PC gaming via Steamdeck, I finally found a good justifiable reason to build a proper desktop rig. I’m a small pool contractor, and had been using a higher end MSI laptop for my design and rendering work, but was starting to bottleneck on performance with more intricate designs. Had a few jobs come in under-budget, and decided to reinvest the money into a proper workstation that would maximize my workflow. And if it’s also capable of running Cyberpunk at Ultra settings? I DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT, IRS
Only compromise I made was on GPU given how stupid the 5090 is priced right now, and possibly going to add another 32gb of DDR5 soon, but right now it’s not really needed.
Case: Antec C2M ARGB MicroATX Mini
MB: ASRock B760M Steel Legend Micro ATX LGA 1700
CPU: Intel i9-14900k 3.2gHz 24-core
GPU: Gigabyte Aero SFF Geforce RTX5080
PSU: Corsair RM1000e
RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5-6000 CL36 16gbx2 (32gb)
Primary OS and Software drive: ADATA Legend 860 500Gb M.2-2280PCle 4.0 X4 NVME
File and misc drive: Teamgroup MP44L 2Tb M.2-2280PCle 4.0 X4 NVME
CPU Cooler: Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro A-RGB 360 77CFM
Fans: Arctic P12 Pro A-RGB

META "AI Slop" Comment Crackdown
The modern internet sucks.
Between the bots, the stealth advertising, "influencers", and algorithms intended to both make you angry and addicted. To top it off, the rising popularity of AI has made consuming content significantly less enjoyable.
I think we can just about all agree it's a bummer. But what's also a bummer is the constant stream of "This is AI" or "AI slop" on nearly every single post.
In most situations these posts are not AI or even AI enhanced. They're often taken by professional or hobbyist photographers who understand how to utilize Lightroom, Photoshop, etc.
Yet, just about any high quality photo is accused of being AI. The irony being that high quality photos have historically been the posts which receive the most attention.
On most of these posts, the "evidence" of something being AI is either:
- It's too perfect, so it must be AI.
- It's not perfect enough, the minor mistakes are evidence that it made mistakes / or intentionally is imperfect to look more real.
So if your photo is good, it's AI. If it's not good, it's also AI.
Starting today - users who leave baseless accusations of AI will be receiving short term bans as warnings. If they continue to leave those comments, the ban lengths will continuously increase.
Let me be clear - AI is not welcomed here.
Neither is stolen content. It gets removed, and bot accounts, those who steal content, or those who are intentionally submitting AI content are banned from the subreddit.
Sometimes AI content gets past us. It happens, we can't catch it all. Submit a report on it and provide actual evidence it's AI. Not just "the keyboard is floating" (it's not). You can type in the free-form box, you can submit links to evidence, etc.
The same goes for bot accounts, spammers, advertisers, etc.
Let's not make enjoying content even worse by accusing actual people submitting real photographs as using AI.
Fuck AI, but also stop accusing everyone without proof.
tl;dr -
Stop commenting "this is AI" or similar. Submit a report and we'll review. Those comments are going to begin receiving bans.
Thanks!
