I wanted to put together a post to show off my desk and the setup I’ve got going on.
PC
I built it myself! Mostly to waste time on and play video games but it comes in handy for some work stuff, particularly troubleshooting Visual Studio which doesn’t work too well with ARM processors.
| CPU | AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D |
| Motherboard | ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Hero |
| Case | Corsair iCUE 4000D RGB Airflow |
| Cooler | Corsair iCUE H100i |
| SSD | 2x Crucial T700 2TB PCIe Gen5 M.2 NVMe |
| RAM | Corsair VENGEANCE RGB Grey 32GB (2x16GB), PC5-48000 (6000MHz) DDR5, CL 30-36-36 |
| GPU | Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4080 Super Windforce 16G |
| PSU | MSI 1300W MEG A1300iP |
| OS | Windows 11 Pro |
Work also provided a 16" M1 Pro MacBook which I use a Caldigit TS4 to connect to the monitor and peripherals. It’s a pretty good setup, I can switch between the two pretty easily and the MacBook is a great machine for development work.

 | Whirly Board - One of those balance boards, it’s comfier to stand on than just the floor and keeps me moving a little |
