That small Nvidia box is just so damn cool looking, gotta give it to Nvidia, they do it with style! Kinda taken over from Apple in that department with server racks, with their Ai kit having those fancy gold coloured fronts.
Got a tip for us?

This is my ‘current’ setup, I have changed it a LOT this year, sorted out the cable management, I have 2 laptops, cheekily no Mac Studio.. yet.. I had each on on stands then arms either side and it just felt cramped. So I moved my works laptop under my new riser and got a webcam and AirPods for meetings. So works laptop under the riser and MacBook Pro M3 Max on the side, last thing I got is the iPad magnetic stand, it is VERY solid.
Next year I plan to get a Mac Studio M5, and fingers crossed Apple do release new monitors and I shall be looking to get one with built in speakers. I even have a wooden filter stand from Etsy for the Mac Studio to sit on. I much prefer my desk like this as it isn’t big, I don’t have a lot of space to play with so less is more I think.
Kit List:
Bisley standing motorised desk, cable tidy and cable spine under the desk.
Ugmonk riser, iPhone charger and small metal box on the right where my cables sit with white cable wrap things.
ULX leather desk mat.
M3 Max 14” MacBook Pro (never leaves the desk)
Dyson Lamp
Apple Magic Keyboard and trackpad.
Nuphy Air 75 V3 keyboard
Logitech MX4 mouse
Oakywood cable tidy on top mid the riser, I am yet to use it.
Oakywood drinks mat
Works Dell laptop
Logitech Brio 500 webcam.
11” iPad Pro M4
HumanCentric laptop stand (behind that is my iPad Magic Keyboard in white).
CharGenPro Magflott V2 iPad stand
Huawei MateView 28” monitor
Next year I will get the Mac Studio and fingers crossed 32” Apple monitor. And the uGreen M2 NAS.

Thought I'd revitalize this thread, even though my desk is a disaster at the moment...
• Studio M4 Max 16/40, 64GB RAM, 2TB SSD (and an Apple SuperDrive, which still sees occasional duty)
• two 2022 Apple Studio Display (VESA models) side displays in portrait orientation
• Asus ProArt PA32QCV 32" 6K center display
• BenQ Halo monitor light bar, Logitech Brio 4K webcam
• hidden behind the mess are two Samsung T7 2TB SSDs, a Western Digital 2.5" 5TB HDD, and a CalDigit TS4 dock
• keyboard (today's selection) is a KeyMachine/Keycult 004.EXT. 2048 NO.1/65 (number 13 of 100) with GMK Extended 2048 keycaps (combo of Light and Dark sets) with Gateron Baby Kangaroo switches and TypePlus stabs

The 32 ultra sharp has been a PITA; I can't figure out how to update firmware with their crappy software... and I have to power the monitor off/on almost every time I restart my Mac for it to work.
