Love the purple and kudos for ADTR!

Hey guys! I was wondering, do any of you have any ideas on how to hide the cables coming out of my rear IO on my PC? The PC has to be placed in a direction where the backside is pointing away from the wall, instead of against it. Currently I have a plant there (not the nicest looking one), but do you have any one solution?
See picture below. (Hopefully, if I can make it work)
(Not sure how to actually make the image appear here, but the link seems to work. Noob at this)
Some sort of cable management might help, I am using this for the cables that come and go to and from my TV:

The way you have it placed makes it kind of difficult to hide the cables completely, but you can always make them look like one instead of many. It's a neat solution that gives you some flexibility, if you want to add more or remove some.
The plant is always a nice touch, I always try to have plants in my settings. Currently in the process of setting up my new place (moved houses a few months ago), will probably post a few pics when I have all the furniture I need and set up everything the way I want.
Also, is this the corner BEKANT desk from IKEA? You're using an arm mount for the monitor, right? Does it hold it nicely? I want to buy a normal BEKANT (not corner) for mounting my two monitors, but I'm not sure whether it will hold them reliably.
Thanks! I might look into that. I think I'm the only actually seeing the cables when the plant is there, but it's still annoying
Yeah, I think it's the bekant corner desk. I use it to mount two screens as well. It can be a bit wobbly, but I think it works well. I use two freedom arm mounts connected to one of their stands.
@Leng Jai: Nice setup as always! Are you doing anything to hide the cables coming out of your computer?
Good to see this thread is getting busy again. Not running any speakers at the moment so it's headphones only unless I want to use the stinky TV speakers. Would love to replace the PS4 Pro with a white one but can't really swing it with the One X coming up in a few months. Apologies for the stinky lighting.
That was one of the first setups I noticed when I joined neogaf last year and I really liked it, congrats on keeping it so clean and fitting so many things in a single room. Magnificent.
Two questions, if I may ask:
What's the PC case you're using?
What's the amp and DAC you use for your headphones? Whilst I prefer speakers than headphones, I'm considering trying out a number of different headphone amps.
I was too embarrassed to share my old setup, but over the summer I had the opportunity to redecorate, having just one bedroom for general gaming and vr proved quite the logistical challenge, but I think it worked out well.

Where can I get the wallpaper from the widescreen?
Here Its from a band "A Day to Remember"
edit: did you want the wide screen verison as well? I just linked the 1080.

Love the setup. What keyboard are you using?
IKBC MF87, it's not wireless though. Only just got it last week.
Dang, I thought it was wireless mechanical keyboard from that pic.

I'd be so afraid that TV would fall on me while I was asleep.

Seems like I've been living under a rock. Since everybody is using vertically placed monitors now on their desks and I had no idea that's a thing. What's the deal with that? Just for better web browsing?
Has anyone bought any TV stands from the company Monarch? Seeing a lot of their stuff on sites like Amazon, Staples, Home Depot and it looks super nice but not many reviews.
EDIT: Nvm I went ahead and bought one, BUT: http://www.ikea.com/ca/en/catalog/products/S79166399/
I'm getting a curtain track system for my basement, but I'm unsure of how you'd go about actually putting curtains up on it? Do you need to buy special curtains? Do all work and just attach to the sliders?

Right here.
I dig the NBA Jame shrine.
What is the big box in the middle at the bottom? PC NBA Jam?
That Jam shrine is all sorts of absurd.
Love it
Updated my office setup with:
When you buy a TV mount and then find out your studs are 24" apart and the mount doesn't span that width. Great.

better late than never I suppose. A couple of upgrades from last year.
My room.
Living room.
Panoramas.
Bonus Lighting:
Eventually I will hang the posters I bought a couple of months ago..
The Amazon Echo system controls all of the lighting/media in all of the rooms (living/bed/kitchen/bathroom).
Despite all the gizmos, my two favorite devices are probably the Steamlink and my waterproof speakers in the shower.
My buddy just put together his shrine to the OG Xbox in his basement:
Planning on getting a few more CRT's set up down there to have a LAN, thus the multiple copies of Halo 2 in his collection.
However, to me, it's still second to his shrine to NBA Jam:
Wall mounted the TV, and got a new stand!
not really a gaming setup per se, but I love this big rustic desk. Can't stand small desks..
EDIT:
added a better picture.
Went to Home Depot to get led strips for my shelves and released I have the wrong extension cables and need to find some new extension cables . Also ended up spending another 30min looking at various wood brainstorming where else I could more shelves in my tiny room to fit more gaming stuff
