The mounting of that cabinet along with the backlighting is slick AF.
That must have been a doppelganger! We built the basement out back in late 2015/early 2016 and the walls have always been that bluish color.
To join in on the NZXT love, here is a bad pic of my new case (h500i):
Re-posting the same images as last year as nothing has really changed. I did get a 3D printer and upgraded my computer to a new case (NZXT h500i) but I don't have good pics of either at the moment.

I definitely am. I'll post later when I have time to take some pictures, but I'm renting a room right now so it's quite modest. I want to get some baskets or boxes to go with my asymmetrical box shelf TV stand situation to de-clutter the games and books I have.
Have a link to a reasonably priced one? I'd love to upgrade to something like that for the Switch/PS4.
I really like the colors here. That shower curtain goes perfectly with the furniture.Our new house/gaming setup. Now that we're settled down it's been nice to fill out the room. There were plants on the bookshelf but they died :(. Back door is gross cause of the dog :)
The way the lighting works with that painting is rad. Also a super nice coffee table, what is it?Here is mine as of now
Living Room:
What coffee table is that? It's awesome. Love the doggo too!You all have some really nice set ups. Mine is always changing, but here are a few pictures I took of my basement. Only thing missing in the shot is my switch. Probably packed away in my work bag.
I like the aesthetic you've gone for here. this is probably my ideal since I have a lot of framed prints. Those boxes are great.Always lurking these threads so I decided to finally contribute. Not the best lighting but it'll do.
Only renting this place so it's pretty simple. The color of the speakers actually matched my old place but not so much now. I want to repaint them some day but that has to wait.
The other side of the room. I keep my physical games and Blu-Rays in the black and white boxes.
I really dig the use of this space. This looks like such a nice calm comfy place to read/play/watch stuff. Well done!HEAD ON VIEW FROM SECTIONAL WHERE I SIT TO GAME:

The only 2 I have framed are some Mark Englert prints. He's one of my fav artists. I had to hold myself back from dropping money on the Aladdin and Lion King ones and now I regret it because I think I would have actually displayed them(and now the aftermarket values are too insane)
The return of my favourite thread!
Things have largely remained the same from last year. I have 55" Sony A1E OLED, with PS4 Pro connected to it. Enjoying a lot of the HDR content. Have Sony HTCT290 sound bar, which is a compromise when you live in a downtown apartment.
That is insane. And my table is similar, so I might eventually try that ... One dayI wish I never looked at this thread.
BRB nuking my home and killing myself.
That said, my PC gaming setup is the exact same this year. So here's that:
Lmao for realThis entire fucking post
Just READ THE OP. For fucks sake take the jealousy out of here. (Edited to be less of an ass)
Nice!!Our new house/gaming setup. Now that we're settled down it's been nice to fill out the room. There were plants on the bookshelf but they died :(. Back door is gross cause of the dog :)
I dig this setup! No idea what you were ashamed of, looks greatWarning:
My camera is super bad.
You've been warned.
Small, yet comfortable and functional. PC, PS3, PS4. I used to have more peripherals, I don't use them anymore. Just DS3, DS4, XB1S controllers. Audio setup is a bit weird, I have to keep switching the 'AUX IN' between PS4 and PS3, with the PS4 getting a 3.5mm pass through from monitor and the PS3 using an adapter from the AV out. Both the PS3 and right monitor are using HDMI to DVI adapters of a kind. I charge controllers from the built in USB hubs on both monitors, connect controllers, KB+M from hub as well. Left monitor has a SD card reader I use to transfer files on my phone. PC isn't shown, as its just a simple matte black mid tower case with a few stickers on it. The same case since 2007!
PC is
AMD athlon X4 860k
GTX 660ti PE (used)
8 GB DDR3 1600
mATX mobo
240gb crucial ssd
1tb spinner
2 tb external
4tb back up
Creative Lab T40 speakers (used, first gen with third party power supply lol)
Dell 2410f (used, brought this year)
Dell 2007fpb (used, brought in oct)
Asus Xonar DG
Almost unused DVD/Bluray Drive (gift from an old, old job)
WIndows 8.1 (testing ubuntu 18.04!!!!)
PS4 1tb Slim
PS3 Super Slim with added 320gb (bought used in 17)
Edit: I know I started the complaining but I think we should all drop it. I thought about it and I have to say, I'm proud of what I've been able to put together, no matter if I still haven't made it in life. One thing I learned in all of my pissy threads (you know the ones), vast majority of people are working to get it done (translation, on a certain level, we're all just winging it) and the people who have the nicest toys may have other things going to hell for them.
Extra edit: The mid 80s radio works and is tuned to sports radio for sportsball games!!
How do you like the Sonos Beam? Thinking of grabbing one next monthSome amazing set ups here! I have followed this thread for a handful of years, and I love the clean look with a minimalistic approach! Anyway, figured I would add my contribution to this thread! I live in a two story home built in January of 2018, and until I have adequate funds to finish the basement and build a man cave I am using our loft in the upstairs for my "man loft"! (Wife has given me creative freedom lol!) Little bit about the below images. I have a 65" LG B7 OLED, XBOX ONE X, PS4 PRO. Also not pictured is gaming pc that I can hook up to the tv but I have not used it in a while, so it is stored away in our spare room closet. I have my 2018 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar where I use daily, along with my iPad for light mobile stuff and some light gaming. Also not pictured is a handheld GBA with raspberry PI that I do all my retro gamin on which can connect via HDMI to my tv. I also have a Sonos set up, 2 Sono's Ones with Alexa support as well as a Sono's beam sound bar. The one Sono's One in picture will be wall mounted eventually to match the other which is wall mounted. Everything in my house (for the most part) is controllable with voice commands of apps on my phone. All lights in the loft are Philips hue including the two lamps. I included one picture with random colors for ambiance purposes. My sectional also pulls out to a bed which is awesome for relaxing and watching movies or gaming. I still need to add a few more minor touches to spice this area up as well as paint (thinking a light gray for walls). Even tho the house is new I hate the carpet and after its worn it will also be replaced with a gray instead of cream. For now I did not take pictures, but I also have a second iPad I installed in the wall in my kitchen that acts a a controller for everything in my house, exterior cameras, lights, music, all smart home apps etc. I also have a 65" KS8000 in the living room with a 5.1 Sonos set up (Another Sonos beam sound bar, 2 Sono's One speakers, and a Sonos sub... let me tell you that thing BUMPS). I love Sonos because I have full home audio for tv or music, that can be split into different rooms at different volumes etc.
I will have to update this post or make another post at night time showing off the loft with full Philips hue color's (The blue/green picture looks better in person... I have an iPhone XS Max but for some reason the camera always makes the hue colors look funky in pictures.) One other random note, my end table drives my OCD nuts with how the decor is and how it looks, I may change it (Even tho I love the gold rhino and the mini plant. The little heart will always stay, its for my dog that passed last March and her paw is imprinted on it).

That's one of the 2 prints I have framed XD. I love it cause it just looks like some random pic of a mall at a general glance. Not everyone knows what it is when they come over. I do love the reaction when people are over and they have that eureka moment of what the picture is.
Re-posting the same images as last year as nothing has really changed. I did get a 3D printer and upgraded my computer to a new case (NZXT h500i) but I don't have good pics of either at the moment.

Glad to hear it! I've been going back and forth on it since December but all the reviews are so good and your first hand experience just pushed me over the edge lol. Being able to add to the Sonos system later is what really got me interested in the first place.
That's great, you still have the neat and clean look, but you dressed it up nicely with some figures and posters. That makes it much more inviting imo, the floor also really helps.Re-posting the same images as last year as nothing has really changed.

I'll switch up the color scheme when I move into a new place, but for now I'm in too deep with the B&W.
Here is my kitchen:
For its price, it's a great sounding mic. Clear as crystal with voice recordings and Discord chats.
Really big inspo for whenever I move out, nice place!I'm just trying to give an old Brooklyn apartment a little color. A decidedly normal 43" 4K TV from Samsung, a PS4 Pro, and my gaming PC is sitting on the floor which I keep clean, thankyouverymuch! Consumer electronics from Best Buy, PC from Micro Center and newegg, lewks unabashedly from IKEA.
May kitty cat bless this house!

Perfect, I'll check 'em out. I did realize that it isn't the most necessary thing right now since I use the Switch in handheld 99% of the time.
Alright here's my humble set up, excuse the clutter. I mentioned I want to get either a couple boxes or a basket for the games/books/cds/etc. in the bottom shelves. Any suggestions would be great! The cables are definitely a mess.
The TV is just a cheap 40'' 1080p I got for $200 about 8-9 years ago.
Getting over a cold as well, more clutter. The speaker sub is under the desk, though these swan m10s are getting long in the tooth, they're around 11 years old now.
My biggest issue is I have such a small amount of space I try to consolidate as much as possible. Definitely inspired to one day have better lighting, let alone my own space so I can have a dedicated living room console set up. Not sure when that'll happen since I live in the Bay Area, but it's good to have goals.
Perfect, I'll check 'em out. I did realize that it isn't the most necessary thing right now since I use the Switch in handheld 99% of the time.
I would suggest putting a back panel on the TV shelf. Keeps it sturdy for longer and will help immensly with hiding cables. You can just get something cheap and thin and it's easy to hammer in with some little nails here and there. Then it's easy to make some holes to bring the cables through at shelf level.
I think these two things are feasible. I have a back panel I just didn't end up nailing it in as it doesn't have premade holes for cords and I don't have a power drill. Definitely can look to organize the cables just so it's cleaner and get a couple small baskets or boxes in the meantime.
Word, and your post was part of what made me post mine. I will say, I used to live in rooms without ceiling lights for years and years. I actually grew to really dislike low light for computer use, but I know I could have something nicer in that regard.
Oh yeah, definitely. I've got a handful of framed prints I can put up, but since I moved in here always thinking it's temporary, they just haven't. My room would look so much better without the bare white, but I think of it as motivation to find what I want. That's why I keep the natural light that comes in as much as possible haha.
