A bit of a small desk at the moment at home since I moved to university in Manchester.



5k iMac, 3.3Ghz i5, 8GB RAM, 2TB HDD with 128GB SSD, going to upgrade the ram in a few weeks though, and hopefully get a bigger desk for the back room.

Few changes to the PC specs as of yesterday but here they are in full:

Corsair 750D

Gigabyte Z170XP-SLI Motherboard
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo CPU Cooler
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB DDR4 Ram
EVGA GeForce GTX 770 Classified ACX 4GB
960GB SSD
120GB SSD
240GB SSD (Currently unplugged)
3x 1TB Hard Drives
1 500GB Hard Drive

Slightly new addition in my room which has been given the name "TheMediaServer" - Basically a mini media setup so I can watch TV shows and films while being the comfort of my own bed.



Apple Mac Mini (2.6GHz Intel i5 with 8GB Ram)
ASUS VN247H 23.6-inch Monitor

The above is running 'Plex Media Server' which will host TV shows and films and then that will also allow my parents to watch the content in the living room via an Apple TV box. The Mac Mini also runs Plex Home Threater which gives me the nice UI and also works with the Apple remote so I can be in bed and choose what I want to watch without having to get the keyboard/mouse.

Oh and it's also connected to my Virgin Media box.

@xxMATTGxx; I like the red/orange lights, what are they?

They have multiple colours, they are the LED light strips from IKEA. I can't remember the exact name but it's IKEA branded

IIRC their LED line is Dioder

Looks like it, thanks

Don't need a TV tuner so it's pointless. The only benefit would be the screen size but then it would look ridiculous in where I would want it.

23" at a distance is nothing though (and presumably it's some distance below your bed).

It's slightly higher than the bed itself. While the screen size could have be bigger, I've watched a number of things on it now and I find it perfect.
