    Color plays a huge role in making your desk look neat as well. If your cable box was white and you used white cable covers to run the wires to the box, it will look much neater because your wall is white. Great video otherwise; and I learned quite a few things from it too.

    I am using a temporary desk right now when I save money for a new setup so I used the let it hang method. I just used 6 zip ties and it worked really well. I have notches on the wall the conveniently allow the wires to go through and down to meet each other with the table still flush to the wall.

    Ed I've got a tip: Drill a hole in your desk and mousemat underneath your keyboard and feed the keyboard wire through that hole, under the desk to the PC to get that cable off your desk :D do the same with the mouse if its wired :)

    • @TechSource
      @TechSource  8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    • @Drunken_Hamster
      @Drunken_Hamster 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      What if you want to move your keyboard and mouse WAY out of the way to eat? Or change the setup completely? Or even move the things a little bit to adjust as you game for a hard session?
      I think I'd just live with only two measly wires going forward on the desk. At most, I'd drill a small hole towards the back of the desk or close to the monitor for the wires to go in.
