What does your gaming desk/set-up consist of?
Similar in layout to the last two, but sporting a lighter color scheme that takes up less 'visual space' this L-Shaped Computer Work Station by Techni Mobili has plenty of space, but still leaves your room looking spacious.
The only gripe with this layout is that it looks like you have to have your keyboard in the left segment, which means that dual or triple monitor gamers may have a tough time gaming without getting a kink in their necks.
Available on Amazon.com for around $120.
So far all the desks have been black or metal finish, if you're looking for something a little warmer, this L Shaped Mahogany Desk by Techni Mobili may be up your alley. It comes at a bit higher price (around $200 on Amazon) but it also has a platform to cradle your desktop tower and a built in monitor stand. It looks like a classy escapee from the Starship Enterprise, so that alone might be worth the extra few bucks.
For those with less space or looking to spend less money, this compact computer cart is available for just around $80 (yet again, on Amazon) and comes with a nearly 5 star rating from over 200 reviewers.
A smaller gaming desk to be sure, this one may work in dorms or apartments where more expansive models just won't fit.
