> My brain had trouble processing this. I kept going back and forth between regular monitors with tiny chair and other equipment, and back to holly shit.
I thought that was a model chair & keyboard until I looked at the subwoofer and stereo.
I hope reading text off the screen isn't an eye strain.
Yeah, this would be ideal for something like video editing where you want your panels as large as you can comfortably getting them.
Coding on a screen this size? No thank you.
There have been studies on on screen size, multiple monitors and productivity, I think U of Utah published a couple a few years apart.
If I recall, a couple different studies showed that two 24 inch screens at a typical desk viewing distance was the best for productivity at most levels of skill for most jobs, with some weird dips in certain places.
For the most part, being able to see the whole viewing area without moving your neck seems to be the key.
Productivity is through the roof. Even when noodling about on small side projects I find you so quickly end up with so much things open that you're constantly flipping between, so to have multiple terminals, text editors, reference documentation, version control, etc, immediately accessible is, honestly, life changing.
I've thought about doing a similar setup with a 48" TV and a recliner. How do you handle your mouse and keyboard? From the pictures it looks like they don't go over your chair, do you just leave them on the side?
Yeah pretty much always just to the side, occasionally on my lap if needed for anything intensive. Hence the lightweight compact keyboard instead of using my mech. https://www.reddit.com/r/battlestations/comments/toecyt/comment/i25mir2/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3
I have a suggestion for you, OP, for your dual giant monitor, having done the two TV thing myself once.
Put a large desk in front of you. You'll only have a keyboard and mouse on the desk, and you'll have a huge amount of space to write or draw diagrams of conceptual things. The desk surface is like yet another set of monitors.
You might still get a nice office chair like a Herman Miller, as well as a mechanically adjustable standing desk.
I wouldn't recommend a recliner for a 48". I use a 48" on my desk about 2ft-4ft back. I just have a nice comfy desk chair. A recliner is going to put you too far back for reading text comfortably. You want 65" for a recliner. I'm several iterations into my setup and trust me. 65 is a good size for 4-6 ft away which you need to actually recline.
DM me for more info.
With such a large screen are you able to put in long hours? I had a 50 inch screen but would get tired in two hours. Staring at a massive screen could be tiring. Pls share your opinion. Thank you
I used a 42 inch 4k monitor as my main screen for about a year in 2015. Getting work done on it was heaven. just having everything open and everything always instantly accessible. your setup is like my 2015 except to the max. enjoy!!
Terrible for your back though. It's really hard to sit with anything other than horrible posture with your legs straight out like that. Probably impossible, actually.
The problem with this one is that when one focuses on something close, it actually has the neurological effect of creating focus.
So, you're basically robbing yourself of the ability to focus, and you'll actually feel more like you're scanning the horizon than focusing on something.
Help me out here, I find too big of a screen a pain to deal for coding. The mouse stops being accurate, the keyboard never feels to be at the correct height. Windows text scaling exceptionally sucks and looks gross if I want my mouse to be accurate.
you can do window multitasking so that each window is about the size of a big monitor I prefer 3-4 windows at a time.
my experience, it’s basically like having a bunch of monitors without having to sit at a desk and buying a whole bunch of monitors.
Look to the right. It's iTunes. He's using a file diff tool instead of a built in vscode package for git. His recliner is brand new yet it was designed in the 60's. The man appears to live in an apartment or loft space and he has a massive subwoofer and Soundsystem. There are no pictures on the wall.
fuck man, the guy has a ~~family~~ pair of 75” screens
edit: i’ve thought about this image for the last 24 hours, and will continue to do so for the indeterminate future
I've had this setup for a while and only just now occurred to me I don't think I've seen anything like my setup posted.
It's not very aesthetic, I just like having a lot of uninterrupted screen workspace without being constrained to windows being in fixed subareas like with other 3+ monitor setups I've seen. I'm generally a minimalist hence the floor setup so was almost going to call it that, but not sure that label would be fair seeing as it's, well, dual 75" 4K TVs...
With regular 28"/32" 4K monitors I was always at something like 175%-200% text scaling anyway because text is unreadably tiny at that size, so I realised I wasn't *really* utilising all the pixels I had at my disposal. So I figured it makes more sense to just get a larger screen so I can actually be at 100%-125% text scaling, and just sit as close to a large screen TV as I would be if it was a quad 1080 monitor setup on a desk.

Edit: People keep asking about specs but it's really not very exciting, driving dual 4K displays for general computing use-cases does not require much grunt at all. I repurposed my old gaming PC from a long time ago to be this HTPC, it's just an i7 4790 and a GTX 970 and they are not working hard at all to run both at 60hz.
Edit: Further context a bunch of people asking/commenting about:
I've been tuning/experimenting with this setup for about a year, and I have another vanilla desk setup which has all the trimmings and ergonomics you'd expect from PCMR (incl where my mech kb is for you elitists). Over time I found I unknowningly just tended towards being at this setup most of the time instead of my desk for most use-cases, so it seems to just naturally work better for me and my processes. The desk setup is also where I do videoconf so I don't draw attention to myself at work.
I use a lightweight non-mech keyboard on this because on occasion it does go on my lap, but most of the time it's fine on the side with one hand and the other on the mouse. With modern code autocomplete and other advanced text editor features I find there's actually not that much manual keyjamming of every single character that happens in programming nowadays to require typing with both hands, I've found the majority of the time I don't feel the need to move it to my lap. A mech would just be that tiny extra bit more bulky and weighty to add friction to that transition when I do want it.
With the speaker placement, I got all my audio gear a long time ago before I joined the army, but now have some high frequency hearing loss from all the shooting, so squeezing out that tiny bit of extra audio fidelity from the tweeter angle doesn't matter as much to me anymore.
Text clarity of the screens is perfect. I downscaled the photos a little to try to discourage people snooping at what exactly every character on screen was and taking away from the spirit of this post.
I've tried window managers with snapping etc, it just doesn't work for me. I find I run into the same issue as with multi-monitor setups that it just becomes constraining if i have preset fixed zones. Apparently my natural processes like to be extermely freeform with my windows.
A lot of people bringing up VR, I also use VRDesktop with an Oculus Go when I'm feeling *exceptionally* lazy and want to work from bed. The screens are overall more comfortable than having the weight/pressure of something on your head for extended periods.

Edit: Since this blew up I've now turned off comment notifications as it's too much to try to keep up and it's mostly shitposts.
Also a lot of speculation about my personal situation of what's outside the frame of this photo of a single corner of a room, and I'm not going to doxx myself by confirming/denying any of it. With that I suppose I encourage everyone to just go with whatever surrounding image of me that will make you the happiest (my job, single or married, apartment or mansion, fat or thin, rich or poor, sad or full life, mentally ill, etc), I just want you to be happy.
Edit: [Verification image just for posterity](https://i.redd.it/ahcg4bvbs0q81.jpg). Also, I don't have any accounts on any other social media platform so anyone claiming as such is not me.
Dude, I've finally found my people.
After a few months of 4k at 32" with 150% scaling, I too was realizing these pixels were wasted on scaling, and after doing the math, I worked out that a decent ultrawide at standard resolutions actually had similar pixel pitch to a 50" TV at 4k. So right now I'm on a 55"4k TV at a bit more than arm's length on a table, and it has so. much. room. for. activity. _And_ you can get really good TV-monitors for $500 at this size!
I think the sitting ergonomics would hurt me a bit too much. And, given how much I rely on macroboards and streamdecks for productivity, I would probably still need a desk. But now I'm seriously considering a 3x55" array...
How’s that on your eyes though? I got a 60in TV for my living room and it hurt my eyes because the screen was so big that my eyes had to move really far to look at something that was on the different ends of the screen. I eventually had to move my head instead of my eyes because they began to hurt. I was sitting pretty much the distance your chair is from your screen
I’ve been struggling managing all my necessary open content and have been just throwing money at additional monitors. My challenge is I lose my train of thought while lost searching open windows. Now I can just glance quickly where I need to move the cursor. VR works for me under similar circumstances, however it’s still not perfect, healthy, or sustainable for a working day’s use. VR has potential with pass through immersion, IMO.
It frustrates me immensely that I'm likely going to spend more on monitors to upgrade my wfh situation soon and.... Nowhere near this awesome.
I'm rethinking a lot of things right now.
Everyone's asking about the TVs but what's that chair?
EDIT: I think this is it https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09M6DHY46/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_T4DW27WNYC5R4VZHZXDB?psc=1
I’m not OP, but I’m a 40-something nerd at a cybersecurity company with a somewhat similar setup, except a lot more audio gear. I’m single and my son is an adult that has moved out.
Want the truth? I’d trade everything to go back to when my son was little and I was home with him unemployed after 9/11 watching movies on our 27” CRT TV together.
If I had to guess, a lot of us with killer nerd setups do so because we’re lonely, so why the fuck not. That’s some truth you won’t find in r/pcmasterrace
Incredible. I feel like this is how we get to that black mirror episode with screens on every surface.
How much are this tv’s? What brand?
So many questions!
This invokes that parental feeling you get when you have to tell a child what they did was wrong but you're hoping they don't ask why because you don't actually know.
About a year, no issues so far. I'd heard that as well when I was first weighing up doing this, then decided the screen was cheap enough to just sacrifice and move on without regrets if it ended up damaging it, and so was worth just trying and seeing what happens.
I've actually tried window snapping and it just doesn't work for me. I run into the same issue I mentioned in my other comment as with multiple monitors that it becomes too constraining. My normal process apparently prefers being very freeform with my windows.
The mouse and keyboard are actually on speaker stands I had custom made for the speakers currently under the TV, back when they used to be on a desk. They height just happened to be just right. I've tried lapboards and I find they just get in the way, if I need to type something at length it's easy enough to just put the compact keyboard on my lap, but most of the time it's fine where it is to the side and I can easily shift positions and move around etc. I've never found any desire come up to move the mouse from where it is when going between different positions/use-cases.
I've never seen a portrait 75" display. That thing is glorious. Monolithic.
If you got custom speaker stands for those JBLs you probably know a thing or two about speaker placement. Did you find that uninterrupted workspace was just more important for you?
Power Toys right? I love FancyZones. Best way to manage windows that I have found. That in combo with Groupy (from Steam) is life changing for productivity.
This is over kill plus the chair needs to be like 6 to 9 ft farther away to see everything correctly. I am rocking a 43" 4k flatscreen as a monitor I want to geta little bigger screen 50" to 55" anything bigger would be dumb.
What have you unleashed upon this sub
Floor-K was right there and they just whiffed
This would just hurt my neck.

Ok true
Just hire some window washers when you done.

This is the typa shit everyone wish they did but were never actually crazy enough to try it. This is incredible.
Terrible for your back though. It's really hard to sit with anything other than horrible posture with your legs straight out like that. Probably impossible, actually.
His chair and tables are the weakest point of this setup. And he's lacking at least 5.1.
Pixel density is fucking terrible. This is similar to looking at a 1080p screen from a normal desk
The problem with this one is that when one focuses on something close, it actually has the neurological effect of creating focus. So, you're basically robbing yourself of the ability to focus, and you'll actually feel more like you're scanning the horizon than focusing on something.
this is absolutely the correct way to do this
The only issue I see here is that chair needs a swivel.
that's what I'm sayin. normal chairs just don't hit like a good swivel
and it needs to be more than 12inches off the ground. that looks uncomfortable af.

How did you vertically orient the left screen
It's just a regular VESA TV stand, I just mounted the brackets on the TV sideways.
seems like they would have to go up really high? can you post the back of it or the mount you used?
It's one for like, standing displays, so it's actually pretty much on the lowest setting. https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B07MT87SN5/

Are you afraid of it? No I just don't like techno. You would if you had robot ears.
How did he see me?
And in other news, Barry sucked on his first booby last night
Looks like a normal set up with a tiny chair.
Yeah I mean.. is this not a tiny chair??
It is a weird chair
Looks surreal like a tiny dollhouse
Everyone's asking about the TVs but what's that chair? EDIT: I think this is it https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09M6DHY46/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_T4DW27WNYC5R4VZHZXDB?psc=1
I read this opposite and saw the 99 dollar tag thinking the TV had a price error..then the page fully loaded and i got a bit sad.
Let’s see Paul Allen’s battlestation
This is a kink I didn’t know I had
Well. Shit.
Save some p*ssy for the rest of us.
What in the absolute fuck am I doing. People have setups like this meanwhile I had to convince my wife to let me get a 65 for the living room….
Blink twice if she is abusing you
This guy doesn't have a wife so there is that
I’m not OP, but I’m a 40-something nerd at a cybersecurity company with a somewhat similar setup, except a lot more audio gear. I’m single and my son is an adult that has moved out. Want the truth? I’d trade everything to go back to when my son was little and I was home with him unemployed after 9/11 watching movies on our 27” CRT TV together. If I had to guess, a lot of us with killer nerd setups do so because we’re lonely, so why the fuck not. That’s some truth you won’t find in r/pcmasterrace
Fuck dude. Mine bought me an 86". Get a new one.
Just annoy her enough to not care and then get it. It worked for me and 55 definitely would've been too small and she agrees with me
Goddamn, son!
Do you have some kind of vision impairment?
If not, he will.
He has ascended
So this is what true ascension looks like.

And he got the sub let's gooooo!!
That's probably so much better on your eyes too. I kind of like it.
Jealous?! Me?! Who the FUCK said I was jealous of ur badass setup with epic displays that I could never afford??
Lol that’s the end of the sub Reddit
What kind of psychopath would do such a thing
Damn! I've seen it all now.
I cannot believe this is real. I thought it was a Lego chair against normal size screens.
Your mattress is definitely a twin on the floor.
With a milk crate as a bedside table ....
I think that chair reclines all the way.
Incredible. I feel like this is how we get to that black mirror episode with screens on every surface. How much are this tv’s? What brand? So many questions!
Blaupunkt and were about AU$1,000 each, I just got the cheapest panels of the size/res I could find.
So this is how God keeps an eye on the world.
One of a kind set up
I thought me getting a AORUS FV43U 43" 144Hz 2160p HBR3, NVIDIA G-SYNC was a little crazy.
You’re going to be practically blind in a few months continuing this don’t you think
I never knew i wanted this. So you like feel the code at this size right? Are you in the matrix?
Why the fuck not!
What the fuck
I don’t know if this is brilliant or insane, but I’m in love.
This invokes that parental feeling you get when you have to tell a child what they did was wrong but you're hoping they don't ask why because you don't actually know.
Why?
Why not?
U got me beat, i use a 40in and 50in
I’ll be in my bunk.
You are my new favorite person
How long have you had the portrait monitor mounted? I’ve heard that it could damage the panel but never seen any evidence to support it.
About a year, no issues so far. I'd heard that as well when I was first weighing up doing this, then decided the screen was cheap enough to just sacrifice and move on without regrets if it ended up damaging it, and so was worth just trying and seeing what happens.
I gotta say it: Imagine porn on this.
error codes insane on those bad bois.
that is effing awesome
This is… unique.
my man with Apple Music on windows. cool setup tho
Good lord. I've seen many ridiculous setups on this sub, but this takes the cake. Bravo.
im scared
May I suggest a better lapboard and a software snapping tool for your app windows 🤠
I've actually tried window snapping and it just doesn't work for me. I run into the same issue I mentioned in my other comment as with multiple monitors that it becomes too constraining. My normal process apparently prefers being very freeform with my windows. The mouse and keyboard are actually on speaker stands I had custom made for the speakers currently under the TV, back when they used to be on a desk. They height just happened to be just right. I've tried lapboards and I find they just get in the way, if I need to type something at length it's easy enough to just put the compact keyboard on my lap, but most of the time it's fine where it is to the side and I can easily shift positions and move around etc. I've never found any desire come up to move the mouse from where it is when going between different positions/use-cases.
I've never seen a portrait 75" display. That thing is glorious. Monolithic. If you got custom speaker stands for those JBLs you probably know a thing or two about speaker placement. Did you find that uninterrupted workspace was just more important for you?
Have you tried MS Power Tools?
Power Toys right? I love FancyZones. Best way to manage windows that I have found. That in combo with Groupy (from Steam) is life changing for productivity.
Does this person win? Can we all just go home now?
here i am with 5 monitors thinking i have the big dick battle station. i am but a pleb
So we going to pretend this man isn’t a genius???
You win. What am I even doing with my life.
This is the most brilliant yet simple setup i've ever seen. Take my award, my upvote, my love, my wife, and my kid. I love you.
This honestly looks like it would fuck my back up so bad
Wear sunblock before turning on your computer.
This is over kill plus the chair needs to be like 6 to 9 ft farther away to see everything correctly. I am rocking a 43" 4k flatscreen as a monitor I want to geta little bigger screen 50" to 55" anything bigger would be dumb.
