This is my current work-in-progress setup. The photo shows four systems: my main PC, a repurposed older system running Linux, my son’s PC, and my remote work setup. I work in IT from home, so the layout is meant to support both work and personal use in the same space.
Main PC
• 24-core i9
• ASUS ROG Strix motherboard
• 128 GB DDR5 RAM
• RTX 4080 Super
• 15 TB total storage
• Three 32" LG monitors and two 27" ASUS monitors
• Klipsch 2.1 THX-certified speakers (260 W)
Son’s PC
His current system is store-bought. If he finishes this school year and next with strong grades, the plan is for us to build a custom PC together for him as a congratulations and reward for the hard work.
Linux System
• 8-core i7
• 32 GB RAM
• RTX 2060
• 37 TB total storage
(I use a KVM switch to share the left-most monitors between the Linux system and my son’s PC.)
Work-From-Home Setup
This uses two 24" monitors mounted on custom stands so they sit at an angle against the desk. That layout keeps the 55" TV (used for game consoles) unobstructed. I’m also building an electronics workbench next to the TV, which isn’t powered yet.
The WFH monitors connect to a company-provided Dell 16" laptop with an Intel i7 Ultra.
Overall, this is still being adjusted and organized, but it supports IT work, gaming, Linux use, and family projects in one shared setup.
