My New Hybrid Mac & PC Dream Desk Setup 2024

With 2024 winding down, I’m excited to share the final updates to my dream desk setup for the year, sponsored by Vernal! In this video, I’ll cover all the new upgrades that have made a difference to my workflow, productivity, and gaming, as well as content creation for the channel. From a versatile standing desk and expanded side units to a range of quality-of-life improvements, this setup is designed for ultimate convenience and efficiency.

This workspace has been fine-tuned for productivity, gaming, and content creation, with every feature aimed at improving my workflow and a hassle-free experience. The new standing desk allows for seamless transitions between sitting and standing, while the updated side units offer plenty of space for my 3D printers and storage for equipment, accessories, and everyday essentials. I’ve also implemented clever peripheral switching, making it easy to navigate between my Mac and PC setups without unplugging anything or even getting up to switch systems. There is a lot more to be shown, so sit back, grab a drink and enjoy this deep dive into my new and improved hybrid Mac and PC desk setup.
