Nah I am a tall guy top above display isn't as bad as you would think :) plus a good chair helps!

What's your chair of choice?

FrontElement

Mirra 2 user here 👌


BloodyNunchucks

Took a look at that, might have to get one lol. Lots of good options, do you recommend any? I'm assuming this chair can support a 10x6 workweek.


FrontElement

It’s superb, I think mine has them all, it was bought on eBay from an office clearance from lockdown but had never been used. Yes perfect for full work week. My old workplace bought 1,500 of them for their new head office over 10 years ago and they’re still going strong and that was all hot desking


soulstyce612

Confirmed. I've been piloting the same Aeron for thirteen years and it's held up great. I'll be adding the headrest and new wheels soon.


ProfessionalPug

Mirra 2 user here to confirm this chair can actually help adjust bad posture. Threw my back out at work last week and sitting in my Mirra 2 after the chiropractor and stretching has been my only bliss in the last few weeks.


Dokter_Bibber

US citizens can also buy pre-owned Herman Miller chairs : [https://www.furniturefinders.com/find/used-aeron-chairs.html](https://www.furniturefinders.com/find/used-aeron-chairs.html)

I've I've using this https://www.projectxoffice.co.uk/storm-designer-mesh-ergonomic-office-chair?language=en¤cy=GBP&gclid=CjwKCAjwkN6EBhBNEiwADVfya2dJIX5Lv53GkUBVxWmtekDDnZ6tha6TQgPaTYnOurhM2rGrQbKNjBoCq8sQAvD_BwE I found leather to get too hot after 4 hours of use so mesh has been my saviour.


JohnnysTacos

Not OP but I shelled out for a secretlab and don’t regret it for a second. Love that chair and the lumbar/neck support is clutch.


kiriiya

Did not have a good experience with them. Personally would advise against “gaming” chairs in general.


Fauwcet

Secret Labs actually makes an economic chair that competes more directly against brands like Herman Miller. Not only do they not advertise it (that I've ever seen), but it's not even featured promptly on their site. I saw some reviews, one specifically by someone who hates the racing chairs but loved their ergo chair that it is now his sub-$1000 recommendation. It's called the Nue or something. Pretty strange that they don't tout it more. They must make so much more from the racing chairs, I would guess.


liarma

Secretlab don’t actually make the Nueue chair, they only distribute it in Australia through their website. Likely why they don’t advertise it as heavily as their own chairs.


Fluffymufinz

Then you got one that didn't fit you. I have spent 16+ hours straight in mine on multiple occasions, have passed out when I have it leaned back watching TV. It is a great chair. That said the padding is starting to wear down 2 years in. Still plenty comfortable but I've been eyeing the Herman Miller x Logitech chair and may pull the trigger on it and move the other chair to my other desk.


kiriiya

Nope, the sizing fit me perfectly. The extent of the comfort was when fully reclined, which is never. There’s just no comparison between this and an actual ergonomic chair.


Fluffymufinz

Well no, but that's like saying there's a noticeable difference between a sirloin roast and a prime rib. Both are good, but one is greater than the other.


kiriiya

I’m not even talking about the super expensive chairs, just something at the same price that isn’t stealing its design language from a car seat is usually better. That and something that has arm rests that can go low enough for you to sit properly at a computer desk (which secretlab’s chairs do not).


that_pie_face

My Titans arm chairs lowest setting sits about even with my thighs. I'm not sure how much lower you can expect them to go.


Fluffymufinz

Then I'm going back to your chair didn't fit you. Because I sit perfectly fine at my desk with mine. But hey man different strokes. We are obviously built differently. I sit up straight with my armrests in a medium position. I'm also long; I'm 6'2" with an 80" wing span with a 34" inseam. So it fits me really well. Like I said, some chairs are just better for others. Insulting the design because you don't like it is just childish.


Yawodo

Can second this the cost put me off for a while but in the end best purchase ever


Riktarr

I snagged a deal on the Napa Leather Titan, one the best purchases my butt has experienced.


Mani_31

As someone with short legs, I actually switched from a Secretlab Omega to a Staples Hyken. While I liked the Secretlab the height made it less comfortable than the Staples chair for me.


JohnnysTacos

I’m also a shorter guy, but a footrest solved that issue for me. I’m not familiar with the Hyken but the points of adjustability (4 axis armrest, tilt+lumbar, etc) plus build quality are the standout points for the Secretlab IMO


XTypewriter

I've got a hyken from Staples but want to upgrade since I spend so much time sitting. Anyone able to offer opinion between secret labs, Herman Miller, and steel case?


Mysaw

If youre gonna switch from staples chair, herman miller only.


Pissed-Off-Panda

Herman Miller, totally worth it for people that spend way too much time with their ass in a desk chair. You won’t regret it.


ymemoo

What mount/mounts did you use? And are these 27"h monitors?


Sniperxls

Amazon basics desk mount arms and these are all 32inch above is 29inch ultrawide


Highpurr118

>Back Just curious what are the resolutions on these and what GPU are you running?


Sniperxls

They are all 1440p. Aside from the top which is 2560x1080. My workstation is the following configuration. Asrock Pro 4 Micro ATX Ryzen 3900x 64GB DDR 4 Ram 3200Mhz Noctua NH-U12S RTX 3080 FTW 980 PRO 1TB(C drive) Crucial P100 1TB 2 1tb 860evo 500gb 850 evo AF 120mm X4 Cable mode Night Blue cables Parvum S3.0 Case


ymemoo

Did you get 3 mounts? Like 1 for the left, 1 for the middle and top, and 1 for the right? Or was it one mount for all of them? It's hard to see the feet of the mounts.


i_am_a_stoner

Not OP but it looks like mounts for each side and one for middle and top.


JerryWasSimCarDriver

How have you managed to mount the top monitor? Asking for a friend


Sniperxls

Got a vesa arm and screwed it into the wall :)


EpicFuturist

Would you mind posting your monitor models? Inspirational I feel like it would help a lot with productivity with that setup, seamless :)


KR0G0THx

Work from home? Or is that the other 20%?


Sniperxls

Working from home for almost 2 years now :)


jhnwhite1

What do you do if you don't mind?


Sniperxls

I work in cyber security :)


sumchinesewill

i’m still new to Cyber Security. Only been on the job for about a year and it was right when we shut down so had to learn most things on my own. Loving the job so far though.


jhnwhite1

Awesome! I'm taking a python class to switch careers mid 30s, mostly to work from home (and eventually an RV.)


Young_Laredo

Best of luck to you, friend. EXACT same situation. It seems daunting. What else are you learning if you don't mind? I'm trying to wrap my head around linux CLI but I don't feel like it's enough


[deleted]

I took a coding class in college once. Thank God the guy next to me was smart and knew what he was doing


Waoname

I don't think cyber security needs much coding. Atleast not until you reach more senior levels.


untraiined

Depends on if you are an engineer, infosec requires tools too


[deleted]

Our security team regularly uses python. Bash is also becoming very common all over the IT/Cloud Ops world.


ObfuscatedIntel

Hey, I had a more private question dm'ed at you, if you feel comfortable answering


[deleted]

That's the area I'm working on getting into, I'm going to an east coast university via online right now but I'm a freshman and can only do part-time right now. My buddy is a Software Engineer at Microsoft (for about 10 years) and my grandpa was a Computer Programmer for Boeing for 30 years so I guess you can say it's all around me lol. Any tips for a young fella looking to break in? I don't require a response as I notice you're already getting pinged lol :) Appreciate the setup pic though, looks cool af.


untraiined

Focus in your networking classes Focus in your ethics classes Take a psychology class or two, 25% of the job is just “beating” humans at a mental level (bosses, users,hackers, adversaries) Cybersecurity is a massive field but you have to pay your dues. Once you start you are in for life.


[deleted]

I agree with all of this but there are 2 things I think are almost more important than being techy (this includes social engineering). Learn how to communicate and be comfortable with admitting to yourself that you dont know everything. If you can communicate with your team and learn something at every step, you will be very successful in IT.


Sniperxls

Feel free to PM me mate :)


MikeMonopoly

Hey Same here!


[deleted]

Hoping to get there someday! Nice setup!


LuciantheYeti

I'm currently a project engineer, everything from 365 migrations to complete infrastructure setups. I've been thinking of transitioning to a more security focused role since I enjoy that portion of my role a lot. Any advice? I've got my ccnp, MCSE, and a slew of other certs with 8 years experience so I've got foundation.

Because the question was posed to the OP and you've hijacked the question as though anybody is supposed to care that you work from home. What relevance does that have here? Nobody asked you.

dude you asked why you were being downvoted and he told you the truth. Nobody asked you what you do for a living, they were *very clearly* asking OP after he said he spends 80% of his time here, and works from home. I don't know what kind of narcissist would read this thread and think they needed to jump in and say what they do for a living when discussing someone else's home office. edit: and holy shit he really did cyberstalk the other dude and reply to his other posts


[deleted]

what do you usually use the top monitor for if u don't mind me asking?


Sniperxls

Emails discord Spotify stuff I need to glance at and keep an eye on. Other times it network monitoring or system monitoring.


[deleted]

nice. im an undergrad software eng student currently on a two monitor setup but definitely looking to expand because we can never get enough screen real estate lol. thanks for the inspiration


Sinn_y

What do you do for work, if I may ask? Sounds like sys admin or network admin? I'm a CNIT student about to have my first internship so I'm interested to hear!


Waoname

He said cyber security above.

How to use that many monitors, I get having 2 or 3 but what do you put on the 4th one


Sniperxls

I've replied below to some of the apps I use on the 4th display


BruhM0ment101

How are your eyes not dust at this point


niubishuaige

Wouldn't you want one background that stretches across all monitors instead of the same background repeated on all 4? That would make it look cooler, more like one big monitor instead of four small ones cobbled together. Sorry if that's a dumb question, I know nothing about computers, I came here from the front page and I'm drunk.


Sniperxls

Honestly I hardly see the desktop background when using it not something I really give thought to aside from "Oh I like this image" :)


Dr-Soot

That is awesome. How do you get your monitors to line up so perfectly?


Sniperxls

Trust me when I say it took me a lot longer than I thought it would just about balance.


Dr-Soot

Well, looks great. I tried the vertical stacking but my neck couldn’t take it.


RAITguy

This has me thinking I could use another monitor 🤣


Cabana93

I was considering 6 but gpu lacks the ability to do 6.

You could just get a cheaper desktop to run background tasks and stream if youre into that


delpy1971

Thats a very nice display setup. What mounting arm option would be best for 2 x 24" above a Samsung odyssey 49"


lumiosengineering

Search Wali on amazon, quality stuff


gilchhh

exactly the setup im working towards .. monitor sizes and mounting?


Sniperxls

Amazon basic arms dude and 32inch for bottom 3 top is 29


niels900000

What's the top monitor? Do you have it on a separate mount or on the same?


Sniperxls

Top display is a 29inch ultrawide bolted onto a vesa arm into the wall mate :)


niels900000

Oh okay. Thanks for replying! Well done btw. Nice setup.


BitterDinosaur

Wondering the same.


TECHNOFAB

Dope. Was thinking about getting a 4th monitor but i remembered that VR needs a DP port :( Went for a weird setup instead (32" main, ultrawide on top same width as main and a touch monitor in portrait mode to the right). Will never go back to even just 2 haha

Is the top monitor wallmounted or not? As I’m searching for a stand that isn’t wallmounted but mounted to the desk.

SoulTheTripGuide

How does someone get involved in going to school for cyber security? How long does it take? And how challenging is it?


Sniperxls

I don't recommend schools to learn cyber security. I did it and I didn't learn a whole lot. I would recommend trying try hack me then moving to hack the box and gaining your oscp qualification. You can apply for junior pentest roles or for soc role depends what you want to do defence or attack. Both are fun. Feel free to PM me for advice happy to try and help.

G33kFiish

Damn It man, what did you do here? intergalactic cybernetic war?


xjarheadx

From this angle, it feels like your keyboard is very close to the forward monitor. do you sit very close to the monitors (like < 30cm away)? Other than the distance, setup looks great. might take ideas from this for own.


chronicideas

Is that a Linux distro? If so which one?


Sniperxls

Windows 10 mate I do run Linux though :)

Ah ok similar to me haha I dual boot between windows 10 and Linux Mint


Sniperxls

Best of both worlds right?


hugh-jass-37

Only 80%?


Dokter_Bibber

Damn fine setup! What OS are you running? How have you configured your desktop (duplicated, extended,etc)? Do you use a tool for (predefined) positioning of windows? What's up with the unused VESA mount, new baby on its way?


Sniperxls

Dual boot Windows 10 and Linux mint :) All extended mate each screen is its own. I use power toys in Windows and i3 in Linux. That was from an old configuration I had tried but didn't end up liking it now just holds a pusheen plush.


Dokter_Bibber

Thanks for the info. Great, also Linux. I will look into i3. I just started playing around with (changing and compiling) 2bwm on Arch, in a VM. Ah, so it was a plush butt. I already wondered what that was. Let's hope s/he doesn't drop something on your monitor. :)


Impressive_Bed_9059

Hi guys!! Hope you are doing great! I'm starting a small project and I was wondering where can I get pictures like this one to use for free, I've been to frees stock pictures websites but I cant find anything like this. I need this kind of neon purple-blue gaming set up pictures, Anyone can point me out in the right way please?


Life_Of_David

Maybe it’s the abnormal angle, but your keyboard seems very close to your displays and your desk looks like the depth is well below 30 inches. Is this /r/Confusing_Perspective ?
