How do you make it so the counter top doesn’t move at all on the drawers
I use the exact one
@@_.Rager._it’s so heavy it doesn’t move
❤❤
How do people not know what your desk is. It’s literally in every gaming setup
Some country in this world don't have Ikea same as my country
Bruh the largest IKEA recently is in Philippines, bruh I trapped in there once I see employees no faces and running after me
@@ikram2512 then you can't build this anyways.
@@Stackali u can if this company exist in my country
@@ikram2512 🤨
The desk everyone on the Internet and there mom uses💀
400 dollars is literally a GPU
I'll juste take 100 and pay my dad to build one💀
My mom desk prob lolll
I want one so bad
@@NP_Com yeah u can get a rx6600 xt with that money, or even a 6700xt
@@NP_Com for a desk 400 actually isn’t the worst
OMG this is like EVERY. SINGLE. DESK. On UA-cam. What about grovemade accessories 😂
Don’t forget the Ben Q light bar
@@joelman1989 I actually have the BenQ Halo lol, and it's great! Point taken about all the YT vids though.
@@JP-jn2yx don’t get me wrong I definitely want that light bar! The halo looks awesome. Hopefully will join you as an owner of one this year.
@@joelman1989 It's so much more expensive than all the others on Amazon, no? Could probably just get one of the cheaper Amazon ones with a lot of reviews.
Everyone is using this! 😂 I’ll make my own with better materials.
The desk is bending
It’s too long to not have any support in the middle
The best desk that money can buy is made of spit and sawdust
Let me guess:
Some ikea desk with 2 Alex drawers.
Edit: ok it’s not a desk, it’s a countertop.
😂😂😂 I mean, can you even call yourself a UA-camr without this desk?
Literally my desk but with some legs in the middle
@@germanfisch do u need legs and where to buy legs for the counter top want to buy the karlby and 2 alex drawers do u think i need legs?
@@frosty2621 if its longer than 120cm then yeah you need legs. You can buy legs separately in ikea
I like how everybody is like, “400! That’s insane!”, when you could also just get a cheaper particle wood desk that they also sell for way less.
Yes🙂
But the kitchen counter doesn't bent that much
i mean you can do that. but it won't last very long.
Half of the price is actually for drawers
Even the most expensive IKEA countertops have particle board inside. It's just laminated with thick veneer
A countertop is a great idea. Most of the table tops in IKEA are made of MDF which gets scratched all the time and then swells with moisture as if the desk had pimples. A kitchen countertop actually has to be better quality (e.g. plywood) since it's a work surface that can get wet. I got one of those motorized standing desks last year but wanted to replace the table top since day one since it got scratched on day one and many more times afterwards...
Dont get this, get a nice laminated
IKEA countertop is not solid wood and will start to sag. You can buy a butcherblock countertop from lowes for 200 and have them cut it any way you want if you don't want the full size. Then stain it whatever color you want and seal it. It will last forever, is far more durable, and looks way better.
It’s all about the space. Not everyone’s got a dedicated office, just a lil corner in their room :). Wanted a corner liked desk for the longest time and the IKEA Belkan looks decent.
all youtubers have this
Its basic but it works
I don't know any other alternatives
Just bought the desk with the Alex drawers just finished building and wow I’m mind blown of how good this is
BRO YOUR DESK IS BENDING
It's not , it seems like it's from curvature of the camera lens
The fact that this guy desk is literally the same as my desk is just unbelievable
I made mine from wood at bnq and legs from ikea this aint nothing special cost me like 70 quid in total and looks clean af
@@Shaunymac10 true making a wooden desk is just underrated
@@Meshaalh911 bro u dont use the leg in middle of desk? im scare doing this table without leg just broke in middle.. in ikea this complete desk come with ADILS and i dont know if i need this or not beacuse i want use a monitor stand with 2 monitors.
I got an electric glass topped standing desk from costco for $300 I think. Works fantastic 😁
Can you rage???
I totally agree, Ikea has some really great things. The only "problem" I have with the Countertop is the depth of 60cm. I prefer a 80cm depth.
Exactly! Imperial units here, the 6' length is perfect, but I find the 25" depth insufficient. 30" is ideal to not feel like the monitor is right in my face.
I use a door instead. Picked it up for free and it's 210x80cm
Same
I have the same desk as him and this is the first time I watched him😂
Dude! Your ikea desk is BENDING!
They all bend. You want flexibility so that desk wouldn't break easily. They weight a lot.
its not, its just camera xd
@@biznesmen9229its actually bending
The transition from Cricket to a Tech youtber is amazing. Great going A B de Villiers.
A thick wooden desk not made of particle board is also a really good choice
I've got one of those drawers, and a yard length desk held up by 2 legs. Pretty awesome
Your countertop is bending in the middle my man
It's the lens! 😂
It's a happy desk :)
if curious the song in the background is the instrumental version of the song midnight radio by cacti
Thank you i appreciate your help gentlemen 🙂
Classic
E
Well that background music sounds familiar and a bit nostalgic
Corlhorl the pals
@@applefan2215omg yourr right 😭😭😭😭 used to be my fav channel in my childhood. Sad that it fell apart
I never saw your videos and we literally have the same exact desk setup. Same countertop size/color, same drawer color (the only difference is I bought my countertop on Lowes). I got confuse for a second thinking someone made a video on my office 😂
IKEA “desks” are the best! I bought 2 6ft tops, adjustable legs and an Alex Draw and it’s perfect for a dual setup or set up and work bench
Bro got 52k likes on the Reddit desk setup that’s been a thing for 10 years now
It will look cool forever! It’s a timeless desk
I believe it's way older than that, but it was originally a solid door on two file cabinets. My grandfather was doing that 40 years ago.
Before you comment about the desk "bending" in the middle, watch this: ua-cam.com/users/shorts1nGNCsqAHYM
for anyone wondering what it is its called saljan,asnd the drawers are called alex
the desk setup everyone and their moms got lol
Still doin the ikea desk in 24 huh?
I mean if it ain’t broke 🤷♂️
Finally found the video after seeing the other videos talking about the desk
yh there's at least one in every setup wars episode on TechSource channel
Your desk is literally bending
Lol "money well spent", money well spent is geting REAL wood desks
I have the same but i have a metal rod in the middle so it isn’t bending
1. Judging by how the camera seems to warp everything else, that is what it is
Idc if it's a thicker countertop, it aint that even hard to just put support in the middle 😭
These setups always have either a leg in the center or angle irons drilled underneath to support it through the large gap and prevent the bending. Got one myself and have no issues after a year with just 2 angle irons running the length of the gap.
We need to see that cable management! It's so clean.
It's not
Another option is using a solid core door; which means it is not one of those cheap doors that are mostly empty space. The reason to do this is; a solid door will handle more weight; and you can cut it in half lengthwise so it's about as deep as the countertops from AKIEA, and if a standard with door isn't wide enough for each half to be as deep as the countertops; you can get wider doors used so people can get through a doorway in a wheel chair. You also want to make sure the countertop is a solid surface rather than being constructed much like a hallow door; so like a solid door you can mount surge protectors, headphone mounts, keyboard drawers, etc, where ever you want. Don't forget to use a battery backup/Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) for devices that have hard drives but no battery, such as towers, DVR's, Game Systems, etc.Eveeything else can go into surge protectors. Even major appliances should be plugged into surge protectors as; with all the electronics now in appliances, circuit boards can be fridge by a power surge after a surge after a brown out, blackout, etc.
the background music reminds me of my childhood
(context: i used to watch a channel when i was young and one of them used this song as their intro)

I came here for this^
@@caseystone803 STONE!
I have a table from paidi
@@TechAuditTV hey I thought you’d know best, I’m gonna get a gaming pc, would the pc have better performance if I built my own or got a prebuilt? I got 1k to spend on the pc
@@yy3vrah When it comes to prebuilds vs custom builds it's (mostly) less about performance differences and much more about getting more for your dollar. If you buy an NZXT prebuild, for example, vs building that exact same PC part for part, it's going to perform the same, but you'll have spent a bit more on the prebuild for the labor.
I uses the same ikea drawer for my desk but I got them on sale for 40 dollars each and I got a butcher block counter top from lowes for 100 bucks so it don't slag and bend over time
NO WAY! The best PC desk is an industrial table from ULINE! Has thick tops too but you can get them in many different lengths in Maple, steel, or a basic wood AND you can order them with a squared or rounded front edge! And the very sturdy adjustable height steel legs have cutouts to add a double outlet to each side for cheap. They are also 36" deep!!!
Love my desk it has a maple top w/ rounded front and with dual monitor arms I have a ton of room on it even with an XXL mousepad & klipsch speakers.
Did I mention you can order an upper steel shelf to go above it too. How many desks out there offer all that! They are indestructible. IIRC Linus may use the same type of desk in some of his videos.
Mid ass desk for $400 😂😂😂😂😂
How is it mid and 400 is like cheap for a desk
I would probably have Bought legs from ikea as well and put one in the middle to reduce bending in the middle.
True
The ikea countertop is really overrated because of the bending problem, it’s actually not made out of hardwood, it only has a thin layer of “wood”, and because of that bending occurs easily. Get a real butcher block that is solid wood and you’re all good
@@dfuji77 nah mate I have 3m 4cm thick block and I'm still using one in the middle to keep it from bending
Bro spent it all on the countertop
I eventually upgraded to an Uplift desk because the IKEA countertops are too shallow. But it’s a great starter desk.
Countertops are wider than 2 meters but only 63.5 cm instead of 80 cm. Depending on the monitor stand, it can get a bit tight
You should get a post in the middle otherwise the bow will get worse
That's the crazy part, no bowing! They have cheaper countertops that bow much easier under weight and for those you absolutely need an extra leg in the middle.
But any sane human being would get a standing desk because it's adjustable throughout the day
I wouldn't say the best desk money can buy... But a very solid option for a budget
Aaannnd, the 'run' on IKEA countertops, begins!
Bro is running ChromeOS 💀
That's just Windows 11 and its weird ass middle taskbar
@@JoeyColey Are you sure look at the wallpaper
@@LFive5 ChromeOS doesn't have that much text on the left side of the taskbar I'm pretty sure.
thats just windows 11 (i know bc its what i use)
400$ for a desk... Might aswell commit burglary
Broke ass
I use a 6' x 3' activity table. Like one of those big flat top tables you often see in schools.
Absolutely, as a Dj / Producer with IKEA you can customize it in any way and keep adding accessories.
Me using a 40 dollar desk L shape
Where do u get a 40 dollar desk?
@@legocornman2146 Not from Ikea lol
I think mine was 100 from amazon
400$man that's alot of money...
Idk what this guy is on but in Canada it’s 345$ so in us it’s less then 300, just look on website
That's still pretty pricey ngl
@@katsoupe6225 ur poor
@@peach_ow8020 yes 😭
If anyone wants to know the background music, it’s Midnight Radio by Cacti 😃
How do you address the potential sag issue in the long run? Thanks
@onyxbear thickness is subjective
I don't see using this as a problem, looks nice and clean. I just prefer to have something look a bit more modern. Either way it gets the job done and gives you much more space.
Chat that desk is warping brother
if you don't want your desk to bend, Ikea sells these poles that you can put under your desk to keep it flat
I build my desk out of oak and Walnut, very nice.
Bent in the middle, fix a support.
Such a smart move easy to take down to👍🏾
I love your setup ❤❤
Please introduce all of it😊
Please
I can get a gaming desk that moves up and down for like 100-300 bucks😂😂
They have the drawers at Michaels too, I originally bought some from Ikea they work great. Both the ones from Ikea and Michael for the drawers
it's the bending desk again for the third time.
its not bent its just the lens on the camera
For some reason I just feel like it's going to fall. I don't know why, I just FEEL that it's going to fall
Depth is big issue. They are really narrow to fit monitor and keyboard
Thats like THE gaming setup desk i feel like like everybody uses it and i saw it first on tech source i think
I know everyone uses it still looks damn good. When I finish building my pc I hope I can still afford tbis
You better get those support legs installed!
I have one of that but in black its really good
You can find these wooden countertops at hardware stores for much cheaper, maybe not as thick but they're still sturdy and made out of real wood
You should have placed some support middle in the back like steel legs. It's bending.
Hey I doubt your gonna see this but what are you using to hold the countertop? I lost the sticky things they give you with the Alex drawers and I was hoping you are using some third party accessory to hold the countertop in place. Please respond if you can!
Best gaming table in my opinion i have that ikea top aswell
thats what i needdd.
I use a Home Depot solid core door. 8ft is a hell of a desk. Legs from Amazon.
hey man love the setup, but you should get a single desk leg in the middle at the wall, otherwise it might just bend the desk, and you dont want that
Not having a leg in the middle for support makes me feel physically ill
This is awesome 👍
I don’t have 8ft in my room, but this is a great tip
A desk that long without any center support, you can see the bow in the video
POV: you just bought a desk and are doing homework in it for the first time in it and taking a break now and you see this
the countertop that tends to Warp/Sag in the middle...money well spent lol
Yay IKEA is finally useful!
Alright! Lemme just buy a 400 dollar desk to put my 100 dollar pc on!
Put the draws more to the middle to keep it from binding
*Karate Master joins the chat*
Actually I have the same setup but with a second one so it can go over a corner with a adjustable pole in the corner to stabilize it
AFAIK, IKEA tables and desks are made from fiber board, which is a bit weak (notice the bowing in his desk). If you have a saw to cut plywood down to the size of desk you want then 3/4 inch (or 1 inch if you really want sturdy and can find it) plywood would probably span that distance with less bowing. Also, less expensive.
looks eery good
Teasing us with the footage of that water cooled 4090 upgrade.
I have the exact same draws on mine their great but if you want you can instead have one that your pc will fit in with a door on the front of it but it’s better to have it on your desk in my opinion
forget about the desk for a second, damn does that pc look NICE! what case and fans are those?
I can already see it bending in the middle from him mounting it on a drawer lmfaoo
the drawers arent the issue, it would be flexing if he had 4 legs holding it. He just didnt put any support in the middle where most of the weight is like he needed. A single leg in the back would solve the issue
So I think at some point this was a really low cost upgrade but I would say my desk was better value. Flexispot e7 when it's on sale for 300$ then buy a Havea Butcher block countertop from Home Depot for 140$ I know it's a little higher but you get a standing desk for 40 more bucks
