Those power cable management boxes ….. you need to be careful as for normal plugs their ok’ish …….. however, do NOT put power adapters inside them as the heat can build up and can cause serious safety issues !!!🔥🔥🔥
@@dogegaming237 If you overload the first one. Most are rated for 2000-3000W, so unless you plug in so many things that it exceeds the rating, there should be close to no danger. I agree that it‘s still best to avoid it in general
@@grobxgrob I have the same set, it doesn’t matter if a there’s extra holes the small space and the plastic touching heats it up regardless. I have my cables inside all neatly zip ties but my adapters have to be outside of it. Still works for neatness tho.
i know it might be boring to some people but i’d really love to see more cable management stuff. not every product hits but when one does i feel like it makes a huge difference!
One desk thing I really love is over the monitor light bars. Helps light up the keyboard and desk in front of a monitor. I find it helpful even during the daytime.
QUICK TIP: If you don't want to spend 30 dollars on a cable box just use a shoe box and cut 2 holes on either side. I use a old vans box and it looks good and I can fit my 6 plug power cable inside for all my wires
My guy I have two rabbits and when I'm playing games I like to let them hang out with me. They always go for the cables, I had to pick them up and put all the cables on top to stop them from biting them. That box is going to be a life saver, thank you
That lint roller advice is golden. I kept my mousepad clean (it still looks like it is new) because of it. I also use an arm sleeve while gaming to prevent body hair/dust from falling on it.
These hacks are only cheap up until somebody prolific like randomfrankp posts a video about them. Then, they're either not cheap anymore or sold out immediately. Being in Canada, most of these were never cheap in the first place due to import fees and shipping. 😅 But most of these ideas are good! I usually take his ideas and find other products to accomplish a similar vision. That said, I like the monitor mounting ideas, but I'm clumsy with a small room and tend to bump into my monitors a lot.
The magnetic mount for the screen is geniuous. I use my old iPhone as a webcam and so far i've been using a janky flexible tripod on top of monitor solution, but having the phone mounted on the side of my monitor would do wonders!
For some reason I have a pronounced aversion against the "on top of your monitor"-storage. All the other items I find pretty decent and helpful, but I could never see myself going for that. I'm really considering something like the air duster, something to help me clean via air pressure. Cable management is always brilliant of course.
I know why we do not like that shelf-storage-on-your-monitor thing, everyone know the space between the wall and your screen is a void you can never reach. And that shelf is going to add stuff in that void easily.
@@v1d300 Perhaps that's it. I also don't particularly like mounting stuff to my monitor and especially not having it in my field of view while doing stuff. And I believe that would always be the case if I mounted it on a monitor which top I could reach at an arms length.
I got cats an I use the small microfiber cloth cleaning duster (mostly sold as card interior cleaner) it has dangling microfiber cloth thingy that just captures all the cat hair easily much cheaper than lint roller I believe.
best audio quality ive ever heard its so clean and nice like im not even joking its crystal clear and amazing thank you so much its clearer than the crystal meth from breaking bad
That new magnetic mount, the new iOS feature that turns the iPhone into a webcam (with the ability to look down and show your keyboard in a second view at the same time)is a major game-changer.
i have been using a lint roller for years served my pads really well it's a must if you play a lot of fps and don't wanna change your pad every six months
So frank, I'm glad you brought up the charger, because I found an amazing usecase for it, and with that, another step towards finally creating the setup I'd love to see on your channel. But here's the thing right? A wireless split ergo board, kept always charged using one of those pads and a qi charging adapter for usb-c.
One thing that is an absolute must for clean cable management is a server rack! or cable run way what ever you want to call it. I just finished my cables today and damn its clean! don't forget a surge protector to connect everything to and have only one visible cable exposed! Even if you don't have a sit-stand desk, it helps to watch videos on those to perfect a regular set up imo.
I don't comment at all but I would like to thank you for the extra quality of life for my wife and I setup, I just cop the last two items in your showcase cause it would really help clean things up.
A really good use for the magnetic monitor mount would be in tandem with that little stat screen you had in a video not too long ago, after I saw that in your video I got one myself and atm I'm using it with the official Nintendo adjustable charging stand which helps hide the cable a little (I can tweet a picture at you as it's pretty damn clean) but I think being able to strap it to the side of your monitor using that monitor mount and say a right angle usb-c plug to help make it look even cleaner is an awesome idea and I'll have to look into it myself
as soon as you pulled the lint roller out i knew immediately! known this trick for about 8 years now and it never disappoints it picks literally everything up
Hey frank, Awesome video I may see if any of these products are available here in the UK. One small note, the link you provided fr the cable managament box is going to a childrens pencil case instead.
Get an air purifier with a charcoal filter! It makes you healthier, reduces dust that gets on your desk and in your pc, less sneezing. So many benefits.
That magnetic phone holder can be used for MacBooks with the iPhone’s continuity camera (will be put with iOS 16 and Mac OS Ventura very soon). That would save you from needing a webcam or camera for streaming. I was just looking for something like this.
I use a Razer Firefly mousepad - the hard side. It wipes clean with a damp cloth. A blower is only good for cleaning things outside, you should use a vacuum inside otherwise you're just blowing the dust and crap all around your room.
Note to others that may not know(no need to comment “I already know this”) if you use air duster or air blower like in video hold your fan blades when blowing them out. If you are blowing the dust off fans and let the fan blades spin they can ark and short your hardware
Thanks for showcasing items that are practical and can be used and bought by EVERYONE!!!! Too many videos on spending THOUSANDS of dollars on desk accessories. The cable management boxes are just what I'm looking for to charge 3 different phones on my desk while hiding the power chords.......
Thank you, this is one of the most useful setup hack videos I've wathced so far. But the wireless charger link doesn't work. What is the name of the product?
Cable management is by far one of the best things you can do for a messy setup. From an aesthetic standpoint.
Every cable from my pc to my desk is in one big zip tie😂I need to do something about it
@@shootamcgaven7452 Holy crap! Lmao
i agree
And from a maintenance standpoint as well.
100%
Those power cable management boxes ….. you need to be careful as for normal plugs their ok’ish …….. however, do NOT put power adapters inside them as the heat can build up and can cause serious safety issues !!!🔥🔥🔥
to add on, never plug a power strip into another power strip. it’s called daisy chaining and causes electrical fires.

What if you drill some ventilation holes in them?
@@grobxgrob you’d still need a fan to blow cool air into the box i think
@@grobxgrob I have the same set, it doesn’t matter if a there’s extra holes the small space and the plastic touching heats it up regardless. I have my cables inside all neatly zip ties but my adapters have to be outside of it. Still works for neatness tho.
5:03 the little attention to details like lining up your wallpaper with the desk pad is why your channel is unmatched
Crazy
What about the date being in March on the phone but posting the video in September?

i didnt even notice that wow

Lint rollers are my jam for the mouse pad, followed by a wet microfiber towel wipe down for that final cleaning touch.
The lint roller is definitely a neat addition. 👍🏽
My guy I have two rabbits and when I'm playing games I like to let them hang out with me. They always go for the cables, I had to pick them up and put all the cables on top to stop them from biting them. That box is going to be a life saver, thank you
This is such a good episode. I want everything except the air duster, but that's just because I already have a similar one! All great picks

I don't like the top of monitor mount, either. If something falls, that's a scratch (or worse) on the LCD screen.
@@iPlayOnSpica Exactly
lol the second i saw the lint roller part i found one as i have 3 EXTREMELY fluffy cats i used it on my pad and it made it look brand new! tysm!
I got cats an I use the small microfiber cloth cleaning duster (mostly sold as card interior cleaner) it has dangling microfiber cloth thingy that just captures all the cat hair easily much cheaper than lint roller I believe.
Can't believe I'm watching this at 4am but gotta do it for Frank ;)
The wallpaper on a phone matching the mousepad is godlike.

That's exactly what I've been thinking about, actually. I just think my table is too thick to make it feasible :(
THATS SO FUCKING SMART I NEED THAT RIGHT NOW
Never heard of those adapters! That’s a cool idea!
@@willyumsstudio Thank you. :) I thought it was a good idea. Split ergo without cables is my minimalist fantasy. Its expensive but so worth it

I also use a lint roller/brush on my chair…helps w the lint (from my blanket lol) and dust

That spin of the Melgeek was perfect!!
Dude, I honestly forgot that you existed. Either way, remember watching you a lot of years ago. Nice to see you again, and crushing it!
I'm digging the invisible wireless charger.
that magnetic monitor mount could be really good with the spotify car thing, ive been looking for a way to mount mine to my monitor
Oh shit good thinking!

random frank p is such a memer bro i love his stuff. also respect for still using the xb 360 w manz
I got the cable management boxes from this vid, sheesh massive improvement right off the bat. Big time W
another tip. When having multi monitor setup. Use black scotch tape on the back to make them all exact same size and block light through little gaps
as soon as you pulled the lint roller out i knew immediately! known this trick for about 8 years now and it never disappoints it picks literally everything up
I loved this! Thanks for the tips, Frank! Getting a lint roller asap
Man, I dig some of these hacks. Thanks
Hey frank, Awesome video I may see if any of these products are available here in the UK. One small note, the link you provided fr the cable managament box is going to a childrens pencil case instead.
You just saved me so much money lol; absolutely genius mate
The cable management box is AMAZING!
What light is that on the magnetic holder?
That lint roller is the bomb!!
I've been needing a cable management box. Thanks!
Wow! This is the first video that shows me everyting i need! Thx for this RFP🎉
This made me realize I need to step up my cable management
Super informative and useful, great video and phenomenal b roll
I’m such a tech nerd for seeing this. You already have the iPhone 14 pro! Lucky!! I won’t be getting one for a while
Get an air purifier with a charcoal filter! It makes you healthier, reduces dust that gets on your desk and in your pc, less sneezing. So many benefits.
ok ur smart for the lint roller idea. Thanks. subbed.
I would have never thought to use a lint roller for my mouse pad. Great idea!
That magnetic phone holder can be used for MacBooks with the iPhone’s continuity camera (will be put with iOS 16 and Mac OS Ventura very soon). That would save you from needing a webcam or camera for streaming.
I was just looking for something like this.
My magnus desk is laughing at your cable management
the cable mangement box has saved me
That monitor shelf would be great for speakers/soundbars
Hey Frank what is the desk you use that has the dark amber look to it that you show the products on? It's really nice.
Keep them coming man :)
I have those shelves, they work great!
My setup has 3 4k monitors with an Xbox one are Xbox ones over or under rated?
To clean my mouse pad with nog sticky things I use a "swiffer" basically one of those polyester static cling dusters they work wonders for mousepads.
Going to order the top shelve and wireless charger Thx Frank
Been using lint roller for a while now. It’s works great.
Thats one big ass lint roller lol!
Used to use lint rollers to clean my pad too but after getting a mini vacuum i just used that instead 👍
The white crumbs are the worst on the weekends this will come in handy
The monitor mount will work great with my spotify car thing! I was looking for something like that
Where did you get that mouse pad? It looks awesome!
This was a great video! Thanks for another one!
I use the Magnetic Monitor Mount top stick my phone to it and use it as a free webcam for Twitch streaming.
IKEA Skadis Monitor Stand is amazingly cheap and useful to me.
lmao link to the cable management boxes takes me to a girls pencil case
content always on fire.
I've ben using the lint roller for the last year or so. I feel so validated ! lol
Literally clicked subscribe after I heard “cuz I got so corgis” 😂 thanks for the great tips!!
I use a Razer Firefly mousepad - the hard side. It wipes clean with a damp cloth. A blower is only good for cleaning things outside, you should use a vacuum inside otherwise you're just blowing the dust and crap all around your room.
Na.. your use a blower to bright dust out from places and then a vacuum 😆
Lint roller for the Clutch!
Been doing the lint roller for ages now.
I was just wondering how to clean my mouse pads. Genius idea, thanks! :P
Note to others that may not know(no need to comment “I already know this”) if you use air duster or air blower like in video hold your fan blades when blowing them out. If you are blowing the dust off fans and let the fan blades spin they can ark and short your hardware
Make this a series!!
That's a great, cromulent tip with the roller. I wish I knew it 2 years ago when I smudged my mouse pad with floury hands
You should message the lady on twitter and give her a sensible % of earnings from the video
For tipp 2(foldable Magnet holder) maybe a 8.8 inch monitor underneath? I would try it!
Five great ideas. Thanks!
Those pens are sick too, the ones you put on the shelf, where can I get those?
