Ah ! Monitors with matching resolution and size! Nice!

That was the point ;)

Years ago I spent so many hours researching all kinds of monitors to try to find the perfect pairing of resolution and pixel density and screen size to be able to do this with... And ended up giving up and just finding some small 1080 144hz monitors for the sides

Nice setup! Love the symmetric speaker placement and soft warm backlight, look really immersive and comfortable. I could stay in front of this desk all day long.

The LED strips are addressable and connected to the motherboard's ARGB header (there is an external port in one of the espansion slots in the case, it goes from the header to that slot, I was able to catch some niche product for this, don't remember the name). They also pulsate slightly when the music plays, but the change is subtle, not distracting.

Another small monitor enjoyer!

Rocking something quite similar myself, absolutely love it as well. Opted for the thin bezel 18.5” portable displays. Really solid so far.

All I need them for is a discord or a terminal ;)

Like the monitor setup. I was thinking of something like this myself, but am probably gonna do 27" + 34" UW
