Is this desk really worth the money? I am considering on buying it for my gaming setup.

I love it. It does take some time to build and the directions can be a little confusing. The only thing I found is the lock that locks the middle drawer is not the best. But I use the desk since May of 2014 and have had no issues.

I use it for gaming / work and currently have 1 28" and 4 24" monitors on it and still have a whole desk on the one side, its cheaper than real wood, but its still mdf

I love my desk. We have a small business and it has so much space in and on it. I don't know why I didn't purchase one long ago...Its well worth the money. Very good quality and affordable! Well worth the money and time put into it!

I am using it as I type my response to you now. I absolutely love the desk, and the L-shape makes for terrific efficiency and convenience (I use both a work and personal computer and like them separate but close). I was hesitant because of its country of manufacture and low price but after delivery I was absolutely blown away by the quality of workmanship and easy assembly. It is stable, attractive, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes a clean, modern look in a computer work space. Kiss the dining table goodbye!

I'm not a hardcore gamer, so I can't answer from that point of view. I got this laptop for heavy duty computation, including CAD, software/simulation development, and photo/audio/video processing. The in-unit cooling is very effective and surprisingly quiet. Like you, I had initially considered a laptop cooler, but decided to wait. IMHO, it's not necessary. Maybe I'll use the money I saved to get some games!

Very stable and good for the money. I play games through steam. I do my school work through oracle. Does regular Microsoft office fine. It's a little heavy and big. The screen isn't high resolution. And it's not fast fast but gets the job done.400 bucks or just get a desktop for like 900 with dual monitors and be fully satisfied.

Yes, its still worth it, its still I awesome piece of hardware. I personally dont really use the game streaming feature a lot, but I love the attention it gets me in public. People are always like wow what are you playing on.

I was thinking of building one also and went with this one. I also bought this machine for BF4. I played the beta and I decided it wasn't worth it. I got BF Bad company 2 and it is considered the best BF still. I think if you want to do games on ultra and have it smooth you need to drop another $500 - $1000. Not worth it. High settings work just fine and I can buy a new video card and ram in a couple years and still have a great machine. I played through bio shock infanate and it looks incredible! I currently am playing watchdogs. This machine is VERY up to date and worth it. But Ultra setting is tough. Some people with $3000 machines have trouble. Ultra setting is all up to the game designer as it is equipment.

I didn't get the keyboard. I got the mouse, the mouse is worth the cost, but it also isn't a hundred bucks... I can''t speak for the keyboard. I am currently using the steelseries gaming keyboard, with the dedicated gaming zone on the left. It is pretty nice. It took some getting used to. Mostly because there are duplicates of many of the keys and everything is kind of jammed together. I like it now though.

It doesn't matter. This desk is a joke. It breaks as you assemble it. Invest another couple of dollars and get a descent desk. Trust me.

Ihave mine sinced 3 weeks ago, and NO problem, its great, i used it for games and its really good at it. Best pc for the price, trust me.

I haven't come across any problems with the mouse, and I honestly think that it does the job. It may not be the best gaming mouse out there, but it's definitely worth buying. Here's what I think about it: If you're into gaming, you really need a mouse, and are low on budget (like me), buy this mouse.

I love the computer desk. I have a full size asus tower. It fits just fine with room to spare.

I would say it's decent for gaming. I have loaded Star Wars:Empire at War and C&C Generals loaded on mine and thet play perfectly. Display runs at 1920x1080 without any problems. My only complaints is that the fan will run at full speed when playing and sounds like a jet engine

Not sure. Probably yes, but most likely decent means different things to me than it does to you. It seems to me that better options are available for gaming at this price point. I'm not a gamer, only a guess. YMMV

My son hasn't used it much but I don't think it will take a lot of weight. He isn't even putting a PCu on it. He has a lap top and a Microsoft surface pro 2 that he will be using on this desk. It is great for the price but not a super sturdy desk. I hope this helped

I'm not really sure my son uses it for his computer and has a few other things on it ! I can say its a very nice desk very sturdy only thing u have to watch is scratching the glass

I'm not in front of it right now but here's what I have in my desktop, I have two 22" monitors with no room for a keyboard so good thing for the slide out tray. The tray doesn't lock in place and I wish it would. I have a 3d printer sitting on the other side with my modem. Just enough space left over for scratch paper and a drink. I wish I had more space but this takes up entire corner of the room I have for it so it's the most I can fit into my area. In summary, a good desk if you have limited space, but if you have a lot of space I would go bigger.

Quite frankly I didn't buy mine for a gaming computer. I am a businessman who absolutely depends on his laptop. This is the most solid most rugged computer I have ever owned! It gets banged around from the boardroom to the flight deck and always works perfectly. And, when you need to do a killer presentation the sound quality is unsurpassed!
