Under the desk or on the desk?
And why?
>>
Under the desk. Short power cables and risk of falling.
>>
>>52345282
There is a downside to having a computer on the desk, and that is less room and more noise (in most situations). Under the desk or behind the desk gives more deskroom.
>>
>>52345282
For airflow on the desk
For sane people and the desk being usable as desk (work and not having to worry about spilling shit) it goes under
>>
>>52345282
under the desk on a little stand so i have more room for my displays and speakers and i dont have to worry about accidentally toppling it.

the only place where on the desk is more practical is in a lab or cubicle farm type venue where they are more prone to getting kicked plus the IT guys need to access them quickly and more ergonomically.
>>
Airflow shit says to avoid carpet floors for better circulation, so I guess that would effect my answer. I would usually put it under because I don't like the look of on top. The less cluttered/more organized my desk is the more psychologically and physically relaxed I can be.
>>
Besides the desk.
>>
all in one or laptop. this is 2016

>>52345282
tower pc : floor becuae there's no room for it
small pc : table because it's small

>>
On the desk, because fuck you.
>>
Inside one of the drawers. Drill holes for cabling
>>
I have a fractal design r4 and i put it on my desk.
My desk is a door on two sawhorses. No room for it on the floor and my floor is carpeted.
I'd love to put it on the floor.
>>
Desk. Less dust, more easily accessible.
>>
I have a fuck huge desk so I keep mine on it.

pic of this nigger setup please
>>
>>52346340
This. Put the case parallel to the wall, now you can reach audio and usb ports, optical drives and you open the case at any time.
>>
Why has nobody mentioned that having a huge desktop on your desk makes your microphone both vibrate and pick up your fans? I bought a microphone so that I didn't have a buzzing, vibrating sound in my audo. Wouldn't having the computer on top defeat the point lf this?

>>
>>52346418
>>52346318

Yes...Pics if these please. Do it for posterity.
>>
On the little stand next to the desk so the tower isn't out in the open or on your desk but neither touching the floor for good air flow.
>>
>>52345282
On the desk just incase something has to go wrong and I'm force to break out my Anti-Shock bracelet in order to do work.
>>
>>52345381
Where can I buy this or similar?
>>
>>52346829
Not if you have your mic on an arm in a shock mount or whatever they're called in English.
>>
>>52346829
I think a decent microphone will not pick up the Computer fans.
>>
So I have actually always put mine under the desk until someone on /g/ asked me why the fuck I do that.

I didn't really question it up to that point, I just did it how my parents used to do it.
I thought that person on /g/ was obviously right -> if you have enough space, putting them on the desk is better. It is obviously less dirty on the desk, that means you won't have to clean the computer as often. You also have an easier time doing regular cleaning under your desk because nothing gets in the way. The most importnat thing however is it's also super compfy if you want to work on the machine or just plug/unplug cables and it's not a pain in the ass to put cables behind the desk.

When it comes to noise:
I use none of my Computers to play games that make it run loud, I use it to brows, watch shit, manage files, write shit and sometimes to draw shit. I also use one for video cutting but it is only loud when it is rendering or converting files, even then it is not crazy loud and I don't think it would be a lot different if I where to put in under the desk.

When it comes to aesthetics:
I honestly don't have a problem to go full cyberpunk distopia and be surrounded with zip tied cable bundels everywhere.

Computer goes on it's own table to the right of the desk.
Wouldn't want to take up desk space or leg room.

>>52351148
I thought about that too.
The case needs to be closed up and also needs cable Management. Then if could look nice.

It's the sort of kitchen paper they use in the kitchens of restaurants and stuff, one roll lasts me half a year.

really nice temp management, but dust management has to be a pain in the dick m8, I hope you clean it weekly

On desk. Always on desk.

Under desk is a fucking dust magnet no matter how clean your room is just because of how dirt gets kicked up when you open doors or when the AC turns on.

Under, unless you're some gaymer child that wants to show off his riced-out "gaming rig". In which case, grow the fuck up.
>>
>>52345282
it depends on the size of the desk, really

I have a mATX rig that sits on the far right, short side of my L desk because I don't like having it on my carpet and it's easier to access connections if it's on top of the desk. Don't have to climb under to fiddle with anything
