More dust and dirt on the floor, it will need to be cleaned more frequently and will have a shorter lifespan.

Putting it on the ground increases the amount of dirt that gets in the cooler and therefore reduces the time between cleanings.

But other than that minor negative, I can't see anything wrong with putting it under a desk.

Holy Shit: balls intact

Not of this world: direct brainwave emf stimulation (mild electroshocks anyone)

I don't know shit: balls irradiated

PC compensates: balls still irradiated

Holy what: utilitarian and airflow (same as buying a grand piano as a frame holder)

Seriously, how fucking retarded do you have to be to put a PC right onto your table??? Vibrations from fans and direct, uninterrupted distance to your ears is just fucking crazy. And do you really want to feel those vibrations in your hands and fingers when you place them onto your table??

Only people who do this are people who spent thousand dollars ricing their PCs with lights and shit and need to show it off. These people are kids and manchildren.

Your PC should be under your desk. It should be lifted at least 6" of the floor so there's less dust. And it should be on base with felt or rubber feet.

Indeed. The pc pictured is precariously close to falling off the desk to the ground.

>feeling the vibration from your pc fans

What the fuck kind of fans are you using?
>>
>>57693367
>What the fuck kind of fans are you using?
good ones. but I can still feel the vibrations.
>>
>>57693295
You're the one acting like a manchild now. Unless you have shitty fans or case it won't bother you.
>>
>>57693367
It's more likely a shitty desk than fans being the problem
>>
>>57693412
Even the smallest amount of vibration can be easily felt through the table. And the smallest amount of noise as well because the PC is so damn close to you. Hell, even the slight 60Hz buzzing of the PSU can be head in a quiet room.
>>
>Not keeping the tower in another dimension for maximum safety
>>
>>57689309
PCs kept on the floor under the desk have a tendency to get accidentally kicked. Not super often, but at all is too much.

But really, it doesn't fucking matter. Put the PC where it works best for you, have the monitor layout that works best for you, disregard the sper/g/lords who say otherwise.
