Comment by addictedtopixelsNice rug, it really ties the room together!Comment by SituationSurprisingly cheaper than a mini blizzard statueComment by Shroomie88Price Tag: Super overpriced, there's a way cheaper desk from Swedish Furniture Company that does the job to :)Comment by ShadowflexI took the plunge a week before this article on the same desk, Akatsuki edition from Naruto. Yes, the desk costs a premium, but you get what you pay for 100%. $1600 hurt more than a little, but it was saved up disposable income and you can't take it with you. I spend the bulk of my time at my PC desk... at least 8 hours a day between work, gaming, and general connectivity stuff in everyday life. When I tell you the attention to detail in the packaging alone is IMMACULATE, it's still an understatement.

I'm obsessed with cable management. I used to route everything on the underside of my desks using double sided adhesive and C channels with 3m sticky backed rubber cable grommets for bends in the wire. Nothing I have ever done comes close to the innate capabilities of this desk. Having used it for a week at multiple heights, I can confirm that the previous sit stand problem of cable stretching is a non issue with this desk, even with my 5.1 surround cables from my Logitech subwoofer on the floor. The cables are routed up the back of the leg behind 2 of the magnetic sheathe facades.

Could I have bought a quality sit stand from VIVO with the PC mount and used aftermarket management under it for about 600 less? Absolutely.
Having chosen the Magnus Pro, would I enjoy it as much? I'm about 90% certain the answer is no, plus the VIVO pc mount BARELY had the specs to fit my Corsair Vengeance tower, while the Secretlab PC mount easily fit the tower with plenty of room to spare and had a higher weight limit. You just wont find the same overengineered quality of construction to house and hold your expensive PC setup with another brand.Comment by HalemsThat desk mat is sickComment by tonic316I took the plunge a week before this article on the same desk, Akatsuki edition from Naruto.
