    Need a New Computer Desk!

    Hi all, all my PC stuff is getting moved into the attic so it's time for a new computer desk so has anyone got any recommendations?? Currently I'm looking at these two

    I really like the idea of having some rack mount space which will be handy but it also needs to be able to have room to do others things like make model kits and other hobby related stuff.

    How ever the big issue is that it also needs to fit through a 90cm x 50cm loft hatch!

    So let me know your thoughts peeps

    Ikea furniture is usually good value, for what it is. How about something like this?

    It's got cup-holders!!

    What about a literal "PC desk"?

    Or you can build something similar yourself for a fraction of the cost. It's not that complicated a design, just a deep desk + lid with the correct sized holes. You could butcher an old case for the mounts

    With something like a computer desk it's really personal preference and you just have to go to your local ikea and try them out! Everyone's room/preference is different

    I use a large dining table as my computer desk, big enough for my needs and fits my Haf X underneath too.
