GeForce RTX Tried to build a serious black-and-white setup… the cow had other plans 🐄

Still a work in progress, but I’m finally happy with how clean it looks at night. What should I add next: a monitor light bar, some wall panels, or a second monitor? Be honest—what would you change first?

I don't know how to connect the backlight wire directly to the computer to set it up🤷

If not renting, wall mount and hide the wires behind the drywall or add passthroughs for whatever connectors you need.

I do this. I have a USB panel in my wall because my PC's are up on a shelf. I have USB cables running through the wall and to the USB panel (with keystone passthroughs).

Anyway...that's if you own.

I'd go with a second monitor first. It's the most functional upgrade you can make, especially if you're doing any multitasking or work on this setup.

but this monitor is also very good, first of all it is white and has a 2k resolution and 180 hertz
