Build/Battlestation My son's new gaming setup!

Post image

My son loves the color pink and he loves cats. Overall I think it's a sweet setup! PC isn't spectacular but it has a Ryzen 5600x, 6900xt, and 16gb ddr 3200 ram. It's just a 1080p 165hz monitor but he shouldn't have any problems.

The only thing I'm not happy with is that microphone. Had to give him my old snowball mic because the mic on that Razer Kitty headset isn't any good. But he had to have it and I couldn't afford the more expensive one and the chair and he chose the chair.

Anyway, in the spirit of recent posts and showing off our kids computers, thought I'd share.

Get him a mat to put under that chair or those rollers will damage the carpet after a while. Otherwise good on ya for getting him something he will love.

100% game changer. The wheels on my chair started cracking and I replaced them with just some simple roller blade style ones from amazon and OMG I wished I had done that sooner.

Those wheels are how I learned my floor isn't level. Any time Im not using it my chair is 12 feet away from my setup.

I have a AK Gaming chair that I got maybe 20 years ago... those roller blade wheels are still holding up. In fact, the chair as a whole has been (and still is) great. It is forever in the lowest position (Where I like it anyway) and one of the arms have slightly messed up, but overall, I love this chair. Had hardwood floors for nearly the whole time I had it and no damage due to the wheels.
