You deserve so many more subscribers! I've primarily been a Windows user for 16 years and haven't used a Mac as my main machine since about 10.5 Leopard. It's been so long that Mac OS now feels foreign to me. However, your stellar content has helped me make the switch to Mac full time again and feel more confident in doing so. Your videos are well written, well researched, unbiased, and welcoming, and is why I recommend your channel to anyone needing to learn anything Mac. Your video on how to setup a new MacBook has been wonderful; I'll be referencing that when my M1 comes in the mail. I thought that I knew enough being a computer science student, but your videos always teach me something new! Thanks for being awesome.
This is what people should call a really minimalist setup! Definitely nothing else other than what you need … I would probably hide the power cable in the bottom of the desk, but other that that, it is beautiful!!!
Great video as usual. I like how you do your videos. You get right to the point w/o any unnecessary goofy video introductions which do nothing but waste my time. I thank you for that.
I really do enjoy the amount of honesty I get from these videos. I didn't think I would be saying this, but most tech channels are not straight shooters like this! Love the channel!
I've started to subscribe your channel from only days ago but I truly love all of your videos! I really can't stop myself to watch each of them and all of them really do give me useful and worthy informations Impressed by your deep insight of new MacBook Air M2 and also delighted to see your lovely cat! I'm sincerely appreciated your precious views you suggest to us. it barely happens to me to watch videos so interestingly with English subtitles since I'm non English native haha but it's so big pleasure me to dig into each of your videos! Thanks again! Wish you have great days with your adorable cats and I'll keep look forward to watch your videos! Big support from Korea
You can mount the PC below the desk via some brackets, and use the LG Ultrawide Split Screen monitor which will allow you to connect both Windows and Mac simultaneously. You'll still end up with that same clean desk.
I bought a M1 Macbook with my Savings, and I want to recreate this Setup! This would be my way to have a Desk because this way I can focus on what is important!
I want a sit / stand desk but it needs to be a specific size, so I'll be looking forward to your video about it. I didn't know you could buy just the frames for them.
Hey! Just a suggestion: would love to see a video of software you use on a daily basis on your Mac! For example, I was curious what your opinion was on “maintenance” software, like Clean My Mac for example. I’m hesitant to buy software like that because I’m not sure if it’s really necessary, especially on a brand new M1 MacBook. I haven’t used a Mac in ages so I’m pretty much a beginner. Cheers!
What resolution do you get on that monitor? That is not very good ... my 27-inch iMac has 5120 x 2880 res ... and it really makes a difference ... that 1440 vertical res is half that which means web pages do not display very well, or video.
Dell ultrawides are the best. I got 3 of them with my Windows desktop machine. Although Mac mini looks great, it just doesn't have the power that I need. I chew up even 16GB of RAM fairly easily. 8GB on MBA M1 is fine since its not my main machine, but I think 32GB is really the minimum for my main machine. Currently using 17.3GB of system RAM and GPU also using 3.4GB of dedicated VRAM. So even 16GB of shared RAM would very likely not be enough for me 😂 And BTW this is without any games or video encoding running in the background. I'm just a heavy multitasker...
This is really looking great and a bit diferent than every other RUclipsr "dream 2021 productivity desk setup (tm)" ! However, the desk placement does not seem ideal vs the window which cause glare. I'd try with the desk against the window side so you sit in front of the window.
Great video! I just subscribed to your channel. Keep up the good work! By the way, can you share a link to the chair used in this video as a reply to my comment? Thanks in advance for the assistance.
Very nice setup! I already bought most of the stuff you recommended, but I have one slight problem. I am using a MacBook Air and don't know where to put it, as I don't want anything else other than the monitor on the desk. Do you have any ideas? Thanks.
Best thing I can recommend is a vertical stand. It has a very low footprint so doesn't take up much room. We sell one on our store, but feel free to grab one elsewhere: geni.us/vstand
can't wait to see how you add the gaming pc. Do you feel like you are wasting a 3080 with that particular 60Hz display? why not the LG 38" 38GN950-B 144hz?
I have a proper 144hz 27" 1ms gaming monitor, although I gave up gaming a few weeks ago. It wasted too much of my time. The 3080 is still great for editing however, which is a huge part of my daily life so still worth the investment for me!
Will this monitor work with the Mac Mini using the USB C port like you were using it with your MacBook? I have a Dell UHD screen and want to know this before I order a Mini? Thanks
Hii!! Tanks for your amazing videos, I love your content :) Why you now use a Benq light and before you recomend a Baseus light. I gonna by one of them and i don't know if is worthwhile the extra money for the Benq. Thanks!!
BenQ is a higher quality light, it works slightly better than the budget Baseus one (e.g. auto turns off and on better). They're honestly pretty similar, but if you have the budget get the BenQ.
no external gpu, no external storage that has raid 5 redundant capability for video assets, no height adjustable desk, the only one spotting-point is , you have lcd illumination lamp, single LCD monitor is not enough for me, but MacOS has easy to switch virtual desktop by 3 fingers, maybe it's okay
I have BenQ Screenbar and 38 Curved Thunderbolt 3 LG Monitor so how did you wake the Screenbar while waking the monitor? Did you plug the USB for the Screenbar to the back of the monitor or to the Mac Mini? (I have Mac Mini M1). My Screenbar is currently plugged into the back of the LG Monitor USB port. hmm...

I want this desk setup for my work so badly. This is dope.
Great video as usual. I like how you do your videos. You get right to the point w/o any unnecessary goofy video introductions which do nothing but waste my time. I thank you for that.
The best thing about this setup is that it saves a plenty of space on the desk.
I really do enjoy the amount of honesty I get from these videos. I didn't think I would be saying this, but most tech channels are not straight shooters like this! Love the channel!
Wow. This setup is just too awesome. Minimalism in all its awesomeness! ✌🏼

Yes looking forward to the video about the IKEA desk making/staining process!
I ain't never seen a desk this clean
Im on my way on building a setup EXACTLY like this, i love minimalism.
You can mount the PC below the desk via some brackets, and use the LG Ultrawide Split Screen monitor which will allow you to connect both Windows and Mac simultaneously. You'll still end up with that same clean desk.
I am also interested in the IKEA desk making/staining process as well. Great video by the way!
Wow nice setup very minimalistic and aesthetic i should have upgraded to standing desk. Underrated video content you have
I bought a M1 Macbook with my Savings, and I want to recreate this Setup! This would be my way to have a Desk because this way I can focus on what is important!
I love your cat 🥰. And this is a nice spartan setup, I share the idea about if it doesn't serve a function it doesn't belong on my desk.
minimalistic and clean
You left our your chair. What kind of chair is it?
Man, thanks for the idea with the Mac mini mount. I did the same thing you did and it works out great. Nice and clean!
Hi!
I just wanted to say that I love your videos!
Very nice setup
This is the desk I sincerely want.
Once again another great video
Wow, 100k subs!, in less than a year. Congrats!!
I want a sit / stand desk but it needs to be a specific size, so I'll be looking forward to your video about it. I didn't know you could buy just the frames for them.
In Ikea you can buy just frames with engines and in some hobby market ask to make specific desk.
@@martincerny8106 I have searched around and think I found one that would fit. But I'll take a look in the IKEA website too when I have a moment.
No plant= no like!
Looks good. was baffled when you only had power and hdmi cable into the mini. i have every slot plugged in mine.
Pretty cool setup
Nice setup!

Hey mate! Chair?
So awesome!
Did someone notice his windows? I love big size windows for sunlight! Good video and I like minimalist setup!
What’s the chair?
What kind of chair?
Dope setup!
Please talk in your next video about the pros and cons of the monitor. Btw what is the name of the chair in your video?
it looks KEOOL

Hey, what chair do u use? :)
I like how you always show your chin to the camera

i love this minmal setup !!!
Like your setup! Will you introduce your in-use chair?
Chair name?
How did you mount the Mac mini under the desk? Did you drill into the table?
Drop the desk stain video 🔥
I want this exact setup. ❤️
It is amazing! What is the model of that chair and monitor?
this setup is awesome.
this mans really just said plants don’t bring him joy put him on a watch list!!! 🤣
I had the same reaction ... he has no soul.
cool Video! Thanks
really digging this my man
I love this setup thanks for sharing
Great video. Would be neat to watch how to run all the wiring and set up monitor stands
Can u make a minimal macbook air desktop setup?
Hi great setup love it! The monitor mount you linked is gloss is there a matt version of this?
That's ya mum's monitor. Haha man takes me back to when my mum got like a beefy hand me down desktop for Spotify and Facebook haha
I agree with you that the new keyboard feels cheaper!
How did you get a magic keyboard with touch id separately from the imac?
I’d really like to know as well!!
@@nverkhachoyan There are probably 3rd party seller like on eBay that might be selling
Great Video, full of ideas to inspire, however, I miss a webcam for Facetime/Zoom, do you have any recommendations that might be minimalistic as well?
Logitech Brio looks very good.
Great video! I just subscribed to your channel. Keep up the good work! By the way, can you share a link to the chair used in this video as a reply to my comment? Thanks in advance for the assistance.
I so hope Apple release the Touch ID magic keyboard as a separate item so it can be used with the Mac mini. 🤞🏼
It's not?
@@justgivemethetruth They have and I have bought one, very happy 😃
Thank you
wtf where do you live that window view is so damn nice

All I’ve done lately was add some coasters to my desk
I ordered the same mount you have. But it’s saying can support up to 32in. I have a 35in LG ultra wide. Can the mount support that monitor?
Love it! Hey I've got the same Ikea top that's natural still. What color did you stain it, I was thinking of doing the same! Thanks in advance!
Just wondering what ikea table top did you get?
Beautiful!
02:14 hi! whats the ipad stand?
your monitor is great but i think lg 38inch thunderbolt is better
Hi! Thank you so much for this video. Could you please tell us what are the dimensions of your desk? They seem ideal 🙏
nice video!
Will this monitor work with the Mac Mini using the USB C port like you were using it with your MacBook? I have a Dell UHD screen and want to know this before I order a Mini? Thanks
Hi there I have a question . Does it heat up when using the second monitor for M1 Mac Air or Mac Mini?
Nice video, nice setup but the mic did clip a lot. Bit lower gain next time pls

Serial killer in the making
I couldn't find the monitor arm in Amazon UK, can you tell me the exact model number please?
Hey! Will that have an effect on Mac Mini's performance if it was placed upside down?
Awesome 👌
Really nice setup
what is the name of the tabletop from ikea and i am trying to get the same kind. thanks!
Really going Marie Kondo with the Mac setups eh?
no external gpu, no external storage that has raid 5 redundant capability for video assets, no height adjustable desk, the only one spotting-point is , you have lcd illumination lamp, single LCD monitor is not enough for me, but MacOS has easy to switch virtual desktop by 3 fingers, maybe it's okay
what was the iphone/ipad stand you had at the beginning?
i wonder if the Lightbar doesnt reflect on the Screen, or make the quality worse.
What brand of adjustable desk frame did you buy?
I have BenQ Screenbar and 38 Curved Thunderbolt 3 LG Monitor so how did you wake the Screenbar while waking the monitor? Did you plug the USB for the Screenbar to the back of the monitor or to the Mac Mini? (I have Mac Mini M1). My Screenbar is currently plugged into the back of the LG Monitor USB port. hmm...
Plugged into the monitor. It wakes with my Dell monitors but does not on my LG monitors
ultra wide is the way
does the mini have to be upside down?
Great setup! Could you please link the Wallpaper? Is awesome!
Thanks a lot :)
Standard wallpaper of Mac computers
What’s the length of that table? Is it about 60cm?
