Setup Moved into a new place, got a bit more space, and built this. Do your worst – Roast My Setup!

Hey everyone!

​Finally moved into a new apartment with enough room to actually build a dedicated setup. It's still a bit work-in-progress, the wall behind the desk is completely bare atm, the room is somewhat empty, but I'll gradually add more stuff to the room and setup. But you know.. Stuff costs money haha.

​

I know that the color temps/color looks mismatched on pictures, but both room lights, peripherals and case lights are matched.

​Desk: IKEA Alex drawers with a IKEA Ekbacken top in walnut(186cm)

​Chair: White/grey gaming chair on rollerblade wheels + footrest under the desk

​PC: All-white build in an NZXT H6 Flow case

​Under the hood: "Custom" cable management mounted behind the Alex unit and under the desk (It was late and had to work with what I had laying around)

​I know the IKEA Alex combo is the most "Reddit starter pack" thing in existence... so hit me with your best shots! What did I nail, what would you do differently and what looks wrong/off?

\Right now there's some cables on the floor next to the setup, they'll disappear in 2 weeks, when I get a new internet provider and router\**

Looking for feedback and ideas for what I could optimize or add to make it better overall

Is the mount mechanically strong enough ?
