Steps

1
Strip out the previous setup, replaster, and paint the room in flat gray with gray carpet.
2
Build the Flexispot E7 standing desk by slotting the frame together, dropping in the legs, and attaching the feet. Fit the black tabletop by aligning it with the frame holes and screwing it in.
3
Use plastic clips to keep cables out of sight and hide them inside the metal tray that comes with the desk.
4
Before flipping the desk up, attach Govee's neon rope lights using the clips that stick to the desk.
5
Install the ROG 27-inch OLED gaming monitor on an arm to save desk space and allow for better positioning.
6
Place the PlayStation 5 on the left side and add black console covers for a stealthy look.
7
Install a 1 TB NVMe SSD into the PlayStation 5 for additional internal storage.
8
Use the Ugreen Revodoc Max and Revodoc Pro docking stations for USB ports and connectivity.
9
Connect the SteelSeries Nova Pro headphones for audio, ensuring to choose the wired version for better sound quality.
10
Swap the standard PS5 DualSense controller with a Scuf controller for enhanced performance.
11
Place the Herman Miller Vantum chair in the setup, adjusting it for comfort.
12
Add a heavy-duty floor mat under the chair to protect the carpet.
13
Mount a framed piece of artwork from Frame a Game on the wall to enhance the setup's aesthetics.
14
Install ceiling lights for daytime brightness and arrange Govee's Glide hexagon light panels for a gaming vibe.
15
Review the entire setup to ensure everything is in place and functioning well.
