Computer Desk

[mtrotter12]

So I just signed up today to this community so hello everyone!

Well what I need is a new computer desk. I have a huge desktop PC the biggest one you can have. I would prefer to keep my computer underneath my desk because it's in my one bedroom apartment living room. Anyone have some good ideas? Thanks for any help!

And you posted in PC Gaming since this is going to be for a gaming computer right ?

Also, just what is the "biggest one you can have" supposed to mean ?
What case is it exactly, how much room you need ?

I'm assuming you're in the United States.

Were you planning to buy at a brick and mortar store, or buy online?

Yes US and probably online.

While an NZXT Khaos is certainly big, it's hardly "the biggest one you can have". It's only about 2' x 2' x 3/4' so basically you just need a desk that has a bottom surface at least ~28" or so off the floor.

So any ideas? All I have looked at aren't usually that deep or are way to cumbersome.

Ikea Galant is an awesome desk. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/S89807037/

I've heard their shipping cost can be high. if you don't have an Ikea nearby check craigslist.

It might be the most elegant desk, but it's dirt cheap, tall, and has room for lots of crap on top.
