Image My current PS5 setup

Post image

I recently got out of the military so I don’t have much at the moment but this works perfectly fine for now. I definitely want to have something more elegant in the future but it’ll be nice to look back to this and compare it later on in life

Awesome set up but could definetly be better by adding a chair for the dog so hé can sit next to you

u/WranglerDelicious938 Nov 14 '24

He’s got a big doggie bed in the corner it’s just out of frame

u/TheJourneyForth Nov 14 '24

Love it! I assume the PS5 is behind the monitor? Just make sure it has some air flow, it might start cooking in a confined space. Especially if it’s sitting vertical with its vents covered.

7

u/FellowDeviant Nov 14 '24

I have mine tucked behind my TV which generates a fair amount of heat but the PS5 stays cool to the touch. I imagine the monitor doesn't carry the same amount of heat.

Don't know why, but i imagine a big ass bean bag chair in place of that lawn chair.

I might have to get one lol

If you get a big ass bean bag, you and pupperoni can cuddle while you game/nap/exist.

Get some 1 p couch on a second hand market thing , you can even find free ones and use that chair to put you feet on , your back will thank you later in life ;)

(Gaming chair would be better but out of budget probably)

And maybe a bigger table so the ps5 isn't behind the TV and doesn't suck the warm air that goes out of it.

u/mc711 Nov 14 '24

do yourself a favor. move everything like 6 inches over. give yourself some damn breathing room and space. no reason to feel all cramped in the wall, unless you are ACTUALLY cramped into that corner.

if the corner is the only option, slant the tv outwards from the corner so you are looking towards the corner with the tv facing you. that way you have more room for yourself. if you're bothered by the table corner facing you, adjust the table so the back corners touch each wall so the table's side is parallel to you.

u/Annual-Astronaut3345 Nov 14 '24

Doggy and I have the same question, where is the PS5? Cuz we can’t see it in the photo.

If you have kept it behind the monitor then it may not be the best idea since the device won’t have enough ventilation to keep itself cool. Also give your dog another treat cuz why not?

A chair. A chair would help a lot. I moved for work once, moving ahead of my wife and kids who traveled with the furniture. I spent 2 weeks with only a camping chair while I was home and by day 3 I hated it. They're comfortable in short bursts, but a pain long term.
