Today I wanted to talk about my computer setup at my desk. It is starting to really take shape and I am enjoying it.

The general devices are as follow:

  • Gaming/Workstation computer
  • Video/Audio capture computer
  • Monitor mount with 2 monitors attached. One monitor uses HDMI and the other uses DisplayPort
  • Portable HDMI Monitor
  • 3.5mm jack speakers
  • 3.5mm jack headphones
  • Wireless keyboard and wireless trackball
  • Tiny wireless keyboard/trackpad
  • Ethernet switch
  • USB webcam on a stand
  • Ring light
  • HDMI switch
  • HDMI audio extractor
  • HDMI splitter
  • USB HDMI capture
  • Nintendo Switch dock
  • Steam Deck dock

My capture setup

I will update this with more details, but it took me a lot longer to make the diagram than I would have liked. God bless!

Update 2024-05-04: This has to be redone, as a lot has changed and I had issues with signaling between all the displays and splitters.
