Hey guys, I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right forum, but whatever lol. I have a fairly cool gaming setup, but the wires under my desk are very messy. I try to organize them, but it doesn't look clean to me. Any suggestion for keep my wires off the floor, not noticeable, and clean all at the same time ? I would supply a picture to show you my wire setup, but I don't know how to lol.

1. Use wireless peripherals when possible.
2. Only use a desk with a back panel.
3. Use tape to secure the wires along the backside of your desk.
There is also cable management boxes that you can buy for fairly cheap on Amazon to hide a surge protector and whatever you have plugged into it.

Take time and set it up properly, use cable ties, cable management boxes etc..
And as said above, A desk with a back panel helps, but mine isn't and mine still looks clean.

He explained it very well. There is so many different way to hide the cables or at least make it look nice and clean.

I just built a false bottom under one of my desks where I shove all the wires in. Is it the right way? No. Does it work? Hell yeah it does.

Taping wires together is dangerous. The wires create heat and can actually melt each other. After melting comes a fire.
