Computer Tools & Setup

A complete breakdown of my desk setup, peripherals, and PC build—everything I use for editing, gaming, and creating content.

I organize my computer setup just like my camera kit: it’s minimal, reliable, and built for performance.

My current build centers on a strong GPU and fast storage, so I can edit, grade, and render smoothly without slowdowns.

Below is a detailed list of the components and peripherals in my setup. I’ve refined the core parts, desk layout, and accessories over time. After finding what worked, I made only small upgrades to keep up with new tech. Check back for updates.
