    Standing Desk recommendation

    WFH for too long with a cheap chair left me with back pain, so I had to go on a similar journey recently to look for a standing desk. That's how I stumbled upon this thread. After looking at a bunch of different options, I eventually narrowed it down to Deskstand's TekDesk 2.0 and a Clever...

    TV Mounting Brackets

    Thanks for the advice. I'm leaning towards the Ellies one, simply because the only Barkan bracket that I can find that can tilt and swivel with a sufficiently long arm is a much fancier one at about 3x the price of the Ellies one in my first post.:crying:

    TV Mounting Brackets

    Hi folks, I want to mount my 43" TV, and I'm undecided on which bracket to go with. There's a power outlet right above the centre of the TV cabinet, so I don't want to mount the thing in the middle because I don't know where in the wall the wiring runs. I'd rather mount it off to the side...

    Buying a new screen - TN vs. IPS

    I ended up not buying anything on Black Friday, as the reviews on the Dell TN panel weren't great. Any thoughts on this Asus - https://www.asus.com/za/Monitors/VP279QGL/? I'm struggling to find reviews on the 75hz variant.

    Buying a new screen - TN vs. IPS

    Is the impact of refresh rate actually noticable, in the real world, when comparing a 60hz monitor to a 120hz monitor? I'm leaning towards the TN panel Dell screen, although it is more expensive than the 27" IPS one.

    Buying a new screen - TN vs. IPS

    Hi folks, I'm in the market for a new monitor and I need some advice. I currently have a cheap-ish Samsung 22" monitor - it's great if you look at it dead center, but not so great otherwise (viewing angles). Consequently, my desk has a pile of magazines on it to raise my monitor and that's...

    Budget friendly small notebook

    That would definitely be preferable. Are there any 13" or smaller notebooks with an i3 in that price range though? I couldn't find anything when I looked.

    Budget friendly small notebook

    Raru has them for under R5k, and I’ve seen cheaper prices come up on a few sites as well - not entirely sure how they were specced though. https://raru.co.za/electronics/7021479-lenovo-ideapad-s130-n4000-4gb-ram-64gb-emmc-11-6-inch-hd-notebook-black

    Budget Gaming PC

    I had a great experience when I bought a new PC from Wootware (https://www.wootware.co.za) recently. If you give them your budget, I'm sure they'll help you to put something decent together.

    Budget friendly small notebook

    Hi folks, I've been computer shopping for a while, and I eventually ended up buying myself a proper gaming PC for home. However, I'm still looking for a laptop to use on-the-go - mainly for presentations, documents, and occasionally a bit of development (home PC will be primary system for that...
