What pushed me to rethink my whole setup was a mix of longer streaming sessions and the fact that my shoulders and wrists felt wrecked after every weekend
I went down that same road but from a slightly different angle because my issue wasn’t pain at first, it was fatigue and focus dropping during longer gaming nights, and after tweaking everything else I realized the desk itself was limiting how I moved; I didn’t want a generic option, so I looked for something that let me customize size, frame strength, and layout around my gear, and that’s how I ended up using a standing gaming desk from as my reference point when building my setup; what helped was being able to match the desk width to multiple monitors and a heavy mic arm without wobble, while the motorized frame handled height changes smoothly enough that it didn’t distract mid-stream; a big tip I’d give is to plan cable routing before you assemble anything, especially if you switch between sitting and standing, and to save height presets for different footwear or barefoot sessions; another thing people overlook is camera angle, since standing gaming desk slightly higher can actually improve framing and presence if your desk allows fine adjustments; over time, switching positions between matches kept my energy steadier and made longer sessions feel less draining, not because it boosted skill magically, but because my body wasn’t fighting the setup anymore.
