5 ULTIMATE Ways To Improve Your GAMING SETUP 2019! ???? | BEST Gaming SETUP HACKS 2019 (Simple Guide)
A messy desk and a laggy monitor can undo hours of practice before you even load into a match.
ProdiJay’s video “5 ULTIMATE Ways To Improve Your GAMING SETUP! 😱 | BEST Gaming SETUP HACKS (Simple Guide)” tackles the battlestation problems most gamers quietly live with — bad posture, tangled cables, and a monitor that just doesn’t cut it anymore. Rather than pushing a full teardown-and-rebuild, ProdiJay walks through five specific, budget-conscious fixes anyone can apply to their existing desk. The guide is built around function first, aesthetics second, with the two eventually meeting in the middle.
- ProdiJay recommends a gaming chair with adjustable height and proper back support as the first upgrade, framing it as a posture and performance issue rather than a cosmetic one.
- He sets a concrete monitor benchmark: a minimum 144Hz refresh rate paired with a response time under 5ms, plus a case for going bigger if the current display feels cramped.
- Cable management and LED ambient lighting round out the list, with the video suggesting cable ties or sleeves and RGB strips synced to a sound system for a more immersive setup.
The Chair Comes First
ProdiJay opens with the piece of gear nobody wants to spend money on but everyone eventually needs: the chair. His logic is simple — hours of seated play wreck posture long before a slow GPU wrecks a K/D ratio, so an adjustable-height chair with real lumbar support is the first line item on the list, not an afterthought. It’s the same instinct behind setups like the one broken down in This Gaming Seat took THREE DAYS to set up…, where getting the seating right took priority over everything else on the desk.
Chasing 144Hz
The monitor gets the most technical treatment in the guide. ProdiJay draws a hard line at 144Hz refresh and sub-5ms response time as the floor for smooth, competitive visuals, and argues that screen size matters almost as much as the numbers on the spec sheet — a bigger panel simply pulls a player deeper into the game world. That same hunt for a standout display shows up across the channel’s other monitor coverage, including the breakdown of the Samsung Odyssey G9 Monitor.
A good gaming chair will not only improve your posture but also increase your comfort and performance during long gaming sessions.
Lighting and Sound Working Together
Ambient lighting is where ProdiJay leans into atmosphere rather than raw performance. LED strips run behind the desk or monitor, customizable in color and pattern, are pitched as a way to set the mood for whatever’s on screen — and he specifically suggests syncing those lights with a sound setup, whether that’s a noise-canceling headset or a 2.1/5.1 surround system, so the room reacts to the game rather than just sitting there lit up.
The Cable Fix Nobody Skips Anymore
The last tip is the one with the biggest payoff for the least effort. ProdiJay treats cable management as a performance issue as much as a visual one, pointing out that tangled cords behind a desk can get in the way of quick equipment swaps mid-session. Cable ties or sleeves clean up the look and make it faster to find and reconnect gear, closing out a five-step list built entirely around getting more out of the setup someone already owns.
None of the five fixes require a full desk rebuild, which is the whole point — a better chair, a faster panel, some LED strips, decent audio, and cables that aren’t a mess cover almost every complaint gamers have about their own setups. ProdiJay frames it as a starting checklist, not a finished project, leaving the door open for viewers to tackle one item at a time instead of trying to overhaul everything in a weekend.
