Powerful computer, good large monitor, quiet wireless mouse and keyboard.

We spend so much time in front of a screen, but it’s easy to stay with old tech as it still work and do the same thing, but quality and speed matter. An improvement of a few percent pay for itself many times.

Choosing the best with what you work with will push you to also be the best at what you do, it serve as a yardstick to measure your work.

Same here, my best investment last year was upgrading from a 2017 i7 laptop (with no GPU), to a 2022 desktop with a GeForce RTX 3080 GPU and my productivity difference is like night and day, wish I had upgraded sooner.

I ended up getting two Dell 30" 4K displays and a monitor stand to mount one above the other, next to my laptops (also stacked), and that's been a pretty nice work setup for the past year. I did have to end up doing two USB-C to HDMI adapters plugged into the laptop to drive them, the docking station can't do dual 4K output (older Dell XPS15, sounds like the next version they made of it does).

>quiet wireless mouse and keyboard

Which models did you buy? I am looking over 2 months now with unlimited budget and have no luck.

Keyboard:

* standard US layout

* should be really quiet for my night sessions

* available in EU

Mouse:

* big size

* standard 3 buttons and wheel

* quiet clicking and scrolling

I have currently Microsoft Sculpt Keyboard (still working but worn out) and Logitech M330 (too small).

I just bought this and I don’t know why I didn’t do it sooner.

The dept of the key is a bit too much (I am used to the mac keyboard) but both the keyboard and mouse it’s really quiet and smooth.

The mouse is quite small but has ergonomic shape.
