If you’re the type of person who likes to fill your desk with gadgets until there’s barely room for a cup of coffee, take note: Corsair is about to release a new standing desk that’s right up your street.

The upcoming Corsair Platform:6 Modular Computer Desk is a six-foot wide monster that can be further extended and customized to meet the needs of gamers, creatives, and anyone needing a neat-and-tidy setup without having to cobble together a homemade solution.
