Gaming desks are designed for gamers with unique features that enhance the gaming experience. Regular desks are designed for a single monitor or laptop, file storage options, or limited functionality for office work rather than gaming. Gaming tables are usually adjustable in height. Gaming tables may also include hooks to hold glasses, headphones, game consoles, etc. Playing video games can be physically demanding, even though you may be sitting for hours at a time. Since you don't stand up and walk around to stretch your muscles, sitting still for long periods of time can tire your body. You may experience pain very quickly.
