So I am building a new gaming rig, so with that I decided I will build a desk to hold the big ass set up, so I decided to make one today, virtually... This is my first attempt at using sketch up so please give your thoughts!

This is what the area will look like with my desk there.

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

I custom made my desk, and from the look of your SketchUp thing yours isn't nearly deep enough, particularly near where the second monitor is. How many centimeters deep is it in that area?

Also, why not have the desk as an L shape against the wall? It would be infinitely easier to manage the cables rather than having to route them all under the desk to the side.
The second monitor will be against the wall, I will probably make all monitors level with my eyes. The desk is in the best position regarding lighting and anti-glare in my room.

Looks great! As long as the different level monitors doesn't bother you, go for it!

My monitors are up a level, and I can't tell you how nice it is! A small gap really helps because you have the ability to slide your keyboard under your monitors then you have a nice big space to work. :) I don't know if that is you're reasoning for it, but I really enjoy that.

And, perhaps a cup holder spot? To make sure you don't spill your drink. Plus, who doesn't love cup holders xD

I was actually considering a cup holder! & yeah the space under the big monitor is for storing stuff

This is more of a 90% angle square. An L would have one of the sides a bit longer for more space for say papers or other objects.
