The festive season is the perfect time to refresh your gaming or work setup, and what better way to do that than with a touch of Christmas magic? Whether you’re looking to add a splash of colour, improve your performance, or simply give your PC a seasonal makeover, there are plenty of ways to make your setup sparkle this Christmas. Here are some ideas to help you create the ultimate festive workspace.
Add Some Festive Lighting
No Christmas is complete without twinkling lights, so why not bring that same magic to your setup? With RGB lighting from brands like Corsair, you can easily customise your PC, keyboard, and even your mouse to create the perfect Christmas glow. Choose from warm reds, greens, and golds, or opt for frosty blues and whites to evoke a winter wonderland.
Or you can take the approach of adding Christmas lights to your set up we would recommend incandescent lights to get that warm Christmas glow!
If you’re using Corsair’s iCUE software, you can sync the lighting across all your devices, creating a seamless and immersive experience. Set the mood with festive effects like snowfall or Christmas tree animations to make your workspace feel truly magical.
Upgrade Your Peripherals
Christmas is the perfect time to treat yourself, and what better gift than a new set of peripherals? From mechanical keyboards with vibrant RGB lighting to high-performance gaming mice, there are plenty of options to make your setup look and feel amazing. Treat yourself to a new headset or a stylish mouse mat to complete the look.
You can get peripherals at our > Gear Store < this Christmas.
When choosing a keyboard, look for one with a smooth, quiet typing experience, or if you like the sound of your keyboards go for a mechanical one instead! If you’re after an even more immersive experience, consider upgrading to a gaming headset with built-in surround sound so you can hear all the festive cheer!
Personalise Your Setup
Give your workspace a personal touch to make it feel even more festive. Custom skins, themed desk mats, or fun holiday decorations are all great ways to make your setup uniquely yours.
Even just covering your PC in tinsel works just to add that festive flare!
Consider a desk mat with a festive design or add a couple of Christmas ornaments to your space. It’s all about creating an environment where you can relax and enjoy the holiday season.
Boost Your Performance
Christmas is also a great time to make sure your setup is running at its best. Whether you’re working from home or gaming with friends, you’ll want to ensure your PC is up to the task. Consider upgrading your components for a performance boost. A new graphics card or processor can give your PC the power it needs to run the latest games, while additional RAM or a faster SSD can improve load times and overall performance.

Go for a Clean Look
A tidy workspace can make a world of difference. Take some time this Christmas to declutter your desk and organise your setup for a sleek, minimalist look. Cable management kits can help you hide any messy wires, giving your setup a polished, professional appearance.
Don’t Forget About Sound
Your setup isn’t complete without great sound, especially over Christmas. Consider upgrading your speakers or gaming headset to improve your audio experience. If you love listening to Christmas tunes while you work or game, clear, high-quality sound is a must. Look for speakers or headsets that provide rich, immersive sound to make the most of your festive playlists.
