Desktop Bifrost Elite 160 review

In the words of The Dude, it really ties the room together, man. The Bifrost Elite 160 height adjustable desk has kinda completed my new home gaming station and. For a man seemingly incapable of creating a non-cluttered work and gaming space (just ask Jacob, who has been working with me for the best part of a decade), it's also keeping me fastidiously tidy. 

Who knew tight cable management, some monitor mounts, and a couple wee shelves could do that to a notoriously untidy middle-aged man, but here I am with a pristine desktop where just my keyboard, mouse, mic, and phone exist. And it feels good. 

It's actually even making me think it might be worth tidying up my office desktop in PCG Towers, too. But that might be a change too far, and I don't think I can become that much of a better person in one fell swoop.

But such changes of character don't come cheap, and the Bifrost Elite 160 is a behemoth of a desk with a similar design ethos to the Corsair Platform:6, and a price that, while not quite so eye-wateringly high, is still going to sting. For the full configuration I've been testing—with a bunch of accessories marking a genuine quality of life upgrade—you're looking at $1,140.

Dimensions: 63 x 28.3 x 50.4 ~ 76 inches (160 x 71.9 x 128 ~ 193 cm)
Height adjustment: 25.6 — 51.2 inches (65 — 130 cm)
Load capacity: 264.6 lbs (120 kg)
Materials: Wood Fiberboard (MDF), Steel, ABS Plastic, Aluminum, Felt
Controller: Height display, 4x memory slots
Collision detection: Yes
Price: $900 (with reviewed accessories — $1,140)

That's around the same sort of price as the mega desk of our dreams, the mighty Secretlab Magnus Pro XL, our current pick as the best gaming desk. Which does give the Dezctop desktop a bit of a problem. While it can claim to be similar, but far cheaper than the Corsair Platform:6, with all its accessories it's an effective price match to the Secretlab and honestly does suffer by comparison.

Don't get me wrong, I am impressed by the Bifrost Elite 160, and am
