All that gear and no monitors?
Pro tip: Since you have your Push sitting past the keyboard, you can use a laptop stand to prop it up so it's easier to see and use. I got this one for 20 bucks and it fits pretty much perfectly
edit - just noticed someone else suggested something similar. Seriously though, it makes a world of difference if the Push isn't gonna be right in front of you on the table
I use this one. I like and it's sturdy. I have the 15 r3.
This one works pretty well and is also height adjustable

Most places I've seen people say coolers are just a bunch of bs and don't even work, and can even interfere with the air intake. You're better off getting something like this, so the laptop is some distance off the table with a mesh bottom, so better airflow.
The issue is the fact laptops don't usually have much clearance off the desk, so there is mnimial airflow. Raising it just an inch even, works wonders.

I am using, as I type this, the [AmazonBasics Ventilated Laptop Stand] (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00WRDS8H0/). Its very simple, very light and I saw a 10 degree difference vs having it on my lap.
I have the 15 R3 with a 1070 & 7820HK.
I don't recommend any stands with fans as the air intake on the bottom of my laptop takes air in. So the fans pushing air away might suffocate your laptop even more.
I wouldn't feel too bad about it. It's not the most personal gift in the world, but you weren't given a ton of information to work with. In the future, maybe send messages to ask about other interests and likes; you can even tell your giftee that you're good at fashion/costume design, and would he be interested in something like an -insert item you're able and willing to make here-?
For this year, the only other thing you might consider is sending a card or a note on redditgifts his way, suggesting some things he might like to buy with the Amazon giftcard, and that you weren't sure which one he'd find most useful in his life.
Here are some things you might suggest:
A waterproof bluetooth speaker
A laptop stand to prevent overheating when pulling long hours producing music
A cool looking USB hub, because he probably needs a lot of USB ports to do all that.
A sound recording pen, so that if he thinks of a good rap on the fly, he can record it and jot it down at the same time.
Or just a nice fountain pen, great for graphic designers.
Then, you've made some suggestions for what you think he'd like, but if he'd rather use it for something else, the ball is in his court.

Here is my setup
Thanks for watching! It’s a stand from Amazon Stand
I'm currently using this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00WRDS8H0/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . works really well and budget friendly. have just ordered a wooden one from https://cremacaffe.shop/ for it as well (mostly to try as it will fit my other synths too)
Just this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00WRDS8H0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'd have bought the official Mobilestudio Pro stand from Wacom but the fuckers don't sell any of the official accessories for it yet despite releasing the device back in November. Classic Wacom >__>
I bought the Amazon Basics stand, which I haven't seen mentioned around here. It works great and was really cheap.
I have a few of these, they work well for the money. AmazonBasics Ventilated Adjustable Laptop Stand https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WRDS8H0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_69zgzbHFQKQ6R
Book stacking is an okay alternative.
Keep in mind that investing to prevent neck issues early will be more cost-effective (my PCP's words, not mine) than taking care of your issues later on. We're going to be studying for a long time through med-school and onward, so it would probably be worthwhile to purchase a laptop stand and take care of yourself now.
I could recommend the following laptop stands, I have them both and they're pretty reasonably priced:
At any rate, whatever you end up doing I hope your neck pain resolves!
this laptop stand from amazon.
its got a little stopper on the bottom to stop your laptop from sliding off, but it gets in the way of typing at times.

Works perfectly!
No dock, just a laptop stand from Amazon. Used a standard thunderbolt to vga adapter to run the first and a usb to vga to run the second.
I like where you are heading. Could really take it to the next level with alaptop stand a dual monitor mount

I just built one out of 1.5" and 2" PVC pipe for about $60. The majority of it is 1.5" but I wanted the height to be adjustable so the lower sections of the legs are 2" that the 1.5" legs of the top portion slide into.
I mounted an AmazonBasics Ventilated Adjustable Laptop Stand to the two top crossbars which added another $20 to the cost, but you could definitely come up with a less expensive home-brew solution to this part. (I used a $5 cookie baking sheet while I was waiting for delivery of the laptop stand).
This is not glued together permanently yet as I am going to add some pieces to mount a small (~32") TV and Blu-ray player, but it is solid as it is. Been using it for a couple of weeks now.

so under neath my desktop on the left is just a keyboard box i have left over so dust doesnt get sucked in from the carpet so i have it raised above it. the stand is off of amazon basics i believe its this one https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Ventilated-Adjustable-Laptop-Stand/dp/B00WRDS8H0/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=laptop+stand&qid=1555780081&s=gateway&sr=8-3
I use this adjustable stand from Amazon, as well as an external keyboard and wireless mouse. If I don't use it, my neck really starts to hurt after a few days from looking down so much. I don't know how everyone else stands it (no pun intended).
When the client has crappy chairs, I bring a lumbar support cushion or a small pillow to help.
Get a good chair and make sure your computer is at eye level. If you use a laptop on a desk you need one of [these] (http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Ventilated-Adjustable-Laptop-Stand/dp/B00WRDS8H0/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1454047871&sr=8-3&keywords=laptop+stand)
Also your mouse and keyboard should be below the desk.
Look into ergonomics.

I have a Push 2, 88 key wighted piano midi keyboard, Moog Grandmother, 2i2, Cheap Mic and some instruments. Also a mouse and (qwerty) keyboard. A gaming mouse helps a lot for mixing and fine tuning. Id say get a cheap second hdmi monitor and have your studio monitors positioned so you can look at the monitor and hear perfect, then use the laptop as a second monitor to keep plugins/files open. Id recommend this stand for your push. (linked below) I had some other gear and got rid of it, really I just need the push, mouse, and (qwerty) keyboard. https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Ventilated-Adjustable-Laptop-Stand/dp/B00WRDS8H0/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=laptop+stand&qid=1555706074&s=gateway&sr=8-3
Omfg I completely forgot about raising the laptop. It's literally a g a m e c h a n g e r. I got the AmazonBasics Metal Monitor Stand and then a wireless keyboard. However, I saw that OP was on a budget so I can recommend an adjustable laptop stand like this or this.
this, for your Push, which is sitting so nice & so central. thank me later.
I use this one for my mbp and I definitely recommend!

Laptops get warm that is fine and even if the fans turn on don't get too worried over it. That's what they are there for. If it is getting hot and the fans are on more often than not, try raising your laptop so there is more ventilation under it.

Been pretty happy with it!
The (computer) monitor in the center is definitely better than having it off to one side. If you don’t use the (computer) keyboard much, it shouldn’t be a problem.
As for Maschine, you want it to be as comfortable to use as possible. I recommend putting it on this Amazon Basics laptop stand:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WRDS8H0
It’s cheap, but doesn’t feel cheap. It’s all metal and has decent rubber feet, and it doesn’t wobble or slide around at all when I’m banging on the pads or pushing buttons. The viewing angle is adjustable. One of the settings near the max angle (between about 30–35°) is pretty much perfect. The screens are very easy to read and I can use all the controls without arm fatigue. It makes a big difference not having to hunch over it to see what you’re doing, and if you’re mostly focused on the Maschine displays, you don’t have to look over at your monitor that much.
I think if you add that stand and get some speaker stands for your monitors, this setup should work pretty well.
Something like this?
Yes it is a Dell XPS 15. I use this amazonbasics stand:

What laptop is this? Even my XPS 15 (not a gaming laptop) doesn't get annoyingly hot or loud under gaming load. I have it propped up on an Amazon Basics Laptop Stand but that's more for ergonomics than for cooling purposes (I play with a separate keyboard and mouse).
It’s just an old cheap laptop stand, I don’t even know where I bought it.
It’s similar to the one On the link below:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00WRDS8H0/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1504149612&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=laptop+stand&dpPl=1&dpID=51f4TVyc9mL&ref=plSrch
They look great. I use a metal laptop stand that you can adjust the tilt on, it's very nice but has no wrist rest.

Yea, it is a pretty cheap one, my MBP2011 was the same and it was much quiter when it did...

For anyone trying to find something similar, after trying multiple stands, I finally found the stand provided by Amazon basics. It's great and the price is very good.

Look for folding baking racks at your local store that would have those sort of things. ;)

/u/X2C- Laptops need to be portable, so they cram everything as close together as possible. They still need to dissipate heat though - but its harder to do that in smaller space.
In larger desktop PCs you have room for good, large fan setups. This allows them to spin slower/quieter, as well as being able to handle higher temps easier. There's also plenty of airflow etc. This isn't the same for laptops.
Even top-tier laptops will be noisy when their fans are on - and the fans will be on as soon as anything remotely demanding starts up.
If the noise doesnt bother you, then you're fine, just keep playing. what i DO recommend though is that you get a few apps like CoreTemp and GPU-Z, which would allow you to keep an eye out on your CPU and GPU temperatures. This way you can see whether your cooling is enough, or if your PC is slowly overheating.
If you do notice that even despite heavy fans your temps are too high (90ish on CPU, for example), then i recommend looking at "Laptop cooling pads". These can be either passive (i.e. a giant metal heatsink you place under your laptop) or active (a "box with fans" that you plug into USB, and it helps cool the bottom side of your laptop), and provide your laptop with that extra bit of cooling it might need.
Hi! That is a pretty cool stand! I currently use this at my office and at my home to allow for ventilation on my laptop. I will consider getting a better stand.
In regards to the CPU Thermal Paste. I have changed the thermal paste on some 5 or 6 CPUs with no issue, but those were desktops, this would be the first time I do it on a laptop. That is why I'm asking for recommendations.
Wow you're awesome!
I'm gonna organize this list from most wanted to least wanted :D

Chiropractor here, you have the right idea with sitting up right as much as you can. However, placing the Surface at lap height and looking down is what is causing the neck pain. The posture you have described is what is being called "Text Neck" (http://imgur.com/OEEX3kE). As you flex your neck forward you increase the pressure on the components of you spine, the more you flex the greater the pressure.
Now I know you may prefer to sit while drawing? (Note: I have no artistic ability, so I'm guessing here) Sitting may be most comfortable but standing will also be beneficial as it helps maintain the strength and endurance of the spinal muscles (with correct posture)(http://imgur.com/KArIFT2). Also note sitting properly can maintain these muscles as well, again, with proper posture. (http://imgur.com/W1LIQQd)
A little anatomy for you: As you look downward you are actively flexing your superficial neck flexors, the most obvious being the sternocleidomastoid, or SCM. (http://imgur.com/yfQKBC2) This also causes the muscles at the base of your skull to shorten, which can lead to headaches. (http://imgur.com/xMHBRGj) Using the "Top Gun" or "Pilot Posture" this will help to lengthen the sub-occipital mucles (muscles at base of skull) and strengthen the deep neck flexors. (http://imgur.com/a0opmvv)
If you made it this far, I hope you have learned something. My suggestion would be, aside from posture would be to look into something that will bring the surface up closer to eye level to prevent stress on your neck. This may help (http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Ventilated-Adjustable-Laptop-Stand/dp/B00WRDS8H0/ref=sr_1_4?s=office-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1453221182&sr=1-4&keywords=laptop+stand). Next would be to do chin tuck exercises to maintain strength in those deep neck flexors, this exercise will help. (http://imgur.com/vE03lkI)

You should focus on the Graphics and Chipset drivers mainly, of course updating all te drivers once a year is always a good practice.
And as for the desk I can recomend you any of this 3 computer stands:
「Stand 1」 I use this one at home, it's a bit bulky, but it lets more air flow into the machine, you can even get a fan to blow some air into the bottom of the machine for better cooling.
「Stand 2」 I use this one at work, since it's al aluminium it helps to disperse the heat and I use no extra fan because my office has AC
「Stand 3」 I don't own this one, but it has a fan already built in and a USB hub wo you could use it as a docking station for your machine.
Amazon Basics has an adjustable laptop "pad" that I find is much better at cooling than the average usb fan pad despite lacking fans.

I just bought the Amazon Basics laptop stand.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WRDS8H0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_BmuTAbS4N5BH2
Works well for me.
Clean the desk up. Just spend 30-45 mins organizing everything. Maybe look into a monitor stand? Not sure what your budget is but:

I would recommend to get a laptop stand to prop up your laptop like a monitor then use an external keyboard and mouse with a wrist rest.
I use that wrist rest at my IT job and at home. Its probably the best I have ever used.
Honestly anything will work as long as it’s on an angle, I can see your on a budget so I chose the lower price but decent quality items. Though I personally would get the silver laptop stand as it’s much higher quality
I've put my minilogue and my drumbrute on one of these to great effect:

Do they really not help that much? The basic stand I am currently using is linked below but I still notice that when gaming that laptop occasionally runs a bit hot and one of the reasons I want to look into a cooling stands to potentially prevent any heat related damage since Final Fantasy 14 is a bit more intensive then Magic Arena or any of the other games I play on my laptop.

It definitely gets very hot and I wouldn't want to work with it on my lap, it's more of a desk-device. If you want a lap desk check Amazon Basics, they have some good ones at a decent price, this one for example.
I find this does the job just fine. https://www.amazon.co.uk/AmazonBasics-Ventilated-Adjustable-Laptop-Stand/dp/B00WRDS8H0
I'm actually looking at this one for weeks now.
It looks like it isn't getting enough airflow sitting level. I'd recommend keeping it propped up. If you're up to it, you can repaste the thermal compound and I'm sure you'll see a significant boost in thermals.
Edit: Or maybe consider purchasing something like this
What kind of laptop? Wheres the fan? things like this help. if the laptop has fans or vents on the bottom. Allowing it jet air out from it. But as some have pointed out. Laptops are designed to be compact computers. They are not made for quiet / cool devices.
The laptop stand is an [AmazonBasics Ventilated Adjustable Laptop Stand] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WRDS8H0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_juNgz9ZFcAZtz) with a custom built wooden riser underneath.
The dock is the D3100 but honestly isn't that great. I got to use a TB 16 during my internship this summer and it was far better.
I'm currently running 1920x1080@75 Hz (lower) and 1600x900@60Hz (upper) from HDMI and DisplayPort respectively.
Edit: FWIW the docking station I want is this one: Plugable Thunderbolt 3 Dock with Charging Compatible with MacBook Pro 2019 2018 2017 and Specific Windows Laptops (Supports DisplayPort or HDMI up to 4K 60, Gigabit Ethernet, Audio, 5 USB 3.0 Ports). It's just a little too expensive to justify.
Nggak mesti cooling pad, pokoknya ada clearance gap antara fan sama alasnya.
Sesuatu yangkayak gini. Nggak mesti se-extreme itu juga sih, 1-3cm clearance juga udah lebih dari cukup.Kalo emang laptopnya kepanasan banget, coba bersihin fannya, ganti thermal pastenya.
Masih kepanasan, coba undervolt CPU nya, 0.05V juga udah cukup.
Masih kepanasan juga? Lembiru (lempar ganti baru).
E: salah link. Mestinya yg ini, yg alas laptopnya ventilated, atau kalo nemu yg complete void gpp.
Not much. I am a writer and I use laptop for writing. I am thought of buying a laptop pad to improve the posture while sitting on a recliner, for that is this a good choice? https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Ventilated-Adjustable-Laptop-Stand/dp/B00WRDS8H0/

Grab a laptop stand for your computer. It’ll help your neck by keeping your monitors on the same level and it will look great!
Have you tried one of these
AmazonBasics Ventilated Adjustable Laptop Stand https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WRDS8H0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_CuJ3Ab802TJS2
I had an r4, bought it second hand with bad thermal issues. I put it in the shop to get the fans cleaned, fans oiled, cpu re-thermal pasted and then bought a laptop stand (like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00WRDS8H0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_vyhhDb3AAWE18)
This worked absolute wonders, I would recommend putting it in the shop to do the above, I’ve made about 7 PCs and consider myself pc savey- but it’s a long process - it even took the pc shop 3 hours to do, only charged me the agreed hour though.

I use it as a secondary monitor, though
I got my Cooler Master U3 Plus today and it looks like it the angle isn't too bad for typing. Somehow I got it for $30 new from Amazon (price is now $40).
So you can pay $20 for something like the Amazon Basics Adjustable Laptop stand https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Ventilated-Adjustable-Laptop-Stand/dp/B00WRDS8H0/ref=sr_1_9?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1473020359&sr=1-9&keywords=laptop+stnad
Or pay $30-35 for the Cooler Master Pro U3 (non-adjustable) and have fans+potential for modding. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834982206
I have a similar model, although it has a 2500u chip in it.
First thing I would do is make sure the BIOS is updated. Dell pushed out a lot of updates that addressed some of the teething issues. One of them involved fixing a performance drop back in November.

One thing I've noticed with this laptop is that it seems to suffer from lack of adequate cooling if you push everything to the max. Use something like hwinfo and check your temperatures. I haven't confirmed it myself, but you might need to turn off turbo boost so the GPU doesn't get throttled. I keep mine on a laptop stand for better ventilation.

Don't discount the dual-channel issue. It makes a big difference on Ryzen, especially since the GPU has to use it. I'd absolutely get a second stick and swap out that HDD for an SSD.
