Synthwave Desktop
This desktop is actually a second screen customized with a couple of elements that really fit the theme and give us a dose of 80s nostalgia. The main display uses the same desktop, but it’s worth talking about. Here’s what you’ll need to look the same.
Like many Windows desktops set up this way, Rainmeter is the tool of the day. We’ve got a guide on how to use it , and once you’ve grasped the basics, you’re ready to move on.
Here’s what you need:
- Wallpaper
- Tool setting and monitoring system for Rainmeter for Windows
- Monstercat Visualizer for Rainmeter
- Rainmeter Skin for Calendar and Clock
That’s all there is to know about it. There are only three components, one of which is wallpaper. Since the above snapshot is only the second configured screen, here is a snapshot of the full dual display below:
